Purple Kisses
A$AP Rocky Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Purple kisses on your neck
Thinking 'bout the day we met
Body dripping sweat, eat that
Beat that pussy wet purple silhouettes
Purple drank and cigarettes
She is my addiction, nigga need a Nicorette
A$AP tat cause that's what a nigga rep
Style fresh to death
Show you bitches how to flaunt
And the Yves St laurent, or her Isabel Marant
Like when Jay Z out, tryna take B out
All these magazines try to play me out
All my ex-girls tryna fade me out
By the ending I was finished
So it's crazy how
It's so easy to fall in love
Okay wait, now hold up
Let me switch that flow up
Call her to come over and you
Just try to control her
Ever since I growed up
I been got my dough up
Now I'm smoking more blunts and I'm
Sipping 'til I'm poured up
Tore up from the floor up
Tore down from my toes up
Get throwed 'til I throw up
But I'm pimping like I'm 'sposed to
Got the illest chocha, reason why I chose her
Mami is a rider and see me I be that roller
She hate a rap nigga walking with his nose up
She date a rap nigga walking with his toaster
So take your picture, get your close-up
Another fake imitation
Just a poser on a poster
I did it again for my culture
Went Testarossa, traded it in for a Rover
Just to get in and get chauffeured
Driver pull over
Tipping and picking these hoes up
I'm slipping from feeling this sober
Window is rolled up
This purple kissed on my shoulder
Undress and I sex and I hold her
Caressing her breast with my head on
Her chest I'm all on her
It's so easy to fall in love

Went Testarossa, traded it in for a Rover
Switching from owning a luxury car, the Testarossa, to a more practical and comfortable vehicle like a Rover
Just to get in and get chauffeured
Upgrading my transportation to be driven around by a professional chauffeur
Driver pull over
Requesting the driver to stop the vehicle momentarily
Tipping and picking these hoes up
Bribing and carefully selecting women to join me
I'm slipping from feeling this sober
Losing control and becoming less coherent when I'm not under the influence
Window is rolled up
The car window is closed and raised
This purple kissed on my shoulder
Referring to the mark left on my shoulder from a sensual encounter
Undress and I sex and I hold her
Removing clothing and engaging in sexual activities while embracing and holding her
Caressing her breast with my head on
Gently touching and stroking her breasts while resting my head on her
Her chest I'm all on her
Closely and intimately engaging with her on her chest
It's so easy to fall in love
Expressing how effortless it can be to develop deep feelings of love for someone
