Stay Dope
Prodigy & Alchemist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Smoking on something feeling like I hit the fucking bomb
I am the shit, what you thought was fucking wrong
Raise a hand at me, you gon' lose a fucking arm
He upset cause my music is fucking bomb
And my face make shortie turn fucking on
Stay calm and get some
Or you could get dumb, get going, get gone
And you won't get a standing ovation, get clapped
Yeah, he deserve an encore
And why not? These niggas acting like they want more
See they want me to be the bad guy
Robin Hood green I'm Peter Pan fly
Stop pulling on my wings, I'm trying to get high
Just do your little thing, I'll be out here doing mine
Getting doper by the day, get the fuck up out the way
When you see a real nigga like me (stay fly)
While you stuck on that craze I be on another page
I'll be on another wave (motherfuckers, they blind)
But I'mma stay dope
(Hey yo, open up another of them things man
Hey yo, P, spit up some new shit)
Hey, I stay dope
(Let's show 'em how we do shit
Dope music)
Yeah, I stay dope
Ok PCP
A strap, 400 pills and fake ID
Yeah I'm hotter than hellfire, I embrace violence
Give me a hug, come and get your face wired in
I get money on the barb
Apostrophe S, super fresh, triple X
Think before you move on that nigga, him next
He'll move before he think on you niggas, he a mess
Smoking that god bless, get lifted
High technology, I'm real nifty
Keep a little box stashed in the hybrid
She want a roll, I bring her ho-ass to my crib
She love a hood nigga getting money, she ain't fucking with no marks
And we could do it very well, 24 hours go hard
Getting doper by the day, get the fuck up out the way
When you see a real nigga like me (stay fly)
While you stuck on that craze I be on another page
I'll be on another wave (motherfuckers, they blind)
But I'mma stay dope
The lyrics to the Prodigy & Alchemist's song "Stay Dope" are a bit challenging to decipher at first. However, with a closer analysis, the message becomes clear. The song is about enjoying life to the fullest and doing your thing without worrying about what others think.

The second verse expands on these themes further. The artist talks about being "hotter than hellfire" and embracing violence. He acknowledges that he might be seen as a bad guy, but he doesn't care. He wants to be left alone to do his thing and get his money.

Moving thirty milligrams of something strong
I'm selling a potent substance
Smoking on something feeling like I hit the fucking bomb
I'm smoking something strong and feeling high
I am the shit, what you thought was fucking wrong
I'm confident in my abilities and know I'm great
Raise a hand at me, you gon' lose a fucking arm
Don't mess with me or you'll face the consequences
He upset cause my music is fucking bomb
Someone's angry because my music is really good
And my face make shortie turn fucking on
My appearance attracts women
Stay calm and get some
Be patient and have sex
Or you could get dumb, get going, get gone
Otherwise, leave and don't cause trouble
And I'mma be right here for when you get back
I'll still be around when you return
And you won't get a standing ovation, get clapped
Don't expect a warm welcome, because there will be none
Yeah, he deserve an encore
I deserve to be celebrated again
And why not? These niggas acting like they want more
People are acting like they want more of my music
See they want me to be the bad guy
Some people want me to be a villain
Robin Hood green I'm Peter Pan fly
I'm like Robin Hood and Peter Pan combined, rebellious and free-spirited
Stop pulling on my wings, I'm trying to get high
Stop holding me back from doing what I want to do
Just do your little thing, I'll be out here doing mine
You do your thing and let me do mine, we don't need to be in competition
Getting doper by the day, get the fuck up out the way
I'm improving and becoming better, so move aside
When you see a real nigga like me (stay fly)
When you see someone like me who's authentic and cool, stay impressed
While you stuck on that craze I be on another page
While you're caught up in something, I'm on another level altogether
I'll be on another wave (motherfuckers, they blind)
I'm ahead of the game and others are oblivious to it
But I'mma stay dope
I'm going to keep being cool and great
