I know you need me baby

Baby your husband ain't gon be home

In my low 57 Chevy drop
But mia when I go pick you up

Wet dream fantasy become reality
No lie so when you slide let the ride set a side
Adore me by the the orgies multiply
Tellin me gettin me sayin it with your eyes
Makin it x-rated drinkin Allizey and gettin high

Baby doll
Come and take a ride with me
And let me show you
What it feels like to be a women
When you feel the pain
Yell my mothafuckin name
Feel the trust as I bust nuts
All in you guts
And let you see what you would be
If it wasn't for me
Cause I'm the one
That made you feel like a lady
And now you're beggin me
To give you a baby
You want me to fuck you
Want me to suck you
But I'm not gonna stick you
Don't want to dick you

But the bitch got a man
When that fool goes to work
Time to fuck that's the plan

Give you stick in
Til that shit get's finger lickin
Now just imagine when the orgasms kick in

[Chorus]
[Slush "The Villain"]
To all them girls that used to diss me

Callin my papi straight jockin me and
Sayin Slush would you past the cock to me
But I'ma thug with no love
Baby I'm true to the city
Just bein able to say hi to me now

You want to be my girl so I can screw ya

If you want to be my hunny

You know that I'm terrific
Incredible and what I got for you
Is edible, taxin and climaxin
Til we drop
But it feels so good baby doll
Don't ever stop

[Chorus]

Creep up to that window [window]
Hit them skins baby [baby]
Get them drawls down [down]
Get you doggie style [style]




Make you bark like a bitch

Overall Meaning

The song "I'll Be There" by Hollow features the rappers Slush "The Villain" and Knightowl. The lyrics describe their desire to provide thug love to a woman who needs it, even if she has a husband who isn't around. Slush "The Villain" details his plan to pick the woman up in his low Chevy and fulfill her wet dreams, while Knightowl promises to be there through it all as her booty call. He wants to show her what it feels like to be a woman and make her feel like a lady. Both rappers talk about giving the woman their all, physically and emotionally, in a no-strings-attached relationship.


The rappers' lyrics ooze with the macho posturing and sexual bravado that are typical of rap culture. However, the song also portrays a toxic relationship dynamic where the woman is treated as a sexual object and is only needed when the man desires her. The woman is portrayed as having no agency and is reduced to a sexual fantasy. The message of the song is quite problematic and reinforces gender stereotypes of men as sexually aggressive and women as passive objects of desire.
