My point was just because you can get the lyrics from anywhere doesn't mean that EVERYONE can understand and decipher them. As a 58 year old music writer and a proponent of hip hop and rap music, I can attest that this young man broke down, deciphered, caught the double and triple entendres and meaning of this song BETTER than EVERYONE that reacted to it. I know because I watched them all. I respect this man for his knowledge and love for the culture. For you to type such a sarcastic dumbass comment is why you where met with my sarcastic comment.

They realized there was heat cops were on to them so they got together to decide to do a last big score a bank job or just seperate with what loot they already had. So basically they decide fuck it lets go all out and rob the bank in broad Daylight even though we got all the heat on us 💸🚔🚁.

      That is lnt just talking about Golf, it also talks about guns, and Badminton as well, an Eagle being a golf term, Gun, and Badminton racket. Birdy being a term in golf, a term for shooting clay pidgins and is the Shuttercock hit by the Eagle racket in Badminton.

Being as old as I am and know 98% of all that's said and references you still catch some that I missed even on the 3rd time listening. I also don't stop the beat I just re-listen to it as it plays.
