Play It Again
Becky G Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Watch me take it up, then I break it down
I don't play sports, but it's a touchdown
I don't blend in, I-I'm a black sheep
And even then, ha, they still follow me
I rock the race stripes, go and check my closet
Never share the guap, go and check my wallet
I'm a comet, out of this planet
Sittin' on the throne, and these haters can't stand it

DJ play my song on the radio
Lifts me up when I'm feelin' low
Drop the beat and play it again, play it again, yeah
DJ spin it back if you feelin' me
The 808 track is all I need
Drop the beat and play it again, play it again, yeah

Now watch me do my thang, do my thang out on the stage
I become an animal, go and put me in a cage
I'm a beast, I'm a beast
Why they let me off my leash?
No, you can't tame me, in this jungle of concrete
I'm a creature, I ain't lyin', not a cheater, I'm a lioness
They sayin' that I'm the best and I ain't drop an album yet
I got them waitin', anticipatin', they losin' patience
My music is vaccination for all my loyal patients

DJ play my song on the radio
Lifts me up when I'm feelin' low
Drop the beat and play it again, play it again, yeah
DJ spin it back if you feelin' me
The 808 track is all I need
Drop the beat and play it again, play it again, yeah

Light
Silver moon, moon light
Let the boom, boom play
Turn it up 'til you feel that bass (whoa oh)
Rock
Never gon', gon' stop
Say what you wan-wanna, say
We finna keep goin' anyway (whoa oh)

DJ play my song on the radio
Lifts me up when I'm feelin' low
Drop the beat and play it again, play it again, yeah
DJ spin it back if you feelin' me
The 808 track is all I need
Drop the beat and play it again, play it again, yeah

DJ play my song on the radio
Lifts me up when I'm feelin' low
Drop the beat and play it again, play it again, yeah
DJ spin it back if you feelin' me




The 808 track is all I need
Drop the beat and play it again, play it again, yeah

She contrasts herself with sports players by saying she doesn't play sports but still manages to score like it's a touchdown. Similarly, she says she doesn't blend in with others but is still followed by fans. She acknowledges that she's different and that's what makes her special.


The chorus of the song is a plea to the DJ to play her song again and again, as it uplifts her when she's feeling low. The 808 track is all she needs to get pumped up, and the DJ spinning it back will get her and her fans even more energized. The final verse finds Becky G comparing herself to an animal, calling herself a lioness, and her music her "vaccination" for loyal fans.
