Lyrical Analysis of...
verse for young-j
- okay, so hold on and wait a minute, what's happening?
- [summoned while watching drummond run up a buttoned up, shit was travelling ](drummond as in andre drummond, so travel is a double entendre like both travelling through space and travel as in basketball travel)
- [matter of fact, he passing it to posterize, but i just polarize ](saying drummond wanna dunk on that button up guy to hype the crowd, but i split that energy and focus it on me because i'm so auraful {joke}. so the bar's juxtaposing showmanship and control)
- [no advice be matching my mind, act that on a poltergeist ](polarise as in split people apart, but also polarise as in to restrict waves of light to vibrate in only one direction. i'm using the second meaning for the poltergeist, like restraining it)
- [i rap and yap crap so i could get out of this place, fame i chase ](referencing the common mentality across hood rappers, they want to get out of the hood to lead a better life, so they chase fame to get a shot at doing so)
- [brazen face emblazoned with confidence, my shit substance lased ](imagery to show i'm cocky and bold, then substance as in like substance in raps meaning and substance like illegal substances, so laced. but also substance laced because i misspelled laced as lased, but there's a meaning behind that)
- [laser ed b fourteen on my back like a medal, reluctance erased ](lased seems like a typo of both laser and laced, so lasered b14 on my back, it's like a reference to this crappy nollywood film called b14 from ghana, and there's this one scene where the cyborg tats b14 on some guy's shoulder to signify belonging, and in the scene he was screaming in pain)
- [i'd rather not get too comfortable i'd make it, still a bumpkin who plays ](reflects the constant fear of hood rappers that they won't be noticed and won't make it in the industry)
- //imagine me with a blaccent after this point 😭like young thug voice or nba youngboy or sth like that //
- imagine an alter ego of me where i'm thugging with y j
- drugging the opps, then i slime 'em, yeah i'm was sliding in my day
- shit, chigga i'm drunk driving, hit a drive by up on rosecrans
- shooting dice with some chiggas i don't know, fuck yo bromance
- only fuck ass i fuck with is j, we bumping pac in the car
- [he dropping the art of the war, sun tzu like pocketing bars ](it's like pac's dropping street wisdom so my alter ego and young j listening and studying it, also sun tzu wrote the art of war so there's that)
- stars is aligning as we roll up in ski masks
- no one can see us, we bust in and now we think fast
- get and shoot the gat strapped (doot doot doot), get the cash then we sneak past
- [the cops is just outside (shit!) pack our bags 'fore the x relapse ](if you're on drugs, your brain can't function properly without them because withdrawal, so like get back home and smoke xanax before withdrawal happens)
- and then we back home, then relax (huh) roll the xanax then [bleach tracks ](like hide crime evidence)
- hope they don't see past the windows and peep us count up the new racks
- but you may ask why young j got trust issues (why?)
- cause i took all the money, turned him in, ain't even say "i miss you"
