Lyrics

I need my money

I require my money

We stick to the paper

We prioritize earning money

I need my payback

I need retribution or repayment

Plus forty acres

Additionally, forty acres (a historical reference, possibly related to reparations)

All of that labor, everything major

All the hard work, everything significant

When I just wake up, shit you can't make up

When I wake up, the situations are so extraordinary that you can't make them up

Like you

Expressing a similarity with someone

Baby, baby, baby

Reiteration of uniqueness, nothing compares to the mentioned person

Nothing like you

-

Baby, baby, baby

-

Nothing like you

-

It's unexpected, certainly

An unexpected situation

Blow the sirens

Using sirens metaphorically, something urgent

You'd have thought this is an emergency

You might think it's an emergency

Confessions, and I just let it burn like third degree

Confessions, letting things burn emotionally

Gettin' too much money for you niggas not to work with me

Earning a lot of money, expecting collaboration

It's over now

It's concluded or settled

Eight ball in the quarter pocket

A reference to billiards, suggesting a skilled move

Your girl in the spot, of course she jaw droppin'

Someone's significant other is attracting attention

No hustlers, made Milly, off those stove toppings

Successful individuals made money from illegal activities

I seen everything and my vision so poppin'

The speaker has seen everything and has a clear vision

My niggas ball like them globe trotters

The speaker's friends are successful and well-traveled

And the flow hotter

The flow of the speaker's performance is exceptional

Speak to me proper

Respectful communication is expected

And disappear like Jimmy Hoffa

Disappearing mysteriously, like Jimmy Hoffa

Shout out my nigga Phantom and these niggas in the precinct

Acknowledging and appreciating friends and law enforcement

And they singing like an opera

-

Opera

Repetition of "opera" emphasizing dramatic situations

I need my money

Repetition of earlier lines, maintaining the theme and rhythm

We stick to the paper

-

I need my payback

-

Plus forty acres

-

All of that labor, everything major

-

When I just wake up, shit you can't make up

-

Like you

-

Baby, baby, baby

-

Nothing like you

-

Baby, baby, baby

-

Nothing like you

-

It's the prodigal son

-

This that sturdy shit, just not much of the popular one

-

I'm tryin' to open your mind outside poppin' a gun

-

Think a fresh of breath air just poppin' a lung

-

Now let me show you more real estate, stocks and bonds

-

Get a girl pregnant, or pull a baby mom's

-

Either way, boy, you gonna have to take your time

-

You know I knock it all once they all in line

-

And that's just fine

-

I kill that kitty

-

She gonna make a shrine

-

This is God's work, I just move divine

-

Move it with the time

-

The hate, I shake it off

-

Tell her to take it off baby, I'm gonna break you off like

-

I need my money

-

We stick to the paper

-

I need my payback

-

Plus forty acres

-

All of that labor, everything major

-

When I just wake up, shit you can't make up

-

Like you

-

Baby, baby, baby

-

Nothing like you

-

Baby, baby, baby

-

Nothing like you

-

It's over

-

It's over

-

It's over

It's concluded or settled (repeated)
