Burial
Yogi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
Hold up, this the game, it chose us
Pioneer, started on my corner like the cold crush
Had smokers linin' up the block like a gold rush
The way that they mold us, perfect way that showed us
How to get money, fuck bitches off this nose dust
Showed me how to burn the block down before it slows up
Before the window of opportunity close up
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
Yogi said get em so I got 'em all (Yuugh!)
And turned this bitch into a burial
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
Yogi said get em so I got 'em all (Yuugh!)
And turned this bitch into a burial
Lookin' from the top floor, what would I stop for?
Still hear the crowd cheers, while I'm thinkin' encore
Flyin' on a Concorde, listening to Tom Ford
Frames match the song title, flyer than a Condor
Little niggas rhyme poor, poverty flows in ya
Part of beatin' hoes in, I am who you're tryin' for?
I think not - Pusha, stay hot
The coupe's got no roofs, forever they stay drop nigga
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
Yogi said get em so I got 'em all (Yuugh!)
And turned this bitch into a burial
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
Yogi said get em so I got 'em all (Yuugh!)
And turned this bitch into a burial
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
Yogi said get em so I got 'em all (Yuugh!)
And turned this bitch into a burial
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
I came, I saw, I conquered, I balled
Yogi said get em so I got 'em all (Yuugh!)
And turned this bitch into a burial

I entered, I witnessed, I triumphed, I flourished
Hold up, this the game, it chose us
Wait a moment, this is the business, it selected us
Pioneer, started on my corner like the cold crush
Innovator, began in my neighborhood like the legendary DJs
Had smokers linin' up the block like a gold rush
Had drug addicts queuing on the street like miners for valuable metals
The sayin' "life fast and die young" is what they told us
The expression "live quickly and perish at a young age" is what we were informed
The way that they mold us, perfect way that showed us
The method in which they shape us, ideal method that demonstrated us
How to get money, fuck bitches off this nose dust
How to earn cash, have sex with women using this cocaine
Showed me how to burn the block down before it slows up
Demonstrated to me how to destroy the neighborhood before the momentum fades
Before the window of opportunity closes up
Before the chance to succeed dwindles away
Yogi said get em so I got 'em all (Yuugh!)
Yogi directed me to attack them so I defeated them all (expression of triumph)
And turned this bitch into a burial
And transformed this endeavor into a funeral (symbolic victory)
Lookin' from the top floor, what would I stop for?
Observing from the highest level of a building, why would I halt my progress?
Still hear the crowd cheers, while I'm thinkin' encore
Still hear the audience applauding, while I'm considering an additional performance
Flyin' on a Concorde, listening to Tom Ford
Traveling on a Concorde plane, listening to songs by Tom Ford

Inexperienced rappers have terrible lyrics, poverty is ingrained in you

Part of assaulting women, am I the one you're aiming for?
I think not - Pusha, stay hot
I don't believe so - Pusha, remain popular
The coupe's got no roofs, forever they stay drop nigga
The car model has no retractable roof, always driving with it lowered, my friend

Love that Pusha T is finally getting mainstream recognition in today's generation. Was a clipse fanboy and kinda routed for him to blow-up when he signed to good music. Just happy that he has features with famous DJ's and producers.
