It is clear from the opening lines that the song is a reflection of the rapper’s struggles to make it in the cut-throat music industry. The lines "Every day is a struggle, we dread the day, and pray we make it through the night" convey the difficulties that come with trying to succeed in a highly competitive industry.


The song also alludes to the hopelessness that many young black men feel growing up in poor, violent neighborhoods. Lines such as "Hard times livin' in this bad land of mine" and "A lot of my brothers are buried, a lot of 'em in their prime" serve as a reminder of the harsh realities of life in some inner-city neighborhoods. The rapper's anger and frustration are palpable as he spits lines like "My money be funny just laughin' at niggas" and "Terroristic, risk getting [?] Osama."


Despite the violent content of the song, there is an underlying message of triumph and perseverance. Lines such as "I'm on the roof, I'm big-headed so the coupe never had a roof" and "We all with the bullshit and I'm the boss, when I holla shake down we gonna set it off" convey a sense of pride and determination, suggesting that the rapper is unafraid of whatever obstacles come his way.


Overall, "With the Bs in 2-3" is a gritty, raw portrayal of the struggles faced by young black men trying to make it in the music industry and in life more generally.
