Up Out My Face
Nicki Minaj Lyrics

It's not chipped (no)
It's not damaged or broken (no)

We're not cracked (uh-uh)
We're not broken or shattered (uh-uh)

Oh, we're shattered (Mariah)
Oh, we're completely broken and destroyed (referring to Mariah Carey's emotional state)

Ay hey, ay hey, ay hey (Young Money, Nicki Minaj)
An expression of excitement or acknowledgment (featuring the record label Young Money and Nicki Minaj)

Ooh na, na-na-na (you're such a Barbie)
An exclamation or sound of surprise (referring to Nicki Minaj being compared to a Barbie doll)

Na-na, na-na-na-na (yo, Mariah)
An exclamation or sound of surprise (referring to Mariah Carey's involvement in the song)

I was in the million dollar meetings, he was cheatin'
I was attending important and high-value meetings, while he was being unfaithful in a relationship

All up in the church, he was sneakin' with the Deacon
He was engaging in secret and inappropriate activities with a church official, specifically the Deacon

Cat's away, well, the mice will play
When the person in power or authority is absent, others take advantage and engage in misbehavior

Lol, smiley face, have a nice-a day
Laughing out loud, expressing happiness and wishing a pleasant day with a smiley face

'Cause pop, pop, pop, there goes my rubber band
Indicating the snapping or breaking of a rubber band, symbolizing the end of financial security or stability

So stop, stop, stop sniffin' that contraband
Stop engaging in illegal or prohibited activities, such as drug use

'Cause you was penny pinchin', my account's laced
You were excessively frugal or stingy, while my bank account is filled with abundant funds

Attention, up out face
Warning or calling someone out, asking them to leave or remove themselves from my presence

I thought we had something special
I believed that our relationship was unique and significant

And we had something good
And we had a positive and fulfilling connection

But I shoulda had another mechanic under my hood
But I should have been more cautious and had someone else in my life who could take care of me emotionally

If you see me walking by you, boy, don't you even speak
If you happen to see me passing by, do not attempt to engage in conversation

Pretend you on the sofa and I'm on the TV
Imagine that you are at home on the sofa, while I am being displayed on television

You might see me on a poster, see me at a show
You might come across posters or see me performing live at a concert

But you won't see me for free, boy, this ain't no promo
But you won't have the privilege of seeing me without payment, as this is not a promotional event

Actin' all shamed now
Behaving in a manner expressing shame or regret now

Wherever you be laying, you can stay now
Wherever you may be resting or staying, you can remain in that place now

Gotta board the BBJ and put the shades down
I have to get on board a private jet and lower the window shades for privacy

I'm on the plane now
I am currently traveling on an airplane

And don't keep calling from your mama's house
And stop persistently calling me from your mother's residence

When I break I break, boy
When I decide to end a relationship or cut ties, I do it decisively, without hesitation

Up out my face, boy, up out my face, boy (up out my face, up out my face)
Leave my presence, remove yourself from my sight and existence

Up out my face, I break, uh (up out my face)
I forcefully expel you from my life, leaving no room for negotiation or reconciliation

Up out my face, boy, up out my face, boy (up out my face, up out my face)
Leave my presence, remove yourself from my sight and existence

Up out my face, I break (up out my face)
I forcefully expel you from my life, leaving no room for negotiation or reconciliation

You ain't never gonna feel this thing again (uh-uh)
You will never experience this type of emotional connection again (uh-uh)

You gon' get a lot of calls
You will receive numerous phone calls

'Cause I CC-ed all your friends (when I break, I break)
Because I copied all your friends on the communication (when I decide to end things, I do it without holding back)

I ain't walking 'round all mopey and sad
I am not going to appear gloomy or sorrowful

That ain't even my bag, baby
That's not my style or approach, baby

(I break, when I break I break)
(I end a relationship decisively, without hesitation)

(Mariah)
(Referring to Mariah Carey)

So look who's crying now, boo-ooh, hoo
Look at who is feeling sadness and regret now, expressing it with a mock crying sound

Talking 'bout your missin' your boo
Talking about how you are longing for your significant other

Oh no, you and getting it (I know)
Oh no, you are acting like you are successful and achieving great things (I understand)

No, you ain't hittin' it
No, you are not succeeding or accomplishing anything significant

No, you ain't a rapper
No, you are not a skilled or talented musician

So you need to stop spittin' it
So you need to stop attempting to rap or perform in that manner

Ha ha, haa, ha ha
Laughing in a dismissive or mocking manner

You wonder who I'm messin' with
You are curious about who I am involved or having a relationship with

While you ain't next to me
While you are not by my side or part of my life

I'm goin', bye
I am leaving, saying goodbye

So pay the consequences
So face the repercussions or penalties of your actions

'Cause you actin' all ignorant
Because you are behaving in a foolish or uninformed manner

So you ashamed now
So you feel embarrassed or guilty now

Wherever you be laying, you can stay now
Wherever you may be resting or staying, you can remain in that place now

Gotta board the BBJ and put the shades down
I have to get on board a private jet and lower the window shades for privacy

I'm on the plane now (mhm)
I am currently traveling on an airplane

And don't keep calling from your mama's house (yo)
And stop persistently calling me from your mother's residence (yo)

Stylin' on 'em, big B's, bought the Benz out
Showing off and impressing others, with big bank accounts and driving a luxurious Mercedes-Benz

Elevator, press P for the penthouse
Using the elevator and selecting the 'P' button to reach the luxurious penthouse

Cop those then we break like tacos
Buying expensive items and then quickly leaving or disappearing like a taco being broken or consumed

Roscoe's, on his knees wit a snot nose
At Roscoe's (restaurant) where someone is kneeling and crying with a runny nose

They be like she next, Kawasaki T-Rex (T-Rex)
They are saying that she (Nicki Minaj) is next in line, comparing her to a powerful Kawasaki T-Rex motorcycle

Give him some Kleenex, match his little V-necks (V-necks)
Give him some tissues to wipe his tears, matching his small V-neck shirts

Oh, that's what he left?
Oh, that's what he abandoned or left behind?

Let his momma pick it up (pick it up)
Let his mother take care of it or handle the consequences

Might back up on it
Might reverse onto it

Vroom vroom, with the pick-up truck
Revving the engine sound of a pick-up truck

That blue and yellow, yeah, that's the Carmelo Jag'
Referring to a blue and yellow car, specifically a Carmelo Jaguar

I bob and weave 'em, hit him with that Mayweather jab
I skillfully dodge and evade them, striking with a quick punch like boxer Floyd Mayweather

I get the thumbs up like I'm hailin' a yellow cab (hailin' a yellow cab)
I receive approval or positive feedback, as if I am signaling for a passing yellow taxi

My flow nuts like M&M's in the yellow bag (Mariah)
My rap style is extraordinary and unique, comparing it to the colorful M&M's candy in a yellow bag (referring to Mariah Carey's involvement in the song)

When I break, I break, I break
When I decide to end a relationship or cut ties, I do it decisively and completely

And no super glue can fix this sh-
And no adhesive or solution can repair this broken situation

Not even a welder and a builder could rebuild this sh-
Not even a skilled welder or builder could reconstruct or restore this broken state of affairs

Not even a nail technician with a whole lot of gel and acrylic
Not even a professional nail technician with extensive supplies of gel and acrylic could fix this issue

Can fix this when I break, I break
Cannot repair or resolve this when I decide to end things, I do it decisively

If we were two Lego blocks
If we were two blocks made of Lego

Even the Harvard University graduating class of 2010
Even the group of students who graduated from Harvard University in 2010

Couldn't put us back together again
Could not reassemble or reunite us

(Young Money)
(Referring to the record label Young Money)

You ain't never gonna feel this thing again (I told you)
You will never experience this type of emotional connection again (I warned you)

You gon' get a lot of calls (I put, I put your stuff on the sidewalk)
You will receive numerous phone calls (I put, I put your belongings on the sidewalk)

'Cause I CC-ed all your friends (ha, ha, ha, ha, haa, ha, ha, ha, ha, haa)
Because I copied all your friends on the communication (laughing in a mocking manner)

I ain't walking 'round all mopey and sad (I break)
I am not going to appear gloomy or sorrowful (I end things decisively)

(Like straight up and down, I am Nicki Minaj)
(I am being honest and straightforward, I am Nicki Minaj)

(You know I'm sayin'? Ask about me)
(You know what I mean? Inquire about my reputation or ask people about me)

I break, boy (Young Money)
I end things decisively, boy (featuring the record label Young Money)

Up out my face, boy (up out my face)
Leave my presence, boy (leave my sight and existence)

Up out my face, boy (no, no, no)
Leave my presence, boy (no, no, no)

Up out my face, I break, uh (up out my face)
I forcefully expel you from my life, I break, uh (I remove you from my existence)

Up out my face, boy (tell you nothin', here)
Leave my presence, boy (I am not telling you anything here)

Up out my face, boy (I'll tell you something)
Leave my presence, boy (I will tell you something)

Up out my face, I break (I'm outta here, oh yeah)
I forcefully expel you from my life, I break (I am leaving, oh yeah)

Up out my face, boy
Leave my presence, boy

Up out my face, boy
Leave my presence, boy
