Prodigy The Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stand up
If you don't like what I'm saying then buck
Swing when you see me we can throw them hands sucker
Stand up
If you didn't notice nigga, I don't give a fuck
If I said it then I meant it and what fuck nigga
Stand up
Hit you and your mans up, make it hard for niggas to
Stand up
Tell your crew they don't want it with us dude
And if them motherfuckers do, bust a motherfucking move
Stand up
[Verse 1: T.I.]
You got a gator mouth and a hummingbird ass
Your mouth writing checks that your ass can't cash
145 and I'm out of your weight class
Want to survive, you better scramble like eggs and break fast
Cause I know how to handle your fake ass
I'm a ride on you and hide you in yesterday's trash
Pull up in the Chevy's spraying rounds through the glass
See you laying face down in the grass and I'll laugh
Ha, cause that's the end of the saga
The end of my problems, nigga mash the Impala
Go lay up with a model and watch the news tomorrow
And that's the end checkmate, game over, I'll holler
Pimp, telling you partner, you don't know what you're doing
Or recognize the trouble you getting in to and you're ruin
And dig this man
I spent my childhood in a wild hood
And all that gangster shit you talking, yeah, it sound good
But make it understood
You gone have to show me, I'm a O.G.
You want to overthrow me
[Chorus]
[Verse 2: Trick Daddy]
Dearly beloved, we're gathered here today
To marry this young nigga in his own special thug way
Do you promise to love and respect all of the real niggas
And when a problem come, learn to deal with 'em
Do you swear to turn this chopper
On any motherfucker in your path, or the bitch that's trying to stop ya
Or do you promise to keep him handy
And don't hand him to nobody, nobody except family
And keep him cocked and loaded and don't expose him to no body
Unless somebody, who want him in his body
To love and cherish and from this trigger to a barrel
From the bottom of your heart
'til death do you fuckin' part
Do you understand to live, to lie by him
Is to share your soul, Lord knows, you gone die by him
I know you heard gun stories about John Wayne and Billy the Kid
Shit, all them motherfuckers dead
And did you know that every other bitch from the Wild, Wild West
End up dying from hollow points to they fuckin' chest
Cause I ain't never seen a cock beamer meant for a team of tummy guns
With a hundred round fuckin' drum
[Chorus]
[Verse 3: Lil' Wayne]
Shit, I'm talking about riding out tonight
Only way I die first, got to kill me in this verse
Weezy F middle finger to life
So nothing seem critical in the hood I'm typical
Yet I'm feeling good and spiritual
Healing hoods with this shit up out my kitchen
I'm pitching that it's really good
Smoking, drinking, I'm like a fish
And I'll probably shit on ya bitch
Probably piss on her lips and she probably give you a kiss
Nasty, Holly Grove classic
Polly wood a nigga probably robbed the same bastard
Ask him
We don't give a fuck about a casket
Nigga this the murder campy
Niggas is murder happy
12 years old, I jumped off the pot
I started selling rock right after I got shot
I had to hold my weight down
Pussy nigga stand up or lay down
[Chorus]
The song "Stand Up" by Prodigy The features T.I., Trick Daddy, and Lil' Wayne. The chorus encourages listeners to stand up and face consequences for their actions, while also warning those who would try to mess with them to be prepared for retaliation. T.I. delivers the first verse, calling out those who talk big but can't back it up. He also boasts about his own abilities to take care of business. Trick Daddy takes the second verse, focusing on the importance of loyalty and the use of guns. He asks whether the listener is willing to commit to using their weapon when necessary and to protect it at all costs. Lil' Wayne finishes off the track with a verse about his own experiences growing up in a tough neighborhood and his willingness to do what it takes to survive.
Overall, the song is a message to anyone who would disrespect or underestimate the artists involved. It's a declaration of strength and a warning not to mess with them. The repetition of the phrase "stand up" throughout the chorus reinforces the idea that it's important to face challenges head-on and not back down.

Dearly beloved, we're gathered here today
We're here to talk seriously
To marry this young nigga in his own special thug way
Make a thug out of this young man
Do you promise to love and respect all of the real niggas
Will you be loyal to real people
And when a problem come, learn to deal with 'em
And handle problems well
Do you swear to turn this chopper
Will you use this gun
On any motherfucker in your path, or the bitch that's trying to stop ya
To shoot anyone who gets in your way
Or do you promise to keep him handy
Or keep the gun close
And don't hand him to nobody, nobody except family
And only give it to family
And keep him cocked and loaded and don't expose him to no body
And keep it ready and hidden
Unless somebody, who want him in his body
But if someone is a threat to you, use it against them
To love and cherish and from this trigger to a barrel
To care for the gun and the power it holds
From the bottom of your heart
til death do you fuckin' part
Forever and with all your life
Do you understand to live, to lie by him
Do you understand the consequences of having a gun
Is to share your soul, Lord knows, you gone die by him
Is to risk your life every time you use it
I know you heard gun stories about John Wayne and Billy the Kid
You've heard about famous gunslingers
Shit, all them motherfuckers dead
And they all died from guns
And did you know that every other bitch from the Wild, Wild West
And every other person from that time
End up dying from hollow points to they fuckin' chest
Died from gunshot wounds
Cause I ain't never seen a cock beamer meant for a team of tummy guns
I've never seen a gun meant for a peaceful team
With a hundred round fuckin' drum
With the capacity to hold one hundred rounds of ammo
Shit, I'm talking about riding out tonight
I'm ready to fight right now
Only way I die first, got to kill me in this verse
I won't die unless someone kills me with their words
Weezy F middle finger to life
I don't care about life
So nothing seem critical in the hood I'm typical
I'm just like everyone else
Yet I'm feeling good and spiritual
But I feel great and in touch with my spirituality
Healing hoods with this shit up out my kitchen
I'm making things better with my music
I'm pitching that it's really good
I'm selling it as amazing
Smoking, drinking, I'm like a fish
I drink and smoke heavily
And I'll probably shit on ya bitch
And I'll disrespect your girlfriend
Probably piss on her lips and she probably give you a kiss
And she'll still be with you despite my actions
Nasty, Holly Grove classic
I'm from a rough neighborhood and proud of it
Polly wood a nigga probably robbed the same bastard
I might have stolen from the same person as you
Ask him
Go ahead and ask him about it
We don't give a fuck about a casket
We don't care about death
Nigga this the murder campy
This is a place where people get killed
Niggas is murder happy
People here are too willing to kill
12 years old, I jumped off the pot
I started selling drugs very young
I started selling rock right after I got shot
I started selling drugs after being shot
I had to hold my weight down
I had to keep up with the competition
Pussy nigga stand up or lay down
Be strong or be weak, it's up to you
