Lil Nas X Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They in they feelings
They don't want they spot
Nigga i fill in
I feel it coming
I'm running to get my thrill in
I'm sonning these pussy niggas
I'm coming to make a killing
I'm a problem, niggas know dat
Hop out grab the black mac no kodak
Rock star like jack black, i'm playing like mick jagg
No playing get rich fast then sit back
Huh soak it all in
I spoke it now it's happening
They hope it all end
Niggas rather hate than get in they own bag it's
Funny because i always put money over that mad
Shit tell me tell me What that fuck u gaining from it
Hating while i'm in the club and it's raining money
That shit is draining you paining your fucking brain
And you straining yourself out tryna get all that clout off my name

They in they feelings
They don't want they spot
Nigga i fill in
I feel it coming
I'm running to get my thrill in
I'm sonning these pussy niggas
I'm coming to make a killing
They in they feelings
They don't want they spot
Nigga i fill in
I feel it coming
I'm running to get my thrill in




I'm sonning these pussy niggas
I'm coming to make a killing
