In this song, 50 Cent admonishes his listener to bear his child in order to achieve great wealth. Presumably, the connection between becoming a mother and vast riches is due to the possibility of filing for child support against 50 Cent whilst maintaining custody of said child, thereby gaining access to (for example) 17% of 50 Cent's gross income. The implicatoin is that this income stream will be sufficient to achieve a net worth of at least $1 million. Ne-Yo then advises the listener that, generally speaking, he does not engage in frivolous activity, and that when he is in "that thang", presumably referring to a female's genitalia, he will be able to "have [that female] gone". This is a clever play on words, substituting "gone" for "come", thereby highlighting the ordinary grammatical meaning of "to come" and also the meaning "to achieve an orgasm". 50 Cent proceeds to explain that, when engaging in preludes to physical intimacy, he begins with a woman's nape, but proceeds downward. He then claims to be able to behave similar to an adult entertainment actor. Later on, he makes use of a simile between his own actions of a sexual nature and that of professional racing vehicles. Other items of note are a comparison between the emotionally intoxicating nature of 50 Cent's affections versus that of a French brand of cognac, and a plea to the listener of the song to supply 50 Cent with seed of some sort, perhaps in an incongruous reversal of 50 Cent's assumed role as seed-giver. |
