Life is battleship I'm bound to win the game
Woah

They don't know this trouble
Gotta work these doubles, woah
Just so I get my momma

My son and babygirl
Yeah I know things have changed for you
I don't wanna play you
I'm working on my breakthrough
Got no time for you
I'm jumping through fiery hoops
Eating forbidden fruit
I'm living with no rules
This why this shit ain't cool
This shit getting reckless
Nobody respecting, bitch I am
A legend I know it's a blessing
But why it still got me stressing?
Wish I could cop a necklace, oh
Fuck all the pressure, woah
Niggas under pressure, oh
Fuck all the procession, woah
Niggas sleep like the session
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah oh yeah

The lyrics of "Watch Out" by Pi'erre Bourne are a warning to be aware of one's surroundings and not to trust anyone blindly. The repetition of "Watch out for your enemies, it could be your friends" emphasizes the importance of being vigilant and aware of who might be working against you. Bourne highlights the cutthroat nature of life, likens it to a game of battleship, and assures his listeners that he will always come out on top. He recounts his struggles and hard work to make a better life for himself and his mother, and suggests that his success has resulted in jealousy and betrayal from those he once considered friends.
The lyrics also touch on themes of love and loyalty, with Bourne acknowledging that his priorities have shifted and he may not have the same amount of time and attention for those he once loved. He asks his former significant other if they would still care for him if he moved on to someone else, and reminds them that he is focused on making his breakthrough in the music industry.
Overall, "Watch Out" is a cautionary tale about the importance of being aware of one's surroundings and not trusting anyone blindly, especially in a cutthroat industry like music.
