We got the birds like 2-4-7
from Pro Era (Ft. Capital STEEZ, CJ Fly & Joey BADA$$) – Like Water Lyrics on Rap Genius
247 is police code for maliciously firing at an aircraft, and a “bird” is a 36 ounce brick of cocaine
In this case, using the word “bird” most likely isn’t referring to cocaine, as Capital Steez and the whole Pro Era crew are against all of that type of drug pushing.
But in an older song by Capital Steez, “Vibe Ratings”, he refers to a woman as a “bird”.
As further support, the word “bird” closely resembles the word “chickenhead”, which is used to describe certain- ahem– promiscuous women.
