Short & Sweet
Hardy Caprio Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Money isn't everything and no, I wanna have a conversation
If money isn't everything then why you wanna have a conversation
It's a liberty, all them nights out doing libertine, oh yeah
I know you got problems, girl, we all got problems

She came 'round French plaits, bonjour (hello)
Hair done, makeup contour (mwah)
Tom Ford, made her want more
But she's too bait, lost cause (bye)
Can't settle down 'til I see an elite
Body makes scenes like Aaliyah Hadid
Foot rub woman and she Vietnamese
I like her but I'm not putting P in, capiche
Can't fly out with the gang 'cause half of these man on probation
Wanna be millionaires, but my niggas ain't got no patience (come on, darg)
My ahk got a strap in the car, but he still wouldn't eat no bacon
What can I say? It's amazing
Cut his girl off to go Afronation (sorry
No snaps allowed, man already told her no snaps allowed
You know what's better than a sports car?
Two tings backseat in a sports bra
Go back to south, yeah, I brought drink, Mo brought the loud
Then we head out on another mission
Dark girl and a light girl, fuck colorism

Yeah, I be around goons
Up in the ends it's true
You know lot of man hate man
But I'll never be a wasteman
Yeah, I be around goons
Up in the ends it's true
You know lot of man hate man
Too bad, 'cause I'll never be a wasteman

Phoned up T
I'm outside your house
Got the word from two of these things that they wanna come south
Told her take the tram
I'll be there when you shout
Anyway, back to the matter at hand
My darg, I'm down if you're down
One more beep from that car again
Me and my nigga won't make it to our event
I'm childish, beef makes me nostalgic and I
And I don't mind getting blood on this outfit
See the girl I just shouted, she tryna be an accountant
Its mad 'cause I coulda been an accountant
Left uni, first month I made thousands
I think we're mentally scarred
It's so we pretend that we aren't
I know we got problems, girl, we all got problems
Them man say they're gangsters, bad boys
They ain't never seen a hand toy, oh gosh
I know we got problems
Girl, we all got problems (Hardy Cap')

Yeah, I be around goons
Up in the ends it's true
You know lot of man hate man
But I'll never be a wasteman
Yeah, I be around goons
Up in the ends it's true




You know lot of man hate man
Too bad, 'cause I'll never be a wasteman

Overall Meaning

In Hardy Caprio's song Short & Sweet, the lyrics talk about the reality of life and how money isn't everything. The song opens by questioning why one would want to have a conversation if money isn't everything. The artist then goes on to describe a girl who he likes and finds attractive, but he's not willing to be with her as he's not interested in sex (I like her but I'm not putting P in, capiche). The song also touches on the problem of friends who can't travel because some of them are on probation or can't be patient enough to work towards being millionaires. Further, the artist talks about the relationship he has with his friend, T, and how they're willing to do anything for each other, even during times of beef.


Overall, the song has a laid-back vibe and tries to showcase the importance of living life to the fullest with genuine people who you can count on. The lyrics also touch upon the importance of balancing life, success, and the ability to enjoy it alongside the right people.
