Holy Water
The Game Lyrics

My Phantom so mean
My car is so impressive and intimidating

Like I washed that motherfucker every Sunday in holy water
I take such good care of my car that it's as clean and pure as if it's been blessed with holy water

My Jesus piece clean
My religious necklace is also clean and impressive

Even my shoes are Christians, I'm walking on holy water
I only wear luxury Christian shoes which elevate me to a status of walking on holy ground

She came out them True Religion jeans
The woman I met was wearing expensive True Religion jeans

And fell straight to her knees like she was dipped in holy water
She was so amazed and impressed by me that she immediately fell to her knees in worship, like she's been blessed with holy water

Holy water
Reinforcing the idea that what he has is so impressive and special that it deserves to be blessed with holy water

Back when Michael Jordan was raw
Referencing a time when things were simpler and more authentic, like Michael Jordan in his prime

'92 was the year my city was city of God
Drawing a parallel between the city in which he grew up and the Brazilian movie 'City of God', where drug lords run the show

Coke on the boulevard, crack fiends skiing the slaloms
Describing the rampant drug culture in his city, where drugs are easily accessible and people are recklessly indulging in them

Is exactly how drug lords found their way from the bottom
The drug lords in his city started at the bottom and worked their way up through the drug trade, from small time dealers to powerful kingpins

Them Yeezy's drop got 'em, couldn't afford 'em you shot 'em
The release of Yeezy shoes caused a frenzy among people trying to get their hands on them, even leading to violence if someone couldn't afford them

'Cause they the same price as fucking red bottoms
The price of Yeezy shoes is comparable to Christian Louboutin shoes, which are also very expensive

We don't pop tags, leave that motherfucker on it
He doesn't remove the price tags from his clothes, showing off how much they cost

Return it back to the store when you no longer want it
Instead of keeping clothes they no longer want, they return them, showing that they have so much money that they don't need to keep anything they don't want

Sleep outside for days for a pair of J's
People are willing to go to great lengths to get their hands on a pair of Jordans

Then you sleep outside forever 'cause you got sprayed
If someone gets killed while waiting outside for shoes or any other material possession, they will never enjoy the fruits of their labor

If you gon' die for 'em, they better be some number 4's
If someone is willing to die for shoes or any other material possession, they should at least be valuable and rare, like Air Jordan 4s

Or some shit made in Japan you can never find in the stores
There are some items that are so rare that they can only be found in Japan, making them even more valuable and special

Rolex watches, Gucci belts, and Louis luggage
Listing high-end luxury items that set them apart from others

Definitely set us apart from niggas when we in public
The use of exclusive luxury goods sets them apart from ordinary people when they're out in public

Jeffery Campbell and Michael Kors got you looking rugged
Wearing less expensive shoes and accessories makes someone appear less stylish and can even make them look ragged

Gave her a Louis bag, now she love me
He used an expensive gift to win someone's affections

Take a look at her posin' on my car cause
She's showing off her new status as his partner and what comes with it, like his impressive car

Met a girl named Christian in some Christian, she a Christian
He met a girl named Christian in a Christian Louboutin store and she is religious

Suck a dick like sucking dick is her life's mission
She is promiscuous and enjoys oral sex frequently in her life

Trynna' save her ass like trynna' save a stripper
He is trying to help her and save her from her current situation, much like how people try to save strippers from their profession

She fine as fuck, you trynna' fuck, that's the reason you tip her
She is beautiful and attractive, and that is the only reason he tips her as a stripper

And all I'm sayin' is a watch and a gold chain
Implying that all it takes for someone to improve their status and attract women is some flashy accessories

Can't make Bobby Valentino, Johnny Coltrane
No amount of material possessions can make someone as talented and legendary as Bobby Valentino or Johnny Coltrane

And she knows this, that's why her mouth wide
The woman he's referring to knows that material possessions can't replace true talent, but she's still drawn to them

Openin' up her legs straight up like they suicide
She's so attracted to him that she's willing to do whatever he wants, even if it might hurt her or be destructive

I cross my heart and hope to die
Making a solemn promise

If something happens to my voice and can no longer provide
If he can't rap anymore, he'll be unable to earn a living

Should I run and hide? No hustle and survive
If he can't rap anymore, he won't give up, but instead he will find another way to make money and survive

Workin' 9 to 5 until sweat drips into my eyes
He's willing to work hard, even if it's a more traditional job, and struggle to earn a living

And if it burns like the kush, then I go back to sellin' pies
If things get tough and he can't make money any other way, he'll go back to selling drugs

Switchin' lanes in that Cutlass, rubbin' her thighs while I drive
He's driving a nice car and with a woman, enjoying his success and good fortune

Reminiscin' on the days I was rollin' broke
He's thinking back to a time when he didn't have money and struggled to make ends meet

Jesus piece on the rear view, holy ghost
Even in his past struggles, he had his Jesus necklace with him and it guided him through his difficulties

Amen!
An exclamation of agreement and support for his own success and growth
