    [Chorus]

    [Verse]

    12

    First they said that faggot hot

    13

    Then they let that junkie shine (Yeah)

    14

    Gave 'em all the fucking trophies, tell me where the fuck is mine?

    15

    I'm back on the underground

  4. 16

    Back where I belong now

    17

    Told you how I milked it

    18

    This is how I feel now

    19

    Focus on my lyrics now, I'm having a melt down

  5. 20

    I don’t wanna sip tea or chit chat on your sofa (Nah)

    21

    Bitch, I ain't Jay-Z, fuck you Oprah (Fuck you bitch!)

    22

    Suck dick, deep throat and gag, now I'm mad

    23

    You don’t like hip-hop

    Block noteReduces the target to a dismissive caricature

    TargetLil Wayne

    MeaningWhat it means: In “Bitch, I ain't Jay-Z, fuck you Oprah (Fuck you bitch!),” 50 Cent replaces Lil Wayne's preferred identity with a degrading label intended to make the opponent look ridiculous or contemptible. Why it was said: The track uses direct names and competitive references to address several of 50 Cent's rap-industry rivals and former associates. The label gives the audience a short, repeatable frame for the feud; repetition of that frame can shape how Lil Wayne is remembered.

    ContextThe track uses direct names and competitive references to address several of 50 Cent's rap-industry rivals and former associates.

  6. 24

    Then we don’t like your ass

    25

    Fuck your award shows, don’t even mention my shit

    26

    I'm the hottest nigga on the net, they can't censor my shit

    27

    I say what the fuck I wanna say

    Block noteMakes the confrontation explicit

    TargetLil Wayne

    MeaningWhat it means: In “Then we don’t like your ass,” 50 Cent addresses Lil Wayne directly and makes the situation described in the quoted line the point of confrontation. Why it was said: The track uses direct names and competitive references to address several of 50 Cent's rap-industry rivals and former associates. Naming or plainly addressing Lil Wayne removes the safety of a subliminal and makes the quoted claim something the target can either answer or leave standing.

    ContextThe track uses direct names and competitive references to address several of 50 Cent's rap-industry rivals and former associates.
