About This Track

IShowSpeed's 'Shake' opens with a prominent interpolation of Ray Charles's 'Hit the Road Jack', the 1961 original's vocal hook looped and chopped before the track pivots into a frenetic, stream-of-consciousness verse. The production credits Project X, though detail on the beat's construction remains sparse. Released in 2022, the single runs just over two and a half minutes.

The lyrics adopt a scattershot delivery, IShowSpeed moving between boasts about crew affiliation and references to eighth-grade uncertainty. The writing favours momentum over narrative clarity, phrases stacking in rapid succession with minimal pause. The Ray Charles sample provides the track's most recognisable anchor, a nod to classic soul repurposed as intro and punctuation rather than sustained melodic foundation.

"Shake" is a track by IShowSpeed, released 23rd November 2021. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Shake

[Intro: IShowSpeed, The Raelettes & Ray Charles]

MC, make another hit

Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back (Project, Project X)

No more, no more, no more, no more (Hah, ayy, turn me up; Project, Project X)

Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back no more (Ayy, ayy, turn me up; Project, Project X)

What you say? (Turn me up, turn me up, turn me up)

Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back (Turn me up, turn me up, turn me up)

No more, no more, no more, no more (Hah)

Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back no more (Ayy, ah, ayy, ayy, ayy; Woah)

[Verse: IShowSpeed]

When I hop on this shit and I'm droppin' a six in the back and I rock my Vans

I get in my chill and I swear to God, admit it, I better not put that on friend

Niggas up with a chop, where the stick stay?

Niggas up with a chop on a mean man

Wanna chop, wanna stop, wanna speed?

Nigga, stop, wanna chop, wanna feel like a bee?

Back with a chop, niggas on scare t'day

Rich, I wanna feel like a belay

Rich, I wanna feel like a relay

Jump on that shit and I feel like a relay race, race

Niggas is puttin' up stakes, stakes

Niggas on crack, on the bay, bay

Bangin' the D's and I'm fuckin' the delay, chopper, let's play

Ride, ride, ride to the motherfuckin' Vertt, Vertt

Shout out to my nigga MCVertt, Vertt

Wanna chop on the top of the cop car

Niggas want chop and I feel like a wor-word

Ayy, wanna hop on a jersey?

Niggas on dick, so I gotta get sturdy

Niggas don't want, but I gotta get, buddy

I gotta get dizzy, I gotta get it started

I hop on the chop, runnin' up on the gang

Niggas on dick, man, I feel like the rain

Nigga, vibe with a chop, wanna feel like a name?

Wanna chop, wanna feel like a bang?

Bang, bang, bang, bang my speed, speed, speed

Makin' you see, see, see

Like, fuck do you mean, mean, mean?

Back in eighth grade, didn't know what to do

Niggas O.D., but I bump in the stu' (Ah)

But I'm on my step when I walk in the crew

Like, fuck it, you know, what the chop gonna do?

And I'm screamin' out, "Speed Gang," nah, nigga, Speed Gang

Wanna hop on this shit, want to chop with a feel, man, I'm feelin' like a rename (What? What?)

I feel like gorilla, my nigga, my trues are now really now fuller than niggas, I feel like a bed (Arf, arf, arf, arf, arf, arf, arf, arf)

Put in more cheese I'm not built like a bitter nigga, shoot better

Sure about who did you shoot, like, what? (Arf, arf, arf, arf, arf, arf, arf)

Like, what? Like, what? (Arf, arf, arf, arf)

I said now it's what? (Arf, arf, arf, arf, arf, arf)

Now what, now what, what, what, what? (Arf, arf, arf, arf, arf, arf)

[Bridge: Lauryn Hill]

Ready or not, here I come, you can't hide

Gon' find you and take it slowly (Here I come)

[Chorus: IShowSpeed]

Shake, shake, shake, shake-shake, shake, shake, shake, shake

Now bou-bou, bou-bou-bou, bou-bou-bou

Now bounce that ass, bounce that ass

Bou, bou-bou-bou

Bou-bounce that ass, bounce that ass, bounce that ass, bounce that ass

Now suck that cock, cock, cock, cock, cock, cock

Now suck that cock, cock, cock, cock, cock, cock

Now shake that ass (Arf, arf), shake that ass (Arf, arf)

Shake that ass (Arf, arf), shake that a-shake that ass (Arf, arf)

I said now shake, shake (Arf), shake, shake (Arf)

Shake, shake (Arf), shake, shake (Arf)

Shake that ass, shake that ass (Arf)

Shake that ass (Arf), shake that a-shake that ass (Arf)

Shake that ass

[Outro: IShowSpeed, The Raelettes, IShowSpeed & The Raelettes, Ray Charles]

We out this bitch, nigga

Buy that merch, link in description, nigga, fuck you mean?

Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back

No more, no more, no more, no more

Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back

No more (What you say?)

Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back

No more, no more, no more, no more

Hit the road, Jack, and don't you come back no more
