JAY Z & Канье Уэст Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh, hello, can I speak to uh, uh,
Yeah you know who you are
Look, you had no idea what ya dealing with
Something on some of this realest shit
Pop champagne yeah I'll give you a sip
'Bout to go dumb how come,
Yeah, that's my bitch
That's my bitch, sh-shorty right there
That's my bitch, that's my bitch

I've been waiting for a long long time
Just to get off and throw my hands up high
And live my life, and live my life
Just to get off and throw my hands up high

I paid for them titties, get your own
It ain't safe in the city, watch the throne
She say I care more about them Basquion's, Basquiats
She learning a new word, it's yacht
Blew the world up as soon as I hit the club with her
Too Short called, told me "I fell in love with her"
Seen by actors, ball players and drug dealers
And some lesbians that never loved niggas
Twisted love story "True Romance"
Mary Magdalene from a pole dance
I'm a freak huh, rock star life
The second girl with us, that's our wife
Hey boys and girls, I got a new riddle
Who's the new old perv that's tryna play second fiddle?
No disrespect, I'm not tryna belittle
But my dick worth money I put Monie in the middle

I've been waiting for a long long time (Where she at? In the middle)
Just to get off and throw my hands up high
And live my life, and live my life
Just to get off and throw my hands up high, high, high, high

Swilling little licks and mixes 'til mornin'
I'm yearnin', ooh, yeah
Could I maybe have another dab of your potion?
Stop motion, ooh, yeah

Go harder than a nigga for a nigga go figure
Told me "keep my own money" if we ever did split up
How can somethin' so gangsta be so pretty in pictures?
Ripped jeans and a blazer and some Louboutin slippers
Uh, Picasso was alive he woulda made her
That's right nigga Mona Lisa can't fade her
I mean Marilyn Monroe, she's quite nice
But why all the pretty icons always all white?
Put some colored girls in the MoMA
Half these broads ain't got nothing on Willona
Don't make me bring Thelma in it
Bring Halle, bring Penélope and Salma in it
Back to my Beyoncés
You deserve three stacks word to Andre
Call Larry Gagosian, you belong in museums
You belong in Vintage clothes crushing the whole building
You belong with niggas who used to be known for dope dealing
You too dope for any of those civilians
Now shoo trigga, stop looking at her tits
Get ya own dog ya heard?
That's my bitch

I've been waiting for a long long time
Just to get off and throw my hands up high




And live my life, and live my life
Just to get off and throw my hands up high, high, high, high

Overall Meaning

The song "That's My Bitch" by Jay Z and Kanye West, also known as The Throne, reflects on the admiration and love they have for the women in their lives. The lyrics celebrate confident and independent women who are unapologetically themselves.


In the first verse, they establish their connection with these women, referring to them as their "bitch." However, it's important to note that in this context, the term is not derogatory but rather a term of endearment, indicating a strong bond and respect.


The lyrics highlight the unique qualities and accomplishments of these women. They paid for their own enhancements, displaying their independence and self-sufficiency. The artists acknowledge that the city can be dangerous, but they provide protection and stability ("watch the throne"). The women they are with are educated and empowered, which is evident as they mention their interest in art, specifically Jean-Michel Basquiat's work. The mention of a "yacht" represents the luxurious lifestyle they lead together.


The second verse delves into their sexual and romantic relationships. The artists describe themselves as rock stars, living a wild and unconventional life. They are unapologetic about their desires and the fact that they share their women with each other. They playfully mention a "new old perv" who wants to be involved but emphasize that they are the primary partners. However, they also emphasize that their sexual relationships are consensual and mutually beneficial, as they acknowledge the women's worth and treat them as equals.


Through their lyrics, Jay Z and Kanye West express their admiration for these women in an unconventional manner. They challenge societal norms by celebrating independent and strong-willed women, as well as by expressing their own desires and relationships. The song portrays a unique and unapologetic perspective on love, sex, and empowerment.
