Jet
Desiigner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'mma run right through this paper
Right through a check
Cop me a jet
Go cop me a jet
Go cop me a jet
I'mma run right through this paper
I'mma go right through this paper
Cop me a jet
Young nigga cop him a TEC
Cop me a jet
I spent two milla on where I rest
I got two hundred up on my neck
Dual exhausts like Twin Towers
On that Carerra I cause a jet
Please call 9-1-1
You know this a Turbo S
Still got the scale, nigga
Feel like I'm Virgo-esque
I might fuck up a check on her
If we kick it, David Beck on her
That's my Becky with the good hair
Say King Push done went left on 'em
All designers, not a problem
Ask Desiigner, I signed him (True)
Billboard's a jungle gym
Sat back and watch 'em climb 'em
It's Nobu on his charter
Crab roll starters (No chopsticks)
Main course was from
Malaysian open waters
Apollo jets, you just jet smarter
Love the money
And I'm married to the game, meet me at the altar
I'mma run right through this paper
I'mma run right through this paper
Right through a check
Cop me a jet
Go cop me a jet
Go cop me a jet
I'mma run right through this paper
I'mma go right through this paper
Right through a check
Cop me a jet
Young nigga cop him a TEC
Cop me a jet
I'mma run right through this paper
I'mma run right through this paper
Right through a check (Check, check)
I'mma go cop me a TEC (TEC, TEC)
Milly gon' cop him a TEC (TEC, TEC)
For them new shoes, die for respect
I'mma run right through this paper
I'mma run right through this paper
Ballin' hard like the Lakers
Givin' bitch nigga no favors
You gettin' hit with the razors
He gettin' hit with the shaver
Ballin' hard like the Pacers
Niggas talkin' like they raised us
None of 'em raised us
I'mma get right to this paper
I'mma get right through this paper
Run through a check
I'mma go die for respect
Bitch nigga hit like the ref
For them new shoes, die for respect
I'mma run right through this paper
I'mma run right through this paper
Right through a check
Cop me a jet
Go cop me a jet
Go cop me a jet
I'mma run right through this paper
I'mma go right through this paper
Right through a check
Cop me a jet
Young nigga cop him a TEC
Cop me a jet
The lyrics to Desiigner's "Jet" revolve around the theme of money, power, and status symbolized by owning a private jet. Desiigner is determined to run through his earnings and will do whatever it takes to accumulate enough wealth to purchase a jet. He boasts about spending "two milla" on his resting place and having "two hundred up on my neck." The reference to the Twin Towers is a metaphor for his flashy set of dual exhausts that resemble the iconic New York skyline symbol. He is confident in his abilities and status, describing himself as "Virgo-esque" and claiming he can "run right through this paper." The repetitiveness of the chorus emphasizes the rapper's unwavering determination to acquire a private jet, defining his success by his ability to flaunt his wealth.
Desiigner mentions cruising in his Porsche Carrera and causing a jet, displaying his unapologetic wealth and power. The song also features a reference to Beyoncé's "Becky with the good hair" lyric from her album, "Lemonade." There is a mention of King Push's departure from signing a particular designer, but Desiigner has no problem being signed by him. The rapper is proud of his success, as demonstrated by his belief that he can "get right through this paper," and he is unafraid to die for respect, as evidenced by his lyrics.
