Most celebrities love tattoos. They have some really beautiful and amazing tattoos inked on their bodies. The celebrity singers usually have more tattoos than the actors or actresses in the Hollywood. It is understandable that people who act in movies or TV shows can't really have tattoos like the rappers. When we talk about rappers who have tattoos, we need to talk about Lil Wayne. If you ever saw a shirtless picture of Lil Wayne, you would see nothing but tattoos on his body. We doubt even Lil Wayne knows how many tattoos are there on his body! Here are fifteen Lil Wayne Tattoos and their meanings. 

1.Bible Verse

Nothing says "menacing" like somebody with the word of The Lord inked on his back in strong powerful lettering. It symbolizes somebody who's not afraid to die. But in Lil Wayne's case it very likely also symbolizes somebody who's not afraid to live.

2.Life's A Gamble On His Left Shoulder

Sometimes the simplest statements speak the loudest. One can only imagine what kind of horror in Lil Wayne's life must have inspired this tattoo. But it was probably something that made him realize that life was too short to worry about pleasing everybody. Especially those who don't like tattoos.

3.Weezy On His Neck

Weezy was Lil Wayne's childhood nickname. It makes it easy to imagine a young Lil Wayne at a more innocent time in his life, before his career and before all the tattoos. It also contrasts with all the other more violent imagery that surround it.

4.A Gun In The Palm Of His Hand

This is probably as close to violence that we'll see Lil Wayne get in public. Whether he was making a statement about the prevalence of gun violence in hip hop or simply being cool, his point is made crystal clear.

5.The World In The Palm Of His Hand

Sometimes a few simple words say a lot. In this case there's a number of things the word can mean. But as always with Lil Wayne, the meaning may be better left a mystery. What matters most is how amazing it looks.

6.Smiley Face On His Lower Lip

Lil Wayne has an inner lip tattoo too. "The Carter" star inked a small smiley face on the inside part of his lower lip. He got the tattoo sometime back when inner lip tattoos were a popular fashion trend. Oh yes, no one can see such tattoos unless the wearer force opens their lips to show the ink to people. Apparently, Lil Wayne had to put similar effort to show his tattoo to the world! An inner lip tattoo signifies nothing. However, it often suggests that one has run out of body space to house more tattoos! Nonetheless, it's not as weird or repulsive as an eyeball tattoo.

7.Flower

This tattoo represents the softer side of Lil Wayne. Nothing more than a delicate flower amidst all of the angry, violent chaos found elsewhere on his body. It's hard to say if it symbolizes anything in particular or if Lil Wayne just likes the contradiction.

8.ESPN Tattoo On His Arm

The world of sports has changed a great deal in the past few decades. This tattoo illustrates that. There was a time when athletes had to be squeaky clean. No tattoos. No drugs. These days athletes want to be like Lil Wayne.

9.Tear Drops

If you see someone who has a teardrop tattoo, fear them! The tattoo has many widely accepted meanings, and some of them are downright scary. A teardrop tattoo symbolizes a homicide. It means the wearer might have killed someone. The body art also indicates the loss of a family member or friend. Some believe the tattoo also represents attempted murder or a close shave with death. The multimillionaire rapper Lil Wayne has this teardrop tattoo, and it is one of the most notable tattoos on his body. The rapper's tattoo has some kind of connection to Bloods gang, or may symbolize Wayne's criminal past.

10.Soo Woo Tattoo Under His Left Ear For His Bloods

Lil Wayne is perhaps the most famous Bloods member, and he is never afraid of showing his loyalty to the gang publicly. As you may know, Soo Woo is a kind of gang slogan used by the Bloods members. This tattoo also reminds us the lethal side and the shady past of Lil Weezy! He was once an active and influential member of the gang, but little do people know about the things Lil Wayne had done as a gangster. Although we are curious to learn about his past, we think it may be wise not to ask people with such gang tattoos too many questions!

11.Lucky Me Under His Left Ear

This is another one that's easy to miss. But it sums everything up beautifully. In spite of all the arrogance it takes to cover one's body with ink, Lil Wayne still has enough humility to acknowledge how lucky he is.

12.Cracks Coming From His Hairline

13.I Am Music Just Above His Right Eye

Amidst all the other louder angrier tattoos scattered about his body, it's easy to miss one of his more subtle statements. With three very simple words he reminds us of his real purpose in life: to entertain.

14.Misunderstood And 2 Rows Of Stars With Some Of Them Being Ultraviolet

Lil Wayne is one of the most successful rappers. He has written, sung and performed many songs throughout his professional career. He has a plethora of tattoos on his body that clearly expresses his inner feelings. The millionaire rapper from Louisiana feels like people still misunderstand him despite expressing his views and opinions in numerous ways including through his songs. He has the word "misunderstood" along with some UV stars inked on the left side of his face, right on his temple bone. Many of us think that people don't understand us, but we don't try to complain about it with a stamp on our face. Lil Wayne is so expressive that he even lets people know that he is being misunderstood all the times! It's a kind of an irony, isn't it?

15.Fear God

If we were to rate Lil Wayne's tattoos, we would place this Fear God tattoo on the top! We would do that not because the tattoo is about God, but because of the pain Lil Wayne had to endure while getting the tattoo. Oh man, one really needs to have b*lls of steel to get an eyelid tattoo. Unsurprisingly, this body art signifies Lil Wayne's religious beliefs. As you may already know, he says he reads Bible and at times tells people that he even talks to God!
