This song was made all in one sitting: the beat, lyrics, and vocals were created in about two to three hours in JR’s basement. The song is an honest perspective on life at the moment, but with an ambitious spin not seen on tracks like Glass House III.
In the chorus he talks about needing a watch.
...
[Chorus]
2 O-Clock they be sending shots, I might let 'em go
If you not ready to get blocked, shouldn't send 'em though
Need a watch pretty in the face like a centerfold
Just to rock when I'm at the top like I told you so
2 O-Clock they be sending shots, I might let 'em go
If you not ready to get blocked, shouldn't send 'em though
Need a watch pretty in the face like a centerfold
Just to rock when I'm at the top like I told you so
[Verse 1]
Yuh!
This that real rap, brought that feel back
No prescription but they feel that
Middle finger up, and still snap
I just killed that, yuh
I need bands on me like tour bus
I'mma let whatever pour up
Sip it if it isn't syrup, on a mission, yuh
See I'm always facing something
Either fears or I'm just blunted
Think it's one thing or the other for me
Shit don't mix
That's no dark shit, that's just real
Know exactly how I feel
And I showed up here to chill, for a little bit
[Bridge]
Yeah, for a little bit
Spent a whole summer, make a million hits
Used to keep my music low-key
When I drop might throw a whole parade in the streets, ay
[Chorus]
2 O-Clock they be sending shots, I might let 'em go
If you not ready to get blocked, shouldn't send 'em though
Need a watch pretty in the face like a centerfold
Just to rock when I'm at the top like I told you so
2 O-Clock they be sending shots, I might let 'em go
If you not ready to get blocked, shouldn't send 'em though
Need a watch pretty in the face like a centerfold
Just to rock when I'm at the top like I told you so
