Details about Lil Boosie’s “Rocket Man” Lyrics Talking About Migos Takeoff’s Death
On his new song ‘Rocket Man’ Lil Boosie pays homage to Takeoff with some very deep lyrics, and cool wordplay. In one verse he says, “We used to be heroes, no they shoot us down like free throws, like killing a rapper a cheat code. Popping perks is cooler than selling kilos. Women showing too much looking like cheap h**s. And I hope you know what she know they gone try to take you before Takeoff, Long Live Migos… Rocket Man”. That verse is so deep it belongs on poster in a museum somewhere. So many layers of depth to what he said.

It’s tragic how much talent has been lost over the years due to gun violence.
