Trey Songz feat. Jim Jones Lyrics

Dipset
This song is a collaboration between Trey Songz and Jim Jones

As we proceed
Let's continue with this song

What have we here (take that take that)
What do we have here? (a phrase often used by P.Diddy)

It's 0-9 motherfucker (one thing to do)
It's 2009, and we have one thing to do: get money

We get money motherfucker (yo)
We make a lot of money, yo

I pulled off like na na na na na na
I left quickly, making a na na na sound

They would of tried some bullshit but a nigga had the blamer (try again)
People might have attempted to cause trouble, but I had a gun to defend myself (try again)

They only got me cause they caught it on a camera (ow)
They only caught me because they recorded it (expression of pain)

They wanna ball but they ain't got no stamina (they need it)
They want to party, but they can't keep up (they need more stamina)

They said damn man you looking like Pac
They said I look like Tupac

I said nah, not alive, man I'm looking like Jones (cappo)
I said no, I don't look like Tupac, I look like Jim Jones (a nickname of mine)

Besides I put money on your skull and bones
In addition, I placed a bet on your life

And keep it low watch what you say up on those fucking phones
Keep it quiet and be careful what you say on the phone

Be quiet
Be silent

Touchdown
Success!

And get ya ass hung the fuck up just like a bunch of clothes
Hang up the phone like you would hang up clothes

Hey ma, we stretch work like you touch your toes
Hey, we make a lot of money and work hard like you stretch your toes

And in the middle of July we got that summer snow
Even in the middle of summer, we have a lot of cash (like snow) on us

I got em snowboarding in August
I got them spending a lot of money, even in August

And I love a pretty bitch but the Porsche look gorgeous (you see it)
I like attractive women, but my Porsche looks amazing (You can see it)

Harlem is one big ski slalom
Harlem is full of twists and turns (like a ski slope)

I guess the Hill is like the Swiss Alps, we bring them whips out
I think Harlem is like the Swiss Alps, and we show off our cars there

[Chorus]
The chorus repeats the phrase 'na na na na na na,' and talks about making a lot of money and living life to the fullest

If there's money on my head I hope they got a receipt
If someone puts a bounty on my head, I hope they have proof of payment

Cool your old ass off cause it's hot on these streets (be easy)
Calm down, because things can get heated on the streets (be easy)

I got dogs and they not on a leash
I have powerful friends who can act without being controlled

So you hope you understand
So I hope you know what I mean

Do you copy? capesh? (comprende?)
Do you understand? (Spanish equivalent added for emphasis)

At this point I don't think they could take it
I don't think they can handle what we have

Sharks in the water they wont make it to safety (he drown)
There are dangerous people around, and they will not be safe (they will drown)

And even though that we been getting cake
Even though we have been making a lot of money

And now the money taste sweet like pastry, they hate me (back at you)
Now that we have a lot of money, people are jealous and dislike me (I feel the same way about them)

Now tell me how I look
Tell me, how do I appear?

Would you rather live life like me or by the book? (you get it?)
Do you prefer living life with rules (by the book) or with freedom (like me)? (Do you understand the comparison?)

Sheesh, we are what we are
Wow, we are who we are

Make the wrong move will put your faggot ass in the ER
Make a mistake and you'll end up in the emergency room

He's not gonna make it clear?
He's not going to say it more directly?

Flat line
He'll be dead

If it's red apples falling hit me on the bat line (Jones)
If there's trouble, contact me on my phone (Jones)

I'm back for mine, some more black flyin'
I'm back for what's mine, and more money is coming in (referring to the drug trade)

The fliest nigga you know that got a knack for crime
The most stylish person you know who is also skilled at illegal activity

Nana
A repeated phrase in the song

And what you do nigga?
What do you do, my friend?

I cop cars out the future
I buy luxury cars that are brand new and ahead of their time

Pocket so fat like Raspusha
My pockets are so full of money that they resemble Rasputia (a large character from the movie Norbit)

I think I'm getting used to
I'm starting to become accustomed to this lifestyle

Lifestyle rich and conspicuous
My lifestyle is expensive and noticeable

Chicks want to get with us (ow)
Women are attracted to us (expression of pain)

The feds taking flicks of us (say cheese)
The authorities are taking pictures of us (say cheese)

They all know I put on for Harlem
Everyone knows that I represent Harlem

Tell rich Broadway I took it up another level (God bless 'em)
Tell Rich Broadway (a colleague of Jones) that I have elevated my success even further (God bless him)

I took 80, blew it on a Beezle
I spent $80,000 on a car (a Model S from the luxury automaker Fisker)

Bought the new Fiskar flew it through the ghetto (15th st)
I bought a new Fisker and drove it through the ghetto (15th street)

The definition of opulence
The epitome of wealth and luxury

The jewels dripping we dropping on top and popping shit (splash)
We have expensive jewelry that drips with extravagance, and we impress people with our wealth (splash)

Who would think that this kid from the projects
Who would have thought that a person from the projects (low-income housing) would be so successful?

Get his neck so cold you would think he's lethargic (I'm froze up)
His jewelry is so cold that it feels like he's unable to move (an expression: I'm frozen)

The wrist look like hypothermia set in (what)
His watch on his wrist looks so cold that it's like he has hypothermia (a condition where the body temperature drops too low)

Pick a club night that the burner don't get in (I can't recall that)
Choose a night at a club where weapons are not allowed (I don't remember the last time that happened)

We pop champagne until the club let out (and)
We celebrate with champagne until the club closes (and)

I drink and I fuck and then I piss a nigga rent out
I drink, have sex, and then I can pay someone else's rent with the money I have (bragging about his wealth and power)

You know the rules nigga
You know how things work, my friend

Fly high or get flew over
Succeed or be surpassed

Roll with us or get rolled over
Join us or be defeated

Ain't nothing change
Nothing has changed

Just the decimal point motherfucker
Only the amount of money has changed, my friend

You get the point?
Do you understand?

Money money money
A common refrain about wealth

Don't make dollars don't make sense
If you don't make money, it doesn't make sense (a play on words)

Jones
A repeated reference to Jim Jones
