I chunk up the deuce for the South and the North
Boys talkin down and boys wanna hate
I chunk up the deuce for the South and the North
Boys talkin down don't make me pull out the choppa
I chunk up the deuce for the South and the North
Boys talkin down I'll leave em on the streets dead
I chunk up the deuce for the South and the North
Boys talkin down I got them diamonds in my mouth

Well it's that grain grippa from Houston, Tex
That bar sippa, that bar no plex

And that ain't snow, baby that's my chain

And that's not a snowcone, that's my ring

Cuz I'm a hustla til I'm in the soil
My wrist game is one of a kind
Patek Philippe worth 100K

No 401K for a hustler
Just bleed the block and stack that paper

And a 40 cal when it come to haters
We authentic players not counterfeit
Got a 600 Benz with a fall kit
Got hoes at the HK turnin tricks
Out runnin the tracks tryina make me rich
I'm too legit to quit
Stackin up that paper til I'm gone
So I'ma be workin wood wheel and catchin splinters
Ridin 20 inches or better of chrome

I chunk up the deuce for the South and the North
Boys talkin down and boys wanna hate
I chunk up the deuce for the South and the North
Boys talkin down don't make me pull out the choppa
I chunk up the deuce for the South and the North
Boys talkin down I'll leave em on the streets dead
I chunk up the deuce for the South and the North
Boys talkin down I got them diamonds in my mouth

(Don Ke!)
Houston Tex got the streets burnin
Poppin seals with them 4's turnin
Rookie boys they still learnin
Losin' cash, I'm still earnin
Get my bread while I shake the fed
Keep them dimes in and out my bed
Jump in the drop to convert the top
And let em bop on candy red
Leather seats with that wood out
They don't know what my hood 'bout
Tryin to take the young Don's spot
I'm platinum ball and still hot
Haters off in my mix again
Pimpin broads plus pimpin pens

Keep that ice lookin clear as gin

Just pass the mic and I'll let it loose

Overall Meaning

"Chunk up a Duece" is a song by Paul Wall that is a tribute to the South and the North regions of the United States. The song is about not tolerating disrespect from anyone towards the North and South regions. The lyrics highlight the struggle that the two regions went through in the 80s and how they have managed to bounce back. As the song progresses, Wall talks about his own accomplishments, his diamond-encrusted grill and luxurious lifestyle. The lines "Boys talkin down don't make me pull out the choppa / I'll leave em on the streets dead" serve as a warning to anyone who talks down on the South and the North.


The song is essentially a regional anthem for Southern Rap, and it serves as Paul Wall's homage to his native Texas, which plays a significant role in the song. The lyrics depict the lifestyle of Southern rap, with many references to cars, chains, and guns. The song also includes a lot of slang that is associated with the Southern rap scene, such as "chunk up" (raise) and "4's" (24 inch wheels). However, the song's most significant point is its defense of the South and the North against critics who seek to denigrate the culture and the region.
