About This Track

Denzel Curry and PlayThatBoiZay trade verses over production from FNZ and Ronny J on this track from ZUU. The song moves with aggressive momentum, Curry's delivery cutting through boasts about dominance and street credibility. The chorus locks into a repeating refrain about holding ground and making threats, imagery drawn from pop culture and physical confrontation stacked together without transition. Curry's verse draws on his environment, references to gunfire and violence woven through reflections on growing up in a place where survival instinct outweighs ambition. PlayThatBoiZay follows with his own account of street life, the two voices creating a back-and-forth that feels less like collaboration than parallel testimony. The production stays lean, letting the vocals sit forward in the mix.

"P.A.T." is a track by Denzel Curry, from the album ZUU, released 31st May 2019. It's filed under Hip-Hop/Rap. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 14 articles about Denzel Curry.

Lyrics

P.A.T.

[Intro]

I'm finna show you fuck niggas how Florida go H.A.M., nigga

Straight like that, fuck nigga

FnZ

Oh damn

Ronny J, please turn me up

[Chorus: Denzel Curry]

Contact, sit out, I’ma hold the fort

All black, sticks out like I'm Voldemort

Lights out, stomped out like Columbus Short

This ain't what you want, better teleport

Instant transmission, have your mans missing, plans thicken

While my bands thicken, have your clan stricken, hands itchin’

That's the trigger finger, uh, now your spirit linger, uh

Get my Stanley Steamer on, sniper with the beamer on

[Verse 1: Denzel Curry]

Cut your line like I'm Hercules, leave you in surgery

Beef is a wad of meat, bitch, this ain't Aqua Teen

Fuck a gun, I'ma go whip his ass

Fuck around, have you spinnin' like Taz

All you niggas quick to pick up a strap

Everlast make a nigga take naps

Used to go to sleep, I would hear the blocka, blocka

Think it's fireworks but I assume it's a chopper

Why they hit that man with the boom-shaka-laka?

If he got the scope with the zoom, shotta, shotta

I grew up in a city where most people have no goals

Just cold-blooded niggas in a place that never snow

We’ll rob you for your chain, probably pistol whip your ho

We carry hollow tips ’cause it reflects what's in my soul, damn

[Chorus: Denzel Curry]

Contact, sit out, I’ma hold the fort

All black, sticks out like I'm Voldemort

Lights out, stomped out like Columbus Short

This ain't what you want, better teleport

Instant transmission, have your mans missing, plans thicken

While my bands thicken, have your clan stricken, hands itchin'

That’s the trigger finger, uh, now your spirit linger, uh

Get my Stanley Steamer on, sniper with the beamer on

[Verse 2: PlayThatBoiZay]

Blood on my shoes, these ain't red bottoms, headshot 'em

Fly in the night with my bats, Gotham, feds watching

Bitch, I'm from Dade, I do no cappin', no lackin'

Once you get hit, don't know what happened, no flapping

Free Ted, nigga, fuck all my enemies

Fuck nigga run up, catchin' felonies

Get the racks, flip the pack, that's my specialty

Hundred round hit your block, I got seventy

Riot, riot, you don't want no violence

Silence, silence, tell that boy be quiet

Riot, riot, don't make me start a riot

Silence, silence, put that boy in silence

Riot, riot, don't make me start a riot

Silence, silence, put that boy in silence

[Outro]

Oh damn

Ronny J, please turn me up

Blackland, nigga, 66.-motherfuckin'-6
