901 Shelby Drive, look alive, look alive 00:25
Niggas came up on this side, now they on the other side 00:28
Oh well, fuck 'em dog, we gon' see how hard they ride 00:32
I get racks to go outside, and I split it with the guys 00:36
We up on the other side, niggas actin' like we tied 00:39
I've been gone since like July, niggas actin' like I died 00:42
They won't be expectin' shit when Capo go to slide 00:46
'Cause I told them that we put that shit behind us, but I lied 00:49
Ayy, ayy, look who I'm around, man 00:53
If I fucked up, I'ma be downtown, man 00:56
Fourth floor bound, man, that's if I get caught, man 00:59
Pushed me to the edge 01:02
So it really ain't my mothafuckin' fault, man 01:04
I'm not to blame, man 01:06
This fucking industry is cutthroat, I'm not the same man 01:08
And I can let you check the tag, now 01:11
I'm rocking name brand 01:14
I'm only chasing after bags now 01:15
I got a game plan 01:16
And I'm out here whipping boots 01:18
700, three high fives, look alive, look alive 01:20
Niggas came up on this side, now they on the other side 01:23
Oh well, fuck 'em dog, we gon' see how hard they ride 01:27
I get racks to go outside, and I split it with the guys 01:30
We up on the other side, niggas actin' like we tied 01:34
I've been gone since like July, niggas actin' like I died 01:37
They won't be expectin' shit when Capo go to slide 01:41
'Cause I told them that we put that shit behind us, but I 01:44
Bitch, come through, you, and you 01:48
I'ma get the money, Dr-Dr-Drizzy get the loot 01:50
Pull up with that Draco 01:54
Play with Drake and I'ma shoot 01:56
My weapon be an instrument 01:57
I'll blow you like a flute 01:59
Nigga play so he feeling it 02:01
Pull up broad day with a K, I ain't shivering 02:03
Drop a nigga like he littering 02:04
We at the door like we the delivery 02:06
He not a plug, he middle man 02:08
That-that nigga brown like cinnamon 02:09
I got the rounds like Sugar Ray Robinson 02:11
Shot to the chest have you gasping for oxygen 02:13
I'ma spray 'em, just like Febreeze 02:15
Came a long way from sitting in the nosebleeds 02:18
Now a nigga on the floor talking to the athletes 02:21
Man I'm so close to the game I could steal the stat sheet 02:23
901 Shelby Drive, look alive, look alive 02:27
Niggas came up on this side, now they on the other side 02:32
Oh well, fuck 'em dog, we gon' see how hard they ride 02:36

Lyrics & Translation

Dive into the energetic world of "Look Alive" by BlocBoy JB and Drake! This track is a fantastic opportunity to grasp the authentic slang and assertive lyrical style common in contemporary hip-hop, particularly the Memphis trap scene. Its unique backstory, involving Drake generously sharing the song, and its viral "shoot dance" phenomenon, make it a culturally significant and engaging piece to explore.

Tay Keith, fuck these niggas on
Yeah, yeah (Ooh)

901 Shelby Drive, look alive, look alive
Niggas came up on this side, now they on the other side
Oh well, fuck 'em dog, we gon' see how hard they ride
I get racks to go outside, and I split it with the guys
We up on the other side, niggas actin' like we tied
I've been gone since like July, niggas actin' like I died
They won't be expectin' shit when Capo go to slide
'Cause I told them that we put that shit behind us, but I lied
Ayy, ayy, look who I'm around, man

Fourth floor bound, man, that's if I get caught, man
Pushed me to the edge
So it really ain't my mothafuckin' fault, man
I'm not to blame, man
This fucking industry is cutthroat, I'm not the same man
And I can let you check the tag, now
I'm rocking name brand
I'm only chasing after bags now
I got a game plan
And I'm out here whipping boots
700, three high fives, look alive, look alive
Niggas came up on this side, now they on the other side
Oh well, fuck 'em dog, we gon' see how hard they ride
I get racks to go outside, and I split it with the guys
