Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, oh, oh-oh
Seen the way you talkin' up my phone last night, on God
Mally Mall

It was way more than a two dollar holla
Stole your heart like Ali Baba (oh, your heart)

Seen the way you talkin' up my phone last night, on God (on my phone last night)
Do it on my jet, let's keep this private
She wants me too, she ain't even in denial (denial)
Wanna make love, she ain't even in denial (in denial)
We can get away-ay, maybe to Guatemala ('temala)
Got me goin' deep, got me all in freshwater (goin' under)

Baby when you laughin' is it 'cause you feel an excellent vibe? (Ooh, ooh)
That was just a fraction of the good, love I provide (ooh, ooh)
See some niggas talkin' on the side, can you keep that silent? (Keep that quiet)
Maybe sayin' somethin' but you didn't mean nothin' by it
Took her to the room, in other words kept that private (kept that private)
She was my heartbreak, I told her keep those violets (ooh, ooh)

Seen the way you talkin' up my phone last night, on God (talkin' on the phone)
Do it on my jet, let's keep this private
She wants me too, she ain't even in denial (denial)
Wanna make love, she ain't even in denial (in denial)
We can get away-ay, maybe to Guatemala (Guatemala)
Got me goin' deep, got me all in freshwater (freshwater)

Flew in on a jet, what's that? Stylish
Take another sip, then get superpowers (woah, oh, oh)
If she got the hots for me, then dammit, I'm buyin' (I'm, I'm buyin')
I've got more pull than him and him combined (him combined)
Pourin' out dreams, 'cause we're really this high (really that high)
I just had my hand on her hip, she had her eyes on the prize (eyes on the prize)

Seen the way you talkin' up my phone last night, on God (talkin' on the phone)
Do it on my jet, let's keep this private
She wants me too, she ain't even in denial (denial)
Wanna make love, she ain't even in denial (in denial)
We can get away-ay, maybe to Guatemala (Guatemala)
Got me goin' deep, got me all in freshwater (freshwater)

Seatbelt, she roller coaster ridin'
Put you on a plane, been thinkin' 'bout it
Sippin' on Fiji, yeah, you taste like water (hey, hey)
Chasin' me, tryna make me your partner (tryna make me your partner)
Maybe we can lock in later on (yeah)
I can't guarantee I'll fall (fall)
Baby, we should lock in later on (hey)
I can't guarantee my heart (hey)
Baby, don't take too, too long (too long)
I ain't ever miss my mark (my mark)
Yeah, my ex-girl had to move on (on)
There's no pictures on the wall (ayy, ayy)

Seen the way you talkin' up my phone last night, on God (talkin' on the phone)
Do it at my house, let's keep this private (keep this private)
She wants me too, she ain't even in denial (in denial)
Wanna make love, she ain't even in denial (in denial)
We can get away-ay, maybe to Guatemala ('temala)
Got me goin' deep, got me all in freshwater (goin' under)

Overall Meaning

"Guatemala," by Rae Sremmurd Swae Lee & Slim Jxmmi, is a love song about a man who receives a phone call from his lover, confessing her feelings for him. The lyrics are filled with references to secrecy and privacy, emphasizing that the relationship between the two must remain discreet. The song starts with the singer acknowledging how he feels like a boss after receiving the phone call from his lover. He goes on to compare himself to Ali Baba, the singer from the folk tale Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, because he feels that he has stolen the heart of his lover. The chorus emphasizes the need for privacy, and the two decide to get away to Guatemala where they can be alone.


The second verse starts with the man questioning why the woman is laughing and whether it is because she feels positive about the relationship. He then goes on to say that he's aware some people have been talking about them, but he wants to keep everything quiet. The verse ends with him taking her to the room and telling her to keep everything between them. The third verse sees a change of pace as the two are now flying on a private jet, and she is riding the "roller coaster" of love. The singer is contemplating the possibility of a future with the woman but cautions her that he can't guarantee his heart. Nevertheless, he encourages her not to take too long and assures her that he won't miss his mark.

Guatemala is awesome and is very well set up for tourism. You don't really have to know your way around. Just be open to meeting people and asking about places to go.

Antigua
Semuc Champey/Lanquin
Flores
Tikal
Rio Dulce
Monterico
Pacaya
Lago de Atitlan

Small country with so many things to do, and great people.
