Where Ross is from (Carol City, Florida), your hustle is directly proportional to the amount of paper stacks you attain.

Where A is one’s given hustle, and B is the amount of paper stacks.

A very similar idea was made popular by English explorer and early colonist John Smith, which he bit from the Bible.

If any would not work, neither should he eat.

Additionally, Ace Hood mentioned this idea in “Hustle Hard”

Ross pleads for God to hear him out.

Additionally, “Father” might also mean Rick Ross’s father, who died of liver cancer in 1999."

Passed in ‘99 cancer all in his liver
Shit different since we last spoke; his son’s a lil richer
I’d never rap again if I could tell him that I miss him

If so, the Holy Ghost would be conduit linking Ross to his dead father.

Ross, being the yayo-pushing kingpin he is, has his phone tapped.

Apparently, his car’s OnStar is also tapped.

He also sarcastically plays on “followed,” continuing the Twitter allusion in the line above.

This line bears an eery similarity to one Diddy had on Biggie’s “Notorious Thugz”

We forgive you, for you know not what you do.

In both instances, he biting a phrase that Jesus said on the cross.

Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.

Rozay runs the streets like a pair of Jordans (shoe pun). He wears the much-anticipated retro Air Jordan 11’s that were released. The pair sported some iconic patent leather styling.

Ross also refers to reports that riots broke out over the scarce shoes

Jay wields a mic and a pen (sword). It’s probably a play on the popular adage.

Jay compares himself to Zeus (god of the thunder and sky), who conquered the Titans in Greek mythology, hence the sword-wielding.

Also, see Jay’s song “Voodoo Man” for more of his elemental wizardry.

Jay’s mom advises him to follow her words to avoid Satan’s trap.

The Devil can’t get to Jay’s mom, so he attempts to ensnare Jay, instead.

“Seed” = 5%er slang for children.

Note: this line has a parallel in the 12th chapter of Revelation. Jay’s mom = pregnant woman, and Jay = the unborn/infant child.

Revelation 1-2:

Verse 1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
Verse 2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

Revelation 4-5:

Verse 4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
Verse 5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.
