Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just want to take you higher
Throw your hands up in the sky
Let's set this party off right
Players, put yo' pinky rings up to the moon
Girls, what y'all trying to do?
24 karat magic in the air
Uh, look out!
Pop pop, it's show time (Show time)
Show time (Show time)
Guess who's back again?
Oh they don't know? (Go on tell 'em)
Oh they don't know? (Go on tell 'em)
I bet they know soon as we walk in (Showin' up)
Wearing Cuban links (ya)
Designer minks (ya)
Inglewood's finest shoes (Whoop, whoop)
Don't look too hard
Might hurt ya'self
Known to give the color red the blues
Ooh shit, I'm a dangerous man with some money in my pocket
(Keep up)
So many pretty girls around me and they waking up the rocket
(Keep up)
Why you mad? Fix ya face
Ain't my fault y'all be jocking
(Keep up)
Players only, come on
Put your pinky rings up to the moon
Girls, what y'all trying to do?
24 karat magic in the air
Head to toe so player
Uh, look out!
Second verse for the hustlas (hustlas)
Gangstas (gangstas)
Bad bitches and ya ugly ass friends (Haha)
Can I preach? (Uh oh) Can I preach? (Uh oh)
I gotta show 'em how a pimp get it in
First, take your sip (sip), do your dip (dip)
Spend your money like money ain't shit (Whoop, whoop)
We too fresh
Got to blame it on Jesus
Hashtag blessed
They ain't ready for me
I'm a dangerous man with some money in my pocket
(Keep up)
So many pretty girls around me and they waking up the rocket
(Keep up)
Why you mad? Fix ya face
Ain't my fault y'all be jocking
(Keep up)
Players only, come on
Put your pinky rings up to the moon

The lyrics to Henry Gallagher's song '24K Magic' describe a night out at a party where the goal is to have a good time and leave all worries behind. The artist urges the listeners to throw their hands up in the sky and join him in setting off the party right. 'Players' are invited to put their pinky rings up to the moon while 'girls' are asked what they are trying to do. The party is in full swing with 24 karat magic in the air, and everyone is head to toe so player that it's hard not to notice.
The lyrics also focus on the artist's success and how he has become a 'dangerous man' with money in his pocket. He is surrounded by pretty girls and not afraid to let everyone know. The artist seems to have a confrontational attitude, asking why people are mad and telling them to fix their faces since it's not his fault that they are feeling jealous. The song is all about living life to the fullest, having fun without worrying about the outcome, and letting your hair down.
