Raj Smoove, ooo boy
Raj Smoove the Greatest DJ in the world

[Intro:]
I Wear a mean dark pair of shades
And you cant see my eyes unless my head is bent

[Lil Wayne:]
We stay high on that 5 0 4 shit (New Orleans)
Some day I all the time and you know this
We stay high on that 5 0 4 shit (New Orleans)
Some day I all the time and you know this

[Verse 1:]
Look straight out of the garage on a hog and you know i redo the insides like the morgue (x3)
The coup blue like that dude on mars
Ridin with the bitch prettier than the da barge
Mommy want a soldier baby im a sarge if you cant have me but cant have a menarge
Now rub me wrong and fuck up my massage and these flowers for the dead better get them a cizarge
Yea, head nigga enlarge and every thing i do i San Deigo charge
While you niggas just starve, im eating so much imma fuck around and barf
And red is the color of my scarf, and understand to a giant your a dwarf
My flows goin off, im so sick all i gotta do is cough

[Chorus:]
We stay high on that 5 0 4 shit (New Orleans)
Some day I all the time and you know this
We stay high on that 5 0 4 shit (New Orleans)
Some day I all the time and you know this

[Verse 2: Raw D.I.]
Bitch I come from the bottum of the map, New Orleans, Louisana we love to pack gats, we love to count stacks, we love pump pack, love killin the track, Me, Wayne, Roney, and Mack
This some Hollygrove shit here and imma bang it in your ear till you get it clear
Ya heard that, thats my word and i meant that, dont tempt me i leave your bitch up in your bentley, believe me
(Roney)
Its Roney nigga back in the game, straight off the block baggin the game
Now run till you heard me rappin wit Wayne, Run tell you heard me rappin insane
Yea, im off in this bitch, puffin dro guards in this bitch, im leanin in this bitch, we got freaks in the bitch, and we deep in this bitch

[Chorus:]
We stay high on that 5 0 4 shit (New Orleans)
Some day I all the time and you know this
We stay high on that 5 0 4 shit (New Orleans)
Some day I all the time and you know this

[Verse 3: Mack Maine]
I got a thing for them big trucks, big fine bitches with good jug and big butts
5'4" mommies with nice head and fake tits
That dont get loose off goose and proly act up
5'7" bitches with bow legs that take dick
All they really need is 2 pills and 6 blunts
Wake up in the morning, and count money, and make grits, she dont really know no English so we dont say shit
Chea, Wayne said let it rain on em, mother nature with the paper doin the mack maine on them




Yeah, like their one thousand like whoosh, like there go two thousand, BALLIN
Now shake that ass like you came, pay your cable bill and your tryin to watch the saints on your sixty inch hitachi, livin like Liberachi, sportin the latest versace, shotty and mazaradi, dodgin the paparazzi, A.C. Cole like the heart of nazis, this years classic like old school herachees, you get your grill cooked like it was hibachi, word the cousin rod need us

Overall Meaning

The song "Ballin" by Lil Wayne features Fresh, Roney, and Mac Maine and revolves around their love for New Orleans, specifically the 504 area code. With Raj Smoove behind the DJ table, the rap lyrics could not have been better. The lyrics are about the various aspects of their lavish lives, including riding expensive hogs, enjoying massages, and eating so much that they might barf. The chorus proclaims that they stay high on that 504 stuff all the time, making it clear that this is not just occasional partying but a way of life.


The first verse is focused on Lil Wayne himself. He talks about his hog and how he has customized it to such a degree that it looks like a morgue on wheels. He also talks about having a beautiful company and being a sarge to her. The second verse is by Raw D.I., in which he boasts about his place of origin, his ability to kill it on the track, and his association with Wayne, Roney, and Mac. Roney's verse talks about the life in the hood, along with smoking weed, and that "we got freaks in the bitch, and we deep in this bitch." The third verse by Mack Maine also talks about his love for big trucks, bitches, and fine-looking women.


Overall, the song is about their flamboyant lives and how they enjoy their wealth. It is a classic hip-hop song that glorifies the culture of their region, where they are from, and how they live their life.
