Moneybagg Yo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Dee you poppin yo' shit, nigga)

I been tryna figure out like
Why a motherfucker want you to be loyal to them
And they ain't loyal to you?
I don't, I don't really get that
Be tryna show love in private 'cause
They done told people they don't fuck with you in public and shit
Man, that shit be crazy
I don't be understandin' that shit
Niggas be feelin' a slick way about bitches and
Come on man, if we ain't about no money, what we doin'? (Speak)

I done over played my part
They forgot about me, amnesia (it's cool though)
I done hit yours, you done hit mine
Why you still mad? We even (I ain't on that)
The blogs put up anything (shit made up)
And the crazy part, they believe 'em (some goofies)
Nigga caught a charge and got locked up
Only reason dude still breathin' (I swear)
I never make a ho feel like I can't do no better than her (who?)
Heard that she got a new nigga, my bag the biggest
She said he don't fuck how I fuck (haha)
Bitch lied on God and her kids (threw me off)
Damn near fucked up my trust
I know a nigga'll cross you to win (where you at with it?)
Yeah, I come from the bluff
Lil' bro don't go through there spinnin'
Can't do it myself (why?), 'cause my position
I'm peepin' niggas in slick competition
Really some bitches, sit down when they pissin'
They get some fame off me if I mention
But it's a shame on me if I did it
I know you obsessed with me and I get it
Stay in yo' lane and stay out my business (over there)

Y'all runnin' off with all these rumors and shit
Quick and shit, makin' assumptions
Next thing you know you judgin' a nigga
Damn, what about the truth?
It's two sides to this shit
I've been that nigga
I been lit, I been the shit
Before I ever went public with a bitch
Y'all just catchin' on late
Speakin' on my personal life, my real life
Talkin' 'bout how it's fake, nigga
You ain't me, you ain't in my shoes
You ain't pay dues (speak)

"He ain't no gangsta, never did nothin' gangsta"
That's what they said (that's what they hollerin')
I done seen so many niggas end up dead 'cause they got misled (facts)
Ain't got no time for no baby-mouth ass niggas tryna get spoon-fed (nah)
All that he say she say, code red, numb to it, brain dead (don' wanna hear it)
Without y'all I wouldn't be shit, hope the haters hear me loud and clear (I'm makin' sure)
Unc told me, "A scared man a dead man, you can't live your life in fear"
So I'm takin' risks (yeah)
You can't get a fair bond last time I checked
How them charges disappear? (Hold up)
Lack of communication with my bitch (what?)
Got her actin' all insecure (mine)
I come from the struggle like you did, nigga
Why the fuck you tryna down me? (Huh)
If I gotta coach a nigga on how to be real
I don't need 'em 'round me (at all)
You can't fix your mouth to say I ain't fuck with ya at least one time
Well two times, nah, three times
Couldn't see the envy, I was too blind

See they probably thought I was runnin' out
Whole time I was holdin' back, shit an infinity clip
I'm what's goin' on, so I'm already knowin' my name gon' be in ya' mouth
But when you have them conversations
Make sure you mention he gettin' six figures for a show
Eleven whips paid for, house sittin' on four acres
Take care of his kids, treat all of 'em equally
Mama put up, she can wiggle her toes at night peacefully
Shit like that what I do it for, that's goals, nigga (speak)

Hope for the best, prepare for the worse
However it come, just know that I'm ready (that's it)
You know a lie don't give a fuck who tell it (uh)
I know they mad but they never admit it (who?)
It be your own people (blood)
They gone try to take advantage of you if you let 'em
They get a thrill off turnin' you down
But never gossip but how you help 'em
I heard it's niggas out here wanna touch me
But I can't tell, I be where they at
Watch you draw the line, so stay over there
Don't come 'round the gang, don't throw up the set
You not what I rep, why do some shit you gone regret? (Answer that)
Think smart with it, this shit chess (ha)
Just 'cause y'all related don't mean nothin'
Niggas Unc'll ice about that check (I ain't Meech)
All that "you love me" shit ain't genuine
I felt the vibe when I walked in
Shit slick, hurt me thinkin' you solid then I saw you bend
Even after they true colors show, kept it real on my end
That wasn't my beef at first, I made it mine
'Cause me and bruh locked in (for life and after)

When I say we la familia, we la familia, we locked in for life
Shit, loyalty over love
We gon' keep it real first
Like you not gon' see me fuckin' with my nigga opp
I don't give a fuck if I knew his opp longer than him
Niggas'll hate you so much, they can know yo' opp a rat
And still hang with 'em
Don't that make them the same nigga?
Shit, let me know, I need clarification
What part of the game is that?
See, I know what need to be done
Nigga need to start pullin', straight up checkin' these niggas
These niggas can't stand no pressure
A nigga gotta feel how I'm comin' where I'm comin' from
