Remy Ma Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You look like a bitch gotcha face all bent up
I like a pimp got my gators and my pimp
You take orders and run errands
I take vactions with killers and four time felons
You outside on line like where the weed
I'm inside getting high V.I.P stats
You where the rats and the D's at
[Verse 1:]
Ayo the girl spits harder than most dudes
I give it to you on any given Sunday like soul food
I ain't even gotta double my vocals
I do a main scence that lives and the rest is produce
I'm in the booth wit no shoes and my chain be bangin the mic so I don't got on no jewels
I'm so hot and I done told you
You ain't no kiddin to me so basically I don't know you
You don't know me homie I clap you with yo heat
If this was a lake
I'd be a mother fucking Ojay
Set off the sirens form thy alliance
Its a four alarm blaze and I'm on fire
I was talking to Kanye and I heard the wire
That I'm the truth and your a liar
I'm the queen of rap and there is none higher and all you slut bag hoers should call me sire
[Hook 1X]
[Verse 2:]
I'm like fuck that this is it
All these other chicks is wack and I'm the shit
See I'm from New York so I repped the Knicks
I'mma I'mma Husslin I could get them bricks
They say my flow is crazy and I could spit and I rap as if I had a dick
Bitches is bad but I'm that bitch
Listen I'm so above the average
Now my walk is mean but my whip is sick
I can't stand a clown but I love a trick
I see a group of dudes and I take my pick
Like you you and you with the Timbs hi nice to meet you my name is Rem
I don't drive a caddy but I'm stuntin like a pimp struct
With a diddy bop looking something like a lick
I cleaned up my money now I'm filthy fucking rich (shit)
[Hook 1X]
[Verse 3:]
See I'm from where niggas stash packs in the backs of their ball sack and pump crack, yak, D, weed and that
Put more baking soda in there coke to get more back
Roc Timberlands uptowns White Tees and sports hats
We kill all rats tell lies cheat and steal
Tints pitch black even gotta em on the windsheild
Liscense suspended Vehicles rented
Warrants open cases several offenses
No phone no cable notices of eviction
Parents is addicted kids don't listen
No rules no school no food in the kitchen and the staircase and elevator smell like piss
You can only talk tough if you do tough things
If you ain't from around here you better tuck them blings
Only difference between me and you is that I got out the hood but the hood is still in me
[Hook 1X]
In Remy Ma's song "I'm in 2-3," the lyrics are packed with fierce bars that highlight her confidence, skills, and come-up from the streets. The song opens with an aggressive tone, as she addresses someone who she thinks looks weak and submissive, while she adopts the style of a pimp, wearing gators and running with killers and four-time felons. She contrasts her V.I.P status and pride in being surrounded by O.Gs, with the image of someone who is searching for weed and needs to follow orders. Remy's self-assured demeanor and delivery are on full display in the bridge, where she claims that she's one of the best lyricists out there, and threatens anyone who doubts her skills.
In the first verse, Remy showcases her flow and delivers witty punchlines in rapid-fire succession. She emphasizes that she doesn't need to double her vocals, but her main scene and the production are enough to match the intensity and quality of her rhymes. She implies that she's richer and more famous than her haters, who she doesn't care to acknowledge or show any respect to. She uses wordplay to call out pretenders who don't know her or her background, and warns them not to cross her. In the second verse, she touches on her pride in being from New York and rooting for the Knicks. She boasts that she can hustle better than anybody else, and that she spits hard like a man, but with a unique style and perspective that sets her apart. She confesses that she's picky about the guys she chooses to hang out with, but when she does, she makes sure to be friendly and approachable. She ends the verse with another brag about her success and influence, saying that she's filthy rich and unstoppable.
In the last verse, Remy provides a glimpse into the gritty reality of living in the hood, where drugs, poverty, and crime are rampant. She describes the way people survive by selling drugs, evading the law, and resorting to violence. She alludes to the lack of resources and opportunities that make it difficult to break the cycle of poverty, and the social problems that come with it, such as addiction and neglect. She highlights the challenges of growing up in such an environment and the fact that she was lucky to escape it, but that she remains connected to her roots and aware of the issues that people face.
Overall, Remy Ma's "I'm in 2-3" is a hard-hitting statement of her skills, pride, and tough persona, set against the backdrop of the rough streets where she came from. The song showcases her ability to deliver complex rhymes at a rapid pace, while sharing a personal story of overcoming adversity and achieving success. The lyrics are full of references to hip-hop culture, street life, and the struggles of marginalized communities, making it a powerful statement of resilience and empowerment.
