Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I been stacking, I been working, I been floating
You aint notice cause you going with the motions
Don't repeat myself, just say what ive been on
And you gotta know
I said what I said
Don't try to test me
I said what I said
I said what I said
Don't try to test me
I said what I said
You can miss me
(cause)
N****s be talking so slick
so get the f**k off of the shit
Cause I don't have time for the games
But if Ima shoot, I don't miss (huh)
You can miss me with the shit (whoa)
I don't take notice to it
There's no comparison, shooting like Harrison
Ignoring haters cause I don't be caring
They just be flaring while I'm in a lane
Godspeed like I been on a train
Elevate when you make a mistake
Show love, it's too much to hate
Bring change and penetrate anything that's in your way
Do your thang, don't ever listen what another gon' have to say
(ayeeee)
I been rollin, I been on it, I been going
I been stacking, I been working, I been floating
You ain't notice cause you going with the motions
Don't repeat myself, just say what I've been on
And you gotta know
I said what I said
Don't try to test me
I said what I said
You can miss me
I said what I said
Don't try to test me
I said what I said
You can miss me
Lately I been in my bag
Getting back to it and I'm tryna add
All of my equity, why are you sweating?
See that I'm getting it, nobody reppin me
One man band, all it takes is one to stand
State my fee, create demand
My supply is super saiyan, aye aye
I'm feeling free, I'm feeling me
I'm tryna build an economy
With black dollars circulating
Actually, we melanated
From the land they sayin
Too trill, stay jaded
We grinding on the daily and it's a lot of f*****g hatin
Come together elevate shit
No name, no faces
I stay home, no cases
Case closed, just face it
Rappin is poetry and you really should pay me
I can't mistake a gift from God, I praise Him daily
WAIT…..

These outfits, the Timbaland produced beat/backing vocals, the dramatic storyline... oh my god, so 2007. I love it.
@khasualentertainment6734
They was produced and managed by the same guy from immature and b2k.

Romans 10:9-11 KJV 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.❤❤
@djdairyqueen4095
Timbaland clearly produced this song.
You can just hear his signature sound...and his voice.
@tylergarrison1872
Reeeeeeally. I just heard this song again and I never thought of it but definitely has a Timbaland vibe
@Broke_buffet
FUN FACT: King Logan of Royal court produced this. He was part of Tim's camp at the time and that's his voice in the background in the chorus. BONUS: He also produced Icebox. That's his voice imitating the Timbaland radio voice on Icebox too.
Another FUN FACT: Marques Houston was the Vocal Arranger/Producer on this song. That's why it kinda sounds like him.
@hatchibyebye
I actually thought it was a timbaland knock off song. I didn’t think they were big enough to work with Timb but apparently they were signed to him or smth. You can also hear Ryan Tedder influence in the song. Who around this time also had a close relationship with Timb.
@kamiwilson3615
Like it's not a secret that he produced it.
@val6787
He produced more tracks, still have it in my mail sone where😂
@charlesvictoria6800
This boy band was way underrated. Their riffs and runs are top notch.
