Dreamville Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Big for now
It's a check
I got the chopper, yeah, ay, ay, ay
I got the chopper, it sing like opera, I make it swoon the bitch
They know my name, when I'm swerving lanes they still ask who that is
She on the Molly at the house party, hope she don't play the kid
Don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, yeah
Don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, no
Don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, yeah
(Don't hit me) don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now
Don't hit me right now, bitch (it's a check)
I ain't opposed
She threw the pussy and I ain't opposed
Fighting the lows
Smoking this shit 'til my eyelids are closed
I wear the sheepskin but I am the wolf
I am the poster-child
Finessing the lion that's posing in clothing and lying
To open it, hope that these niggas'll try him
I smoke 'em, I smoke 'em, I
I fry 'em, I sizzle 'em (yeah)
They bitin', they nibblin' (ay)
They lyin', they fibbin' it (whoa)
They childish, they children (trash)
They quiet, they whispering
They dying, I'm killin' 'em (yeah)
They dry, I'm drippin' in (ooh)
They crying, I'm teachin', man (yeah)
Ay, I got the chopper, it sing like opera, I make it swoon the bitch
They know my name, when I'm swerving lanes they still ask who that is
She on the Molly at the house party, hope she don't play the kid
Can't hit my phone, I'm on airplane mode, I'm still on two percent
Don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, yeah
Don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, no
Don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, yeah
(Don't hit me) don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now
Don't hit me right now, bitch (man, let me call you back)
I'm doin' somethin' important
Tryna get these racks
New day, new flight that I'm boarding
All of my bitches important
I seen you call, I ignored it
I got ten toes on the pavement
But my mind is in orbit, gorgeous
I say a prayer to bless mine
This ain't a quiz, don't test mine
I ain't been Wiz, but I get high
You ain't a man 'til you get by, yeah
I ain't trippin' off of nothin', you know I'ma get it, yeah
I ain't trippin' off of nothin', you know that I'm winnin'
Ay, I got the chopper, it sing like opera, I make it swoon the bitch
They know my name, when I'm swerving lanes they still ask who that is
She on the Molly at the house party, hope she don't play the kid
Can't hit my phone, I'm on airplane mode, I'm still on two percent
Don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, yeah
Don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, no
Don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now, yeah
(Don't hit me) don't hit me right now, don't hit me right now
Don't hit me right now, bitch (it's a check)
The lyrics of Dreamville's song Don't Hit Me Right Now are centered around the singer's frenzied state of mind as they navigate the troubled waters of fame and fortune. The song is a hip hop anthem that speaks to the complex experiences and feelings that come with success. The singer addresses the listener directly, imploring them not to hit their phone and disturb them during their moment of triumph.
The song begins with the declaration that the singer is "big for now" and has "got the chopper", which they proceed to make sing like an opera. The chopper (a slang term for a machine gun) represents the singer's power and success, while the comparison to an opera invokes grandeur and melodrama. The singer then goes on to describe their experiences with fame, including the fact that people still ask who they are even as they swerve lanes. They also comment on the shallowness of their party lifestyle, with a mention of someone on Molly (a drug) at a house party.
The chorus is a repetition of the words "don't hit me right now", which takes on a dual meaning. On one hand, it is a plea for the listener to leave them alone, while on the other hand, it serves as an acknowledgment that the singer is going through a difficult period and needs time to process their feelings. The verses continue with the singer ruminating on their status in the industry, their success with the opposite sex, and their addiction to drugs. The song ends with the singer declaring that they are a winner and telling the listener not to call them again.
Overall, Don't Hit Me Right Now is a poignant commentary on the complexities of fame and the toll it takes on individuals. The song speaks to the feelings of isolation and loneliness that often come with success, as well as the overwhelming desire for self-preservation and control. Through the use of evocative imagery and powerful metaphors, the singer conveys the intensity of their experience and the urgency of their message.
