- Lyrics
- Meaning
[Intro: Mickey Murray]
Lord, have mercy on my soul
How many chickens have I stole?
One last night and night befo'
I'm goin' back and tryna get ten, eleven mo', I'm star—
[Verse: Killer Mike & Mickey Murray]
It ain't dope if you can't sell it, it ain't gas if you can't smell it
This that shit, if you can't tell it, you a lame (You a lame)
If you get digits, then I'm wit' it, crime committed, yo, I did it (Bussin' bricks now, buss-buss-bussin' bricks now)
Must admit it got me rich as fuckin' Richie (Bussin' bricks now, buss-buss-bussin' bricks now, fuckin' Richie)
Bought a dog and named him Dollar, bought my bitch a diamond collar (Bussin' bricks now, bss-buss-bussin' bricks now)
Copped the '96 Impala, two-inch dropper, made a squatter (Bussin' bricks now, bussin' bricks, startin' to get 'em)
Forgis, didn't it cost a dollar? Money funny when you gettin' it
You ain't even gotta spend it, money turned the saints to sinnin'
Been this way since the beginnin', when you broke and got potential
Everybody act offended when you dominate and winnin'
Everybody is a enemy, they pretendin' winnin'
And it's evil asses creepin' on you wit' a semi
Phony fuckers filled wit' envy get you lined right up in Lenox
They intention leave you flat-lined, laid out, meet a early endin'
But that's cliché 'cause you know the consequence that come wit' sinnin' (Come wit' sinnin')
New beginnin', if you really 'bout that, listen, I'm bearin' witness
I'm a nigga that read Robert Beck, watch plays by August Wilson
I really miss my pretty stripper, read me Zora while she kneelin'
It don't matter 'bout our valor if the system say we villains (Bussin' bricks, buss-buss-bussin' bricks now)
It don't matter if you Jamil Al-Amin or Jeffery Williams (Bussin' bricks now, buss-buss-bussin' bricks now)
'Cause yo' enemies the same and they will never see you different (Bussin' bricks, buss-buss-bussin' bricks now)
I'm determined, I'm gon' earn it 'fore I go to Hell or Heaven (Bussin' bricks now, buss-buss-bussin' bricks now)
I could be a Andy Young or I could be a Wesley Merritt (Bussin' bricks now, buss-buss-bussin' bricks now)
What I won't be is a sucker, punk, a chump that's movin' scary, ayy (Bussin' bricks, bricks)
I am all Atlanta from the start until the endin' (Bussin' bricks now, bricks now)
I work a job and break my back and serve a sack to feed my chirren (Bussin' bricks now, bussin' bricks, startin' to get 'em)
[Intro: Mickey Murray]
Mickey Murray starts the song with a plea for mercy, reflecting on his past actions and the desperation that drives him to continue committing crimes. This sets the tone for the song, highlighting the theme of survival by any means necessary.
[Verse: Killer Mike & Mickey Murray]
Killer Mike addresses the realities of dealing drugs, emphasizing that success in the illegal trade is measured by the ability to sell and profit from the product. He reflects on his criminal activities and the wealth they have brought him, symbolized by luxury purchases such as a dog named Dollar and a diamond collar for his partner. The references to a '96 Impala and expensive Forgiato wheels illustrate the material gains from his illicit endeavors.
As the verse continues, Killer Mike acknowledges the corrupting influence of money, stating that it can turn saints into sinners. He touches on the social stigma and hostility faced by those who rise to power through unlawful means, with people around them harboring envy and malice. He describes the constant danger and paranoia of being targeted by envious individuals, which could lead to violent outcomes.
Killer Mike then contrasts his intellectual pursuits, mentioning reading works by Robert Beck and August Wilson, with his involvement in criminal activities. He expresses a sense of inevitability in being labeled a villain by the system, regardless of personal merits or intentions. The reference to figures like Jamil Al-Amin and Jeffery Williams underscores the idea that systemic bias affects everyone similarly, regardless of their background or achievements.
The verse concludes with Killer Mike's determination to succeed and provide for his family despite the challenges. He acknowledges the potential outcomes of his lifestyle, whether it leads to Hell or Heaven, but refuses to be intimidated or compromised. His declaration of loyalty to Atlanta and commitment to hard work and providing for his children encapsulates the song's core themes of resilience, determination, and the struggle against systemic adversity.
