Talk
Mr. Ellz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With some haze
In that leaf
Getting blazed
Play some old school
Wake up grooving
This that new school though
Check my music
She like my fragrance
The hate unnecessary, player that's a flagrant
This lemonade taste better with some peach
Your new shit get old every week
Oh you got new cars?
New broads?
New clothes?
Oh, I done heard that
Got new this, and new that
Oh I get it you can't even really rap
I ain't got to rock a diamond cause I am a diamond
I make money every week without direct deposit
Fast lane hope I never catch a flat
But I got spares cause I know they'll try to hold me back
From championship rings, all the fancy things
All the platinum plaques hanging off the frames
But it don't even matter it all mean the same
Long as my fans still love me when that phone ring
Charlotte nigga
West side baby
So be cool nigga
Cause west side raised me
I recognize greatness
Before it's even greatness
I took forever with this shit
I masterminded patience
These niggas basic
No relation
My room the station
Look like a spaceship
Never complacent
Whenever me and my niggas link
Business conversations
No contemplations
We just tryna make it out of here dawg
Kicking shit like 808s thats rattling dawg
We be swimming up that stream
Ain't no paddling dawg
These niggas pouting and they really just be saddling dawg
Start off my days
With some haze
In that leaf
Getting blazed
Play some old school
Wake up grooving
This that new school though
Check my music
Check my cadence
She like my fragrance
The hate unnecessary, player that's a flagrant
This lemonade taste better with some peach
Your new shit get old every week
Oh you got new cars?
New broads?
New clothes?
Oh, I done heard that
Got new this, and new that
Oh I get it you can't even really rap

Check my music
Listen to my own songs
Check my cadence
Analyze my rhyming patterns

Women are attracted to my scent
The hate unnecessary, player that's a flagrant
Haters are not important, they are just committing unnecessary fouls like in basketball

Adding peach flavor enhances the taste of lemonade
Your new shit get old every week
Your new music becomes outdated very quickly
Oh you got new cars?
You have new vehicles?
New broads?
New romantic partners?
New clothes?
New clothing?
Oh, I done heard that
I have heard these boasts before
Got new this, and new that
You have many new possessions
Oh I get it you can't even really rap
I understand, you are not a talented rapper
I ain't got to rock a diamond cause I am a diamond
I do not need expensive jewelry because I am valuable on my own
I make money every week without direct deposit
I earn income regularly without the need for direct deposit
Fast lane hope I never catch a flat
I hope to continue to progress without any setbacks
But I got spares cause I know they'll try to hold me back
But I am prepared for obstacles because I know people will try to hinder my success
From championship rings, all the fancy things
From winning championships to owning luxurious possessions
All the platinum plaques hanging off the frames
All of the records I have sold which have been recognized with platinum status
But it don't even matter it all mean the same
But those achievements do not define my self-worth, they all have the same value to me
Long as my fans still love me when that phone ring
As long as my fans continue to support me and enjoy my music even when they receive phone calls interrupting our conversations
Charlotte nigga
I am from Charlotte, North Carolina
West side baby
I am from the west side of Charlotte
So be cool nigga
So stay calm
Cause west side raised me
Because growing up on the west side of Charlotte has influenced who I am
I recognize greatness
I am able to identify greatness
Before it's even greatness
Before it is even widely accepted as great
I took forever with this shit
It took me a long time to perfect my craft
I masterminded patience
I developed a strategic plan to be patient and wait for the right opportunities
These niggas basic
Other rappers are not unique, not original, and not interesting
No relation
I have no connection to other rappers
My room the station
My room is like a recording studio
Look like a spaceship
My room resembles a spaceship
Never complacent
I am never satisfied with my current status and always strive to improve
Whenever me and my niggas link
Whenever I meet up with my friends
Business conversations
We discuss ways to further our careers
No contemplations
No second thoughts are necessary
We just tryna make it out of here dawg
We are only trying to become successful and leave our current situation
Kicking shit like 808s thats rattling dawg
Making music with a strong bass like the 808 sound that shakes the listener
We be swimming up that stream
We are trying to make progress despite facing many obstacles
Ain't no paddling dawg
We cannot afford to take breaks or slow down
These niggas pouting and they really just be saddling dawg
Other rappers are taking a passive and defeatist attitude instead of actively trying to improve
