Ghetto Biotch!
What does life mean to me?
Cars clothes an a lot of jewelry.
What does life mean to me?
A fine ghetto bitch wit' a big ass booty.
What does life mean to me?
Drinking, pimping an a whole lot of weed.
What does life mean to me?
Every things right what we said, please believe me
The song "What He Does" by Lil Wayne featuring Nikki reflects the common stereotypes of the hip-hop world revolving around money, power, and fame. The lyrics show how the rapper often measures his self-worth based on materialistic possessions and the most desirable women. The phrase "What does life mean to me?" is rhetorical and emphasizes the superficiality of the rapper's goals and desires. In the first line of the song, Lil Wayne states that he values cars, clothes, and jewelry, which are symbols of wealth and status. The second line is even more objectifying, referring to a "fine ghetto bitch wit' a big ass booty," reducing women to mere sexual objects.
The third line highlights the rapper's indulgence in drugs and his active participation in pimping, which is the exploitation of women for financial gain. In the final line, Lil Wayne tries to convince the audience that everything he and Nikki said is right, urging them to believe him. The repetition of the question and different answers indicates that the rapper is searching for some kind of meaning in his life but can only find temporary pleasure in material gain and sexual conquest.

โI just tell her don't expect the worst
She say she don't wanna be stuck standing next to a nerd
I say I don't wanna be stuck standing next to a curb
She said she don't wanna, I say shut up you pressing my nerves
She say, who you telling shut up, then she get up
Start packing her shit up, start calling her sister
Sister dosen't pick up, the tension start to pick up
She crying, she got hiccups, I'm tellin her to cheer up
I'm laying down she tell me sit up, I sit up
She push me down I sit up
She push me down I get up
Then I act like ima hit her
But I'm a better nigga
She can't find a better nigga, nahโ
