Energy Lyrics

Lickwood means rewind, a gunshot means forward
You requested it, so we rewind

Yeah
Way, way, way up
Turn it all up
Yeah
Look

I got enemies, got a lotta enemies
Got a lotta people tryna drain me of my energy
They tryna take the wave from a nigga
Fuckin' with the kid and pray for your nigga

I got girls in real life tryna fuck up my day
Fuck goin' online, that ain't part of my day
I got real shit poppin' with my family too
I got niggas that can never leave Canada too
I got two mortgages, thirty million in total
I got niggas that'll still try fuckin' me over
I got rap niggas that I gotta act like I like
But my actin' days are over, fuck them niggas for life, yeah

I got enemies, got a lotta enemies
Got a lotta people tryna drain me of this energy
They tryna take the wave from a nigga
Fuckin' with the kid and pray for your nigga

I got people talkin' down, man, like I give a fuck
I bought this one a purse, I bought this one a truck
I bought this one a house, I bought this one a mall
I keep buyin' shit just make sure you keep track of it all
I got bitches askin' me about the code for the Wi-Fi
So they can talk about they timeline
And show me pictures of they friends
Just to tell me they ain't really friends
Ex-girl, she the female version of me
I got strippers in my life, but they virgins to me
I hear everybody talkin' 'bout what they gon' be
I got high hopes for you niggas, we gon' see
I got money in the courts 'til all my niggas are free
'Bout to call your ass a Uber, I got somewhere to be
I hear fairy tales 'bout how they gon' run up on me
Well, run up when you see me then and we gon' see

I got enemies, got a lotta enemies
Got a lotta people tryna drain me of this energy
Tryna take the wave from a nigga
Fuckin' with the kid and pray for your nigga

Yeah
Yeah

Naw, fuck all of you niggas I ain't finished
Y'all don't wanna hear me say it's a goal
Y'all don't wanna see Win Win, 50 or Whoa
I got real ones livin' past Kennedy Road
I got real ones with me everywhere that I go
I'm tryna tell ya, I got enemies, got a lotta enemies
Every time I see 'em somethin' wrong with their memory
Tryna take the wave from a nigga
So tired of savin' all these niggas, mayne!

Yeah, run up

I got enemies, got a lotta enemies
Got a lotta people tryna drain me of this energy
Tryna take the wave from a nigga
Fuckin' with the kid and pray for your nigga

I'm off this, man

What is the Meaning of Energy?

In this hard-hitting track, the artist delves into the struggles of fame and success. He speaks about the numerous challenges he faces, from people trying to exploit his success for their own gain, to maintaining authenticity in a world full of pretense. The song is a candid portrayal of how draining it can be to constantly deal with negativity and deception. The lyric "Got a lotta people tryna drain me of this energy" encapsulates the main theme of the song - fighting off those who seek to bring him down and sap his strength. Despite these issues, he remains defiant and unapologetic about his accomplishments, asserting that he won't let anyone take away his wave or momentum. The song serves as both a venting outlet for the artist and a powerful statement of resilience against adversity.
