[Verse 2]
Coca leaf and potpourris
Chains over Le Coq Sportif
Don't brag bricks to me
If they ain't tell you to bring your skis
My Patek, hers petit
The triple play be E. Phillips
Bird feathers done made me chief
Whatever happened to black marquise?
Might buy your bitch a jeep
I can make you lose your sleep
You millionaires on just TV
Now make it make sense to me
[Chorus]
If money✦ is the evil root
Let the smokers shine the coupes
Rich bitches that love the boost
I'm just here to find the truth
If kilograms is the proof
I done sold the golden goose
I got 'em, baby,✦ I'm Jim Perdue
Cocaine's Dr. Seuss

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

Pusha T maintains his signature minimalist luxury-drug aesthetic, relying on precise, detached delivery and specific brand-name signaling rather than complex, multi-layered technical bar structures.

Verified Doubles & Entendres

"My Patek, hers petit"

① The speaker wears a high-end Patek Philippe watch.② The speaker contrasts the high-status watch with a smaller, perhaps less significant version of a watch or lifestyle for his female companion.

"I got 'em, baby, I'm Jim Perdue"

① Reference to the poultry magnate Frank Perdue, implying he is the 'chicken' or 'bird' man of the drug trade.② A play on 'getting them' (bricks/weight), casting the rapper as the kingpin controlling the supply chain.

"Cocaine's Dr. Seuss"

① The rapper is a master of creating rhymes and stories out of the drug trade, much like the author.② It suggests that, like the iconic author, the speaker is the foundational creator of the 'world' of cocaine rap.

Strong brand-focused imagery consistent with Pusha T's persona

Effective use of minimalist cadence to emphasize lyrical arrogance

Coherent thematic focus on drug-trade success

Low multisyllabic rhyme density

Short line lengths limit the opportunity for complex, evolving rhyme schemes

Over-reliance on repetitive vowel sounds (the 'ee' rhyme)
