Papi
Kofi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tiptop no tiptoe I'm a stepper
Aye

You got away with that shit in the past, but that shit ain't flying no more
I got like 48 songs in the stash, a nigga ain't trying no more
I fucked it once and I called her a groupie a nigga ain't lying no more
They caught my big homie doing the dash, my nigga ain't driving no more
Some niggas think they can play with the kid, A nigga ain't playing no more
I gave em the drop and I gave em the sticks, my niggas ain't saying no more
All of my YG's they worshiping thugs, my niggas ain't praying no more
We used to pay to get up in the club, my niggas ain't paying no more

She wanna fuck with the kid cause I'm popping, I told the shordie get off me
Colombian shordie she calling me Papi, name in her mouth like its toffee
Shordie she built like a horse of course, but she ride my shit like a jocky
I'm doing 320K in a Porsche, I'm feeling like no one can stop me

You got away with that shit in the past, but that shit ain't flying no more
I got like 48 songs in the stash, a nigga ain't trying no more
I fucked it once and I called her a groupie a nigga ain't lying no more
They caught my big homie doing the dash, my nigga ain't driving no more
Some niggas think they can play with the kid, A nigga ain't playing no more
I gave em the drop and I gave em the sticks, my niggas ain't saying no more
All of my YG's they worshiping thugs, my niggas ain't praying no more
We used to pay to get up in the club, my niggas ain't paying no more

That boy was a shit talker, now he can't even talk
That nigga say he a walker, now he can't even walk
How you say you're from the ends when I ain't seen you on the block
I been riding with them shottas I don't even need a Glock

On the block with the gang all day
We been throwing long shots, no treys
In the SRT no brakes
3 bills on the dash no plates
Ballin out, no court, no dates
Glo Drew no face no case
I fuck with shordie cause shordie a dime, but she gotta know her place

You got away with that shit in the past, but that shit ain't flying no more
I got like 48 songs in the stash, a nigga ain't trying no more
I fucked it once and I called her a groupie a nigga ain't lying no more
They caught my big homie doing the dash, my nigga ain't driving no more
Some niggas think they can play with the kid, A nigga ain't playing no more
I gave em the drop and I gave em the sticks, my niggas ain't saying no more




All of my YG's they worshiping thugs, my niggas ain't praying no more
We used to pay to get up in the club, my niggas ain't paying no more

Overall Meaning

In Kofi's song "Papi", the rapper speaks with confidence and authority about his current success and the struggles that he faced before reaching his current status. He states that he is not willing to tolerate certain behaviors and disrespect anymore. The first verse makes it clear that he is done with people trying to take advantage of him or his team, insisting that he has moved on to bigger and better things. He also touches on the topic of loyalty amongst his peers, stating that his crew is not in the business of snitching. In the second verse, Kofi addresses those who talk a big game but can't back it up, calling out their phoniness. He also mentions the company he keeps, who he rides with and that he does not need a gun to hold his own.


The chorus serves as an emphasis and reminder that Kofi has moved up in the world and is not the same guy that people may have known him as; success has brought about changes in his life that he is not willing to backslide on.
