The final repetition of the chorus emphasizes the central message of the song: the persistence of challenges and the need for resilience in overcoming them. The repetition of “They tryna clear the smoke” serves as a reminder of the ongoing nature of adversity and the importance of maintaining determination and unity in confronting it.

1. “They tryna clear the smoke”
This phrase, repeated throughout the song, symbolizes efforts to resolve conflicts or dispel confusion. “Smoke” represents problems, misunderstandings, or adversities that people attempt to clear away. The repetition emphasizes the persistent nature of these challenges and the continuous effort required to address them. It reflects a theme of resilience and determination in facing life’s difficulties.

2. “Having that bankroll right”
This line highlights financial success and stability. “Bankroll” refers to a significant amount of money, and having it “right” suggests that the speaker has achieved a level of wealth that brings comfort and security. It sets the stage for discussing the advantages and lifestyle that come with financial prosperity, while also acknowledging the challenges that accompany it.

3. “B!tch, I’m a smoke detector, I peep smoke”
Here, Quavo likens himself to a smoke detector, implying that he is highly perceptive and can sense trouble or conflict (“smoke”) before it escalates. This metaphor underscores his awareness and readiness to confront issues as they arise, reinforcing the theme of vigilance and proactive problem-solving.

4. “No, you can’t stop that smoke”
This refrain underscores the inevitability of facing challenges. The repetition of this phrase drives home the point that some problems are persistent and unavoidable. It suggests that instead of trying to avoid difficulties, one must confront and deal with them head-on. This message aligns with the overall theme of resilience throughout the song.

5. “Don’t let the smoke get thick”
This phrase advises against allowing problems to escalate. “Thick smoke” represents complications or conflicts becoming more intense and harder to manage. By urging listeners to prevent the smoke from getting thick, Quavo emphasizes the importance of addressing issues early before they become overwhelming. This line serves as a cautionary reminder to stay vigilant and proactive in dealing with challenges.
