Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hopscotchin' through the street, I'm tryin' not to fall
She pray to God I make it home before tomorrow mornin'
I'm tryna tell her to pick a Rollie but she don't care at all
I'm carin' 'bout my drank, my portion's what I'm comin' for
I been keepin' up with my city
High performance on my jacket, Rolls-Royce truck for extra fifty
See the pussies on the sideline wishin' that I fall
Pull the skeletons out the closet, I'm 'bout to tell it all
Just want my money, my hoes and all my kids to ball
I'm road ragin' to the millions if I have to crawl
Yeah, I'm road ragin' to the millions if I have to crawl, oh yeah
I'm road ragin' to the millions if I have to crawl
Every time they call in, young nigga ballin'
I went from tellin' them to try me, to callin' shots
And I wanna know what's on your mind, what you're thinkin' 'bout
And I wanna know if I can change it, let's take you out
Private flight to France, such a change in trends
I bought her a Richard, now she dance like ants in her pants
Red and white diamonds on my mans, he an ambulance
Half a million to my dad, salad dressing, bought a ranch
He said his last two weeks been busy, I'm movin' in
I told my mom look out her window to another Benz
She took nine shots of Patron, 50 Cent
I bent the corner and seen my bros gettin' rich
Signed another check for a couple million on a jet
Swear to God, 2006, my sickest dream was buyin' a 'Vette
Bought that shit and then I wrecked and then I copped another one
Smoked forty-one, this your last batch and I got more to come
Gettin' them bales up by the metric ton, hit up feds or somethin'
Bought a Bentley with a credit card, it's the blackened one
I got shows way in Hong Kong, I'm the chosen one
You frozen tongue, you won't say it twice, I'll great you with a gun, nigga
See the pussies on the sideline wishin' that I fall
Pull the skeletons out the closet, I'm 'bout to tell it all
Just want my money, my hoes and all my kids to ball
I'm road ragin' to the millions if I have to crawl
Yeah, I'm road ragin' to the millions if I have to crawl, oh yeah
I'm road ragin' to the millions if I have to crawl
In "Road Rage," Young Thug paints a picture of his journey to success and alludes to the obstacles that he had to overcome, including people wishing for his downfall. The opening lines, "Hopscotchin' through the street, I'm tryin' not to fall, She pray to God I make it home before tomorrow mornin'" depict a sense of wariness and danger. The rapper asserts that he is trying to keep it together while moving through the rough street terrain without losing his footing. He even acknowledges that the woman he is with is concerned for his safety, praying fervently that he'll arrive home safely.
He then goes on to mention his accomplishments, including keeping up with his city and purchasing high-performance gear, such as a Rolls-Royce truck, to stay on top of things. However, he mentions that he cares about his drinks and what really matters to him - getting his due portion. Thugger then touches on his detractors, stating that they "wish[ed] for his downfall." Despite their ill wishes, he remains unbothered, pulling out skeletons from the closet and teasing the idea that he will divulge all. The rapper's goal is simply to keep his family, money, and women happy and to continue reaching for his thriving music career.
