- Meaning
[Intro]
(808 Mafia)
Uh
[Chorus]
How I go so hard, they still discredit my talent
Took shit too far, now they regrettin' what happened
Hard for my mama to accept I'm a savage (Uh, uh)
You play, I'm lettin' you have it (Uh, uh)
Them shots let off, that's too much blood for a napkin
They claim we locked in, what if I wasn't rappin'?
Fiend for that ecstasy, couldn't keep from relapsin'
Bring out the best in me or be a distraction, uh
[Verse 1]
If I tell my stepper, "Come and slide," then he comin'
And I know it's fucked up how he daily out there huntin'
Heartless livin', savage life, that's just how he bomin'
But shit, at least it's a nigga I can count on for something, uh
We let them cannons spark, play with us, get punished, uh
We really had it hard, now blessings abundant
Cheered 'til I hit the top, now they can't wait to see me plummet
Like for every win, another L come punch me in my stomach
I couldn't even enjoy my birthday, bitch come to me about assumptions
They can't fuck with me on my worst day, I done ran it up, all hundreds
Baby, Chiraq is my birthplace, if we got a problem, we slump it
Hard times spent, it's the worst pain and you never get refunded, uh
[Chorus]
How I go so hard, they still discredit my talent
Took shit too far, now they regrettin' what happened
Hard for my mama to accept I'm a savage (Uh, uh)
You play, I'm lettin' you have it (Uh, uh)
Them shots let off, that's too much blood for a napkin
They claim we locked in, what if I wasn't rappin'?
Fiend for that ecstasy, couldn't keep from relapsin'
Bring out the best in me or be a distraction, uh (Uh)
[Verse 2]
Twin Glocks, Tia and Tamera, yeah, these my new bitches
Hit they block with two switches, it make my shottas shoot different
We can empty out two hundred shots in less than two minutes
And B was one of ours, so that shouldn't be a name that you mention
Hope when I'm talkin', you listen 'cause I'm just hoping you get it
I tell my nigga 'bout hisself, hate ain't got nothin' to do with it
And you can't call my phone for help, that's if I heard that you snitchin'
Don't speak on bodies on your belt, this just ain't how we do business, uh
Bad news turn your whole day tragic, all they heard was that K clappin'
Any problem, we steppin' up like the crate challenge
Left my heart on that notepad and that still wasn't enough
Lotta snake bites, got low grass, can't feel or trust
[Chorus]
How I go so hard, they still discredit my talent
Took shit too far, now they regrettin' what happened
Hard for my mama to accept I'm a savage (Uh, uh)
You play, I'm lettin' you have it (Uh, uh)
Them shots let off, that's too much blood for a napkin
They claim we locked in, what if I wasn't rappin'?
Fiend for that ecstasy, couldn't keep from relapsin'
Bring out the best in me or be a distraction, uh
[Intro]
Polo G opens the song with a brief introduction, setting the tone with a shoutout to the producers and a hint of the intense emotions that will unfold.
[Chorus]
In this section, Polo G questions how his talent continues to be discredited despite his hard work. He expresses frustration over the consequences of his actions and the difficulties his mother faces in accepting his harsh lifestyle. The repeated references to violence and regret highlight the toll his choices have taken on both himself and those around him. The idea of being a "savage" and the imagery of bloodshed underscore the brutal environment he navigates. He also reflects on the fleeting loyalty of others and his struggles with addiction, revealing that despite the chaos, he's searching for something or someone that can either elevate him or become a mere distraction.
[Verse 1]
Here, Polo G paints a vivid picture of the violent world he inhabits, where trust is scarce, and survival often depends on aggressive actions. He acknowledges the cruel nature of his lifestyle but finds some solace in knowing he has reliable allies. The lyrics explore the constant tension between success and the fear of downfall, as Polo G describes how every achievement is followed by a setback. The verse also touches on personal pain, including how external pressures can ruin even the most personal moments, like his birthday. The mention of his birthplace, Chicago (referred to as "Chiraq"), emphasizes the harsh realities that have shaped him.
[Verse 2]
In this verse, Polo G introduces the metaphor of "Twin Glocks" as his "new bitches," symbolizing his readiness for violence and the consequences that come with it. He warns others to listen closely, as his words are not just for entertainment but a reflection of his reality. Trust is a significant theme here, as Polo G describes the consequences of betrayal, stating that snitches have no place in his world. The verse also reflects on the pain that bad news can bring and the emotional scars left by betrayal. The crate challenge reference adds a contemporary touch, highlighting the danger and risk inherent in his life. Finally, Polo G concludes with a reflection on the difficulties of trusting others, using the imagery of snake bites and low grass to convey the ever-present threat of deceit.
