Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And here everybody come
Wait up hold up look out watch out
I said you make a Lil money
Everybody want some
Wait up hold up look out watch out
But you really weren't there
You ain't never showed love
And we really don't care
That's more for us
When we score them bucks
We really don't share
Better pour them cups
Trynna get fucked up
Put 'em up like cheers
Better hold shit down
We gon tear shit up
No no diamonds on my neck
Ain't no diamonds on my wrist no
I don't need that shit
I could still fuck your bitch bro
Pull up to the crib
Skeet skirt and she tip toed
Through the the back door
Or the window
But now it's back 2 business
Back to vibes
Killing anybody that survives
Even zombies that's half alive
Anybody that cross me
Just has to die
I'm like yeah yeah
Throw them bodies In the back room
Then I'm headed to the bathroom, so
She could suck me off like a vacuum
Bet you thought you new me huh
Fuck you this new me yuh
I don't do you I do me and
I don't fit in no Zumies bruh
You could fight me or sue me
Just don't assume that we homies
Cause You fake fully that phony
And that bullshit never gon hold me
I keep one hand on a check
I keep one foot on they neck
I keep a blade in my sock
Promoters gon show us respect
And make sure the doe is correct
Go in then pockets
Cause we need the bag
It's only bidness I see that u mad
But we in it for the money
We ain't did it to be funny
We ain't trolling on bitches
We coming for the cash
I said You make a Lil money
And here everybody come
Wait up hold up look out watch out
I said you make a Lil money
Everybody want some
Wait up hold up look out watch out
But you really weren't there
You ain't never showed love
You ain't never pulled up
And we really don't care
That's more for us
When we score them bucks
We really don't share
Better pour them cups
Trynna get fucked up
Put 'em up like cheers
Better hold shit down
We gon tear shit up
Flex on 'em like lex did
Tech on me like strange tho
Y'all be acting birds man
So put respect on my name ho
Horns hiding my halo
I got a devil cutting my wing span
How the fuck am I fly still
I gotta side tilt with a kick Stand
9 millz when I hit that
Dog I'm gone I ain't coming back
Spaced out and I'm unattached
So I Skate on em like a running back
I hate the drama
but I love the money
Homie I know that it come with that
I live for it, I ride for it
And I die for it if it come to that
Bag on me I come for that
Smash on em like I'm running rap
Rainbows with the same flows
U lame hoe have fun with that
Fit matched with a gun attached
Whip hatch and a gun in back
If I hit the latch
And up come unwrapped
Got a automatic shoot A 100 caps
I just want my check
Then I'll hit the trail
I don't love the game
Because that bitch is frail
You can make a lil bread
But I know that shit is stale
If you don't make it on your own
Cause that shit a different feel
I said You make a lil money
And here everybody come
Wait up hold up look out watch out
I said you make a lil money
Everybody want some
Wait up hold up look out watch out
But you really weren't there
You ain't never showed love
You ain't never pulled up
And we really don't care
That's more for us
When we score them bucks
We really don't share
Better pour them cups
Trynna get fucked up
Put 'em up like cheers
Better hold shit down
We gon tear shit up

I don't find value in material possessions
I could still fuck your bitch bro
I can still attract women without fancy items
Pull up to the crib
Come over to my house
Skeet skirt and she tip toed
She comes to my house secretly
Through the back door Or the window
She sneaks in without using the front door
But now it's back 2 business
It's time to focus on work again
Back to vibes
Back to our usual mindset
Killing anybody that survives
We're aggressive in our business approach
Even zombies that's half alive
Even those who are struggling in the industry
Anybody that cross me
Anyone who tries to interfere with my business
Just has to die
Will face consequences
Throw them bodies In the back room
Handle problems discreetly
Then I'm headed to the bathroom, so
To engage in sexual activity
She could suck me off like a vacuum
Oral sex reference
Bet you thought you new me huh
You thought you knew me well
Fuck you this new me yuh
You don't know me anymore
I don't do you I do me and
I don't follow your expectations, I follow my own desires
I don't fit in no Zumies bruh
I don't conform to society's norms
You could fight me or sue me
You could confront me or take legal action against me
Just don't assume that we homies
Don't assume we're friends
Cause You fake fully that phony
You're being dishonest
And that bullshit never gon hold me
Your lies won't affect me
I keep one hand on a check
I prioritize my earnings
I keep one foot on they neck
I maintain a level of power and control over others
I keep a blade in my sock
I'm prepared for danger
Promoters gon show us respect
Promoters will treat us fairly
And make sure the doe is correct
And make sure we get paid accurately
Go in then pockets
Collect earnings
Cause we need the bag
Money is necessary for us
It's only bidness
It's just business
I see that u mad
I see that you're upset
But we in it for the money
Our focus is on profit
We ain't did it to be funny
We're not playing around
We ain't trolling on bitches
We're not messing with women
We coming for the cash
We're chasing after money
Flex on 'em like lex did
We're showing off our success
Tech on me like strange tho
We're prepared with weapons
Y'all be acting birds man
You all act immature
So put respect on my name ho
Treat me with respect
Horns hiding my halo
I'm not as innocent as I seem
I got a devil cutting my wing span
I have a dark side
How the fuck am I fly still
Despite my flaws, I'm still successful
I gotta side tilt with a kick Stand
I have unique ways to maintain myself
9 millz when I hit that
I'm successful in my music career
Dog I'm gone I ain't coming back
I'm focused on my career, not returning to my past
Spaced out and I'm unattached
I'm detached from previous relationships
So I Skate on em like a running back
I'm avoiding emotional connections like a football player
I hate the drama
I don't like conflict
but I love the money
But I value success and earnings
Homie I know that it come with that
I understand that success comes with challenges
I live for it, I ride for it
I'm passionate about success and will do everything for it
And I die for it if it come to that
I'm willing to give my life for success
Bag on me I come for that
I'm chasing the money
Smash on em like I'm running rap
I'm dominating the industry
Rainbows with the same flows
Others have similar skills and sound
U lame hoe have fun with that
You're irrelevant
Fit matched with a gun attached
I'm fashionable but prepared for danger
Whip hatch and a gun in back
The car is modified for safety
If I hit the latch
If there's a problem
And up come unwrapped
I'm prepared to handle it
Got a automatic shoot A 100 caps
I have the ability to take down anyone who crosses me
I just want my check
I just want my earnings
Then I'll hit the trail
Then I'll return to work
I don't love the game
I'm not passionate about the industry
Because that bitch is frail
Because the industry is fragile and constantly changing
You can make a lil bread
You can earn some money
But I know that shit is stale
But I know it won't last long
If you don't make it on your own
If you don't succeed on your own
Cause that shit a different feel
It's a different kind of success
I said You make a lil money
I acknowledge that you have some money
I said you make a lil money
I acknowledge that you have some money

The best acting in the history of motion picture !!

lannister84
One of the best Streisand performances!
lannister84
@horrorflickguy Cool! I know most of her lines by heart as well, especially this one (money for fantasies), lol 🤭
lannister84
@horrorflickguy Yes. Quite unfair. But like she said, what matters more than awards is to know if the movie stands the test of time, if people still remember it. Gladly, we all remember and love this movie and her amazing performance! 💙
lannister84
@horrorflickguy Indeed! She was snubbed by the Academy 😤
Truth
I love that line . . . you'll hate every other woman you touch.
Damn, where's my ATM card.
Sharon Tomajko
That's immoral. Prostitution is a sin. This film is sad especially since it is based on the reality of how humans degrade and abuse each other. God created us to live pure lives, full of honor and love- not lust, selfishness, and cruelty. We live a corrupt life of wickedness without God/Jesus.
Edwin Roman
That's another hundred!
lannister84
Truth - Amen, dude. I was thinking the same 😂
joe joe
