Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Young nigga got lit
I'm in London, got my beat from London

Fuckin' nigga got lit
Young Phillip came runnin' out the bando rich
It's wintertime, I got the candle lit
Where manna go, gang go
Ay, I stay low, watch my stack grow, nigga got rich (woo, woo)
Young nigga came out the bando lit, I took risks (okay)
Pushed forward, the plan grew big
Big problems, nothin' that man can't fix (hey)
Young Philip came out the bando, bitch, he got lit (ay, six)
Young Phillip came out the bando rich

Came in like the man (man)
Your show, takin' all your fans (sorry)
Beg someone try and get my fans off me (bitch)
It depends, could they get the bands off me? (bands, never)
Your bitch dance on me
Talkin' shit, says she is a fan of me (go)
Tell my bodyguard get that fan off me
Told my bitch she can't stand with me, that's awkward (nigga, that's awkward)
Roll up the Backwoods (Backwoods)
Funny 'cause we only move forwards (yeah)
They used to ignore us (bitch, yeah)
Now, they adore us (bitch, yeah), we never lose focus (yeah)
Walk around now they applaud us (yeah)
The money's so moreish
The diamonds so flawless

Fuckin' nigga got lit
Young Phillip came runnin' out the bando rich
It's wintertime, I got the candle lit
Where manna go, gang go
Ay, I stay low, watch my stack grow, nigga got rich (woo, woo)
Young nigga came out the bando lit, I took risks (okay)
Pushed forward, the plan grew big
Big problems, nothin' that man can't fix (hey)
Young Philip came out the bando, bitch, he got lit (ay, six)
Young Phillip came out the bando rich

About a hundred bands on me, uh diamonds gon' dance on me, uh
Trip out to France on me, uh, look at this tan on me, uh
She got a plan on me, yeah, all of these brands on me
In the big truck when she throw that ass up and I bet she land on me
Don't fuck with the clique, man, that's homicide
Hammer time and you know that it's drummer time
Word up, we'll leave a nigga traumatized
A$AP and you know we got the mob ties
Right now, see you lookin' like a mob wife
Go half on a baby like all night
In the brand new Mercedes and it's all white
Man, I know they gon' hate me but it's alright
Man, I know they gon' hate me but it's alright
I done pulled up with the product from the archives
Nigga know a nigga buzzin' like a beehive
And you know a nigga stuntin' in a G5
And you know we can't stop 'cause we on the grind
We be gettin' it, got guap on the mind
I could take your bitch, you can't get one of mine
'Cause we gettin' lit, know a nigga finna shine, yeah

Fuckin' nigga got lit
Young Phillip came runnin' out the bando rich
It's wintertime, I got the candle lit
Where manna go, gang go
Ay, I stay low, watch my stack grow, nigga got rich (woo, woo)
Young nigga came out the bando lit, I took risks (okay)
Pushed forward, the plan grew big
Big problems, nothin' that man can't fix (hey)




Young Philip came out the bando, bitch, he got lit (ay, six)
Young Phillip came out the bando rich
