About

On this track, Dreamville Records signees Ari Lennox and J.I.D reflect on how their love lives were when they were “Broke” and didn’t have the wealth that they do now. Ari provides an early verse and vocals throughout but allots J.I.D an extensive verse at the heart of the song.

Broke Lyrics

[Intro: Ari Lennox]
Ayy, ayy, ayy, woo, uh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 1: Ari Lennox]
Keep thing, cheap thing, cheap thing
Cute thing, fine thing, pinky rang, back then
Lookin' real good, you know I been
You’re too young, that's fine, we been vibin'
Cruisin’, ridin' through Raleigh
Take a trip on AmTrak 'cause we ain't got no monies

[Chorus: Ari Lennox]
I've been low before
Yeah, you know I've been low before (Woo)
I'll bring cups, you bring the smoke
It's a dove right in your look
Yes, I’ve been low before (Woo)
Yeah, you know I’ve been low before
I'll bring cups, you bring the smoke
It’s a dove right in your look

[Post-Chorus: Ari Lennox]
Woke thing, broke thing, it's a written thing
Brown skin, it's a bitten thing, chitty bang
When I'm hangin’ with my bullet, I call your name
Baby, I need you here
Baby, I need you here

[Chorus: Ari Lennox]
I've been low before
Yeah, you know I've been low before (Woo)
I'll bring cups, you bring the smoke
It's a dove right in your look
Yes, I've been low before (Woo)
Yeah, you know I've been low before
I'll bring cups, you bring the smoke
It's a dove right in your look

[Verse 2: J.I.D]
I don't know how many times I said it
Broke boy, baby, ain't got no bread
They ain't got no cheese
I've been tryna fertilize your eggs
Moisturize your head, supervise the kids
Baby, won't you tell me what's important to you
It ain't really all about money to me
Chillin' if you tryna find somethin' to do
Sittin' there lookin' like you somethin' to eat
I've been broke and you been broke, your heart been broke
And I'm still broke and breakin' down weed
I been hopin', you've been hopeless, help me, please
Heaven, notice me, I'm out of focus
Somebody show me the rope-a-dope
So I can dodge the demons tryna choke my throat
Her last man was litty, he had loads of dough
He was taller, older, I'm like Amendola height
Trips left, open right, call me over on a motion, I'm on your side
They ain't trippin', I'm finna triple up and mobilize
Survive, remote, remorse, I grabbed the wheel and rode to death
I ride to die, I'm making life and taking life
I fuck a chick, I killed a guy
I spilled the beans and threw the rice
A knight in shining armor, fight and give me the knife and slice

[Pre-Chorus: J.I.D]
It's for my boo thing, my new thing, new flame, butane
Nipple ring, coochie ring, lick 'em both, do my thing
Pickle soaked, down your throat, holy water, take a gulp
Let me drive the boat
Nah, woah, yeah, row

[Chorus: Ari Lennox]
I've been low before (Ayy)
Yeah, you know I've been low before (Hey)
I'll bring cups, you bring the smoke (Ayy)
It's a dove right in your look
Yes, I've been low before
Yeah, you know I've been low before
I'll bring cups, you bring the smoke
It's a dove right in your look (Yeah)

[Post-Chorus: Ari Lennox]
Woke thing, broke thing, it's a written thing
Brown skin, it's a bitten thing, chitty bang (Hey)
When I'm hangin' with my bullet, I call your name
Baby, I need you here
Baby, I need you here (I've been low before)

[Outro: Ari Lennox]
It's alright
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright (It's)
It's alright, it's
