Lyrics

Yeah, yeah

Expression of agreement or affirmation

La-da-da, la-da, la-da, la-da, la-da, la-da

Repetitive sounds, possibly to emphasize a relaxed or carefree atmosphere


Uh

Beginning of a verse

Nigga the crib got the twelve person staff

The house has a staff of twelve people

Security and the browns keep an armed hand

Security personnel and the Browns (possibly referring to armed individuals) are present

One of the illest niggas on, off land, asphalt or soft sand

Describing oneself as one of the best, regardless of location or surface

I've been as fast as The Flash, a lil' class and pizzazz

Comparing oneself to the superhero "The Flash," highlighting speed and style

Prefer that water for crystal over your wine glass

Preferencing high-quality water over wine

This a different bracket, the ones who really have it

Referring to a different socioeconomic class, implying true wealth

This the James Worthy and New Balance

Referencing basketball player James Worthy and the brand New Balance

Brand new Converse on Magic, the goggles on Kurt Rambis

Mentioning basketball player Magic Johnson and Kurt Rambis, wearing new shoes

Showtime, whole row of Rolls Royces and the first one mine

Describing a luxurious lifestyle with multiple Rolls Royces

One of the living legends, rep the Eastside

Being a respected figure from the Eastside

Shots fired, claim lives, youngin's abandon they G-ride

Violent incidents leading to loss of life and abandonment of vehicles

They set that bitch on fire, the bounty on your head was high

Repercussions for an action, high risk associated with a bounty

Left in the cash, that bitch and it shine

Retaining wealth despite losses, lamenting common occurrences of such incidents

That shit a shame but that shit be happening all the time

People becoming desensitized to emotions due to frequent exposure to harsh realities

They don't know how to cry because them boys desensitized

Being prepared for action, not just avoiding conflict

Ambitious and ready to ride, ain't just ready to slide

Expressing anger and readiness for confrontation

Angry and they outside, we hanging off them too high

Warning about being targeted or exploited

You gon' get picked like fruit

Metaphorically referring to vulnerability

I'm in New Orleans where the killers got the juice

Referencing New Orleans and its association with dangerous individuals

And some suggestions say it might be best I move

Advice or suggestions to relocate due to safety concerns

But if I dipped who else gon' bring the spaceships through like I do?

Questioning who else can fulfill a specific role or task

My car collection special, Jay Leno of the N.O.

Comparing car collection to Jay Leno's and emphasizing uniqueness

Kept every car I ever bought, each of 'em sentimental

Sentimental attachment to every car purchased

Represent the hard work, each one is a symbol

Cars symbolize hard work and success in the music industry

Of when I started making real dope for wrecking venues

Continuation of a lifestyle involving performance and drug use

Smoke session continues, eenie minie mo

Choosing something enjoyable during a drug-induced state

And pick something cold to slip up into

Inviting someone to join in an enjoyable activity

I get with you

Expressing willingness to engage or spend time with someone
