Overall Meaning

In these lyrics, Young Smacka describes his respected status in the rebellious sections of his neighborhood. He has gained respect through his involvement in street activities and earning money in the hallway. He is also known for being a gutta with his music, and gangstas love to listen to his songs while they lurk and prepare to shoot a clique. Despite his reputation, he tries to change but remains a gangsta at heart.


The lines "Respect goes a long way, I got mine from getting money in the hallway, and being with this shit clutching guns all day" indicate that Young Smacka has earned respect in his neighborhood through his involvement in street activities, particularly hustling to make money, and being willing to protect himself and his associates with guns. His status is further solidified by his ability to squash beef with "bread" or money, and he proudly declares that respect is demanded of him like Aretha Franklin.


The lyrics also touch on the risks and danger that comes with being a gangsta. Young Smacka talks about dodging bullets in the world, which can be likened to being in the Matrix. He mentions suicide missions and how some believe he has a death wish, yet he remains respected by most despite some wanting to kill him.
