Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take a half a P-E-R-C (half a Perc)
Everybody say they know me (know me)
Ain't complaining 'cause that's how it supposed to be (supposed to be)
Don't wanna hang, oh yeah, I'm always by myself (by myself)
I'm feeling paranoid, I think I need some help (some help)
Taking anything that gon' help keep me up (keep me up)
Don't feel my enemies, I walk with my chest up (my chest up)
The money make me feel like I'm so powerful (powerful)
And the pills got me acting out of character (yeah)
.40 pointers, I just got my carats up (carats up)
She fuck with me, her passport getting stamped up (stamped up)
My Perfect Timing ring made my hand cramp up (bling)
Diamonds shining, you ain't gotta turn the lamp up (lamp up)
Double G help me keep my pants up
They don't wanna see or help me get my bands up
Kill the pain and I repeat (kill the pain and I repeat)
They ain't getting rid of me (they ain't getting rid of me)
This ain't what they wanna see (this ain't what they wanna see)
They wanna trade places with me (wanna trade places with me)
Pour a four in the Sprite clean (Sprite clean)
Take a half a P-E-R-C (half a Perc)
Everybody say they know me (know me)
Ain't complaining 'cause that's how it supposed to be (supposed to be)
Don't wanna hang, oh yeah, I'm always by myself (by myself)
I'm feeling paranoid, I think I need some help (some help)
Taking anything that gon' help keep me up (keep me up)
Don't feel my enemies, I walk with my chest up (my chest up)
Nascar speeding, scrape my rims up (skrrrt)
Through the down times, I kept my chin up
Gelato and biscotti fill my lungs up
Them bullets hot, my opps are getting bun up
Fucking hoes, she ask me where I wanna finish
I don't trust nobody, based off what I witnessed
Popping beans, help me get my bands up
They call me a fiend, try walking I can't stand up
Take a Xan so I can sleep (take a Xan so I can sleep)
They ain't getting rid of me (they ain't getting rid of me)
This ain't what they wanna see (this ain't what they wanna see)
They wanna trade places with me (wanna trade places with me)

The lyrics of NAV's song "Sprite Clean" delve into the artist's mindset and experiences with drugs, fame, and paranoia. The opening lines refer to NAV mixing codeine (known as "lean") in a Sprite soda bottle, a common practice among those who indulge in recreational drug use. He then mentions taking a half of a Percocet, another powerful painkiller commonly abused for its euphoric effects.
NAV emphasizes that despite his fame and success, he feels isolated and prefers to be alone. He expresses his paranoia, suggesting that he may need assistance or support to alleviate his anxieties. To cope, he relies on drugs to stay awake and maintain his alertness, as he does not want to be caught off guard by his enemies. The lyrics further touch on the excessive wealth he has acquired, which makes him feel powerful. He boasts about his extravagant jewelry, stating that his diamond ring even caused his hand to cramp up.
The chorus highlights NAV's determination to overcome pain and adversity, with a belief that others would trade places with him if given the opportunity. In the second verse, he uses car-related metaphors to illustrate his resilience and perseverance through tough times. He mentions filling his lungs with marijuana smoke, indicating his reliance on the drug for stress relief. NAV also alludes to violent altercations, stating that his enemies are getting "bun up" or injured by bullets. He admits to engaging in promiscuity but asserts his distrust of others based on past experiences.
Overall, "Sprite Clean" offers a glimpse into the darker side of NAV's lifestyle, where drug use, isolation, and paranoia are prevalent themes.
