The lyrics of the song goes, “Them ni**as act like they don't need us, They do everything we do, they wanna be us/ Found them takin' ecstasy, they tryna T up, He rather go and blow her back instead of R'up/ You weren't on that block when that shit was goin' on, I wasn't worryin' 'bout the other side when that shit was goin' on/ And we don't hang with different ni**as, don't ask us what we on.”  Interestingly, Lil Durk also has one of the chains on in the music video which Von used to wear.
