9 millimeter, my brother’s my keeper
Was serving that ether before I did features
My mamacita, she know how to greet me
She know how to keep me
She better get-
9 millimeter, my brother’s my keeper
Was serving that ether before I did features
My mamacita, she know how to greet me
She know how to keep me

[Verse 1: Vince Staples]
Fuck ya dead homies, run ya bread homie
Got some lead for me, I’m on Artesia
Parked in my Bimmer bumping my own shit
I’m focused, they stuck on that old shit
Livin’ for that True Religion is broke shit
I can spend that on a MAC with a long clip
Fly in that Benz but you hide in that Focus
My nigga just focus, I’m tryin’ to paint you a picture
We stuck in the moment
My burner gets stuck if I shoot it too much
So a nigga resorted to domin’
That’s somebody’s son but a war to be won
Baby either go hunt or be hunted
We crabs in a bucket, he called me a crab
So I shot at him in front of the Douglas
I cannot be fucked with, we thuggin’ in public

My mamacita, she know how to greet me
She know how to keep me, she keep me, she-
[Verse 2: Vince Staples]
What means the world to you?
Is it a fast life, money and clothes?
Probably fuckin’ these hoes
Or what would you murder for?
Will your name hold weight when the curtains close?
Nigga caught one case and I heard he told
Snitch get a full clip and closed casket
Won’t hug your bitch when the ho ratchet
Cold jumper, been shootin’, no practice
Been tourin’, whip foreign, coupe crashin’
Still bangin’ 2 Naughty 2 Nasty
Still „fuck the police” they won’t catch me
My feature too pricey, don’t ask me
Go hard, ’til Goyard on my baggage
He mad we won’t fight, I’m gon’ tag him
Mask up at midnight and start clappin’
Kids crying, still snipe him, no lackin’

[Outro: Snoh Aalegra]
I don’t have a reason, oh but I
I’ll get in your mind
I keep you loaded and ready right here beside of me
I’ll pull up on you
I’ll pull up on your mind
I’ll pull up on you
I’ll pull up on your mind
I’ll pull up on you
I’ll pull up on you
I’ll pull up on you
I’ll pull up on your mind
Tłumaczenie piosenki
Analiza piosenki
W tym kawałku Vince obrazuje nam, jak wygląda życie gangstera. Stawia się w roli zabójcy, pokazując mentalność ludzi, którzy nie wahają się pociągać za spust. Refren zapożyczony jest od Future i nadaje ton utworowi.
To opowieść o tych, którzy zabijanie traktują jako coś najnormalniejszego na świecie. W tym świecie pozbawianie życia innych nie jest niczym dziwnym. Każdy jest gotów to zrobić, potrzebuje tylko dostatecznie dobrego powodu. Czy będą to pieniądze, czy zemsta, albo władza, człowiek potrzebuje tylko odpowiedniego bodźca, by rozwalić głowę innemu.
Świadomość tego, że pozbawił jakiegoś rodzica dziecka, zabił człowieka, będącego w gruncie rzeczy kimś podobnym do sprawcy, w niczym tu nie przeszkadza. Vince pyta tu słuchaczy, jak zostaliby zapamiętali, gdyby nagle przyszło im umrzeć. W końcu po każdym z nas pozostanie tylko pamięć.
To, czy naszą historią będzie tylko moment śmierci, czy może coś wyjątkowego, co zdołaliśmy uczynić za życia, zależy tylko od nas. W rzeczywistości, z której przyszedł Vince trzeba stale zdawać sobie sprawę z tego, że nie znamy dnia ani godziny. Dlatego warto wykorzystać życie do granic, aby móc odejść dumnym ze swej historii.
