Take It Down
Pardison Fontaine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My bitch is unapproachable
When I shoot my Uzi man
I do that lil' shoulder move
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
Break it down
Make it sound, make it sound, 5 AM
I said I'm moving like a soldier move
My bitch is unapproachable
When I shoot my Uzi man
I do that lil' shoulder move
Your bitch ain't gon' fuck with you
She stopped because I told her to
Niggas look like income tax
Can't wait to get a hold of you
Yellow dreads, who is you
Holla back (whoody hoo)
Brought her here, Uber black
Send her back, Uber pool
She might get Olive Garden
Pussy taste like Jamba Juice
Baby mama on my body
Even more than my masseuse
Look, blessed and anointed (facts)
Nigga how you want it?
Don't make me call up Ghost
Somebody gettin' haunted
I heard she fucked some other nigga
She just end up disappointed
Got these pussies pocket watching
Like our bank account is jointed
Look, 'fore a nigga popped
I was sleeping on a cot
Look now I got it lit
100 watts in the spot
Look, know that I'm that nigga
But I be acting like I'm not
I got tats all on my belly
I be feeling like I'm (y'all know who the fuck I am)
I be flexing like a wrestler
Charged up like a Tesla
Switching up my hoes
I dumped Siri for Alexa
Look, my next baby mama look like Evelyn Lozada
Nigga, I'm the perfect age to get the daughter and the mama nigga, ay
Look, niggas talking crazy when I'm not around
'Round them tame niggas you be acting wild
Heard I wanna clip his shorty, other way around
5 AM at La Coppelia, man, I'm 'bout to take it down
Make a sound, ou, ou
Make a sound, ay, ou
Make a sound, I'm about to take it down
Play town with baby Jordan
Only time we play around
5 AM at La Coppelia, man, I'm 'bout to take this
Offset
Ain't no time for games
Racks they find remains
Young niggas wild not tamed
Fifty round, drop my nuts, let it hang
I'm not a rapper that's broke with the fame
She got good throat, what's her name?
Don't even aim with the stick, we swing
I put a M in and it fuck up the bank
Be quiet, I'm too famous, so fly on the private
I got sticks in this bitch we get violent
I'm a black man, get hate by society
Icon they admire me
Chopper a python, poison ivy
Drip in my vein, not no IV
A million dollars don't excite me, yeah
They put me on HYPEBEAST
Watch your bitch 'cause she tryna bite me
I'm too rich so don't try to fight me
I got sticks, get put on a white tee
Shoot up the scene like Spike Lee
I was just in a dream, now it's like me
Color money like Monopoly
I pray to God that these demons get off of me
Look, niggas talking crazy when I'm not around
'Round them tame niggas you be acting wild
Heard I wanna clip his shorty, other way around
5 AM at La Coppelia, man, I'm 'bout to take it down
Make a sound, ou, ou
Make a sound, ay, ou
Make a sound, I'm about to take it down
Play town with baby Jordan
Only time we play around
5 AM at La Coppelia, man, I'm 'bout to take this motherfucker
The song "Take It Down" is performed by Pardison Fontaine featuring Offset, and it's a song that is mostly about their fame and wealth, and how they're living the life that they always dreamed of. In the first verse, Pardison Fontaine expresses how he's living like a soldier and his woman is unapproachable. He uses a simile to compare himself to a soldier who moves with precision and purpose. He also describes how he does a little shoulder move when he shoots his Uzi. He then goes on to talk about his wealth and how he is able to send his woman back in an Uber pool even though he brought her in an Uber black. He even mentions how his baby mama is on his body more than his masseuse. He is confident and feels blessed and anointed, and doesn't hesitate to call up his "Ghost" to haunt someone who crosses him.
Offset also contributes to the song by talking about his wealth and success. He bluntly declares that he's not a broke rapper and that he has a million dollars that don't excite him. He describes how he's too famous to be in public without a private plane and how he has sticks (guns) that can be put on a white tee. He also talks about how he prays to God to get rid of the demons that are chasing him. Like Fontaine, Offset is confident and unapologetic about his success.
The song is a mixture of boastful lyrics, metaphors, and similes that convey the artists' level of fame and their luxurious lifestyles. The instrumental includes a simple but catchy melody that complements the lyrics well. The chorus is very repetitive, consisting mostly of "make a sound" repeated over and over again. Overall, the song is meant to be enjoyed for its catchy beat and braggadocious lyrics.

5 AM at La Coppelia, man, I'm 'bout to take it down
People talk smack behind my back, and those you think are easygoing are actually on edge. I've been misunderstood - it's not me wanting to take someone's girl. I'm up late and ready to take control.
Make a sound, ou, ou
Make a sound, ay, ou
Make a sound, I'm about to take it down
Play town with baby Jordan
Only time we play around
5 AM at La Coppelia, man, I'm 'bout to take this motherfucker
I'm getting people hyped up and trying to have a good time before taking charge and getting what I want in the early morning.
