He states that her beauty demands a bodyguard due to its finesse, and offers to be her significant other, calling himself her "only tenderhonnie". The lines "Let me beam you up like Scottie, I got Whitney so just enough for everybody in this party, girl" indirectly talks about his wealth and how he can provide for her and those around her. The hook, "Da da da da da" is an ode to the sound of the bass in the song that complements the lyrics.


In the second verse, Wayne expresses his love for the woman and how he would do anything for her, even if it puts him at financial risk. He humorously uses comparisons, such as calling himself Benjamin Franklin's twin, and stating he's as cool as the producer Dr. Dre. Wayne further emphasizes his ability to provide for the woman and his willingness to indulge in a threesome if it brings her happiness. The song's catchy beat and bassline add to the playfulness of the lyrics and slurs.

Ive been a lil Wayne fan since 5th grade. I always admired the fact that he did not allow anything to box him into a specific genre. GOATED

Joey Arnold

Wayne is on my Mount Rushmore. 100%

The Blasted Bomber

Such a simple song but has so much emotion into it. Simply amazing. This is a song for so many occasions. This song had a deep meaning even to myself that nobody would ever understand. Thank you Weezy ❤️

Preston Brewer

Probably on of his best songs. I don't understand why he gets all of the hate he does. He is one of the few people to make it big in the rap scene. Also he changed the rap game into a very good scene. He did a lot to benefit all of the up & coming rap stars. Respect what he has done for the rap game.
