FIND MY WAY
DaBaby Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I keep it loaded when I ride 'cause I'm still a nigga
I fuck with her to ease my mind, 'cause I be in my feelings
And every single person in my life tell me I'm their hero
But when it's up and then go down, they treat me like the villain
Guess I forgot to mention
I'm just a nigga with a broken heart, tryna find my way back home
Ooh, I know the feelin', ain't it? (Okay)
You ever feel the way I feel, you know it feel amazin' (let's go)
I had this bitch, we used to kick it, she was feelin' baby (mwah, mwah, mwah)
She stepped on my heart, had me feelin' basic (damn)
You know how people like to come back when you level up (uh-huh)
I made a change, you stayed the same, I got ahead of ya
Plus I been tryin' to free up some time in my schedule, but (uh-huh)
When opportunity knockin', I never say no
'Cause I been busy catchin' them blessings I used to pray for (let's go)
Stackin' up the back-end like Tetris, we playin' Legos
And every day I pray to God that a nigga don't try to play, though
'Cause I don't like to play, be done gave a nigga a halo (boom, boom, boom)
I'm thinkin' 'bout the people I lost, know I got some angels
Chillin' with my freak, when we fuckin', it ease my anger
I'm takin' selfies with my bitch, she keep switchin' up different angles
And no, I never kept a bitch, but I always keep me a banger (boom, boom, boom)
I keep it loaded when I ride 'cause I'm still a nigga (ah)
I fuck with her to ease my mind, 'cause I be in my feelings
And every single person in my life tell me I'm their hero
But when it's up and then go down, they treat me like the villain
Guess I forgot to mention
I'm just a nigga with a broken heart, tryna find my way back home
And I'm sittin' here with the car in park while she ride dick to my song
Ooh, I let her ride again
She spread her legs and open up, I end up slidin' in (okay)
She know the shit excitin', you is not excitin' him (me)
She swallow me up every mornin' like a vitamin (yup)
He know to come look where I'm at, he wanna find his bitch (she with me)
Know I'm aggressive, when she kiss me, like to bite her lip (grr)
I don't be makin' love songs, they don't excite a jit (no)
Real nigga, I got feelings, (yeah) I'm not hiding it (okay, let's go)
Still pimpin', tell the bitch I really like her friend (yeah, bitch)
You know her pussy good 'cause I be tryna fly her in (yeah, bitch)
If I speak once, she don't respond, I won't say hi again (bitch)
She catch me once and let me slide, I never lie again (let's go)
My name not Melly, I got murder on my mind again (uh-huh)
I'm with the shits, I'd kill him twice if he could die again
And if he think 'bout tryin' me, he better try again
'Cause I'ma let 'em spin, if he don't drop, then we gon' slide again
I keep it loaded when I ride 'cause I'm still a nigga (ah)
I fuck with her to ease my mind, 'cause I be in my feelings
And every single person in my life tell me I'm their hero
But when it's up and then go down, they treat me like the villain
Guess I forgot to mention
I'm just a nigga with a broken heart tryna find my way back home
And I'm sittin' here with the car in park while she ride dick to my song (bitch)
DaBaby's song "Find My Way" is a raw and introspective look at the rapper's personal struggles with heartbreak and the constant pressure of his celebrity status. The opening lines immediately set the tone for the song with the question, "Wait a minute, who are you?" spitting out like a warning shot to all those who might underestimate him. The first verse reveals DaBaby's vulnerability with lines like, "I'm just a nigga with a broken heart, tryna find my way back home," while also showcasing his defiance with the repeated refrain of "I keep it loaded when I ride 'cause I'm still a nigga." The second verse continues this duality, as he opens up about a failed relationship and feeling like he's left behind those who didn't "level up" with him. But at the same time, he embraces his success and the blessings that have come with it.
The chorus ties everything together, as DaBaby laments the way his status as a hero can quickly turn into villainy in the public eye. It's a frank admission that despite his acclaim, he's still a human being trying to navigate his way through life's struggles. The bridge takes a somewhat darker turn, with DaBaby referencing YNW Melly's song "Murder On My Mind" and warning anyone who might try to cross him that he won't hesitate to "kill him twice if he could die again." The song ends with DaBaby still sitting in his parked car, watching a woman ride to his music, emphasizing the feeling of being stuck in limbo between his past and his present as he tries to find his way.
Overall, "Find My Way" is a powerful and emotional track that showcases DaBaby's versatility as an artist, as well as his willingness to reveal his true self to his audience. It's a testament to the fact that, no matter how successful we might become, we all face our own personal demons.
