Thief In The Night
Young Thug & Trouble Lyrics

Yeah
Agreement and acknowledgement of a situation

Just like a G, you know?
I am living like a gangsta; having a fearless approach to life

Trouble, Trouble, what's popping, 5?
Greeting to or acknowledgement of Trouble who is being addressed

B4, let's do it
Let's get down to business quickly, urgently

Yee!
Exclamation of excitement, positivity

I wake up and go get me some new money
I make it a priority to earn more money every day

You know I'm living like a G
I am not afraid of anyone or anything, living life with a carefree attitude

These lil niggas ain't gonna take nothin' from me
I am not willing to let anyone, especially younger or weaker people, threaten or steal from me

You know we do it like a G
We always approach situations fearlessly and with confidence

I swear to God I fuck on anyone
I am not intimidated by anyone and am willing to fight or have sex with anyone

Just like a gangsta, just like a G
Reasserting one's gangsta lifestyle and better ability than others; like someone fearless and confident

This Duct Tape and YSL
These are two groups or affiliations of which the artist is a part and are significant to them

You know I do it like a G
I always approach situations with strength, confidence, and fearlessness

G's up hoes down
A saying or phrase on how the singer's gang operates with respect to women

Like a thief in the night
Stealing or doing things stealthily, without being noticed

I take anything but some pussy
I do not tolerate anyone trying to take money or possessions from me, but do not take actions against women

She got that head like a dyke
She has the ability to perform fellatio like a lesbian

She got that head that I like
I enjoy her fellatio very much

Deep in your partner he ain't right
Friendship issues within a group, sometimes causing someone to act out of turn or betray someone

Put that lil' babe on ice
To hold someone back or put them on hold for a while until resolved or properly handled

I make the paper like rice
I make a lot of money, often quickly and easily

Head on that bucket, your mothafuckin' life, Skoob
Your future is in danger or could be in jeopardy, Skylar

I promise you don't know me
I am not easily understood and have a lot of layers to my personality and lifestyle

I pull up bout my cake
I prioritize making money every day and will come equipped with methods of doing so

Where I'm from is not safe
My environment and upbringing are dangerous and thus, may have influenced my behavior

I got fish, I'm a lake
I have a lot of money, words, or clout within my group or community

Scoop them grits on a plate
I aim to collect money or assets quickly and easily

Yet she thought it was steak
People can be easily fooled or deceived, and mistake one thing for another

I'm a thief in the night
I operate in a stealthy, underhanded, or not-entirely-legal way

Make her ride like a bike
Sexual euphemism; having sex with a woman until she feels pleasurable

I go down on a dyke, I go up on my price
I receive sexual pleasure on women (lesbians) who may also be paying me at the same time

I might drop Kimbo Slice, kidnap like Uncle Ice
I could knock someone out (like Kimbo Slice) or abduct them (like Uncle Ice) if needed or provoked

I got grits at the beach and they white like a rice
I have large quantities of drugs or assets available at a beach location and they are easily concealed or disguised

Let Trouble take your life
If you cause trouble or get out of line, there could be consequences, even loss of life

After I give you five, straight put that five to the side
After shaking hands, paying someone, or greeting them, set the money aside without counting it unnecessarily

It ain't no question how nigga gon' ride
There is no doubt that my group or gang will act or respond in a certain way

When they come with them questions
When confronted with law enforcement, people interrogating, or something controversial

My nigga get quiet, sh sh, nigga sit quiet, sh sh
To remain silent or avoid revealing any information when faced with difficult or potentially incriminating questions

I am not taking no disrespect
I will not allow anyone to treat me in a disrespectful or belittling manner

You Patrick Ewing, you pump fakin'
You are pretending to be someone or accomplish something you are not

No that won't happen on me
I refuse to be taken advantage of or deceived

I drop a key like the mufuckin' beat
I make a large amount of money with ease or am generous with money, possibly referring to selling drugs

I look good as your dad on a Friday
I look attractive and stylish; dressed up for the weekend like many others

So many cars I gotta buy a driveway
I own multiple vehicles and need more space to park them

Never gon' let 'em live a nigga crime day
I refuse to let someone else or myself face punishment or consequences for any crimes or illegal activities

Serving these X and P's instead of poppin'
Using or selling drugs such as ecstasy and Percocets instead of partying or drinking alcohol

Pockets fat up like they jumped 'em
My pockets are overflowing with money, as if they were filled by forcibly robbing someone

YSL, that slimy anaconda
YSL is a group or brand I am affiliated with, characterized by being sneaky or deceitful

Bicking back, being bool like a uncle
Relaxing or chilling with friends or family, with no worries or responsibilities

I'm so geeked up I might fuck a condom
I am extremely high on drugs and could possibly act irrationally or inappropriately

I get 'em all on the rice
I get people to agree or go along with something, often involving money or drugs

She didn't even know what it was but she taste it
Someone is so inexperienced or naive that they do not recognize something but are still willing to try it

I dig in, her shit sound like Jason
I am having sex with a woman and she makes pleasurable noises resembling that of a horror movie character

I be on Percocets more than occasion
I use drugs frequently or recreationally, particularly Percocets

They betting on me like in Vegas
People have high hopes or great expectations for me and are willing to put their money or reputation on the line for me to succeed

Betting on me like I'm Vegas
I am a safe or guaranteed bet for people, like a casino or gambling establishment

Stick to the code man, there won't be no trace
If everyone follows the rules or an agreed-upon code, there will be no evidence or suspicion of wrongdoing

Thugga Thugga, tell me what would you say?
Asking for the opinion or thoughts of someone named Thugga Thugga

No J Money, but my gun say, "Bow"
Explaining that the singer is not someone named J Money, but has a firearm that can shoot

Pop a molly, look at her then fiend
Taking ecstasy (dropping a 'Molly') and staring at a woman, possibly wanting to have sex with her

I'm the target mofucka, no beam
People are specifically looking for the singer or targeting them; possibly referring to the sights on a gun

No this shit is not good as it seems
Something is not what it appears or is being misrepresented

I might give her the boot with no jeans
I might kick someone out of a group or situation with no explanation or warning

I kick shit like a chong and a ching
I am effective at getting things done, possibly using unorthodox methods

I'm a boss, I'm bout that unity
I am a leader and support strong teamwork and relationships within a group

Sandwiches, you know you in between
Referring to an intermediate or lower-ranking member of a group or situation

And you gotta know we at the green
Referring to the money or assets within a successful business or operation

You gotta be young nigga, wilder than Billie Jean
Being reckless, adventurous, or daring, like the pop star Michael Jackson's song 'Billie Jean'

Gotta have paper for lawyer fees
It is important to have enough money to afford legal representation in case of trouble with the law

You ain't with it, you a L
You are not able to keep up with the fast-paced or dangerous lifestyle and are considered a loser or outcast

Still getting it, yeah, bails
I am still making a lot of money, despite dealing with any hurdles or obstacles

Break it down on the scale
To measure or divide something up with precision or accuracy, often referring to drugs

If it add up, hell yeah, I do it
If the financial gains or benefits make sense, the singer will go ahead and do it

Lap back as he ran to it
The singer or someone else reacted quickly and efficiently to a situation, quickly returning to a safe or favorable position
