Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Já passa o zip-zip lock da minha bag
q dentro nois tem kush kush pronto pra queima

ja to na mo vibe yeah sabe como eh
pego minha parte yea pego o meu cash (2X)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of The Boy's song "ZIPLOCK" depict a lifestyle centered around drugs, money, fame, and the fast-paced nature of the music industry. The opening lines talk about passing the zip lock bag around, which contains marijuana (kush) ready to be smoked. The artist is in a carefree and relaxed state of mind, emphasizing that he is on his own vibe and knows how to enjoy life. He takes his share and collects his cash, indicating that he is involved in illegal activities for financial gain.

The song also touches upon the weight of carrying drugs in his bag, acknowledging the potential consequences and risks involved. However, despite the dangers, he cannot let go of the addictive nature of the lifestyle and the fame that comes with it. The artist knows what he is doing and understands that when he makes money, everyone wants more from him, highlighting the pressure and expectation placed upon successful individuals.

In the second verse, the artist mentions that there are rumors about seeing him on TV and working too much. He is busy and doesn't have time for distractions or leisurely activities. His hustle has become impressive, and he waits for the drugs to decrease in order to go up and perform his show, suggesting that the artist relies on substances to enhance his performance or cope with the demands of his profession.

Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of rebellion, indulgence, and living life on the edge, where fame and money come at a cost, making it difficult to break free from the vices and temptations that come with it.
