Real rollies never tik tik tok tok tok
All I know is how to get get gwuap gwuap gwuap
Said she heard my song on tik tik tok tok tok
Summertime it's finna get get hot hot hot
Look I'm pulling up then I'm leaving
Cop pulled me over I'm speeding
He trynna search what's the reason

I'm linking up with a rican
She blessing me like I'm sneezing
I aint got time for no tweeting
If I don't like you I aint speaking
I'm blowing on loud and them girls think I’m quiet
If you not a smoker then don't even try it
My pockets fat and they don't need a diet
I'm trynna sell it and won't even buy it
I never met you you act like you know me
Calling me bro and we not even homies
How is it ticking that's not a real rollie
Real rollies never tik tik tok tok tok
All I know is how to get get gwuap gwuap gwuap

If I don't like you I aint speaking
Flipping the money it's ready to tumble
Good in the hood its already the jungle
Living my life and already been humble
No video game but I'm ready to rumble
No time for beefing I'm leveling up
If I push a beamer it's seven and up
If your rollie ticking that’s never what's up

Overall Meaning

The song "Tik Tik Boom" by G.R.L. is a lively and energetic track that combines infectious beats with confident and boastful lyrics. The song is driven by the rapper's desire for success and his determination to achieve it through hard work and a go-getter attitude. The refrain, "Real rollies never tik tik tok tok tok / All I know is how to get get gwuap gwuap gwuap," is a reference to the luxury watch brand Rolex, where a real Rolex watch would not tick tick but instead sweep, and the slang term "gwuap" meaning money. The rapper is drawing a comparison between the real Rolex and his own desire to make money through his music.

The verses in "Tik Tik Boom" are all about the rapper's lifestyle and the people he surrounds himself with. He talks about getting pulled over by the police for speeding, linking up with a Puerto Rican woman who blesses him, and not having time for social media. The lines "Flipping the money it's ready to tumble / Good in the hood its already the jungle" illustrate how the rapper is hustling to make money and survive in a tough neighborhood. Additionally, the line "No time for beefing I'm leveling up" speaks to the rapper's focus on his success and his unwillingness to get caught up in unnecessary drama or conflict.
