SHOOT MY SHOT
IDK Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh-huh, uh, uh
Uh-huh, uh, ayy

Twenty-four-seven, I'm a real one
I ain't got no money problems, I ain't got no children
Dodgin' baby mama drama, oop, that's a close one
Ass like a horse, but a face like she wholesome
Uh (uh), Wholefoods shoppin'
And she work out every day, you know them nudes poppin'
Stomach on apple cider vinegar, she do somethin' to me
Good sex, got you thinkin' me and you somethin', thought it was
Ayy, thought it was, thought it was
Four-fives, two tens, that's a dub, that's a dub
Say she just graduated, I'm in love, I'm in love
Say she like to do the lounge, she don't fuck with the clubs
My type, my type, yeah, yeah, my type
Like Biggie, if the head right, I'm there all night
Like Yeezy, when I see it, I'ma hit it on sight
Like Kendrick Lamar, we gon' be al'

When I used to shoot my shot, you were Matrix
Now you reappear, but I hate tricks, look
Nobody likes a fake ho
Bitch, love who I am, not my bankroll
But I'm up, so that is not realistic
Shoot my shot, then I check the ballistics
Shoot my shot, then I'm on to the next one
Shoot my shot, no stress when I'm sextin', uh

Shoot my shot, Steph Curry, it's a swish (swish)
Gucci or Dior, you come explore the way I live (explore)
Bentayga for baddies, put the Chrome Heart on your drip (Chrome)
Add up, mathematics, it's like magic, way it flip (magic)
Make her the tone (who's grown?), brown skin
Just like the Patek on my arm (brown)
Bounce it, you get allowance, icy charm (bounce)
Fountain, I make it rain, a thunderstorm (splash)
Private flash and private nights, nobody knowin' (shh)
Told her she was fuckin' with the one, they was snorin' (snorin')
Sleepin' on me, woke 'em up, alarm (wake up)
Niggas hatin', I don't even know like, "how you doin'?" (hi)
'Fore I got this rich, I wasn't shit, my life was ruined (hey)
Drivin' in my coupe today, my window tinted, eat the plate (woo, woo)
Eat the plate like Anna Mae, do it and she take the bait
Million dollar nigga, put one million in a coded safe
I dress in the coldest way, bando, I just stole your bae

When I used to shoot my shot, you were Matrix
Now you reappear, but I hate tricks, look
Nobody likes a fake ho
Bitch, love who I am, not my bankroll
But I'm up, so that is not realistic
Shoot my shot, then I check the ballistics
Shoot my shot, then I'm on to the next one
Shoot my shot, no stress when I'm sextin', uh

These hoes don't respect my grind (ayy, ayy)
She callin' rain checks, don't respect my time (ayy, ayy)
Callin' rain checks 'cause she know she a dime (ayy, ayy)
I make that bitch bounce, I'm Bank of America (ayy)
I got Sydney and Erica, I got Stacey and Marilyn
I got plenty of hoes, don't make me make no comparison
I should've marriaged these hoes but I'ma calm back down
Got the Maybach, ask her how she gon' act now

When I used to shoot my shot, you were Matrix
Now you reappear, but I hate tricks, look
Nobody likes a fake ho
Bitch, love who I am, not my bankroll
But I'm up, so that is not realistic
Shoot my shot, then I check the ballistics




Shoot my shot, then I'm on to the next one
Shoot my shot, no stress when I'm sextin'

Overall Meaning

The song "SHOOT MY SHOT" by IDK Offset is about the rapper's ideal woman and how he does not let anyone disrupt his lifestyle. He starts off talking about how he is a "real one," meaning he is authentic and honest, and that he does not have any money problems or children. He then mentions that he avoids baby mama drama and admires a woman with a body like a horse but with a wholesome face. He describes her as someone who shops at Whole Foods, works out, and drinks apple cider vinegar. She has a good effect on him, and they have good sex. He also mentions that he loves her despite her just graduating and not being into clubbing.


Offset then moves on to bragging about his lifestyle and riches. He mentions that he is irresistible to women and can switch women without stress. He references basketball player Steph Curry, comparing his shooting success to his success in dating. He mentions cars and luxury brands, as well as the amount of money he has. He also notes that he has many women in his life but chooses to calm back down. The chorus features a repetition of "When I used to shoot my shot, you were Matrix / Now you reappear, but I hate tricks, look / Nobody likes a fake ho / Bitch, love who I am, not my bankroll / But I'm up, so that is not realistic / Shoot my shot, then I check the ballistics / Shoot my shot, then I'm on to the next one / Shoot my shot, no stress when I'm sextin', uh" and reinforces Offset's confidence and his belief that he is not going to let anyone get in his way.


Overall, the song emphasizes the importance of finding someone genuine and remaining true to oneself despite the temptation of wealth, fame, and attention. The rapper represents the perspective of someone who is at the peak of his career and wealth, and his story demonstrates how external factors such as money or status do not matter as much as staying true to oneself.
