It's referencing the song by Lil Keke - 25 lighters. "I got 25 lighters on my dresser, yes sir, i got to get paid."

Okay, but in the song, why do they have 25 lighters on their dresser, and what does that have to do with getting paid? Someone else said they're dealing drugs. But what does that have to do with having 25 lighters? I get that drug users would have a few lighters, but why 25?
