ballin
Can you explain the word 'ballin' in this sentence;
"If it was nobody there when you were struggling make sure it's nobody there when you ballin."
It's also worth noticing that the grammar in this sentence is non-standard. 'If it was nobody there ...make sure it's nobody there' is not proper English. Maybe some kind of patois? Please don't try to learn the English language from sentences like this!

"Ballin'" here is slang. It is used as the opposite of "struggling" so it means "doing well."
