The song opens with a declaration of success: “Uh, Yeah I made it, made it, made it out. Shit was down, yeah, I went and took the paper route. Counting down, when to take me out, can’t count me out. Frustrated, fuckin’ with a hater, gotta fade it out.” These lines set a resolute tone, emphasizing the artist’s rise from difficult circumstances. “Taking the paper route” symbolizes choosing a legitimate path to success, while “can’t count me out” underscores his resilience. The frustration with detractors and the need to “fade it out” highlights the constant challenges faced on his journey.
The second verse delves into NatStar’s creative process: “As I’m blowin’ smoke out the Grabba. Gelato taintin’ my thoughts. Plottin’ get out of this situation. It’s out of pocket.”Here, the imagery of smoking and the influence of Gelato (a cannabis strain) on his thoughts suggest the use of substances to enhance creativity. The strategic thinking expressed in “plotting get out of this situation” showcases his determination to improve his circumstances.
NatStar also draws inspiration from iconic figures in the music industry: “Yeah, I made it like Beats by Dre in his prime. Shit, I remember listenin’ to Beats by Dre in his prime.” This comparison to Dr. Dre in his prime reflects high aspirations and acknowledges the influence of legendary artists on his career.
In the third verse, NatStar focuses on his legacy and financial wisdom: “I inherit the DNA of a winner, gotta engage. My mama and dad still proud of they son out of space. Still care if they proud of me, shit, this is everything they made.” Here, he pays homage to his parents while asserting his own identity and accomplishments. The emphasis on making his parents proud reveals a deep sense of familial pride and duty.
He also offers practical financial advice: “Instead of blowin’ checks, invest it in everything you make. With that, I manifest, put that in my face.” This line advocates for wise investment over frivolous spending, highlighting the importance of financial literacy in achieving and maintaining success.
The final verse addresses broader societal challenges: “21 countries shit, not bad for a Black jack. I grew up with facts lacked, we do what we told shit. Don’t question the old heads. Don’t question police or see a piece to your forehead.” NatStar reflects on growing up in a restrictive environment where questioning authority was discouraged. The line “not bad for a Black jack” celebrates his achievements despite systemic obstacles faced by Black individuals.
The song concludes with a metaphor for empowerment: “We goin’ fish in the sea, you can have the rod. Show you how to fish. That’s how you make it out.” This emphasizes the importance of self-sufficiency and knowledge, advocating for teaching skills and wisdom to others to enable their success.
