Give 'em the game, that's like giving chocolate to the fat
Look, how you think I got here?
That's the same game that came through where I lived as a kid
in the bad luck truck and threw boxes off the back
Made me a ripper, deliver like Riva =]
content a little more thicker, slicker
Yeah, and they said oil and water don't mix
Now they all down at the beach washing off the fish
it was Blackbeard 'til I brought the Roc into your ships
YEAH!
"PRESSURE"

ReplyDeleteDELIVER like RIVA!!!!
ReplyDelete:-)
Lol.
I've always interpreted the lyrics as, "Deliver like river," and "'til I brought the rocking to your ships." ...Sticking with the nautical theme and such.
ReplyDeleteI take 'deliver like river' too, like, what's prolly one of the most forms of stuff bein delivered if ya think about it...
ReplyDeleteand i think he's using a double entendre on 'brought the Roc/ Rocking'-Cause who did he have on this song? and co produce his album? Jay-Z, Rocafella.....
You guys realize that there's a smiley behind Riva, right?...just check who left a comment above you...
ReplyDeleteI noticed, but since I'm not in on the inside jokes, just thought I would chip in my two cents.
ReplyDeleteYa, i actually did notice, it's cute
ReplyDeleteits not rocking...its rock, cuz rocks sink ships. the double entendre about Jay still stands, but rocking a ship has nothing to do with it.
ReplyDeletethis is dope right here. he's saying he lived and went thru the same gangsta and hood ish every other rapper raps about. "how you think i got here? that's the same game that came through where i lived as a kid in the bad luck truck and threw boxes off the back" shit toughened him up. "made me a ripper." improved his craft and rap content. but he dont rap about it, he tries to uplift even tho he's lived that same negativity. "and they said oil and water don't mix..." illll.
ReplyDeleteLupe is really a Genius. Dead Nice you have to really read into his rhymes. SMH he's the Greatest EVER
