NAV Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, oh (brr), oh (brr), oh
Got more ice than a skatin' rink, think I need my mink, gotta bundle up (mink)
Take my chain, watch the news next week, you gon' see dead bodies turnin' up (bah, bah)
Poppin' this molly got me grindin' at night
Got some porcelain teeth, I done fucked 'em up (fucked 'em up)
I was eighteen with a pound of weed, I was baggin' up dimes at the back of the bus
You gon' fuck around, get your homeboy touched (bah, bah, bah)
Goin' in the fridge, I ain't lookin' for a Sunny D, I just want the purple stuff
Upgraded me to a diamond account, I been gettin' bitches, fillin' up Uber trucks
Sal said that he got another million-dollar check for me
I told him to run it up, run it up
Say you want smoke, we'll turn you to a pack
Take a hood girl and I'll turn her to a brat
Rap game fake, yeah, it's hard to adapt
Everything they talk 'bout is cap, cap, cap
Textin' my phone, I don't never write back
I been losin' sleep just countin' up cash
Lots of bad habits, I'm poppin' off tags
I'ma fuck the game up when I drop "Bag"
Rollin' off the pills, two hundred on the dash
I'ma bend the corner, I almost crashed
Got everythin' that I need
If I see somethin' else that I want, I'ma buy it in cash
We was dead broke
We ain't had no money for the work, so we drive around pickin' up bags
Got pulled over, had P's in the trunk
Frost said he'd take the charge, but they gave us a pass
Got more ice than a skatin' rink, think I need my mink, gotta bundle up (mink)
Take my chain, watch the news next week, you gon' see dead bodies turnin' up (bah, bah)
Poppin' this molly got me grindin' at night
Got some porcelain teeth, I done fucked 'em up (fucked 'em up)
I was eighteen with a pound of weed, I was baggin' up dimes at the back of the bus
Hidin' from me, throwin' dirt on my name
You gon' fuck around, get your homeboy touched (bah, bah, bah)
Goin' in the fridge, I ain't lookin' for a Sunny D, I just want the purple stuff
Upgraded me to a diamond account, I been gettin' bitches, fillin' up Uber trucks
Sal said that he got another million-dollar check for me
I told him to run it up, run it up
Oh (oh, oh, oh)
Oh
Oh
Pull up like Ace and I'm shameless (shameless)
Pull up like Ace from the cleaners (cleaners)
I dropped two hundred on a watch (hunnid)
She wet, Aquafina, yeah ('fina)
Me and NAV in the Bugatti ('gatti)
Movin' too hotty (movin' too hotty)
'Cause we came from the bottom (the bottom)
Now we solvin' all our problems (our problems)
Crib got five stories, yeah, I live like a king
Thirty-five carats the ring 'cause ('cause)
Diamond cuts on my necklace
I'm so expensive
I been spendin' (yeah)
I'm young and reckless ('less)
I been havin', yeah
If we all gettin' money, nigga, why are you hatin'? (Why are you hatin'?)
If you ain't talkin' money, change the conversation (change the conversation)
Niggas know my name, ain't no false claimin' (oh, oh)
When I walk in the spot, niggas know who we are
No, I ain't twirlin', we shootin' them stars
The song "Run It Up" by NAV and Pop Smoke is a rap track about getting rich and famous despite facing various obstacles along the way. The opening lines, "Got more ice than a skatin' rink, think I need my mink, gotta bundle up," refers to the rappers wearing expensive jewelry and designer clothing to stay warm in the cold weather. Pop Smoke raps about his reckless lifestyle, popping molly at night and messing up his porcelain teeth. He also talks about his past, bagging up weed at the back of the bus at the age of 18 and feeling like people were throwing dirt on his name. Pop warns his enemies to watch their backs because he's not afraid to retaliate. In the chorus, he states that he's upgraded to a diamond account and tells his manager to keep bringing him million-dollar checks to run up his wealth.
In the second verse, NAV takes over and raps about his rise to fame and haters who try to bring him down. He also mentions his expensive habits, like popping off tags and rolling off pills as he speeds down the street. Despite his reckless behavior, NAV is proud of his wealth and intends to keep getting money with his team. He talks about how far he's come, from driving around picking up bags when he was broke to buying whatever he wants with cash. NAV also reminisces about how he and Pop Smoke used to be broke but are now living like kings, with a five-story crib and a 35-carat ring. The chorus repeats again after his verse, emphasizing their message of running up their riches and not letting anyone hold them down.
