(Mustard on the beat, ho)
I'm that nigga with the plugs
I'm the nigga who got homies that be sellin' drugs
I'm the nigga on the back street
With the fat heat, niggas better run like athletes
I'm that nigga, I'm that nigga
I'm that nigga on the block
Police pull up, I'm tryna stash the Glock
Uh, you that nigga on the low-low
You the nigga, you're the one that be talkin' to the po-pos
Uh, Porsche sittin' on Forgi's
Niggas can't afford these
The Panamera shittin' on the 9-11
I call my homies, not 9-11
I'm that nigga with the juice
But I'll never do my nigga like Pac did Q
Bitch, who do you love? (4Hunnid)
Bitch, who do you love?
Bitch, who do you love?
Bitch, who do you love? (Champagne)
Bitch, who do you love?
I got a shorty named Texas Syn
She got a buddy named Young JB and now you know the deal
We turnt up in the studio late night
That's why the songs that you hear are comin' real tight
OVO crew, nigga, thought I told you
If you a player in the game, this should hold you
And man, shout my nigga Game, he just rolled through
Eatin' crab out in Malibu at Nobu
A lot of fools puttin' salt in the game
Until these women get the notion that they runnin' the game
They got money that they jumpin' on the pole to make
Did 'The Motto", took a flight to the golden state
I'm the general, just makin' sure my soldiers straight
Had to leave my nigga, homie got a open case
But I'm big on the west like I'm big in the south
So we gon' pay some people off, we gon' figure it out
And my name too big, and my gang too big
Young Money shit, me and Lil Wayne too big
I'ma crush that ass even if it ain't too big
I would pinky swear but my pinky ring too big, what's up?
Bitch, who do you love? (4Hunnid)
Bitch, who do you love?
Bitch, who do you love?
Bitch, who do you love?
Bitch, who do you love?
I'm that nigga, I'm that nigga
Bank of America account got six figures
I'm that nigga on the block
Fat heat, run like athletes
I'm that nigga, I'm that nigga
Bank of America account got six figures
I'm that nigga on the block
Bitch, who do you love?
Bitch, who do you love? (4Hunnid)
Bitch, who do you love?
Bitch, who do you love?
Bitch, who do you love?
Nigga, we street and we hood
Ain't nobody ever gave us shit
When you see us shinin' it's because we steady grindin'
We stay paper chasin'
Separatin' the real from the fake
The fake from the real
We livin' to die and dyin' to live
Nigga, that's why we got so many women
I'm tryna go deep, hit them ass cheeks
Bust them guts, make her cum
Bitch, you know the game
Ain't a motherfuckin' thing change
Bitch, who do you love?
Ayy, hold up
I done lost too many homies in these past couple years
This shit brazy
Rest in peace, my nigga CJ Mack
Rest in peace, my nigga Cedar Block Frog though (bool)
Rest in peace, my nigga Tiny M
And last but not least, rest in peace, my nigga Big Aaron
The lyrics to The Game's song "Who Do You Love" featuring YG and Drake are about self-promotion, boasting, and street credibility. The song is an ode to power, authority, and success. In the first verse, The Game reinforces his status as the self-proclaimed big shot, detailing his wealth, lifestyle, and involvement with drug dealers. He describes himself as the one with the power and suggests that he works hard to maintain his authority on the block. The chorus "Bitch, who do you love?" represents The Game's challenge to those who challenge his status as the king of the street.
The second verse is rapped by Drake, who begins by acknowledging that they are turning up in the studio, producing good songs. Drake is well-known for his affiliation with OVO, a music crew, and he mentions them here, as he reminds the game that being a player in the game demands putting in the work to make it. Drake walks us through the ways that he and his crew have made it, and how they navigate their power within the industry. The third verse is by YG, who confirms his status on the street by referencing people he has lost in his years growing up. He talks about how he and his friends have had to grind and hustle to get what they have, and they continue to put in work to succeed.
Overall, "Who Do You Love" is about the game of life and death and the important role that power plays in it. It is a swaggering boast about being the biggest thing in the game and being able to back it up with the necessary resources.
