Pablo Escobar gave me 10 bricks
And then I showed up on the scene
Looking like I hit about 10 licks
Whatβs up my friend? como te llamas? my name is Jizzle
I heard you had them whole white squares down to the Medow
Give me everyone of them bitches you got I get βem off
Right now Iβm on my βget moneyβ shit , no time to floss
Man Iβm talking so much money in the room Iβm getting lost
And you know we do it face to face not on the selling
If you want βem send them shots of the sea just like on belly
And this bad bitch I got from the plug she snort the eight
Told that bitch you should be same as yourself bitch wipe your face
On the floor my columbian nigga I told βem Cubo
Say you βbout to drop me a hundred I need 2 more
All I fuck was mucho , wait, Iβm talking sumo
I play them cards just like they go Iβm talking uno
Go to sleep in the hood, woke up in that versace
With the feds outside itβs snapping like paparazzi
Last night I had a dream
Pablo Escobar gave me 10 bricks
And then I showed up on the scene
Looking like I hit about 10 licks
We make a million, spend a million life is a fairytale
If they catch me in the crew they gonβ throw us in the jail
If I think that they ainβt right then I ainβt making a sale
FBI, DEA , shit how can you tell?
You know Iβm kicked back , just peeping the conversation
Nigga set me up, get me indicted be complication man
This why I stay on top of my game, my shit is smooth
You know we ainβt playing no games, my niggas rule here
If they get you in , you say that you wonβt Iβm just that dude
If he ainβt get stopped then you wonβt make in the news
You know this shit was boom in the day, I made a killin', nigga
Iβm sick of trying countinβ these millions fuck is the billions
Got money in the couch, money all up in the ceiling
That sick shit bitch all we need is penicillin
Think I need to slow down the weed, I lost count
Ran through the first three point 8 and passed out
Last night I had a dream
Pablo Escobar gave me 10 bricks
And then I showed up on the scene
Looking like I hit about 10 licks
In these lyrics of Young Jeezy ft. YGβs βJust Got Word,β the rapper talks about his dream where Pablo Escobar, a notorious drug lord, gave him 10 bricks of what is presumed to be cocaine. Jeezy then talks about getting in touch with drug dealers to sell the bricks, emphasizing that he didn't waste time flossing despite the amount of money he makes. He stresses that he handles deals face-to-face and that they do it right, unlike the other drug dealers that use the sea to ship their goods. Jeezy concludes by indicating how his life is like a fairy tale of making and spending one million dollars and warns against getting caught by FBI or DEA.
The theme of this song highlights the vicious cycle of money, drugs, and the problems that come with it. Despite Jeezy's success, he is still living the life of illegal activities that can lead him to prison or death. Escobarβs reference shows how the drug business is alluring, given his infamy as one of the most successful drug lords in history. The song showcases Jeezyβs experience in the illegal drug business and enhances the message that the outcome of living this life is never good. Jeezy warns against compromising and selling out his criminal associates.

Last night I had a dream
I had a dream last night
Pablo Escobar gave me 10 bricks
In my dream, Pablo Escobar gave me 10 bricks of drugs
And then I showed up on the scene
After getting the drugs, I arrived at the location
Looking like I hit about 10 licks
I looked like I made a lot of money from selling drugs
Whatβs up my friend? como te llamas? my name is Jizzle
Hello friend, what's your name? My name is Jizzle
I heard you had them whole white squares down to the Medow
I heard you had a lot of drugs to sell
Give me everyone of them bitches you got I get βem off
Give me all the drugs you have and I will sell them
We can sit back and split up the profit minus the cost
We can divide the profits after accounting for costs
Right now Iβm on my βget moneyβ shit , no time to floss
Currently, I am focused on making money and not showing off
Man Iβm talking so much money in the room Iβm getting lost
There is so much money present that I am losing track
And you know we do it face to face not on the selling
We only do transactions in person, not online
If you want βem send them shots of the sea just like on belly
If you want the drugs, send a signal like in the movie 'Belly'
And this bad bitch I got from the plug she snort the eight
I have a woman who uses drugs and got her from my supplier
Told that bitch you should be same as yourself bitch wipe your face
I told her to act natural and to clean her face of any drug residue
On the floor my columbian nigga I told βem Cubo
I spoke to my Colombian associate named Cubo
Say you βbout to drop me a hundred I need 2 more
I asked for 200 more units of drugs
All I fuck was mucho , wait, Iβm talking sumo
I have sex with a lot of women, even ones as big as sumo wrestlers
I play them cards just like they go Iβm talking uno
I play the drug game strategically, like in a game of Uno
Go to sleep in the hood, woke up in that versace
I fell asleep in the rough neighborhood and woke up in luxurious Versace clothing
With the feds outside itβs snapping like paparazzi
There are law enforcement agents outside and it feels like the paparazzi are taking photos
We make a million, spend a million life is a fairytale
We earn and spend a lot of money, living a fantasy life
If they catch me in the crew they gonβ throw us in the jail
If the authorities catch us together, we will be incarcerated
If I think that they ainβt right then I ainβt making a sale
If I suspect the buyer is a cop, I won't sell them anything
FBI, DEA , shit how can you tell?
I am worried about the FBI and the DEA and don't know how to spot them
You know Iβm kicked back , just peeping the conversation
I am relaxed and observing the conversation
Nigga set me up, get me indicted be complication man
If someone sets me up and I get arrested, it will be a big problem
This why I stay on top of my game, my shit is smooth
I remain vigilant and prepared, and everything is going well
You know we ainβt playing no games, my niggas rule here
We are not messing around, my crew is in charge here
If they get you in, you say that you wonβt Iβm just that dude
If caught, I won't snitch and I expect my associates to do the same
If he ainβt get stopped then you wonβt make in the news
If he has not been caught, the transaction won't be reported in the news
You know this shit was boom in the day, I made a killin', nigga
I made a lot of money in the past when the drug business was booming
Iβm sick of trying countinβ these millions fuck is the billions
I am tired of counting millions and want to make billions instead
Got money in the couch, money all up in the ceiling
I have hidden money in the couch and in the ceiling
That sick shit bitch all we need is penicillin
We are involved in dangerous activities and could use some antibiotics
Think I need to slow down the weed, I lost count
I should stop smoking so much weed, as it has affected my ability to keep track of things
Ran through the first three point 8 and passed out
I consumed a large amount of drugs and passed out
