Babeo Baggins Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She act like she dont know me, till I mention the crew
Like yeah bitch! You know it's Barf Troop! [???]
The type of babes to give your fucking ass a fucking upper cut!
[???] in your mouth, steal your spouse for the hell of it
Go to church with prying hands, screaming we are celibate!
Like glory glory, how'd a sinner get so holy?
Put your hands to the sky, like you in church, pray for me
and I'm taking all ya niggas, you can take it as a favor
He's your partner for in time, but in time, I'ma take him
Yeah he finna be my partner in crime
He's a villian in the streets,
I'm a hero in the sheets!
But we gon team up, if you know what I mean
The lyrics to Babeo Baggins's song "Hero" speak about the internal conflict faced by the singer who oscillates between being a hero and a villain in different situations. The lyrics begin by describing a woman with tightly coiled hair who appears oblivious to the singer until he mentions the crew she is supposedly aware of. The subsequent lines conflate the concepts of violence and sexuality by referring to a type of woman who is both passionate and dangerous. The lines “The type of babes to give your fucking ass a fucking uppercut!/ [???] in your mouth, steal your spouse for the hell of it” evoke imagery of a woman who is not afraid to stand up and fight for what she wants.
The singer then goes on to recite lines that hint at a religious context, primarily through the reference to celibacy and a mention of glory glory. The following lines put forth the idea that the singer is a savior, here to give gifts and blessings, while also being able to take away what belongs to others. The concluding phrases refer to a villainous partner in crime, with the singer describing herself as a hero in the sheets, but alluding to a potential partnership with the villain who is a hero in the streets.

Was looking for this artist for so many years because one of their songs got stuck in my head and I couldn't remember what it was called. Only now after finding out their name again do I realize that I couldn't find them on Spotify because this album was removed and they do country now.. :( I understand that it's a different genre but it would have been nice if it remained on spotify
@samekhresh8578
clarifying 1) they're nonbinry, so they don't identify as a woman 2) they did that for rebranding purposes. it is still on reddit tho!
