Jessie Reyez 6LACK Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hi, my name is 6LACK
And sometimes people call me 6-LACK
I don't mind because they stubborn
And my bank account is looking mighty fine, ayy
We can skip the wine and dine
Go straight for the wind and grind
She wanna cum, I can make her happy, fuck trying
Sometimes, I get messy, you can be my biggest secret
I ain't sliding if you're wit' him
Baby, you gon' have to leave him
I got morals on Sundays, sometimes on Wednesdays
Really, it depends, but

You, you're in love with somebody else
Maybe I could offer some help
(Maybe I could offer some help)
Get over them by gettin' under me
But you might O.D. if you get too much of me
Might O.D. if you get too much of me
O.D. if you get too much of me, uh, yeah

Hi, my name is not important
I'm not from here, I'm imported
I drink liquor like it's water
Hope my liver can afford it
I've been lyin' here with
I've been lyin' here, I'll be lyin' here
I'm under the covers like
What happened here ain't nothing sacred
Shit that got me fucked up is
I know that dude just saw me naked
Nursing a broken heart
But who'd've thought it'd take me ages?
I ended up here 'cause my girl said, "Fake it 'til you make it"

You, you're in love with somebody else
(You're in love with somebody else)
Maybe I could offer some help
(Maybe I could offer some help)
Get over them by gettin' under me, uh
(You gon' see, yeah)

Hi, my name is, fuck it 'cause my name is not important
I'm not from here, I'm imported
Can't you tell? My voice distorted
You important, I'm important
Make a movie, let's record it
Came a long way from a Honda
Tryna fuck you in some Porsches, baby

You, you're in love with somebody else
(You're in love with somebody else)
Maybe I could offer some help
(Maybe I could offer some help)
He brought you down, now climb on top of me
You gon' see, yeah

You, you're in love with somebody else
Maybe I could offer some help
Get over them by gettin' under me, uh
But you might O.D. if you get too much of me
Might O.D. if you get too much of me
O.D. if you get too much of me, yeah
But you might O.D. if you get too much of me

O.D. if you get too much of me




Might O.D. if you get too much of me
O.D. if you get too much of me

The lyrics describe 6LACK's allure and confidence, with lines like "I got morals on Sundays, sometimes on Wednesdays, really, it depends."

There is a sense of danger and excitement in this idea, reflected in the repetition of "Might O.D. if you get too much of me." The bridge addresses the notion of fame and importance, emphasizing that both Jessie and 6LACK are in fact important despite their unimportant names. The final chorus brings everything full circle, with both voices offering to help the other get over someone else.


In summary, "Imported" is a song about two people who are drawn to each other but struggling with their own emotions and past relationships. It explores the idea of using someone to get over someone else, but acknowledges the potential consequences of doing so.
