Yeah, yeah, yeah

Err body want to run their mouth
Telling hella stories about the things they did
Pull up on 'em, I'll show up on it
South son a nigga like I raised a kid
Only speak about it if I be about it
We can see about it, make it quick
When it come to spitting who the fuck you kidding
Y'all ain't never did it like I did
Internet, it made me rich
I'm getting richer, taking pictures
With some women, admit it, this life is different
You don't get it
Every sentence killing, make a couple million and quit it
Got niggas in Tippy tryna get it
The life of Futuristic, I can give it to 'em
Put a rapper on the team
Take 'em on tour, now he really into something
I been around the globe a couple times
I ain't had to sign but it's still an option
Got a lot of gwalla
Made a lot of dollars
Own a lot of land, Davy Crockett
Got your girly on a tour bus
She don't watch Barney but your baby bopping
Hit it then I get up on the road
I'ma do my dance like it's Sadie Hawkins
Boy I got the sauce, that's true
Girl, I'm living proof
Tie your tennis shoes, you tripping
I ain't in the mood nah
Y'all ain't really about this life
Took a couple notes from Tech N9ne
Young nigga got the best rhymes
Don't run your mouth for less right
Spit it like the cinnamon challenge
I was the kid with the talent
Now I can make it balance when I go out
Spittin' fire like a cigarette lighter
Got to get it in tighter
Want me to get up inside her
Then I got to bounce
Got six businesses, two houses
Mormon life, a few spouses
A cool account, still getting bigger
Ain't a damn thing you could do about it
I'm gone
All you do is talk, talk, talk
All you do is talk, talk, talk
All you do is talk, talk, talk

They don't be havin' it when nigga down on the gut
They be the people that talk up a lot of BS
And they really countin' me less
I can never shout it enough
Frickin' incredible hits, R-B
Rippin' a level, the kids hard me
Givin' the nation a big dark spree
When I make the music biz marquee
Innovator, I am not a criminal
This why they women wanna shot at genitals
I'm maximum, they sayin' I'm the minimal
We're talkin' cheaper than a Dollar General
Haters hearin' me spit it, shit it
Goin' ahead and admit it, quit it
Stay stalkin', they talkin'
Tellin' the people that I'm wicked, wicked
Fat stacks, we ballin'
That stacks be callin'
Rap after me, that's actually wack, that's why he stallin'
Rule is 'round to get hurt, ain't it?
Dudes around us since birth, tenant
True the lies'll get worse
Alarmin' then merk around for this shirt, painted
They don't know that when the planet drop
I'm 'bout to take the rap into a colder degree
Everything I ever wanted from the record business
They gon' hand it over to me
They gonna really see the soul of a G
Ridin' rowdy with the flow of the sea
Everybody want the musical virus
I give it to 'em like Ebola disease
I'm on a mission to get fish
Shoppin' up enough and I rip it to get swish
Anybody wanna become a gynecologist
They droppin', ain't if I actin' a big bitch
Try to rap me, I'd a pappy, why you 'ttackin'
'Cause you never knew a demon inside a black kid
And never ninja fuckin' with a flier record
Deep in America, anyone would die to trap me

I am on the phone (yeah)
Leave a message when you hear the tone
Hold up
If you wanna get it, then you get it

And they get the business
Don't do that
You messin' with us but it's too late
You not on our level, nigga, please just tie your shoelace
You trippin'
In "Talk," Tech N9ne and other artists like Futuristic talk about the prevalence of people who talk about having a certain lifestyle, but don't actually live it. While they are on top of the world, the artists criticize those who do not live out what they say. They also assert that they have worked hard to get where they are now and also send a message of motivation to their audience that they can achieve anything they set their minds to. The song talks not only about success but also about the challenges to get there.
The lyrics describe the attitude and determination of Tech N9ne and his featured artist, Futuristic. The song talks about how people like to talk about their accomplishments without actually doing anything meaningful. The two artists criticize this mentality and believe that actions speak louder than words. They believe that people need to work hard towards their goals, not just talk about them. In essence, the song emphasizes the importance of not just talking about one's dreams but also taking action and making them happen.
