Indigo
J. Capri Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just hit the spot
Young Steve Kerr when I call the shots
I can take hits like an Otterbox
I was 18 whipin my car a lot
Pickin up checks like I’m off the clock
I can transform like an auto bot
Drip too hard like a broken faucet
And it’s J Turn since y’all forgot
This the last time that I work for free now
Bout time that I put some heat out
Young fake dudes just don’t impress me
I ain’t gonna stop til Rihanna text me
(Been 2 weeks did you get my message)
Hitting my phone but I lost reception
Get bad girls like I’m in detention
Lost myself but forget the mentions
Not to mention
All I want is bands
Stuff that’s unobtainable
I lost myself again
I’m so unavailable
And all I see is blue
But I’m fly like Indigo
And all I see blue
But I’m fly like (Hold up)
All I want is bands
Stuff that’s unobtainable
I lost myself again
I’m so unavailable
And all I see is blue
But I’m fly like Indigo
Indigo
Yeah, I zoom zoom like Maserati
Pickin up bands for me a hobby
Can’t stop me like I do karate
Get free clout when I hit the party
It’s about time that I get a time piece
Bout time that I get a shawty
I walked in like who can stop me
All in my grill this ain’t hibachi
Y’all dudes worry bout signs and labels
Half y’all dudes just star in fables
Fake online I would hate to be ya
Tennis chains on like its from Serena
I’m makin strides man that’s established
Anything I want man I can have it
Flippin that script like acrobatics
Get to the bread like picnic baskets
All I want is bands
Stuff that’s unobtainable
I lost myself again
I’m so unavailable
And all I see is blue
But I’m fly like Indigo
And all I see blue
But I’m fly like (Hold up)
All I want is bands
Stuff that’s unobtainable
I lost myself again
I’m so unavailable
And all I see is blue




But I’m fly like Indigo
