Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yo, yo ain't no party once we crash the party
I'mma scoop shorty then vacate the party
You keep grillin I pump-pump the shotty
Put you in the trunk then dump-dump the body
Nigga you don't know, you better ask somebody
Ya'll get down, we gonna clash probably
Peel snowflake outta that Abercrombie
I'm tryna grip Britney, so I made Jive sign me, nigga
Catch me in the club with a double edge banger
I'm the wrong one to fuck with
Nah I know the promoters I'm in with the musket
Pound of that haze and a box of Dutches
High to the cottonmouth, paranoid
Make the wrong move, bitch, and your ass is out
Like M.O.P., nigga, I'll mash you out
If I can't get you here, swing by your house, muthafucka

Ya'll niggas got it twisted, huh?
That liquor up into to you, charged
That truth come out when you drunk
Your ass won't make it to see tomorrow
Ya'll niggas got it twisted, huh?
That liquor up into you, charged
That truth come out when you drunk
Your ass won't make it to see tomorrow
We step up in the club with one thing
On our mind, that's leave with something
Get rid of that ring, get rid of those cuffs
We about to... girl
We about to... girl
We about to... girl-girl
We about to... girl
We about to... girl-girl

Party over here, ain't shit over there
Them Mobb Deep boys got it locked right here
Wherever we at we keep the blix right there
So wherever there's beef, it's gettin fixed right there
And they can't stop us...they too scared
They know our caliber of thugs shoot at heads, nigga
QB drop you off of that bridge
Show you how we do it in Queens where murder ain't shit, nigga
This is P talkin, show you where I live
You can come right to my crib and get it for shiz
You bein manslaughtered, right in front of my kids
A little blood get on my daughter, it's nothing, she'll live
Got cops shook to death of us...we don't like D's
You never catch us runnin with the police
Ya'll niggas get your vest-es up
And ya'll better invest in some real heavy bullet-proof paneling

Ya'll niggas got it twisted, huh?
That liquor up into to you, charged
That truth come out when you drunk
Your ass won't make it to see tomorrow
Ya'll niggas got it twisted, huh?
That liquor up into you, charged
That truth come out when you drunk
Your ass won't make it to see tomorrow
We step up in the club with one thing
On our mind, that's leave with something
Get rid of that ring, get rid of those cuffs
We about to... girl
We about to... girl
We about to... girl-girl




We about to... girl
We about to... girl-girl

Overall Meaning

In Mobb Deep’s song "Got It Twisted," the lyrics describe their dangerous lifestyle and their willingness to resort to violence to protect themselves. The opening lines boast that the party is not complete until they arrive and then they threaten other attendees with guns and potential murder. The lyrics continue to describe their carelessness with human life, revealing that they have no qualms about killing someone if they cross them. They also mention the effects of alcohol, and how it can make people say or do things they may regret later. However, Mobb Deep seems to have no problem with revealing their true selves, even when under the influence.


In addition to the message in the lyrics, the song’s instrumentation also provides insight into Mobb Deep’s mindset. The repetitive and aggressive beats are reminiscent of gunfire or someone walking menacingly. The tone of the music brings the listener inside the mind of a person ready for a fight. And yet, there's a hint of caution in their lyrics that reveals they’re not totally invulnerable – they, too, get paranoid when the smoke clears.
