Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Shawty Lo ft. Trey Songz's "Supplier" is about being the person who can provide anything and everything that people need in exchange for money. It talks about how the singer is always approached by people, who are hungry for something, and how he always satisfies their needs. The lines "Anything I want I can buy it, That's why I always keep bad women beside me" highlights the singer's wealth and his penchant for having women around him all the time. His status as the supplier is such that he is always called upon by his clients, who call him on his phone to get what they want. The chorus repeats the line "I got something that they need, I got something that they want, I got something that they need, Call me the supplier" several times to reinforce the concept of him being a provider of various things.


The first verse of the song begins with the singer referring to himself as a supplier and that he is always connected and up to date with what is available in the streets. He mentions his ability to provide what the clients need without resorting to traditional means. He then proceeds to take a jab at people who call themselves kings but are, in fact, liars. The lines "And I ain't talk cd's should of been...The way I hanlde them keys, Hey, hey You know I handle them keys and I anit talkin about a leash, but I play with them keys" refers to his ability to handle drugs and not about actual keys.


The second verse talks about how the singer is rich and how he lives an extravagant lifestyle. He mentions how people view him as a d-boy dream and how he is a hotshot in the current times. The lines "I'm the hottest right now, I feel the blow like cold wind, There's a blizzard in my city, yeah, the h snowed in" highlights his status as a supplier and how he feels about it. The third verse is performed by Lil Wayne, who keeps up with the main narrative of the song and talks about how he could be a part of the singer's life too.
