Dismantled Lyrics – Ken Carson

Dismantled Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
Just setting the mood, hyping things up.

[Chorus]
He’s showing off his wealth right away, saying he has so much cash it literally can’t fit in his pants. He’s rocking a diamond-studded belt, flexing both money and style. Even though he’s not originally from a certain well-known part of Atlanta, he’s still got a girl from that area, showing he’s connected. When it comes to cars, he’s got choices—he can pull up in a Ghost or a Phantom, both luxury rides. He doesn’t mess with broke people and even scammed someone, showing he plays dirty if needed. Everything he does is either for his loyal fans or his family, who he really rides for. If a girl ignores him, he’s not chasing—he moves on fast. He keeps things private, never snitches, and doesn’t break under pressure. At the end, he talks about hooking up in a hotel in a pretty raw way, saying he’s totally in control.

[Verse]
He starts off by making it clear he’s untouchable—nobody can cancel him or mess with his status. He’s confident in his position and what he’s built. Then he casually drops that he saw Lil Wayne at a high-end fashion show, flexing how far he’s come from his earlier days. Back then, he might’ve been riding in a basic truck, but now he’s in elite circles. Before he gets serious with a girl, he wants to know who she’s been with—it’s like a filter check to avoid drama. He’s not into random flings anymore; he’s focused on making real money and buying a secure, gated home. His lifestyle is fast-paced and intense, like driving a supercharged car with no brakes. He avoids women who might twist the truth and stays solid, not backing down for anyone. He even throws a shot at someone who might have beef with him, saying it could be because he hooked up with their girl. Then he praises his own girl, calling her almost divine—she’s rare and special, the only person who really proves something real to him.

Next, he calls someone out for being sneaky, pretending to be chill but actually playing by all the usual, basic rules. They act like someone important online, but he sees through it. The rumors about them? He knows they’re facts. Emotionally, he’s numb—says he lost his heart during a psychedelic trip. Even though he might give someone gifts and flowers, he’s still entertaining other women. He sent one home in an Uber while sending another a Lyft—basically juggling girls casually. He admits he knew one of them way before the current one, showing he’s not that emotionally invested. Still, he doesn’t let the drama slow him down because, at the end of the day, money is the priority. Then he throws in a warning: don’t turn against the people who helped you rise. If you do, things can get messy—and he’s not the one to play with when it comes to that.

[Chorus]
He circles back to talking about how much money he’s got—too much to carry comfortably. His belt, iced out in diamonds, is part of the whole image of success. Even if he’s not from the most well-known area in Atlanta, he still has roots and a girl from there, so he’s got the street cred. He rides in luxury cars and makes it clear that broke people aren’t welcome around him. He even says he’s pulled off scams to get where he is, showing he’s done whatever it takes. Everything he’s doing is still about the fans and his family—those are his real motivations. When a girl doesn’t answer his call, he doesn’t keep calling—he respects himself enough to move on. He doesn’t spill secrets, keeps things solid, and stays in control of every situation. Then again, he ends on a wild note, saying he’s running things when they hit the hotel.
