[talking: T-Pain]
Wooh (birds chirping)
Such a beautiful day in the neighborhood
Never knew it could be such a... a bright and sunny day...
Till I put my chain on...
And then the watch...
LIGHTS OUT!

[DJ Khaled:]
This the Pree Ringz!
This Nappy Boy, bitch! (NAPPY BOOYYY)
(Pree Ringz, homie)
It's Nappy Boy!
(You never knew it could happen like this, mayn)
Talk to em!
Let's Go!

[T-Pain:]
Aye, aye, aye
Let a nigga sound nice on the track (track)
Let the chain around put the ice on the back (back)
Flip it back around put the ice on my chest (chest)
Ye ain't gotta ask do I rep my set... YES
Ye ain't gotta ask that bitch do you wanna have sex... YES
Ye ain't gotta ask Teddy Pain what he coming up with next... JEST
Sit back relax, and let a nigga do his S.H.I.T.
And I'm not cocky, but alot of niggas wouldn't have careers without me
So nigga don't doubt me, I gotta crib full of niggas that a take you down
And all they goin do with them coppers come through
and they say 'Pain wasn't even around'
DAMN!
How many niggas wanna test what I got (got)
You goin think it's a lightness storm when the mic is on (mic is on)
Ya bitch might get hard with a nigga with a dick thicker
than a Mike Tyson's arms (Tyson's arm)
I'm feeling kinda classy today,
let me take the ice watch off put the righten on (righten on)
But I'm feeling really nasty today,
I got a cup of that patron and I'm slightly gone (slightly gone)
So I zoom by these niggas in my Lamborghini,
I don't give a fuck what knid of bike he on (bike he on)
He really don't know what I got up under the trunk,
somebody better get a sidekicks on (sidekicks on)
Somebody go and get two toilets a new asshole just
might get torn (might get torn)

Teddy Pain I'm out this bitch, a new star just has be Reborn
(flashing cameras)

Overall Meaning

In T-Pain's song "Reborn," he starts off by describing a beautiful day in the neighborhood and how he didn't realize how bright and sunny it could be until he put on his chain and watch. However, as soon as he does, he declares "lights out," implying that he's about to show off his wealth and success. DJ Khaled introduces T-Pain as Nappy Boy and emphasizes that this is a time for celebration and showcasing their achievements.

T-Pain then jumps in and confidently asserts his skills on the track, expressing how he proudly wears his chain and puts the ice (diamonds) on his chest. He doesn't need anyone to ask if he represents his set or if he desires to have sex, as the answer is a resounding "yes" to both. T-Pain playfully adds that people shouldn't doubt him because many artists wouldn't have careers without his contributions. He mentions his crew who would take someone down when the police come around, emphasizing his loyalty and protection.

The lyrics continue with T-Pain boasting about his talent and how others will soon realize the storm (power) he possesses when the mic is turned on. He paints a vivid picture of his sexual prowess, likening his virility to the strength of Mike Tyson's arms. T-Pain then talks about his mood, feeling classy and slightly intoxicated, enjoying some Patron. He confidently speeds past others in his Lamborghini, unaffected by what kind of bike they ride.

Towards the end, T-Pain hints at having something hidden in the trunk that others don't know about, urging someone to get their "sidekicks" (supporters) ready. He concludes by declaring himself a "new star" who has been reborn, signifying a new phase in his music career and a testament to his ongoing success.
