What he said
She said
They said
Can't get into ya head
You know how we moving
I know I'm a lucky man
I know I'm a lucky man
What he said
She said
They said
Can't get into ya head
You know how we moving
I know I'm a lucky man
I know I'm a lucky man
Lemme get a second
You the first to leave me breathless
Took the voice out of my words
I can't swerve in intersections
You know when we get to texting
I show off finesse and
Anything you ever question
I'm on call in twenty seconds
I'm like what's good shorty
You can always call me
Put me on speed dial
I'll answer shortly
Can't force the aura
But then I made Flores
And then we stood the rain
Even tho that -ish was pouring
Baby don't get upset
What he said
She said
They said
Can't get into ya head
You know how we moving
I know I'm a lucky man
I know I'm a lucky man
Baby don't get upset
What he said
She said
They said
Can't get into ya head
You know how we moving
I know I'm a lucky man
I know I'm a lucky man
Brown Skin Shorty
From the east coast of Africa
I'm so into you
Like Emily to Fabulous
Padmé to Anakin
Needles to Dialysis
I'm so into you
Like Doctor Strange to Magic
And it's crazy
No you couldn't pay me
To sell my soul or cheat on my lil baby
Only lord knows how to truly treat yo lady
Eyes on the the opps before they try to treat my lady
Baby don't get upset
What he said
She said
They said
Can't get into ya head
You know how we moving
I know I'm a lucky man
I know I'm a lucky man
Baby don't get upset
What he said
She said
They said
Can't get into ya head
You know how we moving
I know I'm a lucky man
I know I'm a lucky man
The lyrics to D-Bop's "Lucky" tell the story of two individuals who were once very similar, but as time went on, they grew into their own unique selves. The song nostalgically recalls a time when these individuals were seen as a single entity, sharing everything from their clothing to their identity. The line "two shirts the same shared all but names, N instead of E" hints at the similarity between the two individuals, with only a single letter distinguishing them.

Despite these challenges, however, the song ultimately celebrates the beauty of individuality, and the realization that the two individuals who once seemed so similar were, in fact, "lucky sons" to have grown into their unique, authentic selves.

Line by Line Meaning
Recall a time we walked that line
Remember the time when we had a common goal and we walked towards it together
As one for all to see
We appeared united to the outside world
A common day set to erase
We didn't want to stand out and blend in with everyone else
My singularity
My individuality was not something I wanted to display
Two shirts the same shared all but names
We had identical shirts and only our names were different
N instead of E
We had a different letter on our shirts instead of our own initials
Was two for one and all or none
We were seen as a duo and either we succeeded together or we failed together
Us and never me
Individual achievements were not the focus, only our success as a team mattered
Now that those years have passed me by
Looking back on those times now
It's easier to see
With hindsight, everything becomes clearer
Through wiser eyes I realize
As I grew older, I understand things better
That lucky sons were we
We were fortunate to have each other
Two lives compared like no one cared
No one compared us to others, we were only concerned with our partnership
Beyond the total sum
There was more to our relationship than just the sum of its parts
Of these two parts with beating hearts
Our hearts were beating together for the same purpose
The same as everyone
Our hearts were no different from other people's hearts
The worst of tricks six hundred ticks
A difficult and stressful situation that lasted for a while
To put me in my place
To humble me and make me realize I'm not invincible
But second best was just a test
Not being the absolute best was a way to test our partnership
In an imaginary race
The competition we faced was not real, but only in our minds
We were the lucky sons
We were fortunate to have each other
The lucky sons were we
We were lucky to have each other as partners
