Who Shot Johnny? Lyrics
[Pre-Chorus: Tyla Yaweh]
Chase beating down the door
Beat around four
It's a go, lock and load, Glock with me
A b!tch I throw away
[Chorus: Tyla Yaweh]
I just went through like four today
F**k around, pour some more today
Who the young n!gga putting on for the city
Hunnid pack, hunnid pack on the way
Like, oh, guap, money
Talking 'bout, "Who shot Johnny?"
Made myself a boss so you can't run from me
N!ggas sending shots so I send a couple hunnid
This that, oh, guap, n!gga
Still thugging like 2Pac, n!gga
[Verse 1: Tyla Yaweh]
Plug on the soda
Ask what the turnaround is
You get it right back and it's coming ahora
I see them red and blue lights
And they screaming that Johnny got hit on the corner
It's sad they got him, wasn't no witnesses watching
I know that they plotting on me
I know that they plotting on me
[Post-Verse: Tyla Yaweh]
Yeah, twelve beating on the door looking for some witnesses
Ain't nobody tell 'em sh!t 'cause they know what the business is
[Pre-Chorus: Tyla Yaweh]
Chase beating down the door
Beat around four
It's a go, lock and load, Glock with me
A b!tch I throw away
[Chorus: Tyla Yaweh]
I just went through like four today
F**k around pour some more today
Who the young n!gga putting on for the city
Hunnid pack, hunnid pack on the way
Like, oh, guap, money (Oh, guap)
Talking 'bout, "Who shot Johnny?" (Who shot Johnny?)
Made myself a boss so you can't run from me
N!ggas sending shots so I send a couple hunnid
This that, oh, guap, n!gga (Oh, guap, n!gga)
Still thugging like 2Pac n!gga (Thugging like 2Pac, n!gga)
[Verse 2: Tyla Yaweh]
My 'migos just hit me like, "Andale"
Got a couple packs that's on the way
Tryna look out for the opps
Birds in the city, they all gotta drop
Screaming out, "Who shot Johnny?" (Who shot)
Off them drugs and money (Money)
Cutthroat n!ggas ain't got time to play
They hit a n!gga with the nine today
[Post-Verse: Tyla Yaweh]
Yeah, twelve beating on the door looking for some witnesses
Ain't nobody tell 'em sh!t 'cause they know what the business is
[Pre-Chorus: Tyla Yaweh]
Chase beating down the door
Beat around four
It's a go, lock and load, Glock with me
A b!tch I throw away
[Chorus: Tyla Yaweh]
I just went through like four today
F**k around pour some more today
Who the young n!gga putting on for the city
Hunnid pack, hunnid pack on the way
Like, oh, guap, money (Oh, guap)

Made myself a boss so you can't run from me
N!ggas sending shots so I send a couple hunnid
This that, oh, guap, n!gga (Oh, guap, n!gga)
Still thugging like 2Pac n!gga (Thugging like 2Pac, n!gga)
Who Shot Johnny? Lyrics Meaning
The lyrics of "Who Shot Johnny?" by Tyla Yaweh revolves around themes of street life, dealing with violence, drug trafficking, and the challenges of maintaining a criminal lifestyle. It portrays a gritty narrative of a protagonist navigating through dangerous situations, facing threats from law enforcement and rival gangs, while also boasting about their success and resilience in the face of adversity.
[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus paints a picture of urgency and readiness for action. "Chase beating down the door" suggests someone or something is aggressively pursuing the speaker. The mention of "Glock with me" indicates the presence of a firearm for protection, while "A bitch I throw away" implies a willingness to discard anything (or anyone) that becomes a liability.
[Chorus]
The chorus reflects on the speaker's experiences, indicating that they've encountered multiple challenges ("went through like four today") but remain undeterred, perhaps even celebratory ("pour some more today"). The line "putting on for the city" suggests the speaker is representing their hometown, potentially through their actions in the streets. "Who shot Johnny?" references a common trope in street culture where violence and revenge are prevalent.
[Verse 1]
In the first verse, the speaker discusses their involvement in the drug trade ("Plug on the soda") and the risks associated with it, such as encountering law enforcement ("red and blue lights"). The mention of "Johnny got hit on the corner" alludes to a violent incident, likely involving someone from the speaker's circle. The repeated line "I know that they plotting on me" underscores the constant paranoia and awareness of potential threats.
[Post-Verse]
Following the verse, the post-verse reiterates the theme of evading law enforcement ("twelve beating on the door") and the loyalty within the speaker's circle ("Ain't nobody tell 'em shit").
[Pre-Chorus]
The second pre-chorus mirrors the first, emphasizing readiness for action and the presence of firearms.
[Chorus]
The second chorus repeats the sentiments of the first, highlighting the speaker's resilience in the face of adversity and their willingness to retaliate against those who threaten them.
[Verse 2]
In the second verse, the speaker receives a message from associates urging quick action ("Andale") in delivering drugs. References to "opp" (opposition) and the need to eliminate them suggest a continuation of the violent themes from earlier in the song. The line "Who shot Johnny?" is repeated, emphasizing the desire for retribution.
[Post-Verse]
Similar to the first post-verse, this section emphasizes the reluctance of the speaker's associates to cooperate with law enforcement.
[Pre-Chorus]
The final pre-chorus serves as a buildup to the last chorus, maintaining the tone of readiness and vigilance.
[Chorus]
The last chorus reaffirms the speaker's determination to succeed despite the challenges they face, with references to money, power, and the ongoing threat of violence reminiscent of the street life often portrayed in hip-hop culture.
