• SECURITY

The song really revolves around the hustle for money and recognition. Jazz talks about how fast success can come and how it's important to make the most of it. There’s also a hint of caution about relationships, especially with people who say they care but might not mean it. It’s this balancing act of wanting to enjoy life while staying focused on what matters most to him: the bag.

Verse 1

But I gotta get to the bag (I gotta get to the bag) It's comin' so fast I pray that it last (Pray that it last) We coming in first, you coming in last (You coming in last) I walk in the bank and I do my dance (I gotta, I gotta, I gotta) I gotta get to the bag

In this first verse, Jazz sets the tone for the entire song. He emphasizes the urgency to get money and succeed, repeating the phrase "I gotta get to the bag." This repetition shows how driven he is. He also contrasts his success with others, claiming he’s ahead while they’re falling behind. The line about dancing in the bank adds a playful vibe, suggesting he’s enjoying his success while being aware it could be fleeting.

Chorus

I gotta get to the bag (I gotta get to the bag) It's coming so fast I pray that it last (Pray that it last) We coming in first, you coming in last (You coming in last) I walk in the bank and I do my dance (I gotta, I gotta, I gotta)

The chorus reinforces the main message of the song. It’s catchy and repetitive, making it easy to remember. Jazz is not just focused on money; he’s also hoping it will stick around. His confidence shines through as he repeats how he’s ahead of the pack. The imagery of dancing in the bank feels celebratory, highlighting that he’s not just working hard, but also enjoying the fruits of his labor.

Verse 2

I am a phenom (yeah) I am the phenom (yeah) I am the one with the power You wanted the power But you are a cleaner (yeah) Oh that's your girl, you better watch her my nigga 'Cause she need a shoulder to lean on I am the nigga they pree on Niggas be dissing but I never respond (yeah) Ain't nobody finna south the vision Dream of a mill in a Honda Civic (yeah) Stuck in the street hear my momma trippin' (yeah) Now me and my momma sharing new beginnings (woo) I wasn't that smart in class (woo) But I was amazin' in math (yeah) My ex would've fucked with me bad, uh, uh

In this verse, Jazz dives deeper into his identity and how he perceives himself. He confidently claims he’s a phenom, which shows his self-belief. He contrasts himself with others who want power but don’t have it. There’s a personal touch when he mentions his mom and their struggles, making his success feel even more meaningful. He reflects on his past, hinting that he might not have been the best student, but he’s found his strength in a different way, particularly in pursuing his dreams.

Chorus

But I gotta get to the bag (I gotta get to the bag) It's coming so fast I pray that it last (Pray that it last) We coming in first, you coming in last (You coming in last) I walk in the bank and I do my dance (I gotta, I gotta, I gotta)

The second chorus mirrors the first, reinforcing that same urgency and drive. This repetition is effective in keeping the listener engaged. It’s like a mantra for him, reminding himself of what he’s working toward. The dance imagery again adds a celebratory tone, showing he’s enjoying the process of achieving his goals.

Bridge

Please don't say you love me You don't mean it, lady slow your roll Life is just a drug but I seen plenty people lose control And I don't take nothin' for granted The money done make me romantic She say I'm gettin' too fancy I tell her take off her panties Isn't it funny how my life is riddled by bitches and money? They didn't hit me before I was popping But now when I jump they gon' listen like Sunny If she a Mariah she can call me honey Years in the makin' stop callin' me lucky If I show up then I'm fresher than Dougie Boy it's a wrap like a mummy

In the bridge, Jazz shifts gears a bit. He calls out fake love, warning someone not to claim feelings they don’t have. There’s a darker undertone here about how money can change people and relationships. He reflects on how life can be chaotic, comparing it to a drug. This part feels more introspective, as he acknowledges his rise to fame and how people's perceptions of him have changed. The references to Mariah and Dougie add a fun flair, showing he’s aware of his status in the game.

Chorus

But I gotta get to the bag (I gotta get to the bag) It's coming so fast I pray that it last (Pray that it last) We coming in first, you coming in last (You coming in last) I walk in the bank and I do my dance (I gotta, I gotta, I gotta)

The final chorus repeats the key themes, driving home the urgency and celebration of success one last time. The repetition adds a sense of closure, as if he’s cementing this mindset before wrapping up the track.
