Jordan
The Wave Lyrics

Yeah, yeah
An affirmation, signaling readiness and enthusiasm.

Aye, look
An invitation to pay attention; the singer is about to share something important.

I had a pen and a plan
I was prepared with ideas and strategies to succeed.

When n***** was just playing
While others were unserious and casual in their approach.

In this game of life
In the serious journey of life and its challenges.

They can't see the cards in my hand
Others are unaware of my true intentions and capabilities.

N***** going against me
People are opposing me.

Must've contemplated suicide
Their actions are so extreme they might have considered giving up.

Drive-by in a Tesla
Using a sleek, modern vehicle to signify both success and danger.

I call that s*** the electric slide
Referring to this action with a clever name that underscores its modernity.

I don't own it yet
I haven't fully achieved my goals but I'm working towards them.

Doesn't mean I cannot manifest
I still have the power to create the life I desire.

Like throwing on a sweater
It's as easy as putting on something familiar and comfortable.

I'm putting on for my crew next
I'm representing and supporting my friends and team in my journey.

Getting to the top
Aiming for success and reaching my goals.

I don't give a f*** who you think next
I am unconcerned about others’ opinions on who should be in the spotlight.

Get yo b**** in line
Ensure your woman respects boundaries and doesn't overstep.

Trying to kiss on my f****** neck
Someone is trying to get too intimate or familiar without permission.

Woah
An expression of surprise or disbelief.

H**
Addressing someone casually, suggesting familiarity.

Slow yo roll
Take it easy and be more considerate in your actions.

I ain't got time
I am too busy for distractions or drama.

For no crazy a** h**
I won't entertain irrational or troublesome people.

B****** so sneaky
People here are deceitful or deceptive in their actions.

You already know
It's clear and understood how people behave.

If she f****** for the clout
If she's being intimate with someone just to gain fame or recognition.

Got to get her exposed
She should be revealed for her true motivations.

Lately, I've been
Recently, my state of mind or situation has shifted.

In my zone
I am focused and in tune with my purpose.

If I'm in the stu'
If I’m in the studio creating music.

Don't be hitting my phone
Do not disturb me with calls or messages while I work.

Now my shawty tripping
My girlfriend is overreacting or acting insecure.

She thinking I'm with some b******
She suspects I am being unfaithful.

I'm like, hold up baby girl
I’m asking her to pause and reconsider her assumptions.

We finna get to the richest
We are on the path to achieving wealth and success.

Aye
An expression of affirmation or enthusiasm.

Poppin' my s*** since a youngin, youngin
I've been making waves and gaining attention since I was young.

Learned a lil sauce from my cousin, cousin
I acquired some unique skills or flair from a close relative.

Got it on my own, now I'm stunning, stunning
I achieved my success independently and now I shine brightly.

Twenty three, balling like Jordan, Jordan
At the age of twenty-three, I am excelling in my field like the basketball legend Michael Jordan.

I'm on point
I am focused and precise in my actions.

Like I'm guarding Dame
I am as alert and defensive as if I were guarding a top player (Damian Lillard) in basketball.

My bro a two guard
My friend plays a key role, similar to the shooting guard position in basketball.

N**** like to shoot up things
Some friends engage in reckless or violent behaviors.

N***** start tripping
People become confrontational or unstable.

Put a end to it in minutes
I resolve conflicts quickly and decisively.

Now my partner do you dirty
Now my friend might betray or harm you.

Now you leaking from your kidney
This could lead to serious consequences, possibly implying physical violence.

Man I tried to be different
I attempted to set myself apart from others.

Than the n***** in the city
In contrast to others around me who follow the crowd.

Seen a whole lot of s***
I've witnessed many challenges and experiences.

Lot of hate, lot of envy
There's a considerable amount of jealousy directed toward me.

Got a couple n***** jealous
I have some individuals who feel threatened by my success.

Ain't nobody f***** with me
No one can compete with or challenge me effectively.

Get rich or dye trying
I'm determined to attain wealth, even if it means facing risky situations.

We been lookin' up to 50th n****
We've admired and aspired to emulate successful figures like 50 Cent.

I had some ex's who wished me the worse
Previous relationships included individuals who were unsupportive and wished for my failure.

Tables turned
The situation has shifted to my favor.

Now them b***** be playing me
Now those same individuals are acting differently, possibly trying to come back.

I never thought that I would see the day
It’s surprising to realize how circumstances have changed.

Chasing dead presidents
Pursuing money (referencing the faces of U.S. presidents on currency).

Feel like Larenz Tate
I feel like I'm in a movie scenario, drawing inspiration from the actor's roles.

I would never let them
I refuse to allow anyone to manipulate or disadvantage me.

Eat off my plate
I won't let others benefit from my success or labor without earning it.

Showing me love
People exhibiting affection toward me.

When I know that it's fake
I can tell their support is insincere.

Don't make me send you up to heaven gates
Don’t push me too far, or I might react violently.

Yeah my n****
Addressing a close friend or ally with camaraderie.

That's better than section 8
My current lifestyle is far more desirable than living in government-assisted housing.

Ball
To excel and thrive in life or sport.

Now a n**** balling like Jordan
I am now experiencing success comparable to Michael Jordan's in basketball.

Like Jordan, like Jordan
Reinforcing the comparison to the legendary athlete.

Ball
Reengaging with the idea of success and achievement.

Got it on my own, now I'm stunning, stunning
I achieved this success independently and it makes me shine even more.

Twenty three, balling like Jordan, Jordan
At the age of twenty-three, I'm thriving as if I were Michael Jordan in his prime.
