The Plan
Wiz Khalifa攀呥 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And seen the realest nigga I ever met in my life (laugh)
I done smoked weed where they said I can't
Got rich when they said I can't
Got high and got on the plane
And brought all my niggas when they said I can't
Went shopping places they said I can't
Jumped on the road and did all them shows
Cause I was poppin' places they said I ain't
Went hard in places they said I can't
Promoters call and try and set up dates
Bought the car with that yellow paint
Go to parties now and they set up drinks
And it's first class so I'm private plane
Nudie jeans with my Get Up Mane!
Rollin' papers and Mary J
I made eleven mill and I'm still the same
What's with all these niggas and they feelings, man?
All of this and I'm still the man
Thought of this when I was just a fan
But all this money wasn't in the plan
Now it's all about them Benjamins
Ballin' hard and you in the stands
All this money I'm a business man
Out of all these niggas I'm the realest man
What's with all these niggas and they feelings, man?
All of this and I'm still the man
Thought of this when I was just a fan
But all this money wasn't in the plan
Now it's all about them Benjamins
Ballin' hard and you in the stands
All this money I'm a business man
Out of all these niggas I'm the realest man
Out of all these niggas, they callin' me the realest
Started underneath the floor, now my money through the ceiling
Always staying on my grind, turned nothing to a million
Used to just tryna live, now a nigga make a killin'
Gold rollie on my arm, ten rings like a don
Cuban links in my chain, Zigzag on my charm
Champagne on ice, good weed in the jar
Everything Armans, Chanel seats in the car
When you all know; them fuck niggas start hatin'
Talkin' bout what they gon' do but I'm waitin'
When you getting rich they doubt you
Shout out my gang and my brother Will cause I couldn't do this without you
For real!
What's with all these niggas and they feelings, man?
All of this and I'm still the man
Thought of this when I was just a fan
But all this money wasn't in the plan
Now it's all about them Benjamins
Ballin' hard and you in the stands
All this money I'm a business man
Out of all these niggas I'm the realest man
What's with all these niggas and they feelings, man?
All of this and I'm still the man
Thought of this when I was just a fan
But all this money wasn't in the plan
Now it's all about them Benjamins
Ballin' hard and you in the stands
All this money I'm a business man
Out of all these niggas I'm the realest man
Eighteen racks I paid it though
To send them goons straight to ya door
To show you niggas what's real
And let you meet that .44
Run your mouth you in the trunk
Glock to your head nowhere to run
Catch you niggas when you by yourself
We gon' hit you niggas with a hundred drums
Both low no bad bitch
Good drink I'm famished
Bank account outlandish
Big wrist stay sittin' on Lamb bitch
Niggas out there tryna test me
I put the AK where his chest be
Don't fight with hoes, don't fight with niggas
No security bitch so don't test me
Double cup full I be sippin' up
Mob niggas man real criminals
If a nigga find you they gon' hit ya up
With a Bin Laden chopper that'll split ya up
All these hoes be jockin' tryna get with us
They gon' swallow this nut, no spittin up
Your niggas get murked your niggas in jail
My team gettin' money stay full of drugs
What's with all these niggas and they feelings, man?
All of this and I'm still the man
Thought of this when I was just a fan
But all this money wasn't in the plan
Now it's all about them Benjamins
Ballin' hard and you in the stands
All this money I'm a business man
Out of all these niggas I'm the realest man
What's with all these niggas and they feelings, man?
All of this and I'm still the man
Thought of this when I was just a fan
But all this money wasn't in the plan
Now it's all about them Benjamins
Ballin' hard and you in the stands
All this money I'm a business man
Out of all these niggas I'm the realest man
In Wiz Khalifa's song The Plan, he reflects on his journey to success and how he has overcome the obstacles that were once placed in his way. The opening lines highlight his self-awareness and confidence as he looks at himself in the mirror and sees the realest person he has ever met in his life. He then goes on to list his accomplishments, which were all things he was told he could not do, from smoking weed in places he wasn't supposed to, to making millions and buying all the things he was once told he couldn't have. He mentions jumping on the road to do shows, buying cars with yellow paint, and partying on private planes. Despite all this success, he acknowledges the haters who are jealous and question his authenticity. He states that he is still the man, and everything he has achieved was not part of his original plan, but he worked hard to make it happen.
The chorus of the song repeats the same lines, emphasizing his journey to financial success, his love of basketball, and his confidence in himself as a businessman. The second verse details his rise to fame and success-intending to motivate other people who may be in similar positions as him. With every step of the way, he has overcome obstacles and defied the odds. He mentions that he was once just a fan of those on top and had to work hard to get to where he is today. He boasts of his wealth and spending extravagantly, but verbalizes that he will not forget those who helped him up the ladder. He mentions his gang and his brother will.
In conclusion, the song The Plan is not only about Wiz Khalifa's journey to success, but it is also a story about perseverance in the face of adversity, pursuing one's dreams relentlessly, and not letting others hold you back.
