Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Same story, same hoe
Same thing, same clothes
I had her waiting
She was tryna go back to my location
Hey, she ain't no doctor, got no patience
Hey, damn you smelling good, I love your fragrance
God damn, you looking good, I had to smash that (I had to smash that)
But then you gotta know I had to let you go (had to let you go, let you go)
It was you, it wasn't me, I had to let you know
Man, this chick won't leave me 'lone, leave me 'lone, yeah
I tried to put her on my bro, on my bro, yeah
But she still came back, came back, yeah
Damn, she still came back, came back
No I don't need shit, I'm good, I'm good (tell 'em what it is)
No I don't need shit, I'm good, I'm good (tell 'em what it is)
Treat the Backwood like a treasure map (tell 'em what it is)
Throw it back girl, I can handle that
But I ain't really tryna spend the time (no time)
Why you always blowing up my line? (Brrp, brrp)
Why you always tryna get on my buzz? (Come on)
Holla at my niggas, get off my nuts, oh God
I had her waiting
She was tryna go back to my location
Hey, she ain't no doctor, got no patience
Hey, damn you smelling good, I love your fragrance
God damn, you looking good, I had to snatch that (I had to snatch that)
God damn, you looking good, I had to smash that (I had to smash that)
But then you gotta know I had to let you go (had to let you go, let you go)
It was you, it wasn't me, I had to let you know
It was you, it wasn't me
I had to let you go (tell 'em what it is)
It was you, it wasn't me
I had to let you know (tell 'em what it is)
If I said it then I mean it
I had to let you know (tell 'em what it is)
It was you, it wasn't me
I had to let you know (tell 'em what it is)
She got tats like strippers
She got ass like strippers
She got sass, she got plans
She ain't ask for a picture
She know just what she came for
She got just what she came for
I'ma run it up, throw the dueces up
Fuck we playin' all the games for?
I know the truth about you
We know the truth about you
You want money, fame, all the things the game brings
Girl it's such a shame (Never worried 'bout a thing, trust me)
But I ain't really tryna spend the time (no time)
Why you always blowing up my line? (Brrp, brrp)
Why you always tryna get on my buzz? (Come on)
Holla at my niggas, get off my nuts, oh God
I had her waiting
She was tryna go back to my location
Hey, she ain't no doctor, got no patience
Hey, damn you smelling good, I love your fragrance
God damn, you looking good, I had to snatch that (I had to snatch that)
God damn, you looking good, I had to smash that (I had to smash that)
But then you gotta know I had to let you go (had to let you go, let you go)
It was you, it wasn't me, I had to let you know
It was you, it wasn't me
I had to let you go (tell 'em what it is)
It was you, it wasn't me
I had to let you know (tell 'em what it is)
If I said it then I mean it
I had to let you know (tell 'em what it is)
It was you, it wasn't me
I had to let you know (tell 'em what it is)
If I said it then I mean it
The lyrics of “Fragrance” by Bas featuring Correy C are about a woman who Bas had a one-night stand with. He thought the encounter would be just for the night but the woman keeps coming back to him. Bas admits that he found her fragrance and appearance attractive, which is why he “snatched” her and “smashed” her. However, he ultimately decided to end things with her because she wanted more from him than he was willing to give. The lyric "It was you, it wasn't me" emphasizes that he didn't want a relationship with her.
The song highlights the themes of casual sex and the inability to commit. Bas refers to the woman as a “hoe" and mentions that he did not want to commit to her. He only wanted a physical relationship with her but ended things because she was looking for something more.
Overall, the song describes the common one-night stand scenario, where one person wants more and the other wants to keep things casual.
