These first few lines, are an interpolation of Jay-Z’s lyrics from The Watcher 2. Which poses a very strong sense of irony…purposefully?

This is a reference to the start of Dr. Dre’s opening song to 2001, The Watcher.

March 8th, 2013

An allusion to a line in Dr. Dre’s song “The Watcher” on his album 2001.

Things just ain’t the same for gangstas

Vultures are scavengers and prey on the dead even sometimes killing a still alive animal.

Some REALLY NICE WORDPLAY . His name is CyHi the PRYNCE, so he named his first two Mixtapes Royal Flush, and here he talks about gambling in life and he thinks everything is poker, and when you play poker you must take the Jokers out of the deck, therefore he “can’t play with you jokers”

He’s embracing his feelings as he falls for this woman

The words to the hook/chorus are reversed because she makes his heart flutter so that he can’t even speak clearly <3 BEAUTIFUL MUSIC ISNT IT?

In most fairytales the story ends with “…and they lived happily ever after”, so he’s insinuating that the way he’ll love her will make her so happy she’ll feel as if it has to be a figment of her imagination

Again insisting that she smile, because she’s so beautiful, she shuts it down like the song of the same name by Drake featuring the Dream

Insisting that them together, could be nothing but positive so she smile and allow him to be her “rainbow” and bring her joy

It’s becoming clear to him, that he is falling for this woman. “Love at first sight”

"Uh, one-two one-two guess who back again" (The Dream – Higher) | accepted

Also, 1-2-1-2 is a normal mic check but it’s also the area code for most of manhattan, which ties in with the next line … nice lil bit of wordplay .

"Rich ass nigga, I got all my masters" (Lil Wayne – President) | accepted

No he’s talking about the Masters of his tracks. In the music industry the profit off of songs goes to whoever holds the masters to the songs, he’s saying he’s a rich ass nigga he owns all of his masters.

"Young tender from the NYC" (Azealia Banks – 1991) | pending

Ooh gesh, didn’t realize Harlem slang was so non-known lol. A tender is a young pretty female, “Young tender from the NYC” = “Young fly bitch from the NYC” = “Young cutie from the NYC” .

"Yeah, I'm talking bossy, I ain't talking Kelis" (Kanye West – Clique) | rejected

He said “Yeah I’m talking bossy” because he’s good friends with Rick Ross colloquially known as “The Boss” but, “I ain’t talking Kelis” showing that he’s not talking about Kelis who made a song called “Boosy” . Feel me ?

"She ain't write like them old Rap City skits" (Tyga – Rack City Remix) | pending

It doesn’t say he doesn’t write his verses. He said “She aint right like them old Rap City skits” . Saying the girl isn’t right in the head, she’s a freaky stripper or w.e, not “right”/“write” like something that’s off the cuff .

Also, “I killed the Hermes store, somebody save me” . Murder Was The Case was sampled on “D'evils” one of Jay’s song off his first album, reference to the chorus maybe?:

“Dear god, I wonder can you save me”

"Fraud niggas, y'all niggas, that's that shit I don't like" (Kanye West – I Don't Like) | rejected

In other words, he doesn’t like Lil Wayne shrugs

"Too many urkels on your team thats why your Winslow" (Kanye West – GOOD Music BET Cypher) | pending

Also, the previous line speaks of fresh air, so when he says Winslow, it’s interpreted as Winds low, meaning they choke up.

"And on the phone it's just "You gon hit me back right qui..." (Jay Electronica – @Fatbellybella) | pending

This line, is her talking to him like the two lines above. He’s saying “I love you baby”, and she’s listing the ways he doesnt act like it:
“You dont squeeze my feet, kiss my neck, rub my back, and everytime I call you say I’ll call you later…”

"[Verse 3: Stalley]" (Wale – Running Rebels) | pending

Nah, it’s Stalley. He’s an MMG signee, & very ill.
