The Bottom 3 Lyrics Meaning

[Chorus]
In this chorus, the artist reflects on the constant pressure of their lifestyle. The “waves keep crashing” symbolizes ongoing challenges, while “the opps stay yapping” points to the constant threat from enemies. Despite the success (“mainstream trapping”) and wealth, they feel numb and disconnected from the money, with their heart “frozen.” Despite trying to move away from violence (“tried to put the gun away”), it’s a hard cycle to break, and they continue to fight through the pain, representing their roots in “the Bottom.”

[Verse 1]
In this verse, SquidWock compares their dangerous lifestyle to a crash, like the stock market. “Shark tank” refers to an aggressive environment, while “grab his Cuban and Mark it” refers to claiming someone else’s jewelry as a sign of dominance. SquidWock expresses confidence in never missing a target, pointing to a ruthless mindset. He touches on the gap between the wealthy and the poor, noting how little has changed despite their success. The verse also hints at seeking revenge and staying true to their violent ways, unaffected by outside influence.

[Bridge]
In this bridge, the artists acknowledge that they are still thriving despite the challenges they face. “Popping pills” and “making mills” show their rise to wealth, but they also express that time hasn’t healed their emotional scars. The drive to succeed and escape their past is emphasized—reminding themselves that they have to make it out of their difficult circumstances, no matter what.

[Verse 2]
In this verse, Mr. Swags talks about how dependent he is on his crew, symbolized by “put that on the chain.” He speaks about being quick and efficient in his actions (“spin ’em like ballet, tapping brains”), while showcasing his wealth and success with flashy diamonds. He reminds others to stay focused and “pick your mans up,” meaning to stay loyal and strong in a world where loyalty is everything, and they have to crash through any obstacles in their way.

[Chorus]
This chorus repeats the themes of ongoing struggle and conflict. The line “waves keep crashing” emphasizes that the challenges never stop, and the constant “yapping” of enemies is part of the reality. The wealth they’ve gained hasn’t brought peace, with their heart “frozen” and no emotions to show. Despite the hardship, they keep moving forward, shining through the pain, rooted in their “Bottom” origins, which they continue to represent despite the success and fame.

[Verse 3]
Sandy Thee Squirrel’s verse is a bold declaration of confidence. They claim to be unbothered by anyone and ready to take on anyone who opposes them. Smoking a blunt and being “hot as Texas” shows that they’re on top of their game. They’re willing to do anything to protect their reputation and succeed, with “choppa make him lift” referring to their weaponry and aggressive approach. The verse shows a no-nonsense attitude, with Sandy letting others know that they don’t stand a chance, and their success isn’t just a game—it’s real and dangerous.

[Pre-Chorus]
This pre-chorus reflects on the group’s journey to the top. They are confident in their ability to take others’ success (“took his flow right there”) and transform it into their own. Even though they’ve reached the top, they don’t forget their roots—the “Bottom” where they came from. It’s a reminder of their struggle and the need to stay grounded despite newfound success.

[Chorus]
This final chorus echoes the same struggles and contradictions. The crashing waves and constant presence of enemies show that the fight never ends. They reflect on their wealth but acknowledge that it doesn’t bring true happiness—highlighting the coldness they feel inside. The persistence of violence and the difficulty of leaving it behind is noted once again, as they continue to shine through the pain, forever tied to their origins in “the Bottom.”
