A “digital dashboard” is the heads-up display found in luxury vehicles. Future refers to a slew of expensive rides throughout the song, including the BMW 6 & 7 Series, Rolls Royce Ghost, 1963 Chevy Impala, and Lamborghini.

The Los Angeles Times described the song, along with several of the tracks, as “grandiose productions that feel ripped from Future’s playbook,” while The Fader compared the song to Future’s “Never Gon Lose” from his 56 Nights mixtape.

Told myself never again

Super just showed out again
And we just keep servin' and servin' again and again and again and again
Unruly Gang, movin' reckless
I'm Harlem shakin' through the pressure
I might put Diddy on my next shit
I might could fit you in on Wednesday
I'm not here for no pretend shit
Just walked in with a girl that's makin' triple what I'm makin', what an entrance
That's when you know it's a body
Zone 6, they know it's a body
Kirkwood, they know it's a body
Lil Mexico know it's a body
Scooter in here with the zombies
Gucci get out, it's a problem
I might take Quentin to Follies
You hate your life, just be honest
I got the digital dash
She want a picture with all of my niggas to just make the visual last
But she too embarrassed to ask
I got my foot on they neck and my foot on the gas
You remind me of a quarterback, your shit is all in the past
Esco and Boomin, they got it on smash
And I got the, I got the, I got the, I got the, I

I did the digital dash (woo)
I fucked that bitch in the passenger

I gave that junky a blast
I sell that dope to your mama, though
