Jumping Out The Gym
Rick Ross Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lebron whaddup, D. Wade whaddup
It′s the CREAM team, nigga!
50 racks a shift, three shifts a day, nonstop
Michael Corleone, Vito Andolini
Godfather, bitch, no nigga can see me
I'm mobbing in the streets like my name is Capone
Fuck the rap game, soon as my niggas come home
Balling like I′m Michael Jackson, I'm a psychopath
My black Lexus got another stash in it
Glock 40 for the shawties with the bad business
A-1 Yellow, got that jumping out the gym
Jumping out the coupe, why you think they after him?
Jumping out her panties, then she jumping on a dick
First 20 stacks a nigga get, he jumping on a brick
In “Jumping Out the Gym,” Rick Ross boasts about his wealth and success as he brags about his yellow A-1, which represents excellence and perfection. He references basketball superstar LeBron James and fellow basketball player Dwyane Wade, praising their achievements and aligning himself with their success. He also refers to his group as the CREAM team, a nod to the Wu-Tang Clan's 'Cash Rules Everything Around Me' slogan.
The chorus of the song includes bragging about making 50 racks, with three shifts a day, for a total of nonstop work. Ross compares himself to iconic movie characters Michael Corleone and Vito Andolini from the Godfather films, declaring himself untouchable by any other rapper. He then states that he’s mobbing in the streets like Al Capone, a notorious gangster known for his criminal activities during prohibition era America. Ross declares that his allegiance is to his fellow gang members, rather than to the rap game, and that once they are out of prison, they will dominate the game.
In the third verse, Ross brags about carrying $20 million in Nike bags and compares himself to Michael Jackson, saying he’s a psychopath with his balling. He then references his black Lexus vehicle, which has another stash in it, and declares that he has a Glock 40 pistol to keep enemies at bay. Finally, he references the yellow A-1 again, stating that it jumps out of the gym, and that he’s so successful at 'jumping' things that even women’s panties jump on his dick. Rick Ross paints a picture of an unstoppable force, cementing his status as a rap mogul.
