Headie One's track delves into the juxtaposition between street life and newfound success. The lyrics chronicle his journey from engaging in illicit activities to achieving financial stability through music. He reflects on loyalty, the consequences of criminal actions, and the pursuit of wealth. The repeated reference to "five figures" symbolizes significant earnings, whether from legitimate or illegal means. His mention of "Lizzie" (a slang term for money) illustrates his commitment to financial gain. Headie One also critiques the superficiality of modern culture, contrasting it with a return to authenticity among his peers. The song underscores a transformation from survival in harsh environments to aspirations of luxury—such as owning a house with many tiles—while acknowledging the persistent challenges posed by law enforcement and societal expectations.
Five Figures
Lyrics
Yo (turn)
Me and Lizzie walked down that aisle
Now my outfit more than a couple thou' (One)
My nigga Vel chinged a yout bare face
And he still took the chance at trial (One)
I know that the new generation's fake
But trust me, the real niggas back in style
Gang dem style, cop that box, Pacquiao
Get it in, then smash it out
Man a 9-bar went in, not Michael Kao
I ain't go sleep in the bando, nah
One day I'll buy a house with lots of tiles (turn, turn)
Five figures if I touch down
Either I'm uptown or out of town
Five figures if I touch down
Either I'm uptown or out of town
My young boy in the Bailey, not Crown, yo
How you lifed off and still countin' down?
Feds wanna see us down and out
Truth is, they love it when the gang go wild
Watch doin' grow like a brussels sprout
He just wanted to do it for the gang, not clout
That's why we see the jakes on ten toes, Asafa Powell ten toes
Dodgin' them jakes, all I wanted was Velcro's
Hit the jailhouse, it was knees and elbows
Now I get sold-out shows, man shell those
Adidas tracksuit, shell toes
Rekindle, man throw a stack in the crowd (turn)
Me and Lizzie walked down that aisle
Now my outfit more than a couple thou' (One)
My nigga Vel chinged a yout bare face
And he still took the chance at trial (One)
I know that the new generation's fake
But trust me, the real niggas back in style
Gang dem style, cop that box, Pacquiao
Get it in, then smash it out
Man a 9-bar went in, not Michael Kao
I ain't go sleep in the bando, nah
One day I'll buy a house with lots of tiles (turn, turn)
Five figures if I touch down
Either I'm uptown or out of town
Five figures if I touch down
Either I'm uptown or out of town (One)
Talk minimum five to be in my call log (my name)
Woods on smoke, they should boot it like orchard (brrt)
All for the bros, no Warner (brrt)
No ID like no caller (brrt, brrt)
Excellent finish, all when it mattered like Kingsley Coman (suh)
New shit, X3, not to flex in, that car's stolen (suh, suh, suh, suh, s-s-s-s-suh)
Interview room, we don't do no talkin'
We don't sit well with rats or rodents
Got in the bando, not my emotions
That quarter turned into a two and a daughter (One)
Then into a corner (One)
Trident all on my doorstep tryna ask me about courier (s-s-s-s-suh)
I told them, "I got no idea", Don Toliver (suh, suh)
Me and Lizzie walked down that aisle
Now my outfit more than a couple thou' (One)
My nigga Vel chinged a yout bare face
And he still took the chance at trial (One)
I know that the new generation's fake
But trust me, the real niggas back in style
Gang dem style, cop that box, Pacquiao
Get it in, then smash it out
Man a 9-bar went in, not Michael Kao
I ain't go sleep in the bando, nah
One day I'll buy a house with lots of tiles (turn, turn)
Five figures if I touch down
Either I'm uptown or out of town
Five figures if I touch down
Either I'm uptown or out of town
