Uno cemented himself as a pillar of the rap scene in 2015, taking the underground by storm with the release of his No More Thotties mixtape and songs like "Parkin' Lot Pimpin'," "Giuseppe Swag," and "WHAT." Uno would respond to the craving for new music held by his fans for two years by releasing his debut studio mixtape Live.Shyne.Die in late 2017.
A desire for musical experimentation led to his mid-2018 EP Limbus. The series' second installment would release in December of that same year. This trend of experimentation would continue itself with the release of Uno's Deadication remix project in mid-2019.
Uno delivered Deadication II: Lost Files in early 2020, a mixtape containing vaulted songs dating back to 2017. In mid-2020, Uno released his highly-anticipated debut studio album, 8, which included popular tracks "Das Him," "Night Mode," and "Can't Go."
At the beginning of 2021, Uno would release his sophomore studio album, Unoverse, a 10-track LP that would mark his first independent release since his 2017 EP Sorry for the Wait. The project featured standout cuts "Taco Bell" and "Opp Pack." ~ Alexander L. & Hamed T.
My Woe
UNOTHEACTIVIST Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was running through the 3 with my woes
I'ma fuck her then I pass her to my bro
(Pass her to my bro) , ayy
If my pockets slow, I'm kicking doors
(Need that cash)
Kickin' and finessin' all these
I'm with my woe
(With my woe) , with my woe (With my woe)
With my woe
(Ayy, ayy) , with my woe (Gang, gang)
With my woe (With my woe)
With my woe (I'm with my woe)
With my whoadie, with my woe, ayy, ayy
I can't go a day without finessing (Ayy)
Made it off the strip but niggas
Think I'm out here flexing
(Bitch, I'm strong)
If you wanna use my phone
I tell that ho to call collector
Tryna run up in my phone
Really all these bitches messy (Bitches)
Plug just got arrested
Wonder why I leave a message
And I might hit her line one time
But that's only for pussy niggas
(Pussy nigga) partner told me
"We can't kick it out with pussy niggas"
I got four hoes in my two door
Whip and a 35 in my swisher, ayy
From the bottom to the top of my heart
I thought shawty was modern day art
But she climbed on top my boy
Then wanna come climb on top my car
(Skrrt, skrrt) bitch, get down
You ain't built for that shit (What? What?)
In the bando where we bustin' down bricks
On Sunset Avenue, selling out nicks
Xans on deck, dirty Fanta my lip (That Xan')
Ran Zone 3, can't run Zone 6 (Uh, uh)
I ain't shit, I can't even blame her
I just bought these diamonds
She can't even say nothin'
No, you cannot stay, girl, Uber your location
Really I don't think I'm
Helping with your situation
So I had to turn my phone off
I can't talk to you (Hello?)
'Cause, bitch, I'm watching you but
I ain't stalking you, ayy
Playing both sides, don't that bother you?
(Don't that bother?)
If I ever catch y'all niggas lacking
I bust all of you (Bah bah)
I was running through the 3 with my woes
I'ma fuck her then I pass her to my bro
(Pass her to my bro) , ayy
If my pockets slow, I'm kicking doors
(Need that cash)
Kickin' and finessin' all these
Niggas with my woes (I'm with my woes)
I'm with my woe
(With my woe) , with my woe (With my woe)
With my woe
(Ayy, ayy) , with my woe (Gang, gang)
With my woe (With my woe)
With my woe (I'm with my woe)
With my whoadie, with my woe, ayy, ayy
The lyrics to "My Woe" by UnoTheActivist depict a lifestyle of hustling, loyalty, and a sense of camaraderie with his friends. The line "I was running through the 3 with my woes" suggests that the artist was navigating through his city, possibly the third ward, with his close associates ("woes"). He describes a situation where he engages in casual encounters with women, but after satisfying his own desires, he passes them on to his friends.
The lyrics also touch upon the theme of financial struggles and the lengths he will go to secure money. The line "If my pockets slow, I'm kicking doors" implies that if he is in need of cash, he is willing to resort to robbery or similar illegal activities. He describes himself as "kickin' and finessin' all these niggas with my woes," indicating that he is adept at manipulating others and outsmarting his rivals.
Additionally, the lyrics highlight UnoTheActivist's distrust of others, especially women. He references turning off his phone to avoid communication and mentions watching someone without actually stalking them. This may suggest a level of paranoia and caution in his relationships.
Overall, "My Woe" captures the artist's gritty lifestyle, his relationships with his friends, and his resourceful approach to navigating the challenges he faces in his environment.

As a result, I had to switch off my phone
I can't talk to you (Hello?)
I cannot communicate with you
'Cause, bitch, I'm watching you but
Because, I am observing your actions
I ain't stalking you, ayy
I am not obsessively following you
Playing both sides, don't that bother you?
Being involved with two conflicting groups, doesn't that concern you?
(Don't that bother?)
Questioning if it troubles the listener
If I ever catch y'all niggas lacking
If I ever find you unprepared
I bust all of you (Bah bah)
I will shoot all of you
