In September 2010, Pusha T signed to Kanye West's GOOD Music imprint, under the aegis of Def Jam Recordings. Later that year, he was featured on West's single "Runaway," which peaked at number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2011, he released his first solo project, the mixtape Fear of God, which was followed up with his debut solo album, My Name Is My Name, released in 2013. In November 2015, West appointed Pusha T to take over his role as president of GOOD Music. Pusha T remained a flagship artist for the label until ending his tenure with the company in 2022.
Pusha T has since then released three solo albums: King Push – Darkest Before Dawn: The Prelude (2015), Daytona (2018), and It's Almost Dry (2022), all receiving widespread critical acclaim; the latter was Pusha T's first number one debut on the Billboard 200.
SUICIDE
Pusha T Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah
I'm still a snow mover, blow harder than tuba
Designated shooters, turn weed to woolers
Condo in Atlanta, money counters like the NASDAQ
In that glass back, the motor is the ass crack
I'm still feeding divas like I feed the meter
Balance on the scale, I ain't a Libra either
I'm just a name and number with the means to reach ya
Grim Reaper, him cheaper, him chief of
His army, MCM on gym sneakers
You knowin that hymn better, he been preaching
You motherfuckers is bloodsuckers you been leeching
Been baller, been Jacob, been dealer
Been realer, pound sign, been trilla
All killer, no filler, been iller
Fraud niggas you zoolander, Ben Stiller
When it comes to shooters my niggas is trained to go
And they gettin' practice on bitches who breaking codes
35 hundred, just point and give them a name
They back flipping niggas, that go for rappers the same
You don't know me nigga, fuck out my way
Between renter and a homeowner
Hip Hop, we can cover any rolling stoner
Louboutins I heist nigga, or that bitch Winona
Stop comparing me to rappers cause they in their moment
Might of crossed the name brand every blue
But these brand names to a brand owner isn't new
Don't make us equal cause we shared a bitch or two
She ain't the angel that you think, she reincarnated too
I build mine off fed time and dope lines
You caught steam off headlines and co-signs
Young niggas cliquing up with my rivals
Like the bible don't burn like these bullets don't spiral
Like I can't see the scene that you mirror in your idol
But a pawn's only purpose is completely suicidal
Oh, suicide, it's a suicide
I'm just talking to the world like it's you and I
When it comes to shooters my niggas is trained to go
And they gettin' practice on bitches who breaking codes
35 hundred, just point and give them a name
They back flipping niggas, that go for rappers the same
You don't know me nigga, fuck out my way
Nothing but cash here, this sweater is cashmere
The roof is a translucent, it's nothing but glass there
The car is a concept, what's next is my last year
My future is bright hot, you never can last here
I'm top 5, listen, who hot in the past year?
Five heartbeats and I'm feeling like Flash here
Cause what I captured is the beast unleashed in the pasture
Story of the sheep and the wolves I un-master
Fifty in the liquor, unwrapped 'em
Unpacked, powder rise and it fall like Sebastian
Telfair, tailor-made suits hand crafted
Over Bottega Veneta, high tops unfastened
S550 drop top is unimaginable
To my hand drop and then he unattached it
Practice it, nigga brick, break down, break dance
Crab walk, back spin, tanner than my black skin
When it comes to shooters my niggas is trained to go
And they gettin' practice on bitches who breaking codes
35 hundred, just point and give them a name
They back flipping niggas, that go for rappers the same
You don't know me nigga, fuck out my way

Yeah, I just ordered one my nigga
I just placed an order for something

Designated shooters, turn weed to woolers
I have people that shoot others, and we sell weed too
Condo in Atlanta, money counters like the NASDAQ
I own a condo in Atlanta and count money like the NASDAQ tracks stocks
In that glass back, the motor is the ass crack
I drive a luxury car with a powerful motor
I'm still feeding divas like I feed the meter
I still give attention to high-maintenance women
Holy father to em, I ain't talking Jesus neither
I am like a spiritual leader to those who follow me
Balance on the scale, I ain't a Libra either
I am not a balanced person, and I am not born under the sign of Libra
I'm just a name and number with the means to reach ya
I am just someone you can identify by name or number, and I have the ability to contact you
Grim Reaper, him cheaper, him chief of
I am like the Grim Reaper, but cheaper, and the leader of my crew
His army, MCM on gym sneakers
My crew wears MCM sneakers while they work out
You knowin that hymn better, he been preaching
You should be familiar with this type of message, I have been preaching it
You motherfuckers is bloodsuckers you been leeching
You are all parasitic, you have been taking advantage of me

When it comes to shooters my niggas is trained to go
My crew is ready to act as hitmen if necessary
And they gettin' practice on bitches who breaking codes
They are using women who break codes as target practice
35 hundred, just point and give them a name
I can pay $3500 to have them go after someone I name
They back flipping niggas, that go for rappers the same
They can even kill other rappers if needed
You don't know me nigga, fuck out my way
You do not know me, so stay out of my way
Between renter and a homeowner
I am no longer just a tenant, I am a homeowner
Hip Hop, we can cover any rolling stoner
In the Hip Hop community, we can provide for any type of drug user
Louboutins I heist nigga, or that bitch Winona
I steal Louboutin shoes, and I could even steal from someone like Winona Ryder
Stop comparing me to rappers, cause they in their moment
Stop comparing me to other rappers, because they are only popular for the moment
Might of crossed the name brand every blue
I may have made mistakes and veered away from established brands at times
But these brand names to a brand owner isn't new
However, as a brand owner, I understand the importance of name brands
Don't make us equal cause we shared a bitch or two
Just because we have slept with the same woman, it does not make us equals
She ain't the angel that you think, she reincarnated too
That woman is not as innocent as you believe, she has also gone through changes
I build mine off fed time and dope lines
I have built my success off of being jailed and writing lyrics about drugs
You caught steam off headlines and co-signs
You have only gained popularity from headlines and other rapper's approval
Young niggas cliquing up with my rivals
Younger rappers are teaming up with my enemies
Like the bible don't burn like these bullets don't spiral
They think they are untouchable, but their actions will have consequences
Like I can't see the scene that you mirror in your idol
I can see through their facade and know that they are imitating their idols
But a pawn's only purpose is completely suicidal
These younger rappers are only being used for someone else's benefit, and it will lead to their downfall
Oh, suicide, it's a suicide
Their actions are leading to their own destruction
I'm just talking to the world like it's you and I
I am speaking to everyone as equals
Nothing but cash here, this sweater is cashmere
All I have is money, and even my clothing reflects that
The roof is a translucent, it's nothing but glass there
My car's roof is made of transparent glass
The car is a concept, what's next is my last year
My car is not even a real production model, and I am nearing the end of my reign
My future is bright hot, you never can last here
My future is bright and I am too powerful for anyone to compete with and last here for long
I'm top 5, listen, who hot in the past year?
I am one of the top rappers, and who else has been as successful as me in the past year?
Five heartbeats and I'm feeling like Flash here
I am feeling like the superhero Flash who has a fast heartbeat
Cause what I captured is the beast unleashed in the pasture
I have captured the essence of dangerous and wild animals running freely
Story of the sheep and the wolves I un-master
I have taken control of the situation and have put the dangerous ones in their place
Fifty in the liquor, unwrapped 'em
I have fifty pills in my bottle of liquor, and I have unwrapped them
Unpacked, powder rise and it fall like Sebastian
The pills are unpacked and the powder inside them is visible, much like how Sebastian Vettel falls and rises during races
Telfair, tailor-made suits hand crafted
I wear tailored suits that are handcrafted to fit me
Over Bottega Veneta, high tops unfastened
I prefer Bottega Veneta over other brands and I wear my high tops with the laces untied
S550 drop top is unimaginable
My S550 drop top car is beyond imagination
To my hand drop and then he unattached it
I drop my possessions easily and swiftly
Practice it, nigga brick, break down, break dance
Practice makes perfect, even when dealing drugs or showing off dance moves
Crab walk, back spin, tanner than my black skin
I can even perform unexpected dance moves while showing off my naturally tanned skin
