After releasing a series of moderately successful mixtapes between 2010 and 2011, Future signed a major label deal with Epic Records and fellow American rapper Rocko's A1 Recordings, which helped launch his own label imprint Freebandz. Future subsequently began working on his debut studio album "Pluto," and in April 2012 released the album to positive reviews. The album spawned five singles, all of which charted on the Billboard Hot 100. The album was later re-released in November, as "Pluto 3D." His second studio album "Honest," was released on April 22, 2014, and is also performing with his group Freeband Gang. He released his highly anticipated third studio album, "DS2," on July 16, 2015. The Atlanta rapper also released several mixtapes during 2015, "Beast Mode" in January, "56 Nights" in March, and "What a Time to Be Alive (with Drake)" in September. Future released "Purple Reign" in January 2016. The 13-track mixtape was executive produced by Metro Boomin and DJ Esco, with additional production from Southside, Zaytoven, and more.

I'm on savage time
I'm on ratchet time
I go smash her she so outta pocket
I go smash her but she photocopied
Once I adapted I got more options
I told her ignore that bitch she told me "yes daddy"
Hoe you telling they business so tacky
We don't cuddle with none of you bitches
We don't wanna hustle with none of you niggas
Uh, I'm cool on them, don't even dap them niggas
Uh, I was in the trap they tried to trap a nigga
I pull up in that new Maybach and they wave
These niggas won't show no deuces they got hoe-waves
I walk inside the club and they wave
I put headshots and more hits out on my enemies
I got love for all my niggas who got love for me
I got Bloods, Crips, and GDs in my family tree
And where ever I go them Vice Lords with me
You don't want no static we just got these things established
Bobble head bitches, they just smash automatic
Your baby-momma outta pocket knowing I'm a savage
I told you I don't give you the dope
I told you I don't give you that dope
You niggas don't exist we eat filet mignon
Go brazy with your bitch she try to stay the night
The first thing in the AM send her on a flight
Yeah, I'm on savage time nigga
I'm on savage time
I'm on ratchet time
I go smash her she so outta pocket
I go smash her but she photocopied
I passed her off like "oh bitch I'm him"
I'm seeing the way she actin' on the gram
You misrepresenting who I am
Oh, hold up
That photoshop making me nervous
I told you it's making me nervous
I know you ain't saving that pussy
You let somebody play in that pussy
And it's o, it's okay though
I got love for all my niggas who got love for me
I got Bloods, Crips, and GDs in my family tree
And where ever I go them Vice Lords with me
You don't want no static we just got these things established
Bobble head bitches, they just smash automatic
Your baby-momma outta pocket knowing I'm a savage
I told you I don't give you the dope
I told you I don't give you that dope
You niggas don't exist we eat filet mignon
Go brazy with your bitch she try to stay the night
The first thing in the AM send her on a flight
(Yeah, I'm on savage time nigga
I'm on savage time
I'm on ratchet time
I go smash her she so outta pocket
I go smash her but she photocopied)
In "Photo Copied," Future describes his uncompromising approach to his relationships and dealings with others. He declares that he is on "savage time" and "ratchet time," indicating that he is in the mood for recklessness and wildness. He boasts about smashing a woman who is out of pocket, meaning she is behaving erratically or inappropriately, but he also notes that she is "photocopied," which suggests that she is not unique or authentic, but rather a copy of someone else.
Future then turns his attention to his business dealings, stating that he has more options now that he has adapted to his situation. He tells a woman to ignore another woman who is spreading gossip, and then boasts about not cuddling with any women and not wanting to hustle with any men. He claims to be cool on them and even references being caught in a trap before. He then flexes his wealth and power, noting that he pulls up to the club in a new Maybach and that his enemies are in his crosshairs.
The chorus repeats that he is on savage and ratchet time and that he goes after women who are out of pocket but photocopied. He then speaks directly to a woman whom he has passed off, or brushed aside, telling her that he knows she is misrepresenting him on social media. He notes that photoshop makes him nervous and accuses her of letting someone else "play in that pussy." He then repeats the chorus again, emphasizing his savage and ratchet behavior and his approach to women.
