Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah, when I die, leave my chains on

When I'm alive I roll it, light it, smoke it, get me high

But that's just how I brainstorm

Ain't this what we made for?

Light a blunt, jump on a cloud and then I fly away

And I can make it rainstorm

I've been up, this day four, choppin' up cocaine more

Pullin' out in that Wraith car, pistol in the side door (oh)

What you feel alive for?

This ain't what we cry for

This ain't what we die for

Keep a missile, that's my sidearm

Leave out the crib, in all black, with a mask

Got me feelin' like Christian Bale

I gotta cross out the faces on pictures (oh-oh)

'Cause everyone dead or end up in jail

F- his - from the back

But I won't say her name, 'cause I do not kiss and tell (oh)

Know that I'm Heaven-sent, but off the medicine

B-, I might just give 'em hell

We gon' ride for this, they gon' die for this

Back outside with this

Change your mind with this

We gon' ride for this, they gon' die for this

Back outside with this

Change your mind with this

Don't got time for this, out of my mind for this

Too one-sided, -, and I see both sides of -

It's for life with this, it's on sight with this

We got sights for this, got my stripes from this

When I die, put my gang on

They know where my grave goin'

Bury me back in Cleveland inside of the coffin

Sleepin' with the fangs on

I'm a real demon, keep a chainsaw

Might fuck this - with my chains on

Don't ever let the money change y'all

I was high as fuck in the ozone

She was high as - off the unknown

She gon' blow like a trombone

We gon' let off the drumroll, that's a drum solo

Anemic with the -, a heater with the -

I'm hittin' like I'm Derek Jeter with the -

I'm sleepin' with the -

I'm paranoid, keep me a reaper with the -

They creepin' with the -

I'm geekin' off the -, I'm tweakin' off the -

I chop a line and then I eat it off a -

I'm mafioso with the meetings in this -

They prayin' I don't got my demons in this -

Shawty fuckin' sucked the semen off my -

I'm a demon child, real heathen in this -

They want the smoke, bring the heat like a BIC

Ice on my neck, turn the heat on lil' -

I could start up the car with the key to this -

You ain't wanna be down, why agree to this -?

Fuck the world, want it all, I'm a greedy, lil' -

Big Redd got the sauce baked ziti, lil' -

We gon' ride for this, they gon' die for this

Back outside with this

Change your mind with this

We gon' ride for this, they gon' die for this

Back outside with this

Change your mind with this

Don't got time for this, out of my mind for this

Too one-sided, -, and I see both sides of -

It's for life with this, it's on sight with this

We got sights for this, got my stripes from this

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-whoa-oh

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Key Grammar Structures

• When I die, leave my chains on

  ➔ Zero conditional / time clause with 'when' + present simple

  ➔ The clause "When I die" uses the time conjunction *when* followed by the present simple to refer to a future moment, and "leave my chains on" is an imperative command.

• Ain't this what we made for?

  ➔ Colloquial negative contraction 'ain't' + question tag

  ➔ The word "Ain't" is an informal contraction for "is not" or "am not", used here to start a rhetorical question.

• Light a blunt, jump on a cloud and then I fly away

  ➔ Imperative sentences (commands)

  ➔ "Light a blunt" and "jump on a cloud" are commands; the verb appears in its base form without a subject.

• I've been up, this day four, choppin' up cocaine more

  ➔ Present perfect (have/has + past participle)

  ➔ "I've been" combines "I have" with the past participle "been" to express a state that started in the past and continues now.

• Got me feelin' like Christian Bale

  ➔ Causative 'got' + object + present participle

  ➔ "Got me feelin'" uses the causative verb "got" followed by the object "me" and the present participle "feelin'" to mean "made me feel".

• I gotta cross out the faces on pictures

  ➔ Informal modal 'gotta' = have to

  ➔ "gotta" is a colloquial contraction of "got to" meaning "have to" or "must".

• Don't ever let the money change y'all

  ➔ Negative imperative

  ➔ "Don't ever let" uses "do not" + base verb to give a strong prohibition.

• She gon' blow like a trombone

  ➔ Future with 'gon'' (going to)

  ➔ "gon'" is a slang contraction of "going to" used to indicate a future action.

• We gon' ride for this, they gon' die for this

  ➔ Future with 'gon'' (going to) repeated

  ➔ "gon'" appears twice, each time standing for "going to" and expressing a planned or inevitable future action.
