Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Told her she can't call for emergencies
I ace the job, for the currency
Keep flexing that's a burglary
Weed and drank be the perfect team
Weed and drank be the perfect team
Yeah its forth down
Talkin about the Titans
Right now
Right now
Tell niggas pipe down
Fuck the guns nigga
Blow loud
And I ain't saying you ain't gotta keep it on you
But the violence gotta stop
If you feeling what I'm holding
Life, youth, tell truth
Mind mine
Stay in booth
Block status stay tuned
Police watch our moves like
Let me show you around town a lil bit
Kinda hood
On the inside
She a nice lil chick
I love just how she move
And I love just how she groove
Took her under my wing
Now she don't know what to do
I took her to the east side
And I'm respected in the west
Could never be herself
But I told her be my guest
In this life babygirl
Move life we playing chess
That's how you separate from the rest
I mean
OT you so different
I fuck with you babygirl
Cause you know how to listen
Got me going crazy
Nigga might need a prescription
Friends sayin you need this
I think I fit the description
Shit like what you expect me to do
I stepped in to show you
What OT will do
But don't compare me to the rest
Just had to get that off my chest
Damn I miss the old days
I'm a new nigga stuck in my old ways
A nigga never changed like a court date
I told her let's start over shawty clean slate
We both grown baby this shit feel like somethin new
Where we go from here baby that's up to you
Shawty so cold yea I'm talkin about the flu
Couldn't trust hoes cause hoes like to lie
Then I met you became the apple of my eye
Must have wings cause girl you too fly
Girl you too fly
Cause you worth it
I see you in Gucci bags and Chanel fuckin purses
Let me take care of you like muthafuckin nurses
Yea so let me sing up on these verses
You can be my
Best friend

You can be my
Best friend
My best friend
You can be my
Best friend

Fasho
Definitely
Told her she can't call for emergencies
I made it clear to her that she cannot reach me for trivial matters
I ace the job, for the currency
I perform my job exceptionally well for the income it brings
Keep flexing that's a burglary
Constantly showing off can make you a target for robbers
Weed and drank be the perfect team
Marijuana and alcohol together create a strong, enjoyable experience
Yeah its forth down
The game is almost over
Talkin about the Titans
Referencing a football team
Tried to chew us out I ain't talking about trident
Someone tried to criticize us, but not in a playful way like gum commercials
Right now
In this moment
Tell niggas pipe down
Ask others to lower their voices
Fuck the guns nigga
Disapprove of gun use
Blow loud
Smoke marijuana openly
And I ain't saying you ain't gotta keep it on you
I'm not telling you to get rid of your weapon
But the violence gotta stop
However, we need to put an end to violence
If you feeling what I'm holding
If you understand where I'm coming from
Life, youth, tell truth
Value life, youth, and honesty
Mind mine
Focus on my own goals and well-being
Stay in booth
Stay in the recording studio to work on music
Block status stay tuned
Follow me for more updates and music releases
Police watch our moves like
The police monitor our activities closely
Let me show you around town a lil bit
Allow me to give you a tour
Kinda hood
This neighborhood is a bit rough
On the inside
Despite outward appearances
She a nice lil chick
She is a sweet girl
I love just how she move
I admire how she carries herself
And I love just how she groove
I enjoy how she dances
Took her under my wing
I began to guide and mentor her
Now she don't know what to do
She seeks my help in decision-making
I took her to the east side
I showed her a different part of town
And I'm respected in the west
I have a good reputation in my neighborhood
Could never be herself
She felt uncomfortable being herself before
But I told her be my guest
I encouraged her to be herself around me
In this life babygirl
In this journey we call life
Move life we playing chess
Life is a game of strategy, like chess
That's how you separate from the rest
Being strategic is how you stand out
I mean OT you so different
You are a unique individual
I fuck with you babygirl
I enjoy spending time with you
Cause you know how to listen
You are a good listener
Got me going crazy
You drive me wild
Nigga might need a prescription
I might need your companionship just like medicine
Friends sayin you need this
My friends think we are good for each other
I think I fit the description
I believe I am the right person for you
Shit like what you expect me to do
What would you like me to do?
I stepped in to show you
I got involved to show you something
What OT will do
What I, OT, am capable of
But don't compare me to the rest
But do not measure me against others
Just had to get that off my chest
I just had to express myself
Damn I miss the old days
I reminisce about the past
I'm a new nigga stuck in my old ways
I am trying to change, but having a difficult time
A nigga never changed like a court date
Some people never change, like a scheduled court appearance
I told her let's start over shawty clean slate
I suggested we begin anew without any past mistakes
We both grown baby this shit feel like somethin new
We are both adults, and this feels like a fresh start
Where we go from here baby that's up to you
Our future path depends on your decision
Shawty so cold yea I'm talkin about the flu
She is impressive, like the flu's ability to affect many people at once
Couldn't trust hoes cause hoes like to lie
I did not trust women who were not genuine
Then I met you became the apple of my eye
But when I met you, you became very important to me
Must have wings cause girl you too fly
You are so exceptional, you must have wings to fly
Cause you worth it
Because you are deserving
I see you in Gucci bags and Chanel fuckin purses
I can see you owning and enjoying luxury items
Let me take care of you like muthafuckin nurses
I want to be there for you and care for you like medical professionals
Yea so let me sing up on these verses
Let me express myself through this song
You can be my Best friend
I want you to be my closest companion
My best friend
My ultimate confidant
At the wedding imma need a best man
If we get married, I want you to choose my best man
A best man
My closest male friend or family member
You can be my best friend
I value your friendship above all else
My best friend baby
You are the best friend I could ever ask for
