    "I live by the sword and I die by the sword", Wayne talks about how the black Americans are treated badly. Wayne is a real poet. I really love the song since 2015.

      @Nonya Biz those were some great years. He had such a relaxed flow that really worked. I was a huge fan of some of his projects afterward though. For example Carter 3, Sorry 4 Tha Wait, the rest of his Dedication series, I even liked Carter 5 a lot. I admit that its a different style than his old shit but theres still gems there

    Wayne explained the song's meaning in a Facebook post. "In most people eyes including my own who were raised in that environment, the Hood is the only America they know and the only America I knew growing up," he said. "I was fortunate from my God giving talents to escape the Hood and see the other beautiful places this country has to offer but most people who are born in that environment don't get that chance. That's their view of their America. That was Dwayne M Carter from Hollygrove, New Orleans view of America. That's who I'm speaking for in this song."

      Kevin Cummings Wayne responded to the controversy by stating that he didn't step on the flag on purpose. "It's a scene in a video where the flag drops behind me," he explained "and after it drops it's just there as I perform."

I just wish I could see him one more time to tell him I love him and miss him. Pls don’t take the ones that are close to you for granted.

      TheMovement85 I don'tthink lil wayne really has a ghost writer. His flow stayed the same for the last almost 20 years. Besides the whole early 2000s swithc to now but that was because that rapping style stopped being popular. And he has released 10 albums and like 25 mixtapes. A person with a ghost writer wouldn't go through that many songs

      J Wop and Almighty stupid need to stop arguing about some bullshit and rejoice, for this ain't no important topic to be babbling about. And if this is Satan's world, why ain't he doin' shit either to make things right? If anything he is just making things worse 'cause he is the bad guy according to the bible, so that makes more sense to those who believe in this religion. You ain't making no fucking sense. More sense would be if you said something like only us will make our own change, because we are the owners of our destiny...
