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.

Future Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know that niggas full of lies, oh, oh
You know that niggas full of tries, oh, oh
You know that niggas full of lies, oh, oh
You know that niggas is full of tries, oh, oh
Tools, tools
I give you tools, tools
I give you tools, ooh
These tools are for you to use
These tools are for you to use me
Ooh, use me, what you want me for? Use me
Ooh, use me, what you want me for? Use me
Yeah, oh, use me, ooh-ooh
Use me, what you want me for?
Yes to the tights that you like, they are see-through
Guess you can rock those when I don't see you
Who piss you off, baby? Tell me, what he do?
I'll call your ex if you really want me to (I'll call him, yeah)
I'll grab your whip and take it back to Chi-Town
When I'm in Chi-Town, I treat it like it's my town
I scoop your son up from your baby daddy
From this point on, you don't have to deal with your past
You know that niggas full of lies, oh, oh (niggas, oh, oh, oh)
You know that niggas full of tries, oh, oh
You know that niggas full of lies, oh, oh (yeah, you know, 'cause you know)
You know that niggas is full of tries, oh, oh
Just so you know, I need you to know how to use me
Any way you can (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Thousand karats on my hand about to get Xanned-out
I can always lean on these bands 'cause a nigga was down and out
I got an AK on my shoulder, my trigger finger hot (I got that 'K on me)
I feel like Pink Floyd with the lean out
I feel like Pretty Boy, Money Team out
Kissin' on the water with my chains out (muah, muah)
My life is more effective than a cocaine drought
'Cause I was trapping at grandma's house when I came out
I said, "Fuck the streets," then made my own lane now
When you get high enough you can dodge rain drops (Pluto)
Go tell your mama and your daddy you in a gang now
You know that niggas full of lies, oh, oh (niggas, oh, oh, oh)
You know that niggas full of tries, oh, oh
You know that niggas full of lies, oh, oh (yeah, you know, 'cause you know)
You know that niggas is full of tries, oh, oh
Just so you know, I need you to know how to use me
Tell me what you're usin' me for
Use me to make me better
Oh, yeah, you can use me
Use me to make me better
Make me better, make me better
Use me
Use me, use me, use me, use me, okay
Use me to make me better
In this song by Future, he starts by acknowledging that life is full of lies and attempts. He then goes on to say that he is giving himself to someone else to use as they please. He repeats the phrase "use me" asking what they want him for. He then goes on to list some things he can do to help, like taking someone's car back to their hometown and dealing with their ex. He also mentions the carats on his hand being sent down and waiting for his bands. Future then talks about how high he is and how his life is more effective than a cocaine drought. He ends by repeating "use me" and asking the person to use him to make himself better.
The song seems to be about Future submitting himself to someone else and allowing them to use him however they please. The repetition of the phrase "use me" gives a sense of vulnerability and the willingness to be taken advantage of. However, Future also asserts his own value by listing the things he can do to help the other person. The song also touches on themes of materialism, with Future referencing the carats on his hand and waiting for his bands.
Overall, "Use Me" seems to be about the complex dynamics of relationships and the different roles people can play in each other's lives. The lyrics suggest a sense of desperation and longing for connection, while also acknowledging the darker aspects of life.
