![]() Indeed the chorus is sort of a giant double entendre. When X exclaims “we gonna rock” and “we gonna roll”, of course on the surface those reads like musical suggestions.īut it can also be in relation to him and his homeys wildin’ out if the situation calls for it. And the same goes for ‘letting it pop’ and ‘letting it go’, with the term pop being an established slang term for shooting someone.īut to a more naïve listener, for all they know DMX is talking about the excitability of his music. And like for the phrase “X gon’ give it to ya”. Within the context of the first verse for instance, that saying would be interpreted as him bringing it to an opp.īut it can also allude to the adrenaline rush some people will experience by listening to songs like this. Indeed if you were to hear this track in a club, there’s likely going to be a lot of moshing, shall we say, as opposed to more-organized dancing. ![]() Meanwhile the third verse is like DMX’s version of an inspirational rap. In this case he is showing “love” to his homeys, who likewise tend to “give it back”. He also seemingly encourages dudes in the audience in general to not “give up” especially, it appears, in the pursuit of money.īut the rapper further clarifies that such encouragement “ ain’t even about the dough”. Instead it is about staying true and persistent to whatever it is you may “ stand for”. So conclusively, we can look at this song as so. The “you” in the title can be you the listener, or it can be one of DMX’s enemies.
