Ain't givin' no kiss, I'm givin' her dick
You starin' too long like you seen a ghost
So whip out your camera, take you a pic
So when you get home, get back on your phone
Zoom in on the flick and look at the drip
She ask me to pay for the ass to get lifted
I told her, "I'm better off gettin' you a Lyft"
Think I'ma put all my trust in a ho with no benefits?
Tell her go jump off a cliff
I go two-thirty, a cup of that purple
Put ice in my drink just to keep it on chill (lean)
Fuck all that talk, you ain't been in the field (nah)
Open my bank account, it give me chills (chills)
Takeoff

Overall Meaning

In Migos's song "Avalanche," the lyrics describe the trio's rise to fame and wealth, in contrast to their humble beginnings. The song reflects on their parents' sacrifices and their own hustle to achieve success, with a focus on their current lavish lifestyles. The chorus speaks to the Migos' determination to beat the odds and overcome obstacles, while also acknowledging their flaws and desire for material possessions. The verses showcase their signature catchy flow and rap about their wealth, fame, and the women they encounter.


The song also features references to past members of the group, such as Takeoff's lyrics in the final verse. Takeoff's verse references the purple drink, "lean," which has been a popular staple in trap music and is thought to have originated in Houston, Texas. Additionally, he uses wordplay to suggest that his bank account is so large, it gives him "chills."
