Michael Da Vinci Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We was bangin' out some Masta P, on the road
I prefer my word with platinum teeth, maybe gold
They don't like it when you come direct, well fuck, but Spottie bold
Tell them hoes they better come correct, cause I fuck
My momma told me we no 'ceptin' any memberships, no adding losses
I won't step up in your dealership until I'm flossin'
We no flexy with the funk, add a blessing to that punk
I've been spittin' like it's crack or some, like since the 80's
I was born I think in '91, that mean I'm chosen
When I slide back through your hood, bitch, just have a frozen, bitch
Yeah, Goddamn, feel like I'm Brad Jordan
Goddamn, I'm in, feel like I'm Brad Jordan
Scarface somethin', like I'm Brad Jordan
Feel like I'm the fuckin', feel like I'm Brad Jordan
Two dopeboys in a busted-ass rental
In Houston, OPM on them pussy ass niggas
Feel like I'm Brad Jordan
Now you would think I work from South Park, grindin', always makin' trouble
Grippin', on another level, mothafucka
I feel like droppin' classics, like a [?]
And rappers be too passive
It's just me, my brother Spottie, bitch, sit low
I've been drinkin' since my momma called, around 4
Niggas asking me too many questions, fuckin' throwed
Ride Da Vinci, Mike, December we was losing, now we winnin'
Can I sport a couple in this, play for bucks that Brandon Jennings
Wear your crown and your pocket, or that shit'll come up missin'
You that nigga but the misses, eat a dick and mind ya business
This for all my Eastside niggas who be eating, do no sleeping
For their seedlin', never go to parties even if it is the weekend
Shout-out to the women who be faithful to their pimpin'
And shout-out to them haters who be all up in their feelins
And shout-out to my daddy, I'mma buy your ass a Bentley
Yeah, Goddamn, feel like I'm Brad Jordan
Goddamn, I'm in, feel like I'm Brad Jordan
Scarface somethin', like I'm Brad Jordan
Feel like I'm the fuckin', feel like I'm Brad Jordan
Two dopeboys in a busted-ass rental
In Houston, OPM on them pussy ass niggas
Feel like I'm Brad Jordan
Now you would think I work from South Park, grindin', always makin' trouble
Grippin', on another level, mothafucka
I feel like droppin' classics, like a [?]
And rappers be too passive
A bunch of bustas
I'm on everybody's asses, and this the notice
And I ain't even tryin', ho, did you notice?
And this the standard, fuckin' bogus
You fuckin' rappers
In Michael Da Vinci's song Brad Jordan, the opening lines paint a picture of the rapper with his friend Mikey D, getting high and listening to Masta P while on the road. He mentions that he likes his "word" with platinum teeth or gold, a possible reference to the style of his music or his preference for success. Despite others not liking directness, he asserts that he will come correct and bold like Spottie, and won't accept losses or bad deals. He is also unapologetic about his intentions with women, but his mother taught him to not add any more losses in his life. He won't even visit a car dealership until he is "flossin'." The rapper promises his future son the best in life, and has been rapping since the 80s even though he was born in 1991. When he returns to his hood, he wants to see a frozen reaction. The chorus repeats the line "feel like I'm Brad Jordan," referencing the original stage name of Scarface, an iconic rapper from Houston.
The second verse has a more aggressive tone as Michael Da Vinci describes himself as always grinding and making trouble. He wants to drop classics like a veteran rapper, and criticizes other rappers for being passive. He mentions his brother Spottie and a phone call from his mother, and how many people are asking him questions while he is high. He wants to sport a couple (of what is unclear) and play for bucks like basketball player Brandon Jennings. He warns against letting one's crown and money go missing, and calls out those who are all up in people's business or just hating. He then sends shout-outs to faithful women and his dad. The chorus repeats again, and the outro repeats the line "feel like droppin' classics" while he berates other rappers for being bustas.
