Very reminiscent of Wayne’s verse on We Takin' Over:

I am the beast, feed me rappers or feed me beats I’m untamed, I need a leash

For (formerly) up and coming rappers like Mac, the “bar” for true success is set pretty high. While Mac is above this figurative bar, he’s also higher than the bar he’s buying liquor from. Not to mention, he was only 18-19 years-old when this was recorded, so even though he’s not old enough to drink, he’s above that, popping bottles with Wiz in the V.I.P. and at privates parties and shows.

Three pints of cough syrup and lots of cash. Also a reference to Foxy Brown’s verse in Affirmative Action where she says

Get sixteen double it times three
We got fourty-eight which mean a whole lot of cream

That could be a term for it, but Ab-Soul isn’t your typical “stunt in car kinda person” I don’t think.
If you’ve ever had a really potent codeine/promethazine trip
it’s kinda split into 2 parts. The beginning when you’re pretty social, very buzzed, and is pretty euphoric. The second part is when you’re “coming down” and the high becomes more of a psychological one with daydreams, and you’re getting tired, but you’re still very happy.

While other artists are hating on Wiz and it has been argued that he doesn’t lash back, it’s because those other artists are nothing to him and they’re unpopular thus not worth his time.

The day is long past
When I left my home
There is no hope in my heart
There is only death

Translation:

The end of the long journey
I am sad, sorrowful, broken
After me there will be no more (of my kind)
But children, it is our destiny

Translation:

Night and I am alone
Endless deep black skies
Remembering days that were
Without want and without gloom
I listen to the wind
Endless great loneliness forever
