Move On
Rhymes Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody move
I'm in the building
And I make the hits for all the men, women and children
I don't mean to brag but I'm really I'm some great shit
I can even sing I could be up on some Drake shit
Just like this
And tell how everything is ironic that I did
Isn't it ironic that my voice is so iconic

The rhymes are most Ebonics but this beat is supersonic, I am
Just having fun though
Ice on my body like I'm going through a heat stroke
Poppin all these bottles cause we never planned on being broke
Young lungs full of smoke getting money cause we on
Knowledge over bullshit
And I pop it off like it's an automatic full clip
If you got it use it, spend it til it's useless
Why stop now Joe everybody moving
I'm popping all the bottles and breaking all the rules
When that bass beat bang, everybody move
320 On the dash when I float don't snooze
Cause I hit that fast lane and make everybody move
Everybody move, everybody move
Northside, Westside, everybody move
Everybody move, everybody move
Southside, Eastside everybody move
Everybody do it, everybody moving
Winning in this bitch
Ain't nobody losing
Lake shore driving 94 cruising
Sky is the limit cause the coupe so ruthless
Liquor in my system got me floating like a cruise ship
Club full of drugs you know everybody using
DJ run this back this some brand new new shit
If not then you real DJ Clueless
I be on some black blue shit
Murdering this track and this beat I abuse it
Chi hood murders never really make the news
Even when the blue and whites try to analyze my music
Cause I'm a muthafucking nuisance
Tearing' off ya head take ya brain give you new sense
Money over everything and knowledge over bullshit
So move out the way if you scared this a movement
I'm popping all the bottles and breaking all the rules
When that bass beat bang everybody move
320 On the dash when I float don't snooze
Cause I hit that fast lane and make everybody move
Everybody move, everybody move
Northside, Westside, everybody move

Everybody move, everybody move
Southside, Eastside everybody move

Overall Meaning

In Rhymes's song Move On, the rapper boasts of his prowess in the music industry as he creates hits for people of all ages (men, women, and children). He acknowledges his vocal ability- stating that he could be like Drake- and his iconic voice. Rhymes also highlights the irony in the fact that despite the prevalent use of Ebonics in his rhymes, the beat to the song is supersonic. He encourages people to enjoy themselves as they pop bottles and engage in other forms of enjoyment with the belief that knowledge triumphs over everything else. If people have something, he urges them to use it until it is no longer of use. The rapper reiterates his focus on having fun by his continuous use of the phrase 'Just having fun though.'

Rhymes further expresses his unwillingness to conform to societal norms or rules. He boasts of his wealth, including the ice on his body, and how he floats as he drives at a speed of 320 miles per hour. The artist shines a spotlight on social issues such as drug use and the lack of news coverage on the murders that occur in the ghetto. Furthermore, Rhymes sees himself as a maverick who does not abide by the law, as he describes himself as a "muthafucking nuisance" whom the blue and whites (the police) try to understand. He encourages people to join his 'movement' as he drops the final line of the song, "move out the way if you scared this a movement."
