Need It (feat. YoungBoy Never Broke Again)

Migos' song 'Need It,' featuring YoungBoy Never Broke Again, is a raw portrayal of the street life and the relentless pursuit of success amidst adversity. The lyrics are laced with references to violence, drug dealing, and the lavish lifestyle that comes with their success in the rap game. The song's hook, 'I said I need it, this Draco undefeated,' suggests a reliance on firearms for protection and dominance in the streets, with the Draco being a popular type of semi-automatic firearm known for its use in urban American street culture.

The verses detail the artists' experiences and attitudes towards life in the streets, from dealing drugs to evading law enforcement. The line 'My wrist look like a snow cone, make her eat it' uses vivid imagery to describe expensive, ice-covered jewelry, which is a status symbol in hip-hop culture. The song also touches on themes of loyalty and the harsh realities of their environment, where violence is often a necessary evil ('We shoot a fifty-round drum, honey bun').

Despite the braggadocious tone and the glorification of wealth and power, 'Need It' also subtly acknowledges the dangers and the constant vigilance required to survive ('There go them people, you know what it is, Go put the dope up 'fore they breach us'). The song is a testament to the artists' resilience and their determination to maintain their status 'forever I'm livin' my life like a bleeder,' indicating a life spent in perpetual struggle and combat.
