Cover art for Back Up Plan lyrics by Big Boi

My short interpretation of the song: Everybody needs "love". If we stop trying to play games/trick each other - and commit ourselves to doing the right thing - we will all receive the "love" we need.

  • Momma fell heel over head, then said you was the one (one, one)

  • My nigga, what was I to do...?

  • Go find somebody else(!).

  • I was young, full of cum, down for the "skeet skeet" - not dumb.

  • We would meet up the skreet# (street), be discrete.

  • I was hooked on that# box like the hot Krispy Kremes#

  • Well, it didn't take long for me to game peep#

  • It was week after week, I was seeking# the same freak

  • I'd be damned if we'd be# posing for pictures and throwing rice

  • Baby# throwing up in Vegas while Daddy's on the dice

  • I might (might) just put you on the chopping block tonight (night)

  • Act right;# you can get my second string spotlight.

  • Yeah, got the latex gloves# for the fit.

  • 'Cause# she trying to +trick Daddy+, Slip-N-Slide on his# dick!

  • You are not The One#, you are not The One#.

(The Matrix.)

  • You can be my "too"#, you can be my "number" too#.

( http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/number

  1. (Informal) person; individual: "the attractive number standing at the bar."

Or, it might mean that although she's not Neo - so to speak - he'd definitely like to... share an experience with her, and would be grateful for their meeting.)

  • And one and one, everybody have fun.

(I take the "And 1, and 2" to be basketball metaphors. Call foul when you should, but have fun. If it's a serious foul, you get two shots - "a fair solution to whatever issue", in other words.)

(The phrase being scratched sounds like "Boo, you ain't the first or the last")
