[Verse 2]
Mask like Bane, Dark Knight like Wayne
Gangstas with mic skills is missing from the game
Stand up G, I strive for my son
But the cold ass streets forced✦ me to cradle with my guns
Ones✦ is the only✦ thing that matters
I try to keep it real, they just care about✦ swagger
King of New York shit, meet me at the Plaza✦
You can talk shit and get hawk with the dagger✦
I'm on it, on one, up one
Probably on the dolo✦ with the Top Gun
Shout to polo✦ niggas✦ with the dutch done
Trinnies on the bamboo,✦ jeps on the raw booze
Salute✦ to the jail niggas✦ that never✦ wanna✦ call home
You should do the science
If you don't know math then build your alliance
But will yo man stand in the pan when you frying?
All of us is living✦ but all of us is dying
Getting money✦ or you trying
[Chorus]
Play no more around✦ this town
Play no more around✦ this town
'Cause I am gonna✦ shoot you down
[Verse 3]
Blow a OZ, meditate✦ and levitate✦
Time is money,✦ nigga,✦ so we never✦ wait
We got shit to do, kill you off of principle✦
School, I ain't listen✦ 'cause I thought I was the principle✦
Custom kidding on the European
You see me, I blow the weed and then I look Korean✦
But I ain't from Korea✦ though
Life's✦ a bitch, money✦ gon' burn like gonorrhea though
It's all truth or it's all lies
Need a bionic✦ man or the fall guy
I'm major like Lee Majors
Car money✦ from crack as a teenager, what
[Chorus]
Play no more around✦ this town
Play no more around✦ this town
'Cause I am gonna✦ shoot you down

Verified Doubles & Entendres

"Mask like Bane, Dark Knight like Wayne"

① Reference to the Batman antagonist and protagonist as archetypes of villainy and heroism.② A duality of the rapper's personality: the menacing exterior (Bane) and the tactical, wealthy, or 'calculated' mindset (Wayne).

"But will yo man stand in the pan when you frying?"

① A literal reference to the heat of the streets and the danger of being involved in criminal activity (the pan).② A question of loyalty: will your associate remain by your side when the situation (the frying) becomes dangerous or life-threatening?

Consistent, authoritative vocal delivery

Effective use of cinematic allusion (Bane/Wayne/Top Gun)

Strong rhythmic pocket maintenance

Some metaphors rely on established rap tropes rather than unique insights

Limited semantic depth outside of street narratives

Rhyme schemes are sometimes predictable in their terminal placement
