No Control
Kennie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Friday night
You know I stay ready
High heels on
This jewelry you got me
I'm laced up
Head to toe
Fully faded
Nowhere to go
Just you, me, and these neon lights

It's all in the way you move
It's all in the way you move
It's all in the way you move
It's all in the way you move
When we lose control

We got no control
We got no control
We got no control
For once that's good to know
That we got no control

Shea Butter Baby
Like I'm Ari Lennox
I want you to work this out
Like this is your business
Profession
It's just you, me, and these neon lights

Fresh to death, straight casket
Sharp as shit, straight tragic
No pleasantries, we past this
I'll eat you alive, Carole Baskin
Or maybe Dahmer
Fuck it, if you really wanna
Skip all the double entendres
And come over
And beat it up like I stole something

You, me, and these neon lights
You, me, and these neon lights
You, me, and these neon lights

It's all in the way you move
It's all in the way you move
It's all in the way you move
It's all in the way you move
When we lose control

We got no control
We got no control
We got no control
For once that's good to know
That we got no control

Holding my breath
Counting to three
I'm only good
When I wanna be
No need to rush
Cuz I wanna feel it
Holding me down
It's just you, me, and these neon lights

Ooh daddy
Ooh daddy
Hurt it
Pull that shit loose, daddy
Ooh daddy
You daddy
Only do this for you
Go get the money, go get the bag
Go get the money, go get the bag
Go set the camera like it's only fans
Go get the money yeah, yeah

Gimme gifts from Japan
Taking trips to Milan
Heels sky high scratching bathroom walls
Might give this nigga brain in the candy paint job
Damn, i'm shameless
Seeing stars seeing stars, gazing
Play your part, play your part




Saying I don't know what my name is
It's just you, me, and these neon lights

Overall Meaning

In "No Control," Kennie describes a night with her lover that's all about stylish excess and unbridled passion. She's fully decked out in expensive jewelry and high heels, but the only thing guiding her movements is her desire for this person. She revels in the way they make her feel as they lose control and indulge in whatever they want. As the song progresses, the lustful tone ramps up even more, with Kennie describing how she wants to please her partner and give them everything they desire.


The lyrics of "No Control" reflect the mood of the track itself, which is confident, sensual, and bold. The production is sparse, consisting primarily of a simple guitar riff and snapping percussion. This minimalistic approach allows Kennie's voice to take center stage, and she delivers a performance that's sultry and forceful. The chorus is catchy and anthemic, with Kennie repeating the phrase "We got no control" as if it's a mantra.
