Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ayy
I'm on my fuck you shit, bitch, I'm done bein' nice (I'm done bein' nice)
And when it come to cuttin' people off, I don't think twice (yeah)
I kept it too real, shit, I kept it too G
And after all I did for bitches this is how they do me? (This is how they do me)
Bitch, I kept your bills paid, you were sick? I paid for surgery (hmm)
I guess my skin not light enough, my dialect not white enough (damn)
Or maybe I'm just not shaped the way to make these niggas give a fuck
But fuck it 'cause I'm black, biggie-biggie black, ass biggy fat
Not a nigga on this earth could take the credit for my stats (yeah)
I'm in Paris sittin' on the terrace sippin' tea with Ferris
And I know they talkin' down, we just too far gone to hear it (ayy, ayy, yeah)
I'm out here cuttin' up, at they neck like button-ups
Everything green like buttercup, my afro my Powerpuff (yeah)
Bitch, I'm out here celebratin', on the bro code, they're steady hatin'
And if a nigga ain't taller than me in my heels, then he could never play me (yeah)
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice (yeah, yeah)
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice, I'm the shit
I'm done with bein' humble 'cause I know that I'm that bitch
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice (yeah)
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice, I'm the shit
I'm done with bein' humble 'cause I know that I'm that bitch
Ayy, y'all some dick-ridin' ass bitches, lil' bro-ass niggas
Y'all the same age, callin' niggas big brothers just so y'all could take pictures (lame)
These hoes can't shake me (yeah), these niggas can't break me
Like a nigga with a big dick, a lotta these hoes can't take me (ah, ah)
You a broke bitch, your pockets been a joke, bitch
And you ain't worth the crack your mama used to smoke, bitch
You got the roaches in your crib sharin' snacks with your kids
Delinquent on your payments, ho, go and post this
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice, I'm mean
I'm sick of bitches actin' player when they really green
I'm sick of niggas comin' to me, actin' like they player
The whole time they wanna cuddle with a bitch and lay up
I'm sick of niggas actin' like they hard when they not (when they not)
They so intimidated 'cause I'm comin' for they spot
Y'all could really miss me with "Congratulations" texts
A lot of rappers mad 'cause I never gave 'em sex
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice (fuck y'all niggas, and you bitches, yeah)
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice, I'm the shit (I'm the shit)
I'm done with bein' humble 'cause I know that I'm that bitch
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice (yeah)
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice, I'm the shit
I'm done with bein' humble 'cause I know that I'm that bitch
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice
Fuck it, bitch, I'm not nice
In "Not Nice," Megan Thee Stallion showcases her confidence and unapologetic attitude in this hard-hitting track. The lyrics show Meg's decision to turn away from being polite and nice to people who take advantage of her kindness. She brings up how she paid for other people's surgeries and bills, yet they still treat her poorly. Although she is aware of how the industry and society tend to favor certain looks and dialects over others, she refuses to let that stop her from celebrating her blackness and unique features. Meg challenges the status quo and the people who try to bring her down, announcing her rise to the top and her refusal to go down without a fight.
Through her lyrics, Meg highlights the societal and industry pressure to fit a certain mold, and her resistance to conforming to those norms. She uses her platform to empower herself and others to embrace their individuality and reject societal expectations. Meg's language is strong and assertive, and she doesn't shy away from expressing how fed up she is with the double standards she faces. The song's catchy chorus further solidifies Meg's stance on being unapologetic and not allowing others to hold her down.
