Ordinary Monday lunch with Alicia
That's when I seen ya
Posted up, pluggin' your parking meter
Matte black Beamer
Really hope you're no rapper or a singer
I ain't one to talk, but these
Industry dudes only want one thing, yeah
Said "You ain't gon' believe I've

Been single for so long"
It's true, been married to this money, boy
It's hard to steer me wrong, no no

And it's gonna be hard to convince me
That you ain't like the ones
Who have dissed me
But if I was your girl, we'd be perfect
I'ma take a chance and let you be my man
‘Cause, baby

You're worth it, you're worth it (ooh)
You make it all worth it, baby
You make it all worth it, baby
You're worth it (bae) , you're worth it
You make it all worth it, baby
You make it all worth it, baby
You make it all worth it, worth it, yeah

We the best we the best, we the best
We the best in the west (yeah, we the best)
We the best we the best, we the best
We the best in the west

Three years later
Getting comfy and you're treating me bad
We don't even share morning
Showers on the weekends
Used to battle it out, NBA 2K
Now we fight every day, we fight every day
Look back in my mind, I'm like "Let him go"
Then you half-smile, I'm a sucker for dimples
No, I ain't got the time for
The stressin' in my life
Been married to this money
Boy you only live one time

And it's gonna be hard to convince me
That you could really do what you promised me
If you make a change, we'd be perfect
So I'ma take the chance and let you be my man
'Cause, baby

You're worth it, you're worth it (ooh)
You make it all worth it, baby
You make it all worth it, baby
You're worth it (bae) , you're worth it

We the best in the text to your ex
Say it's done, I'm the one, he a mess
When we sex, make me cum, bite my neck
Back seat, couch, bed triple threat
Windows down, I'm playing this
All I can make is hit's, I can't miss
Come and kick it with me
We can shop downtown
Plus it's 4 Seasons suites when
We lay it down
Shit, I just might let you meet my friends
You play around, but it's me in the end
'Cause you know

Overall Meaning

In the first verse of the song, Iamsu! recalls an encounter with someone he is interested in. He sees them on an ordinary Monday lunch with Alicia and notices their sleek matte black Beamer while they plug their parking meter. Iamsu! expresses a hope that this person is not just another rapper or singer, as he has found that many individuals in the music industry are only after one thing. The person mentions that they have been single for a long time, but Iamsu! compares his dedication to his money as being like a marriage, making it difficult for anyone to steer him wrong.

The chorus emphasizes the person's worthiness and how they make everything worthwhile for Iamsu! If he was in a relationship with them, they would be perfect together, and he decides to take a chance and let them be his partner.

In the second verse, Iamsu! describes how three years have passed, and the person he was interested in has become comfortable with him but also treats him poorly. They no longer share intimate moments like morning showers on the weekends, and their relationship has gone from playfully battling each other in NBA 2K to constantly fighting. Despite contemplating leaving the relationship, Iamsu! admits he is drawn to the person's half-smile and dimples. He acknowledges that he doesn't have time for stress in his life and remains married to his money because one only lives once.

The chorus is repeated, emphasizing the person's worth and how they make everything worthwhile for Iamsu! He recognizes that it would be hard to convince him that the person can truly change, but if they do, they could be perfect together.

In the final verse, Iamsu! expresses his commitment and willingness to make time for the person. He mentions being there for them, grinding and riding for them, even though he admits there may be times he lies to them. He brags about being the best choice for them and how their sexual encounters are satisfying. He suggests doing activities together, like shopping downtown and staying in luxurious suites at the 4 Seasons. Despite playing around, Iamsu! admits that in the end, it is him they'll come back to, because they know he is worth it.

The song concludes with a repetition of the chorus and a reminder that they are the best in the west, suggesting that they are a power couple in their region.
