Out Tha Mud
Rising from the Mud: Joe Maynor's Anthem of Triumph and Wealth
Lyrics
Out the mud yea I got it off my reup yea
Expressing success and achievement, having overcome challenges ("Out the mud") through a reup (replenishment of resources).
Now we screaming fuck 12 when they see us yea
Rejecting authority represented by "12" (possibly law enforcement) after achieving success.
I told my niggas we gone be up yea
Assuring friends of future success and prosperity.
Shit been moving so fast I had to speed up yea
Life is hectic and fast-paced, requiring quick adaptation to circumstances.
We pop out spin the block 100 deep
Displaying strength in numbers by being heavily armed and ready for any situation.
I let these 100's get a hold of me
Letting the influence of money shape personal behavior.
I let the money take control of me
Acknowledging the impact of wealth on personal choices.
Then I turned to everything I'm supposed be
Becoming what society expects or dictates due to financial success.
I Pop out with like 3 hoes in this Bentley when I swerve
Being flamboyant with luxury (3 hoes in a Bentley) as a result of financial success derived from words (lyrics).
Crazy cause all of this money coming from my words
Reflecting on the irony that wealth is generated through verbal expression.
Drinking and driving baby I almost hit the curb
Engaging in risky behavior (drinking and driving) while enjoying the fruits of success.
If I get disrespected we turn it to the purge
Responding aggressively to disrespect, possibly with violent consequences ("the purge").
I'm waiting for the day a nigga try to take my pride
Valuing personal pride and anticipating challenges to it.
Opps see me they be acting like they blind
Observing enemies pretending not to notice when confronted.
I ain't ever been the one to go and switch a side
Staying loyal and not switching sides, maintaining integrity.
Cause it ain't no switching sides
Reiterating the commitment to not changing allegiances.
Out the mud yea I got it off my Reup yea
Repeating the success achieved from humble beginnings.
Now we screaming fuck 12 when they see us yea
Reiterating the defiance of authority ("fuck 12") after achieving success.
I told my niggas we gone be up yea
Reassuring friends again of future success and prosperity.
Shit been moving so fast I had to speed up yea
Reiterating the fast-paced nature of life and the need for speed.
We pop out spin the block 100 deep
Continuing to be heavily armed and prepared for any situation.
I let these 100's get a hold of me
Allowing the influence of money to continue shaping behavior.
I let the money take control of me
Reiterating the impact of wealth on personal choices.
Then I turned to everything I'm supposed be
Continuing to conform to societal expectations due to financial success.
I'm young black and I'm rich so I keep a glock on me
Being young, Black, and wealthy, necessitating self-protection with a firearm.
And she know my name so she made it pop for me
A woman recognizing the artist's fame and performing for him.
I need that new foreign wid a drop for me
Desiring a new luxurious car with a convertible top.
I hit my jeweler what you got for me
Inquiring about new jewelry options, emphasizing the materialistic aspect of success.
Cause we gone
Expressing determination to continue and persist.
Break bread
Sharing success with others by breaking bread (sharing wealth).
For all my niggas who was here from where we started
Acknowledging and appreciating the loyalty of those who have been there from the beginning.
I Ain't here to
Emphasizing a focus on personal goals rather than making new friendships.
Make friends
Remaining focused on personal success without distractions.
Until I get it baby i'm going retarted
Committing to work intensely until achieving goals ("going retarded").
