Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My niggas said they'll hold me down like some dead weight
I told them I gottem for life
They know they dead straight
How you hating because ya mutherfuckin mans ate
Too much pussy in ya heart that's why you ain't great
My niggas gorilla
All kills no filler
Have you zipped up like Mike's jacket on Thrilla
You better strap up cuz them boys will kill ya
Born to get it in nobody is realer
The world gunna feel it when We walk in
I grew up ona hot block ain't to much talkin
If you ain't up the Glock you be dead stock like Jordan's
Them others niggas bitchin shorty they not really ballin
When the lights go down I kno who got my back
Same niggas I was running with before rap
Same niggas I was going dumb with in the trap
You niggas ain't hustling who gave you ya first pack
Greed watch ya front cause you kno I got ya back
On the grind day and night so you kno we never lack
Loyalty is the Code and we only speak in facts
Rest In Peace my nigga E and you know I mean that (Long Live Eric Nigga)
When the Lights Go Down who really got ya back
Is them really ya dogs or is they gunna rat
When them shots get to flying is they gone shoot back
Can you really say that ya niggas is like that
When the Lights Go Down who really got ya back
Is them really ya dogs or is they gunna rat
When them shots get to flying is they gone shoot back
Can you really say that ya niggas is like that
Catch me in my PDA like Tucker
If not making traps catch me hooping at Rucker
Or posted on the stoop with some bad Mutherfuckers
You looking for that pressure homie, yea I got that Ziggy on me
Trap Phone on the side it'll never leave me lonely
Always keep that money, Came in just me and Brodie
But I'm still acting lonely, Euro Bread just like Ginobili
Legend like the late Kobe, Flipping packs flipping stacks
Trap King gaining on it, Mike Mills retaining on it
These niggas lost they don't know where to go
Stay solid that's all I know, Pray my niggas never fold
Get Money Stay Trill The Only Life I'll Ever Know
When the Lights Go Down who really got ya back
Is them really ya dogs or is they gunna rat
When them shots get to flying is they gone shoot back
Can you really say that ya niggas is like that
When the Lights Go Down who really got ya back
Is them really ya dogs or is they gunna rat




When them shots get to flying is they gone shoot back
Can you really say that ya niggas is like that

How watching other niggas pockets make you feel bossy
Looking at others' wealth can make you feel powerful


Everybody weird that's how I feel often
Everyone has their own quirks, and I'm no different


Niggas will leave you with crumbs and make a mill of you
Others may give you very little, but still take advantage and profit off of your work


It ain't if it's about when this shit gone come
It's not a question of 'if' things will happen, but 'when'


It ain't about how you feel, it's about shit getting done
Feeling sorry for yourself won't accomplish anything, action is needed


It be all hard work before this shit get fun
Success requires long hours and hard work before any enjoyment can be had


It be money to get and I be getting me some
There's always more money to be made, and I'm working towards it
