Cake Up
Elevate Your Hustle: Venita Moore's Anthem to Empowerment and Wealth
Lyrics
Uh-Huh
Expressing affirmation or agreement
Girl I hear you
Acknowledging the speaker's understanding of the girl's words
While you complaining
While you're expressing dissatisfaction
You need to be trying to get to this money
Suggesting the focus should be on making money
We women
Highlighting the capabilities of women
We make shit happen
Asserting women's ability to make things happen
Now let’s get to this money
Encouraging action towards earning money
Chorus
Repeating the hook of the song
Ladies get your cake up (cake up, cake up, cake up, cake up, cake up, cake up)
Encouraging women to increase their financial status
Fellas get your money (money out, money out, money out, money out, money out)
Advising men to focus on earning money
Yeah
An expression of agreement or affirmation
(Repeat)
Reiteration of agreement or affirmation
Verse One
Starting the first verse of the song
It goes like this and you motherfucking know it
Asserting knowledge or confidence about a situation
I’m in this bitch motherfucking damn rover
Being present or active in a particular environment
Hell, I’m focus, focus, focus (that’s right I’m trying to get this cake up)
Emphasizing intense concentration or dedication to making money
I’m trying to scope this bitch out
Trying to assess the situation or environment
Niggas on the left
Men on one side aren't discussing anything meaningful
Ain’t talking about shit
Women on the other side lack self-assurance
These bitches on the right
Reiteration of intense focus on making money
Lack all confidence
-But I’m focus focus…I’m trying to get this cake up
Re-emphasizing the determination to make money
Chorus
Repeating the chorus of the song
Cake up (cake up, cake up, cake up, cake up, cake up, cake up)
Reiterating the need for women to enhance their financial status
Fellas get your money (money out, money out, money out, money out, money out)
Reiterating the advice for men to focus on making money
Yeah
An expression of agreement or affirmation
(Repeat)
Reiteration of agreement or affirmation
Verse Two
Starting the second verse of the song
When you walking through the door
Emphasizing the act of entering a space
Getting paper is all you know
Stating the commitment to making money
Ain’t nothing nobody’s gonna do for you like you do
Self-reliance emphasized; no one will support as oneself
Take advantage of this night and time
Encouraging seizing the present moment for financial gain
To get your money right
Advising to focus on earning money during the current time
Because it’s out here for you…for you…for you
Asserting that opportunities exist for financial success
I’m just trying to say that it’s out here for…for you (for you)
Reiteration of opportunities available for financial success
Ooooh (yeah) that’s right
Expressing affirmation or agreement
I’m trying to get this cake up
Reiterating the determination to earn money
Ooooh (yeah) that’s right
-I’m trying to get this cake up
Reiteration of the commitment to making money
Chorus
Repeating the chorus encouraging women to enhance their financial status
Ladies get your cake up (cake up, cake up, cake up, cake up, cake up, cake up)
Reiterating the advice for men to focus on making money
Fellas get your money (money out, money out, money out, money out, money out)
An expression of agreement or affirmation
Yeah
Reiteration of agreement or affirmation
(Repeat 4x)
Reiteration of the chorus multiple times
Now let’s get to this money
Encouragement to focus on making money
