Let's get it started, let's go dumb and retarded
Let's get high as we wanna, let's go and burn up a forest
Girl there’s other precautions, get the car it’s inside it
Let's put some ice on your watch and designer on your body
Let's order bitches and bottles, bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, let's order bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, let's get it started

I’m turned up till my knob broke say turn down I say nah ho
My neck rocking like Balboa, my watch official, it's uncalled for
In the same regions on all floors, I got six sluts on all fo'
They french kiss and say bonjour I got my own shine but I want yours
I’m stupid rich, got stupid bitches, you stupid thick, in Louboutin'
Don’t like me, fuck you again, wanna fight me well come do it then
Right hand to God on everything I see the hearts of men and they bear lame
I won’t entertain no punk shit, they talk shit and I run it
Boy you tryin’ to get what I been here, headed down with like ten here
I’m to answer this unreal let’s say one album and like ten mill
Plus my swag is stupid low IQ gone, heard nigga bailin’ all try to gone
But when you ballin’ like I do, you know something nigga, they don’t like you

Let's get it started, let's go dumb and retarded
Let's get high as we wanna, let's go and burn up a forest
Girl there’s other precautions, get the car it’s inside it
Let's put in ice on your watch and designer on your body
Let's order bitches and bottles, bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, let's order bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, bitches and bottles
Bitches and bottles, let's get it started

Sittin' on like a hundred mil, I treat that shit like whoopie cushion
Ballin' on them fuck niggas, they on the bench I bench press em’

The best things in life are free, free my nigga Boosie, gone

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to R Kelly ft Ace Hood DJ Khaled’s song “It’s On” are about indulging in luxury and excess. The first verse talks about getting started with partying and getting high, and then getting more and more extravagant by ordering expensive things like cars, watches, and designer clothes. The chorus emphasizes the desire to order “bitches and bottles” and get the party going, while the second verse by Lil Wayne maintains a similar energy, mentioning lean (a type of cough syrup often used recreationally), liquor, and comparing his association with the hip hop label Cash Money Records to a marriage. The lyrics as a whole are about living life with reckless abandon and getting caught up in the more hedonistic aspects of fame and wealth.

The overall meaning of the song is not particularly deep or complex, instead relying heavily on the sense of urgency and excitement that is conveyed through the lyrics and the beat. The song is very much a party anthem, and the emphasis on getting high, drinking and ordering women and alcohol sets a hedonistic, overindulgent tone.

Some interesting facts about the song, "It's On," are:

- The song features R&B singer R Kelly, rapper Ace Hood, and producer DJ Khaled.

- The song was released as a single in 2013 and was part of DJ Khaled's album "Suffering from Success."

- Despite its modest commercial success, the song received mixed reviews from critics, with some praising its energy and others criticizing its subject matter and lack of depth.

- R Kelly's vocals on the chorus are reminiscent of his earlier work from the '90s and 2000s, as opposed to the more rapped verses by Ace Hood and Lil Wayne.
