Wasted
Cal Scruby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

People sayin' all my new shit kill
No shit, well my old shit kill too
Count a 150 thou
That's a lie right now, in a year that's the real truth
Ain't about that though
More about the people that'll doubt that flow
Watch 'em fall back when they hear the wrong track
I'ma need a new accountant just to count that dough
Comin' in fast, can't count that slow
Got it stacked too high, can't count that low
By the time it's 2020, I'm addicted to the money
Man, I don't know what I'd ever do without that dough
Gotta get whatever I want
I don't gotta habit, I can quit whenever I want
I don't gotta have it but if you got it I gotta grab it
I fought it, I thought I had it
I promise I'm not an addict

You wanna know why I get wasted?
Cause these bitches all basic
And when I can't take it
I'm drinkin' liquor out the bottle, no chaser

But you wanna know why I get wasted?
To forget about that
Fake shit, I ain't never been about that
All the money and the fame I can live without that

Drink, smoke, chill
Gon' and pop a pill
Bitches in the lobby, I already know they will

Drink, smoke, chill
Gon' and pop a pill
Now these bitches in my room and you already know the deal

See that all white tesla?
That's new
Said he really gettin' paid now
That's true
All eyes on me
Give a fuck about you
So you really gon' hate now
And that's cool
Fuck 'em
Do this shit all on my own, all on my own
Man up, you not in my zone
Smoke this shit all to myself, all to myself
Drink 'til the bottle is gone
I don't know why you so mad, why you so mad?
I never did you no wrong
I just be livin' my songs, that's all
Told your bitch she better leave me alone
Uh, rich white women in my nightmares
Never let me hit it in my Nike Airs
And I don't get it cause I fight fair
Hit it right, bet I put it right there
Rich black women in my dreams
Never let me get up in her jeans
Shorty what you mean?
I just bought you 4 or 5 drinks
Make it drop girl, do it for the team
All these bitches are bougie
They all wanna be wifey
She ask me if it's Gucci
I tell her: "Yeah bitch, it might be"
Now we in the jacuzzi and I still got on my Nikes
Cause I've been drinkin', smokin', chillin', wasted
That's why she like me

You wanna know why I get wasted?
Cause these bitches all basic
And when I can't take it
I'm drinkin' liquor out the bottle, no chaser

But you wanna know why I get wasted?
To forget about that
Fake shit, I ain't never been about that
All the money and the fame I can live without that

Drink, smoke, chill
Gon' and pop a pill
Bitches in the lobby, I already know they will

Drink, smoke, chill




Gon' and pop a pill
Now these bitches in my room and you already know the deal

Overall Meaning

In "Wasted," Cal Scruby proudly boasts about his riches and success in the music industry. He talks about how his new songs are just as good, if not better, than his old ones. Cal also mentions how he's making a lot of money and how it's "addictive" to have so much wealth. He acknowledges that people may doubt him, but they'll fall back once they hear his impressive flow. Cal then talks about his preferred way of coping with basic people and fake situations: drinking, smoking, and popping pills. Essentially, he's using those vices to forget about those things and the fact that money and fame aren't always worth it.


The chorus of the song is where Cal explains the real reason he gets wasted. He compares all women to being basic and says that drinking is his way of coping with them. When he can't handle it anymore, he just drinks liquor straight out of the bottle. The reason he gets wasted is to forget about all of the fake things in his life that aren't important to him. He isn't here for the money or the fame, just the love of the music.
