Priorities Lyrics – YoungBoy Never Broke Again

Priorities Lyrics Meaning

[Chorus]
He’s telling his friend that he’s focused on chasing women and stacking money, wanting it all laid out in front of him like it’s part of a grand plan. He’s just chilling for now, watching old Lakers games, but that’s just a short pause because he knows he has serious goals to handle. He’s not trying to do any favors for anyone, showing that he’s putting himself first. He spoils a girl with designer clothes but still sees her as part of his setup, not his main focus.

[Post-Chorus]
He casually greets someone but quickly shifts into bragging about how successful he’s been. He’s been dominating in his own lane and doesn’t feel bad about it at all. A girl keeps reaching out, clearly interested, but he’s not too caught up in her attention.

[Verse 1]
He’s surrounded by people from his circle, like Lil Malcolm and Big Henry, and even hanging out with a celebrity and drinking. There’s a lot of noise and energy around him—like drama and tension—but he’s sitting at the top of it all, like a boss. They’re traveling in private jets, flexing their wealth. He’s loaded with jewelry, showing off how far he’s come, but also hinting that he’s still dealing with things from his past. He’s got a violent edge, talking about being ready for action if needed. Even though no one handed him anything, he managed to make it work and pull himself up. He’s high and under the influence, living fast and recklessly. He’s bought luxury things like a mansion, and even though he’s made it big, he still makes time for simple fun like bowling with kids. He parties with women and sticks close to his brother. He shows pride in where he comes from—repping his roots from the North and even tying his success to his family, especially his mom.

[Chorus]
Again, he reminds his friend that his focus is on women and getting rich, and he wants everything laid out and under control. He’s taking a moment to relax, watching TV, but that doesn’t mean he’s slacking. He has real goals and won’t let anyone distract him. He’s not doing favors, showing he’s serious about protecting his priorities. Even though he buys luxury gifts for women, he doesn’t let that shift his focus.

[Post-Chorus]
He repeats how he’s been winning and outshining others without any guilt. He’s proud of how far he’s come, and he knows a girl keeps trying to get close to him, but he’s not all that moved by it.

[Verse 2]
He’s showing off his confidence again, saying that no one can compete with him. A girl’s being intimate with him, and he jokes about loving her in the moment. She wants to introduce him to her family, but he knows they wouldn’t approve of him because of his rough attitude and background. He leaves early to go somewhere more high-end, and she seems impressed. She likes his bold style and dark, mysterious energy—he compares it to wild, chaotic figures like Charles Manson and Marilyn Manson. He’s come from the bottom, and he’s still rolling with people who are rough like him. If anyone tests him, he’s ready to strike. The girl he’s with is into dangerous behavior too, wanting s*x while high, and he’s down for that. He’s aggressive, ready to fight or shoot if needed. He’s holding money and ammo, showing he’s fully prepared for anything. He doesn’t care about the consequences and is willing to go to war if someone crosses him. The girl he’s with is loyal, calling him her man, and he feels a real connection with her. Even with his tough front, his feelings for her are real, and that honesty makes their bond stronger. If her enemies come for her, he’s ready to go full force like a war mission.

[Chorus]
He repeats once more that he’s focused on getting women and money, not letting anyone distract him. While he takes a moment to watch some TV and relax, it’s just a quick pause in between handling bigger things. He won’t help anyone unless it benefits his own path. He’s generous with gifts but keeps his priorities straight, putting success and focus above all else.

[Post-Chorus]
Once again, he’s confidently talking about his success and how he’s beating everyone in his own game. He doesn’t care who doesn’t like it. The same girl keeps trying to get close, but he’s not really letting her in fully.
