Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come over here, let me speak to you, baby
Talk to your body and teach you my language
I know you used to these women that's timid
See what I want, then I get up and get it
Hey, I know I get a lil' crazy, hmm
I need somebody to tame me, ayy
He love my lingo, I'm wet like a free throw
I want you to know now, baby, it could go down
I don't wanna talk about it, baby, let's just go now
Way you talking to me, you gon' have to do me (mwah)
Every time you think you're leaving, you running back to me
Can't we just talk?
Can't we just talk?
Talk about where we're goin'
Before we get lost
Let me out first
Can't get what we want without knowin'
I've never felt like this before
I apologize if I'm movin' too far
Can't we just talk?
Can't we just talk?
Figure out where we're growin'
Yeah
Started off right, I can see it in your eyes
I can tell that you're wantin' more
What's been on your mind?
There's no reason we should hide
Tell me somethin' I ain't heard before
Oh, I've been dreamin' 'bout it
And it's you I'm on
So stop thinkin' 'bout it
Can't we just talk?
Can't we just talk?
Talk about where we're goin'
Before we get lost
Let me out first (yeah)
Can't get what we want without knowin'
I've never felt like this before
I apologize if I'm movin' too far
Can't we just talk?
Can't we just talk?
Figure out where we're growin'
Oh, nah
Penthouse view, left some flowers in the room
I'll make sure I leave the door unlocked
Now I'm on the way, swear I won't be late
I'll be there by five o'clock
Oh, you've been dreamin' 'bout it
And I'm what you want
So stop thinkin' 'bout it
Yo, yo
I'm Yo Gotti, I normally don't talk a lot
I open the door and she walkin' out
A couple of things you should figure out (what that?)
You wanna eat steak or eat Waffle House?
I'm grindin' late night for the both of us (I am)
You live by the 'Gram, I don't post enough (not me)
Relationship goals, I don't know enough (goals)
I was in love with the streets growing up (yeah)
I'm callin' her phone, she don't answer
I'm textin' her phone and she blockin' me (block me)
Oh she in her bag, she cocky (cocky)
You don't want her with me, then stop me (stop me)
Her family be trippin', her ex a lame
Her friends be all in my DM (I see 'em)
Her daddy's a police and you already know me
I don't ever wan' see him, I'm Yo Gotti
Can't we just talk? (Oh)
Can't we just talk? (Na-na)
Talk about where we're goin'
Before we get lost
Let me out first
Can't get what we want without knowin'
I've never felt like this before
I apologize if I'm movin' too far
Can't we just talk?
Can't we just talk?
Figure out where we're growin'
Figure out where we're goin'
The song "Talk" by Khalid ft Megan Thee Stallion & Yo Gotti is a romantic ballad that speaks to the human desire for honest communication in a relationship. The song opens with Khalid calling out to his lover, asking her to come over and let him "speak" to her through his physical affection. He acknowledges his tendency to get "a lil' crazy" and says that he needs someone to "tame" him. Megan Thee Stallion then joins in with her rap verse, expressing her desire for their relationship to progress beyond just physical connection. She wants to have a real conversation about where they are headed as a couple. They both harmonize on the chorus, pleading with one another to "just talk" and figure out their future together.
Yo Gotti's verse in the song is a bit of a deviation from the lovey-dovey vibe that Khalid and Megan Thee Stallion had established. He brings in a bit of his signature rap style, talking about his hustling ways and the challenges of dating him. He also references the frustration of dealing with a partner's family and friends who don't approve of the relationship while also expressing his desire to be with her.
Overall, "Talk" is a catchy love song that captures the difficulty of navigating a romantic relationship. It speaks to the desire for clarity and honesty in communication while also acknowledging the challenges of opening oneself up to another person.
