Venturing into the world of hip-hop bravado, this track is a powerful assertion of success and dominance. The artists, KSI, Future, and 21 Savage, use their lyrics to depict a narrative of rising from adversity and achieving greatness. They question the loyalty of those who were absent during their struggles but appear when success is attained, hence the recurring line "Where were you when I was down?" The song title "Number 2" can be seen as a metaphorical jab at those who doubted them or treated them as secondary. Overall, this song serves as an anthem for resilience and triumph over hardship, while also criticizing fair-weather friends and casting doubt on their authenticity.
Number 2
Lyrics
Oh, yeah
Lord forgive us, oh, oh(D-Diego)
Lord forgive us, ooh, ooh (Mally Mall)
(B-B-Bankroll Got It)
Gi-gi
Hit me on my burner, hit me on my burner, ayy
All we know is murder, all we know is murder
It's goin' down in my hood
They shootin' rounds in my hood
they shootin' rounds in my hood (Lord, please)
Tears in your eyes, on your mama cheek
Bloodstains dryin' on the concrete
Yeah, we be like, "Fuckin' all that Twitter shit"
All my niggas militant, take a hit for benefit (gi-gi)
And I'm fuckin' all the witnesses
These strippers bitches ain't gon' say shit
Ayy, that's an unsolved freak (freaky, freaky)
Have mercy on a G (woo)
Whole gang up, all my brothers lit (true)
Racks on racks, ain't too much to spend (never waitin')
All come through when they wanna live (see they with the)
New chain chillin' and it got a twin
Ah, ooh (yeah, yeah)
Where were you when I was down?
Where were you? (Where were you?)
Guess you is the shit now, number two (look at you)
In the circus you a clown, look at you (you)
Bringin' views (ah)
I pick what I want it then I cop, cop
That shit you dropped just gon' flop, flop
When the future is present, we pop off
Then tell me how can I drop off? (Yeah)
Their demeanor is fugazi
When you reach my level, man, many men they'll seem lazy (brr)
Plaque after plaque while the industry's on my back
Nineteen on my wrist so I'm roamin' in with the pack
I got runners on the andale
They go to west, we're never packin' for the holidays
Been dodgin' through this, since the time because my money gone
Been gettin' boomers since the mainstream got their focus on
The focus number one
Never follow rules, I was skippin' school (21)
You know I ain't friendly so quit actin' like we cool (pussy)
Spin them niggas block 'cause we have nothin' else to do (21)
Ain't trippin' 'bout no bitch
You know I'm a player, I tie my shoes (on God)
All my diamonds hit up (21)
Wet your block in a pick up (21)
All, all my cars they go fast
Face ain't shit but I like her ass
I don't love her but I love my cash
Covid-19, I'm wearin' my mask
You know I'm out here thuggin'
So suck me like you love me (facts)
Last opp played with us, we turned his ass duppy (whacked)
I'm a big dog and I love to step on puppy (21)
Two-tone Maybach, same color Kentucky (21)
Whole gang up, all my brothers lit
Racks on racks, ain't too much to spend
All come through when they wanna live
New chain chillin' and it got a twin
Ah, ooh (yeah, yeah)
Where were you when I was down?
Where were you? (Where were you?)
Guess you is the shit now, number two (look at you)
In the circus you a clown, look at you (you)
Bringin' views (ah)
