Kush )
lil wayne Lyrics

Yeah, and we smoke that kush
We smoke high-quality marijuana called 'kush'.

Yeah, that kush
The kush we smoke is really good.

Yeah, and we ball like swoosh
We play basketball really well, like the swoosh of the ball going through the hoop.

Yeah, like swoosh
Just reiterating that we ball really well, like the sound of the ball going through the hoop.

Yeah, now how ya like me now
Asking the listener how they feel about us now, after hearing about our skills and preferences.

Got the shit goin' till six
We have something going on until six in the morning.

Press a button, watch the motherfucker do tricks
We have something cool going on that can be activated by pressing a button, and it will do some interesting things.

I don't know what you are on, but I'm on some new shit
We are high on something new, and we don't know what you're on.

While you're bitch is on my dick, like a glue stick
While someone's girlfriend is all over us, clinging on like glue, as if she's stuck to our dick.

I got a grill, I don't have to get my tooth fixed
We have a fancy grill on our teeth, so we don't need to fix any actual teeth.

The tooth fairy would retire if I loose it
If we were to lose a tooth with our expensive grill, it would be valuable enough to make the tooth fairy retire.

Straight out the clip, that's how I spit like an oozey
We spit rhymes like a rapid-fire submachine gun (oozey).

You can't find me 'cause I'm lost in the music
We are so into the music that we are unreachable and lost in our own world.

I'm runnin' this and I can jump the hurdles
We are in charge and can overcome any obstacles (hurdles).

I feelin' like I'm racing a bunch of little turtles
We feel like we are racing against people who are slow like turtles.

Keep a bandanna like the Ninja Turtles
We wear a headband like the animated characters the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

I'm like a turtle, when I sip the purple
When we drink purple drank, a cough syrup-based beverage, we feel slow and relaxed, like a turtle.

Buck sixty on the dash, I'm a do two
We are driving at a really high speed of 160 miles per hour and can go even faster than that.

Captain Crunch, these niggas is Fruit Loops
We are like the cereal Captain Crunch surrounded by a bunch of weak people who are like Fruit Loops. It's a metaphor for our superiority.

That's why your girl wanna fuck me and my group too
Girls are attracted to us and our crew because we have a lot of power and influence.

And I'm a make her back it up like "droop shoop"
We will make our lady backup her words like Salt-N-Pepa's 'Whatta Man' lyrics, 'be my backup and let me be your star'.

I'm the Birdman Jr., I gotta do coups
We are like Birdman Jr., the son of the famous rapper, and we have to drive coupes, a type of car.

I hop up out that motherfucker, holler "suwoop"
When we get out of our car, we yell out a gang call, 'suwoop', to show off our affiliation.

Hollygrove seventeen, I'm from the zoo crew
We come from Hollygrove, a neighborhood in New Orleans, and are part of a gang called the 'zoo crew'.

You would think every animal in the zoo loose
The zoo crew is so wild and out of control that it's like every animal in a zoo got loose.

(Fuck with me) I'm on that screw juice
We are on purple drank, which contains codeine and will make us act crazy and disorderly if you mess with us.

But I keep my shit together, not a screw loose
Despite being on a crazy drug, we are still mentally stable and don't have any issues (not a screw loose).

Yeeaahh, word to my Gucc (Gucci) boots,
We reference our elegant and stylish Gucci boots to express our wealth and status.

I'm higher than a new suit
We are so high that we are above everything, like wearing a brand new, fresh suit.

Buck forty on a ring that I don't really wear
We have an expensive ring worth $140,000 that we don't even wear.

But I bet it light up the night like the city fair
Even though we don't wear it, we know it's flashy enough to light up the night and grab attention, like a city fair.

This shit ain't fair, I didn't have to go there
We got to where we are through some unfair means, and we didn't even have to struggle hard to reach our level of success.

But all this ice got me feelin' like a polar bear
Our expensive jewelry, also known as 'ice', makes us feel like a polar bear, referencing the white fur and icy environment.

I'm so aware, I'm so prepared,
We are very aware and well-equipped to deal with any situation.

I'm so fly I will take off into the open air
We are so cool and fashionable that we can literally take off flying and soaring into the sky.

Lift off, Cristal, please, crackers with cheese
We are celebrating our success with a fancy champagne (Cristal) and some snacks like cheese and crackers.

Nigga please, we on J-E-Ts like Curtis Martin and Whitley Green
Don't even question our power, because we are flying on private jets (J-E-Ts) just like famous football player Curtis Martin and actor Dwayne Wayne's girlfriend Whitley Green.

I'm, lightin', lightin',
We are sparking and lighting up our drugs.

Light the thing, light the thing, no Reggie man
We are lighting up high-quality marijuana (no Reggie) and enjoying that instead of a cheaper, lesser quality version.

[Chorus]
Just restating the chorus, focusing on smoking kush and playing basketball well.

Now how ya like me now
Asking the listener how they feel about us again, after more details about our lifestyle and status have been revealed.
