Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Gang fight, if I cannot take 'em, got my chain right by me
My bitch sittin' shotty but no, this ain't lil' shawty (Oh no)
Choppa shy, will spray it, let him sing like he— (To-to-to)
Late night, I was servin' packs to get my change right (Yeah)
Gang fight, if I cannot take 'em, got my chain right by me
My bitch sittin' shotty but no, this ain't lil' shawty (Oh no)
Choppa shy, will spray it, let him sing like he love it (To-to-to)
Hit my wrist like Johnny (Bling)
Hear my name and they go dummy (Shake)
Bars go and buy you like a glitter in the [?]
I been trippin', geekin', I'm just killin' me for days
Poppin' Perkys, gettin' blazed, hit the stage, I'm goin' ape
For the money, I'm a slave, got my family and my gang (I do)
Truly independent, sold my soul to the gang (I did)
Got my shit together but I read like yesterday
I could go to rehab just to try and save my brain
But the music ain't the same,
Fans will fuck with me the same (They would)
Maybe I'm just trippin', but the truth is I'm in pain (I am)
I just need to get away
I can feel the reaper comin', know he want me in my grave
I was six 'til I lay
Late night, I was servin' packs to get my change right (Yeah)
Gang fight, if I cannot take 'em, got my chain right by me
My bitch sittin' shotty but no, this ain't lil' shawty (Oh no)
Choppa shy, will spray it, let him sing like he— (To-to-to)
Late night, I was servin' packs to get my change right (Yeah)
Gang fight, if I cannot take 'em, got my chain right by me
My bitch sittin' shotty but no, this ain't lil' shawty (Oh no)
Choppa shy, will spray it, let him sing like he love it (To-to-to)
The song "Late Night" by Shakewell depicts the life of a person who is involved in the selling of drugs, and the dangerous environment that comes with it. The lyrics are dark and gritty, painting a picture of late-night drug deals, gang fights, and the constant threat of violence. The opening lines "Late night, I was servin' packs to get my change right" and "Gang fight, if I cannot take 'em, got my chain right by me" show the need to protect oneself while making money in the drug industry. The line "My bitch sittin' shotty but no, this ain't lil' shawty" refers to a woman sitting in the passenger seat, but it is not a term of endearment like "little shorty" would be. Instead, it's a term used to refer to a female accomplice, who is ready to aid in violence if necessary. The line "Choppa shy, will spray it, let him sing like he love it" is a reference to the use of firearms and the willingness to use them if things get dangerous.
The second half of the song dives deeper into the rapper's inner struggles with addiction and the cost of living this kind of lifestyle. Lines like "Poppin' Perkys, gettin' blazed, hit the stage, I'm goin' ape" depict a self-destructive cycle that leads to an escape on stage. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the notion that danger is always lurking, and the price of making money can sometimes be too high. The line "But the music ain't the same, fans will fuck with me the same" refers to the idea that despite his current struggles, he feels pressure to continue living this lifestyle because of the expectation that comes with being a successful rapper.
Overall, "Late Night" by Shakewell portrays a juxtaposition of living dangerously to make money while simultaneously struggling with the weight of personal demons. It touches on the price of chasing success and the sacrifices made along the way.
