Steve Aoki Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah yeah, flock
Gang, gang, gang, gang, gang, gang
What's that, what's that, what's that?
Gang, gang, gang, gang, gang
(Steve Aoki)
I got lots of gualla, I be gettin' dollars
Sonnin' all these boys like, Luke, I am your father
I feel like Darth Vader laughing at these haters
You ain't gettin' money, well, bye bye, I'll see you later
Diamonds in my chain, they got a bunch of different flavors
When I come outside, I swear I cannot see my neighbors
Walk out with my boxers and my robe to grab my paper
House, it is so big I spent and got a lot of acres
Started out with nothing, it ain't it hard to see
You ain't talkin' money, then don't talk to me
You ain't with the gang, then you can't rock with me
We just turned the gang into a colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
You ain't with the gang, then you can't rock with me
We just turned the gang into a colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
Gang into a, gang into a colony
You, you, you ain't with the colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
Gang into a, gang into a colony
You, you, you ain't with the colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
Yeah yeah, flock
Gang, gang, gang, gang, gang
ILoveMakonnen
Countin' freckles all night make my fingers hurt
I was never too clean for some dirty work
Ay, they was sayin' somethin' funny (hello)
Nah, they wasn't talkin' 'bout no money
If there's a issue, we could send more bottles
Every party worldwide filled with models
Super chef, where you goin' next?
I don't know, wherever there's a check
Started out with nothing, it ain't it hard to see
You ain't talkin' money, then don't talk to me
You ain't with the gang, then you can't rock with me
We just turned the gang into a colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
You ain't with the gang, then you can't rock with me
We just turned the gang into a colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
Gang into a, gang into a colony
You, you, you ain't with the colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
Gang into a, gang into a colony
You, you, you ain't with the colony
We just turned the gang into a colony
Yeah yeah, flock
Gang, gang, gang, gang, gang, gang




What's that, what's that, what's that?
Yeah, we just turned the gang into a colony

@SleepFan771

Steve Aoki's beat is nuts, Bok Nero's flow is nice. Like this one.

@jesslogan5616

nobody talks about how iconic this album was. and it's a shame because I stay having this on repeat

@morpheusdolant.8366

This is a bombass song! I'm replaying it over and over again,and now memorized it. Great.

@sherilynndupuis

Britain and France in the 1600s:

“We just turned this land into a colony,”

@teth.

Maybe completely irrelevant but I just find it interesting that with power there always comes decline.

@lameahhhh

Lol

@youngmasterzhi

And then we turn to slaves for our monarchy

And use them to help grow a sugar monopoly

If you ain't in our empire, don't f**k with me!

We raise the profits to boost our own economy
