About This Track

Pusha T and Juicy J trade verses over a track built on threat and transaction. The song moves between Juicy J's opening warning, delivered with the cadence of someone used to being obeyed, and Pusha T's inventory of wealth and firepower, each line stacked with specificity: rose gold Rolex, Daytona watch, kilograms, Peter Pans. The chorus hammers home its central conceit with blunt repetition, the phrase "body work" doing double duty as both violence and the aftermath it leaves. What distinguishes the track is its refusal of abstraction. Where trap music often trades in metaphor, 'Body Work' stays concrete and transactional, treating consequences as a straightforward cost of doing business. Pusha Tll hit you with that body work," collapses the distance between threat and execution into a single declarative sentence. The song is brutal in its clarity.

"Body Work" is a track by Pusha T, from the album Fear of God II: Let Us Pray, released 8th November 2011. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Body Work

[Verse 1: Juicy J]

Mhmm

I got some killers so don't push me, Juicy J be on some mob shit

Waiting by your doorstep, hidin' in the bushes (Mhmm)

If it comes down to it, ain't no thang but to do it

Got a vest on, got a gun that can really do it (Mhmm)

You niggas playin' with real niggas' money, get fronted

One day you is the plug, next day you in the dumpster

Couldn’t keep it one hunnid, you thirty-two percent (Mhmm)

The police got you on a leash, nigga, you a bitch

[Chorus: Juicy J]

Give yo' ass that body work, nigga, we sprayin' (Sprayin')

Ridin' with three K's and I ain't talkin' 'bout the Klan (No Klan)

This ain't no arcade, nigga, so quit playin' (Quit playin')

It’s eatin' time, me and my niggas buffetin'

Give yo' ass that body work, nigga, we sprayin' (We sprayin')

Ridin' with three K's and I ain't talkin' 'bout the Klan (Ain't no Klan)

This ain't no arcade, nigga, so quit playin' (Playin', nigga)

It’s eatin' time, me and my niggas buffetin' (We winnin')

[Verse 2: Pusha T]

You don’t know 'bout this life, nigga

Earnin' all of these stripes, nigga

Kilograms, Peter Pans, pack holders on bikes, nigga

Throwin' bitches on flights, nigga

They ain't know that they dyke, nigga

'Til the money’s out and the bottle's pourin'

They’re in the midst of they life, nigga

Rose gold on my wrist, this Rolex like Devil's piss

This Daytona illuminate, y'all think I'm talkin' that Devil shit

This fifty racks, no bezel shit

Like blood diamonds, it's rebel shit

This mo' guns, this mo' bodies

We call shots, they nobodies

They fuck niggas, they owe prolly

Who fuckin' with me? Nobody

When the guns drawn, they so sorry

Sprayin' niggas, now the Lord got 'em, rrrah!

Bullets out the barrel make your body jerk

Fuck with my money and I'll hit you with that body work

[Chorus: Juicy J]

Give yo' ass that body work, nigga, we sprayin' (Sprayin')

Ridin' with three K's and I ain't talkin' 'bout the Klan (No Klan)

This ain't no arcade, nigga, so quit playin' (Quit playin')

It’s eatin' time, me and my niggas buffetin'

Give yo' ass that body work, nigga, we sprayin' (We sprayin')

Ridin' with three K's and I ain't talkin' 'bout the Klan (Ain't no Klan)

This ain't no arcade, nigga, so quit playin' (Playin', nigga)

It’s eatin' time, me and my niggas buffetin' (We winnin')

[Verse 3: Meek Mill]

Bad bitches on deck, nigga

Money, power, respect, nigga

Cop, cook, collect, nigga

You was never no threat, nigga

Everybody be rap dissin'

I catch niggas, I check niggas

These goons with me don't spit no verses

Just limo service, they stretch niggas

Black 'maro 2 S, nigga

Couple birds on my neck, nigga

Every time them hoes see me

They like, "Meek Milly, you a mess, nigga"

Two gats, no vest, nigga

Strapped up like I'm a cowboy

Stand tall like that Yao boy

I got a bad bitch and she 5'4"

This gold Rollie that's on my wrist

Leprechaun prolly die for

Young boys that's on my strip

Will kill anything I say ride on, bow!

T-tell them niggas call us if they out of work

'Cause we liftin' weights but we don't do no body work

[Chorus: Juicy J]

Give yo' ass that body work, nigga, we sprayin' (Sprayin')

Ridin' with three K's and I ain't talkin' 'bout the Klan (No Klan)

This ain't no arcade, nigga, so quit playin' (Quit playin')

It’s eatin' time, me and my niggas buffetin'

Give yo' ass that body work, nigga, we sprayin' (We sprayin')

Ridin' with three K's and I ain't talkin' 'bout the Klan (Ain't no Klan)

This ain't no arcade, nigga, so quit playin' (Playin', nigga)

It’s eatin' time, me and my niggas buffetin' (We winnin')

[Verse 4: French Montana]

Ay, ay, ay, ay

Shout my lawyer all the crazy shit I ever did

Know we love that KK sound, you know we not backin' down

Hunnid drum like, "Hold that doe", diamonds flash like Kodak though

Straight cash, nigga, fuck that loan, seven digits on that phone

Money so long, smoke a whole zone

Getting blood money, tryna put my cuz on

Bitch, I'm on fire, got my jaw wired

Sex, money, murder, Petey Rollack (Soundview, whaddup)

Body work, chopper work like a techno song

Twenty thou' a show, I just hope my nigga Max come home (wavey)

Money fast, diamonds flash like high beams

Make it rain in this bitch, Hurricane Irene

[Chorus: Juicy J]

Give yo' ass that body work, nigga, we sprayin' (Sprayin')

Ridin' with three K's and I ain't talkin' 'bout the Klan (No Klan)

This ain't no arcade, nigga, so quit playin' (Quit playin')

It’s eatin' time, me and my niggas buffetin'

Give yo' ass that body work, nigga, we sprayin' (We sprayin')

Ridin' with three K's and I ain't talkin' 'bout the Klan (Ain't no Klan)

This ain't no arcade, nigga, so quit playin' (Playin', nigga)

It’s eatin' time, me and my niggas buffetin' (We winnin')
