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.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah
Got the 'Rari outside, got the Maybach outside, no lie, no lie
Got the 'Rari outside, got the Maybach outside, no lie, no lie
In the penthouse in my room, I can touch the sky, yeah, yeah
I just woke up with a dime, holdin' a nine, yeah, yeah
I just stuffed a Backwood with a three-five, yeah, yeah
I just put a brand new Phantom on my credit card
I just bought the Rollie store with my credit card
Put two hundred racks on my bitch debit card
I put two hundred racks on your whole squad
I'm a big time nigga, I don't owe no nigga
Cut a five million-dollar check, I blow that nigga
Twenty million-dollar liquid, I can show that nigga
Aquafina on me drippin', you can't pour this, nigga
I perform with my drum, you must don't know me, nigga
Got a thoroughbred bitch down in Texas, nigga
I can tell she got a man from how she text me, nigga
I been flexin' all my life, you can't finesse me, nigga
I been in the bando with the chick
Buy Jimmy Choo sandals 'cause I'm rich
I put the pool on the top floor
These thot hoes, they free promo
I'ma keep my ho in Chanel, Coco
Puttin' butterfly doors on a four-door
Yeah, I been in the bando with the chick
Buy Jimmy Choo sandals 'cause I'm rich
I come through turbo, hit the switch (come through turbo)
You only do pink diamonds when you rich (you only do pink diamonds)
I threw cotton candy diamonds on my bitch, yeah yeah
Got the Rollie face same Kansas City, yeah yeah
I'm just a walkin' drug store, don't you be mindin' me
I just spend ten thousand on a 'fit and I got that iron on me
I'm on a whole 'nother wave, I'm surfin' in a new Ferrari
I just been sippin', I'm drippin', I'm spillin', I'm shittin' on everybody
I got ten kilos on my wrist, yeah, yeah
Outer space froze, cold in my pics, yeah, yeah
Platinum ice, rose gold on my wrist, yeah, yeah
I got a closet for a condo
Got the 'Rari outside, got the Maybach outside, no lie, no lie
In the penthouse in my room, I can touch the sky, yeah, yeah
I just woke up with a dime, holdin' a nine, yeah, yeah
I just stuffed a Backwood with a three-five, yeah, yeah
Off the top rope, Andre the Giant, yeah, yeah
I've been in the bando with the chick
Buy Jimmy Choo sandals 'cause I'm rich
The lyrics of Future's "Touch The Sky" are characteristic of his style, mixing themes of luxury lifestyles, drug use and criminality. The song starts with the typical announcement that Southside produced it, setting the mood for a trap banger. The first verse talks about Future's opulent cars - a Ferrari and a Maybach - proclaiming that he owns them and they are parked outside. He also declares that he's in his penthouse bedroom and can touch the sky, metaphorically highlighting how he lives on top of the world.
In the second verse, Future talks about the various things he did the previous day. He woke up next to a beautiful woman, armed with a gun, and smoked a cigar stuffed with 3.5 grams of marijuana. He then references wrestling legend, Andre the Giant, stating that he's jumping off the top rope. The last verse emphasizes Future's wealth as he talks about his purchases - a Rolls Royce, a Rolex watch, and he even put $200,000 on his girlfriend's debit card. Future ends the song by stating that he's been in a "bando", a slang term for a crack house, with a woman and he bought her designer shoes because he's rich.
Overall, the lyrics of "Touch The Sky" showcase Future's braggadocio about his wealth and expensive taste, while also touching on his association with criminality and drug use.
