Byrd StayLow – “When You Broke (WYB) feat. Millyz”
Jun
Byrd StayLow and Millyz emphasize how money truly earns someone respect in their single, “When You Broke (WYB).”
Over the upbeat trap production, which takes subtle inspiration from Drake’s “10 Bands,” the rapper vows to get the bag at all costs. Byrd’s love for moolah runs so deep that he’s willing to work hard for it.
“Said I got a love for the hustle I ain’t tryna pretend/Said I been broke I ain’t going back again/Said my mind on my dough.”
As the song continues, the rapper highlights his hustle methods. Iterating that people who make less are frowned upon, Byrd StayLow puts a massive effort into becoming well-established.
“I cop some work, and summersault boy that’s just a little flip/Said they don’t love you when you broke, not even a little bit,” he raps. “We then got that work out/Guess I’m a little fit.”
In the rest of his verse, Byrd StayLow talks to the opps, suggesting they mind the business that pays them.
“We know what it is/Tryna find out what’s it to you/Tell them n*ggas that we got it, and we bring it to you,” he spits.
He closes out by dropping a line of warning bars toward those who challenge him.
“Boy I’m from the L/Some of my n*ggas turned to shootas/They leave holes in ya head well (whale) now you a beluga.”
Given the context, listeners will agree that Byrd StayLow crafted up some clever punchlines.
