In this collaboration between 2 Chainz and Swae Lee, the artists delve into themes of wealth, pain, and the paradox of fame. They juxtapose their current affluent lifestyles with past struggles, emphasizing how money can serve as both a remedy and a source of new complications. The lyrics reflect on the irony of being "broke and famous," highlighting societal pressures and the hollow nature of fame without financial stability. The song also touches on loyalty, danger, and survival in challenging environments. By referencing luxurious locales like the Caymans, they underscore their ascent from hardship to prosperity while cautioning against superficial success that lacks substance or security.
Caymans
Lyrics
Ooh, oooh-ooh-ooh
Yeah
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ohh (back to back)
Smoke session (yeah) (ay, Papito)
Just gave a hundred dollars to the water boy (yeah)
Keep it straight up and down like corduroy (alright)
The .40 got a thirty and it's paranoid (let's go)
If I ain't have no bags to sell I'd be unemployed
You know I smoke a lot for the pain, bitch (pain, bitch)
Money talk, yeah, I speak the language (language)
If you fuck with me, you gonna sang this (sang this)
How you gon' be broke and famous? (Hey, hey)
They tell you be safe, stay dangerous (dangerous)
They'll swap ya life out for payments (payments)
My homie just skipped his arraignment (hey)
The last pic he posted looked like the Caymans (yeah, yeah)
Okay, sipping slow, had her climbing shit on her tippy toes
Lick it slow, I'ma cash you out, baby, give and go
Luminant, I can see the light when the blinds close
From the trench I can smell a snitch, nigga blindfold
(Yeah, uh)
Walk in the spot and I think I smell rhinestones
You got a fake chain, cool you can't have five on (nah)
This a no fly zone, somebody turn the lights on (yeah, yeah)
You know I smoke a lot for the pain, bitch (pain, bitch)
Money talk, yeah, I speak the language (language)
If you fuck with me, you gonna sang this (sang this)
How you gon' be broke and famous? (Famous)
You know I smoke a lot for the pain, bitch (pain)
Money talk, yeah, I speak the language (language)
If you fuck with me, you gonna sang this (sang this)
How you gon' be broke and famous? (Famous)
Broken-hearted but you got paper now
I guess you still broke and famous
I told you don't get caught up with the wrong niggas
It's your life you gotta do what you do
I love to bust it down in the Caymans (Caymans)
Body like that make me stay in (stay in)
Dollar signs talk to me, sign language (sign language)
I can't lie to you and I hate it (hate it)
You know I sip just to pain kill (just to pain kill)
Double cup, same meal for my brain cells (brain cells)
What we do baby, this is grown business (oh no)
You into ventin', running up the phone bill (phone bill)
You know I smoke a lot for the pain, bitch (yeah)
Money talk, yeah, I speak the language (language)
If you fuck with me, you gonna sang this (sang this)
How you gon' be broke and famous? (Famous)
You know I smoke a lot for the pain, bitch (pain)
Money talk, yeah, I speak the language
If you fuck with me, you gonna sang this (sang this)
How you gon' be broke and famous? (Ohh)
How you gon' be broke and famous? (Whoa)
Uh, uh, yeah, yeah
How you gon' be broke and famous? (Yo)
Now you know me, check this out
I ain't tryna, I ain't tryna talk down on nobody
You know, that's not what I'm here for, you know, I been poor before
Basically what I'm saying though, uh
If you got something that people wanna see, wanna be a part of
You need to use that to take care of you and yours
Can't be out here struggling
(Tony)
