Curren$y & Wiz Khalifa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You can tell that I'm somewhere in the building on my Batman shit
Niggas suspended from the ceiling
Not really, but that's the way the weed got me feeling
Got a low rise in Venice
Mami you got the vision and I see it H.D.
And it couldn't be any clearer
You should be with Spitta
Good guy Spitta keep his name outta them scandals
It's not a secret, I prefer my girls in sneakers, never sandals
Posing naked in only a pair of Nike Vandals
Bottles pop, back to back
Extra large chronic sack
Cellphone, camera's out
Mama I remember that
Anytime I look at that
I go to wondering where you at
So baby where you at
With it
I'm just tryna hit it on the friendly
And maybe we get back up in a minute
[Chorus: x2]
Fast cars
Fly clothes
G5's flying on the seashores
Get it
Baby I'm just tryna hit it on the friendly
So tell me if you is
Or if you isn't
With it
(Yeah)
Listen, if you with it, get in
What you sipping
Hit it out of the park
That's if you pitching
First you look at me wrong
Like uh uh, no he didn't
Then you turn into rubbing on me
You start to give in, get it
By the beach, watching tennis
Crack another bottle of Perignon
Louis V carry-ons when you visit
Sending all them singles in your sidekick sentence
Then I reply like be there in a minute
Just put me and Curren$y on your friend list
The weed come from a village
Truck tire, sour diesel scented, that's real shit
From smelling this she wanna see how the cigar taste
We lighting reefer bumping 808's & heartbreaks
Skinny broad but out them jeans she got a heart shape
Skip the movie date and take her to the horse race
And let you bet it all keep the winnings
Young entrepreneur give you the business, dig it (Yeah)
[Repeat: x2]
Fast cars
Fly clothes
G5's flying on the seashores
Get it
Baby I'm just tryna hit it on the friendly
So tell me if you is
Or if you isn't
With it
(Yeah)
In the opening lines of "Friendly," Curren$y and Wiz Khalifa set the scene with a reference to Batman - Curren$y suggests that the strength of the smell of their marijuana is so potent that you can easily detect that they are in the building. In the following lines, we get a hint of romantic interest as Curren$y meets a woman in Venice and encourages her to "be with Spitta." He emphasizes that this is her chance to change her fate and be with a "good guy" who keeps his name out of scandals. He goes on to describe his preference for women in sneakers over sandals and muses about a woman posing naked in only a pair of Nike Vandals.
As the song progresses, Curren$y and Wiz Khalifa describe their pursuit of a sexual encounter with a woman who is "with it." They reference fast cars, fly clothes, and flying on G5s on the seashores as they promise to take their partners and enjoy life's luxuries. As they continue to rap, they describe a scene where the women they're with slowly start to give in to their advances. The song's sexual themes are clear, but they're also presented in a way that emphasizes consent and mutual interest - both performers are explicit in that they want to "hit it on the friendly."
Overall, "Friendly" is a song about chasing pleasure, pursuing romantic interest, and enjoying life's luxuries. It's a song that blends confident braggadocio with romantic interest and clear communication about desires. It's a classic Curren$y and Wiz Khalifa track that celebrates taking risks and pursuing happiness.

For me this is Wiz's best verse EVER. I remember hearing this in highschool back in 2010-2011, loved Wiz back then. Can't say I'm still so much of a huge fan but the way he flows on this verse is like water. So effortless. Shit this might be one of my favorite rapper verses ever.
