Brazil
Iggy Azalea Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Scalez, it's a Scalez track
Ayy, tell 'em run it back
AJ ruin everything, he in here

Paid for this body and none of it's cheap
I heard your song, now I'm goin' to sleep
Boys in my yard, but this ain't from Kelis
Look at my cars, you see nothin' on lease
Look, I'm showin' my cards how I play with a King
Heard they was sleepin', I'm breakin' the dream
Closin' a deal while you makin' a meme
Superstar status, I stay in the Hills
Light hundred thousand to play in some heels
Festival season, I'm out in Brazil
See that I'm hot and I ain't got no chill, uh, yeah
Mercedes the Benz and I park on the curb
Your man wanna pitch, but I'm tossin' a curve
The way that I live, you might call it absurd

I got it
All I got is these racks in my pocket
Stick my tongue out, I'm feelin' erotic
Hear my accent, he think I'm exotic
And still, I got it
Hands all over my body
Hands all up in his wallet
Baddest bitch up in the party
For real, I got it
All I got is these racks in my pocket
Stick my tongue out, I'm feelin' erotic
Hear my accent, he think I'm exotic
And still, I got it
Hands all over my body
Hands all up in his wallet
Baddest bitch up in the party

I'm showin' my cards how I play with a king
Heard they was sleepin', I'm breakin' the dream
Closin' a deal while you makin' a meme
Superstar status, I stay in the Hills
Light hundred thousand to play in some heels
Festival season, I'm out in Brazil
Festival season, I'm out in Brazil

I'm a fantasy, you a tragedy
And I'm rich, that's some shit that you will never be
This a movie, I'm somethin' they wanna see
Had a baby, bounced back like I'm twenty-three
I had millions and millions at twenty-three
Think it's funny that someone could fuck with me
Talkin' down the whole time they look up to me
Y'all my children, I skipped out on custody
Take my time, ain't no rushin' me, haters in love with me
Faces is ugly, bitches is mad
I worked at a store, I still get to the bag
A cover star magazine, look at my ass, ooh (ass, ass)
I'm the front page
Take a shot, wait, it's a pump fake
Checkers or chess?
Don't play with the best or, bitch, you end up a mess (uh)

I got it
All I got is these racks in my pocket
Stick my tongue out, I'm feelin' erotic
Hear my accent, he think I'm exotic
And still, I got it
Hands all over my body
Hands all up in his wallet
Baddest bitch up in the party
For real, I got it
All I got is these racks in my pocket
Stick my tongue out, I'm feelin' erotic
Hear my accent, he think I'm exotic
And still, I got it
Hands all over my body
Hands all up in his wallet
Baddest bitch up in the party

I'm showin' my cards how I play with a king
Heard they was sleepin', I'm breakin' the dream
Closin' a deal while you makin' a meme
Superstar status, I stay in the Hills
Light hundred thousand to play in some heels
Festival season, I'm out in Brazil
Festival season, I'm out in Brazil

I got it
I got it
Festival season, I'm out in Brazil
Brazil
Out in Brazil




I got it
Festival season, I'm out in Brazil

Overall Meaning

"I'm showin' my cards how I play with a King, Heard they was sleepin', I'm breakin' the dream, Closin' a deal while you makin' a meme, Superstar status, I stay in the Hills" is a brash and confident opening to this song, Brazil by Iggy Azalea. Iggy Azalea bares all her riches and talks about her glamorous lifestyle. She claims to be a "fantasy" while belittling her critics as "tragedy." She's the "baddest bitch up in the party," and her wealth is reflected in expensive cars that she doesn't lease, luxurious shoes that rake in at least a hundred thousand, and a body paid for with "none of it's cheap."


Throughout the song, Iggy talks about her success and power. She's making deals while her competitors are busy making memes. The chorus is an anthem of self-confidence, with Iggy flaunting her sexuality and accent that makes her stand out. The fact that she bounces back after having a baby-like a 23-year-old and having millions at that age-continues to prove her power over the rest.


The song establishes Iggy's confidence in her status as a superstar, which she's attained by working hard for her wealth. She calls out her haters, who look up to her, and boasts of the magazine covers she's graced. Brazil is ultimately about living life on her terms, and her wealth is a testament that her strategies worked.


Worth noting that "Hands all up in his wallet" asserts the idea of keeping men at arm-length, only allowing them for pleasures, as Iggy constantly refers to "he" in the lyrics. She also alludes herself to chess, the royal game mimics the lyrics "Talking down the whole time they look up to me" means she's challenging her rivals while staying above them while fighting.
