Ride on my enemies, throw 'em off in the C

Keep me a mini choppa, flamed up
Me and Flocka West Side

My house, my turf like the ?
West side fuckin' with the Down South
Red flags all at my shows
Used to kill, now we all about dope
Buy whips, put 'em all on fo's
Still kill, but it's all about dope
Get tricky, so play by the rules
Look, homie ?
Flip that pack, still grind some mo'
I love my hood and I love ?
I feed my hood with a spoon and fork
Fuck with me, you won't eat. Let's go!
Go against me, I'mma slit your throat
Get a rap check, but weed, buy coke

Nigga, hold up, don't act like you know me
Just cause you Blood don't make you my homie
Fuck with you ? and clique probably phony
Real ? shit,nigga, you can call me Tony
Nigga, I'm a shooter. Gon' get your ass shot
Y shoot for Guc', guns shoot for Flock

Wrong gang sign, nigga, palm that back
Whole clique goons, don't know how to act

Pussy nigga swung when I turned my back
Hold on, DJ bring that back
Pussy nigga swung when I turned my back
Shit, yeah, I told that nigga hold that
Knocked out his front seat, his ass come back

But, nah, I ain't a Hoover
Natural born shooter, I'm the club party pooper
Yes, sir, I'm the Dunkin'
But, nah, I ain't a Hoover
[Chorus: x4]
The lyrics to Waka Flocka Flame's song "Bang" are filled with references to gang culture and violence. The song opens with the sounds of gunfire, setting the tone for the rest of the track. The first few lines mention "Lex" and "Bricksquad," which are references to Flocka's home of Lexington, Georgia and his group of friends known as Bricksquad. This is followed by the repeated line "throwing gang signs," which emphasizes the gang imagery in the song.
The first verse includes lines about Flocka's gang affiliations ("B-L-Double O-D, right-side flag/I'm green flag"), his violent tendencies ("squeeze on my trigger till my gun OD"), and his antagonistic attitude toward his enemies ("I'll paint your whole town red"). The second verse is a collaboration with fellow rapper YG Hootie, and it continues the theme of gang violence and territoriality, with references to the West Side and South.
The final verse is a more personal reflection on Flocka's own status as a gang member and shooter. He proclaims, "I'm a shooter. Gon' get your ass shot/Y shoot for Guc', guns shoot for Flock," and brags about his ability to take care of his enemies ("Don't check me/Natural born shooter, I'm the club party pooper"). Throughout the song, the chorus repeats the phrase "We in this bitch throwin' gang signs," hammering home the central theme of gang affiliation and violence.
