Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah yeah yeah yeah (Ah) (Uno, I killed it)

I was outside, getting Rick 'cause I want to
I ain't stressing no bitch
She can do what she want to
I can get lit, ho, do what I want to
I can keep taking these drugs
'cause I want to, yeah
She want wedding ring, yeah
Can't buy that bitch no wedding ring, yeah
No love in the streets (What?)
Gotta' get it by any means, yeah

Hop in that 'Rari, that 'Rari go, "Vroom"
I chop out the top, it go, choppa, "Kazoom"
I'm hop in that Lamb, in the foreign, pfft
Ew, light it then smoke out the room
You beefin' with me then you gon'
Meet your doom lil nigga
Don't think that it's coming so soon
I might just sweep the whole
Block with no broom
Like Mario, I'ma boot up on shrooms
Try callin' me up with somebody, I count it
I tell 'em that I cannot lose
They sleepin' on me, better wake up
'fore I kill em like why you still snooze
I am not talkin' no Percocet
When I tell you I'll give you the blues
Yeah, I tell 'em my
Feelings ain't hurting yet
I fucked up they mood
Uh, I try to keep it so real with people
But they tell me I'm just being rude
Take all these drugs just so I
Could get rid of people
I'm the only one left in the room
I'm poppin' these shrooms
But I think it's afraid of people 'cause
They cannot afford what I do
I'm outside, I go turn up in the moon

I was outside, getting Rick 'cause I want to
I ain't stressing no bitch
She can do what she want to
I can get lit, ho, do what I want to
I can keep taking these drugs
'cause I want to, yeah
She want wedding ring, yeah
Can't buy that bitch no wedding ring, yeah




No love in the streets (What?)
Gotta' get it by any means, yeah

In the first verse, the artist expresses his carefree attitude and refusal to be controlled by anyone.

The line "No love in the streets, gotta' get it by any means" emphasizes the artist's determination to achieve success and fulfill his desires through any means necessary, even if it means disregarding conventional norms or sacrificing love and relationships.


The second verse continues to showcase the artist's rebellious nature and extravagant lifestyle. He boasts about driving luxury cars like a Ferrari and Lamborghini, and the use of onomatopoeic words like "vroom" and "kazoom" adds to the sense of exhilaration and indulgence. The reference to smoking and getting high reflects a hedonistic attitude, while the line "I'ma boot up on shrooms" suggests a willingness to embrace psychedelic experiences. The artist conveys a sense of self-assuredness and arrogance, dismissing those who doubt him and proclaiming his ability to inflict harm on his enemies. The lyrics also touch on his detachment from people, using drugs as a means to distance himself from others and create a sense of isolation.
