This is possibly my favorite line by Rick Ross, mostly due to its superb assonance but also to its gleefully menacing absurdity. Ross is frustrated by “middlemen” taking up an unnecessary position in his line of business and making money off of something he could do himself, so in keeping with the nautical theme of the song he compares himself to this guy
