Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, it's Diggy
Queens, you with me?
Yeah, let's get it, let's get it
G-g-g-g go

Uh, check my million dollar swag
I tell dem ten 4 cause they wanna copy that
Uh, in the mall lotta shoppin bags
Baby girl what you want, your boy got the cab
Babe you're missin where you at,
I'ma tell I haven't seen her
Better hit her on her jag
She's gone for the evening
I make them lean back g'on call on the G now
You know what's up martin tell
I'ma g now I'ma lead off and
I'm freaky
They copy my domineer

They be rocking and I know they're watching
But I'd be acting like I don't see them
Yeah I'm still star, keep me on my job and
They'd be trying copy and paste me
Copy and paste me
I'm on and I begin my song
And they'd be trying copy and paste me
Copy and paste me, I'm gone

My shoot game they came rocking it,
My good friends all go and turn me on the sky on the Loubotin
Look like they got spots on it
My rating's up cause everybody's watching it,
I be vip you go lie where the rope is
Don't come any closer, you might step on my toes just
Ladies it's your jam leave your jacket on the sofa
Have a little glass, put your glass up on a coaster
Get it on the floor shake it shake like you're supposed to
If you know getting over tell them come, eh come uh over

Yeah I'm still star, keep me on my job and
They'd be trying copy and paste me
Copy and paste me
I'm on and I begin my song
And they'd be trying copy and paste me
Copy and paste me, I'm gone

Copy copy paste, copy copy paste
Everything that I do they trying do the same thing
Copy copy paste, copy copy paste
Trying do it how I do it, they can't do it like me
Copy copy paste, copy copy paste
Copy, copy paste paste copy paste paste
Copy, copy paste paste copy paste paste
Copy, copy paste paste copy paste paste
Copy, copy paste paste copy paste paste

Yeah I'm still star, keep me on my job and
They'd be trying copy and paste me
Copy and paste me
I'm on and I begin my song




And they'd be trying copy and paste me
Copy and paste me, I'm gone
