Speak 4 Em
MoneyBagg Yo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Go) left a show then I hopped in a booth (I did)
I was walking I jumped in a coupe (skrrt)
Out the bank, money sticky like glue (it is)
With gorillas I'm still in the zoo (crew)
I can't get out the streets 'cause I love 'em (love 'em)
Why you still in the trap if you buzzin'? (I don't know)
You on fire, you hot as a oven (fire)
Fuck a bitch 'cause they come by the dozen (uh)
I can't fuck with you dog, you might tell on someone
Ayy, go look up my name, I ain't tell on nothin' (nope)
I can't hang no more, I'm busy (busy)
Elevator upgraded my image (image)
I got open, I'm lickin' her titties (for real)
Give her dick, she come back, a Frisbee (right now)
I'm the topic, they're talkin', I'm trendin' (trendin')
No advice, like fuck your opinion (fuck)
You can go and ask G, that my witness (big homie)
I was just broke as fuck in the trenches (I was)
Now it's G Wagon trucks in the trenches (pull up)
Pockets stuffed 'bout to bust out the britches (whoa)
Credit good, I got stripes like a Visa (Visa)
Bread and sauce like a slice of the pizza (Pizza)
Weigh that dope on the scale like a libra (back then)
I was chargin' the shit out them people

I got niggas that's gone, in jail or deceased
They don't got a voice, so I'ma speak
No matter the pressure, I stand on both feet
I get you touched from afar, I got reach (anywhere)
Lookin' for me in a city, speak up let us know
I let Grape 'nem work the Drac', OVO they gon' blow
Saw on the 'Gram they handled your man (damn)
Internet tough, he should've quit playin'
Would've paid for the funeral, but he a opp
I'll cut off my feet before I flip-flop
My pockets in shape, I got 'em tip top
Lean in my soda, but I'll never go pop
Talk so bad about her, I thought they weren't cool
When I fucked her friend she put me on block

(All my old hoes say I act new and shit)
(If I was them I'd be missing me too, hey)

I put on some Dior to go buy some Louis
We not the same at all (never)
These niggas petty, they pussy, they coochie
You not the gang at all (never)
My young niggas solvin' them problems regardless
Steppin' on shit with no shoe on
Must've lost my mind when I went to Shine
Spent one-fifty for some screw-ons
Can't be on my team still starvin' (why?)
I provide the plate but can't eat for 'em
Call a press conference, let me talk to 'em (what they say?)
Translator I'ma speak for 'em (speak)
A-B-C-D-E-F-G, ridin' with a K (brrt)
Choppa gang, 3-7-5, young niggas hot as May
Get plastic surgery if you muggin', better fix your face (right now)
Hittas gonna lay outside your house, post up, tailgate
Hey, I just fuckin' relapsed, all this drank I gotta pee now (doin' it)
Got the hookup on these drugs, Think I'm Master P now




I just came to collect what they owe me and then I'm out this (gone)
I just spent a M on VVS's, bought some alphabets (huh)

Overall Meaning

MoneyBagg Yo's lyrics in "Speak 4 Em" depict his life experiences and the lessons he learned while coming up from the streets. He describes how his money is sticky like glue from the bank, his crew is still in the zoo with gorillas, and he still loves the streets even though he's famous. He feels that he can't escape the streets. MoneyBagg Yo then speaks about how he cannot mess with someone who could potentially tell on him to the authorities. The rapper expresses how busy he is now and how he has upgraded his life, including his image too. He then mentions the successes he has had, such as being the topic of discussion, trending and how there's no advice or opinions that can change his mind. He mentions his loyalty to his friends who are either in jail or deceased, saying he will speak up for them since they don't have a voice, and that he can still get them touched. He ends his verse by alluding to how he's relapsed and bought expensive VVS stones alongside lyricism about his Alpha-bet necklace.


The song contains inside references to rapper's career that fans of MoneyBagg Yo will find interesting. One of the notable lyrics is the reference to GOML (Gangsta Of Memphis Legend) which is located in South Memphis, where Bagg grew up, made and cultivated. OVO in the song refers to the record label and brand of rapper Drake, and it's mentioned that they will help Bagg's boys make it big in the industry. The rapper also references his connections to Roc Nation, who he signed a management deal with in late 2019. He raps about Plastic, an artist signed to his label, CMG, and how he would let them handle his beef. There's a mention of Ridgecrest Apartments, a housing complex in Memphis where the rapper had his very first apartment during his early struggles.
