Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ayo
Told him shoot his shot like his main opp
Now I'm fallin' for him like a raindrop
D-D-D-D-Done that, run that
Yo, Patty, give me the gun back
When he say cock it back, gun off safety
I be on that calm flex, dem gyal hasty
Gyal dem want me fazed, but dem gyal dem can't face me
I-I ain't really tryna let him in, in
But if he a G, it's a win, win
Can't play the queen before the king, king
Bitch, I'm the Pinkprint, tell him to kiss the pink ring
Fallin' for you
I think I'm fallin' for you
Fallin' for you
I think I'm fallin' for you
Fallin' for you
I think I'm, I think I'm
I think I'm fallin' for you
They like 'em, they fightin'
They comin', they tuggin'
I kill 'em, I beat 'em
I see them, they duckin'
Got pitbulls
We feed 'em, it's nothin'
They never been official
They never been the issue
Plus they know that my body T, my middle initial
I let him kiss the real
He know my looks could kill
These bitches gotta shake they ass to show sex appeal
Fallin' for you
I think I'm fallin' for you
Fallin' for you
I think I'm fallin' for you
Fallin' for you
Picture that, picture me givin' bitches slack
Picture pretendin' I ain't give all these bitches piggyback
Picture usin' me and the Barbz and never givin' back
Soon as they think they see the light, I turn the picture black
Ain't at the mall but between me and them, it's a gap
Picture sayin' that you the queen and knowin' it's a fact
Picture my head givin' wet and wavy, strawberry daq'
Yo, matter of fact, let me take that back before they steal that
Picture me openin' the vault, bitch, I seal that
Picture them disses stickin' like ribs, bitches feel that
Picture me tellin' bitches, "Catch it," outer field that
Picture me not tellin' my lil' niggas drill that
Picture you endin' up under the sea where the dread at
Picture not listenin' when I said you would dread that
I mean locked, ho, you-you's a chop ho
I'm number one, y'all go argue over top four
Clean sweep, you gettin' mopped, ho
Picture me dressed in black, they callin' me Miss Mary Mack
You get the picture, my niggas airin' that
Like-like Married To The Mob, bitch, I'm married to the MAC
Picture it not gettin' scary, it's airier than Max
Fallin' for you
I think I'm fallin' for you
Fallin' for you
I think I'm fallin' for you
Fallin' for you
I think I'm, I think I'm
I think I'm fallin' for you
Ayo
You gotta catch me while I care
I ain't callin' for you
Watchin' my every move
You thought I was fallin' for you?
In the song "Fallin 4 U" by Nicki Minaj, the lyrics delve into themes of attraction and power dynamics in relationships. The first paragraph sets the scene with lines like "Told him shoot his shot like his main opp" and "Now I'm fallin' for him like a raindrop." These lyrics allude to the idea of being drawn to someone unexpectedly, despite initially resisting their advances. The lines "When he say cock it back, gun off safety" and "Thinkin' 'bout you lately, JoJo and K-Ci" hint at the sexual tension and anticipation the singer is feeling.
The second paragraph presents a sense of confidence and dominance. The repeated line "Fallin' for you" showcases the realization of potentially falling for the person in question. The lyrics then shift to a more aggressive tone, with lines like "They like 'em, they fightin'" and "I kill 'em, I beat 'em." These lines can be interpreted as the singer asserting their power and influence over others, and dismissing those who try to challenge or compete with them. The mention of pitbulls can be seen as a metaphor for their fierce protectiveness and loyalty to those who matter to them.
In the third paragraph, the lyrics take a slightly different direction, focusing on self-assertion and the importance of authenticity. The line "Picture that, picture me giving bitches slack" suggests a refusal to tolerate deception or fake behavior. The lyrics emphasize the singer's confidence and the recognition of their own value, as seen in lines like "Picture usin' me and the bars and never givin' back" and "Pictures sayin' that you the queen and knowin' it's a fact." The mention of the vault and sealing it refers to protecting their secrets and not allowing others to exploit them.
The final paragraph reiterates the theme of power and control, with lines like "Picture me dressed in black, they callin' me Miss Mary Mack" and "Li-Like Married To The Mob, bitch, I'm married to the MAC." These lyrics highlight the singer's sense of authority and their awareness of their own influence. The lyrics end with a defiant and dismissive tone, suggesting a lack of interest in pursuing a relationship with the person in question, stating "I ain't callin' for you, Watchin' my every move, You thought I was fallin' for you?"
Overall, the lyrics in "Fallin 4 U" showcase a complex mix of attraction, power, and self-assurance. The song reflects the contradictions and complexities of relationships, as well as the importance of staying true to oneself in the face of manipulation or deception.

I mean locked, ho, you-you's a chop ho
I mean, you're trapped, you're a fake and irrelevant woman
I'm number one, y'all go argue over top four
I'm the best, while others can argue over the remaining positions
Clean, sweet, you ogettin' mopped, ho
I'm flawless and charming, while you're getting obliterated
Picture me dressed in black, they callin' me Miss Mary Mack
Imagine me wearing black attire, and they refer to me as Miss Mary Mack
You get the picture, my niggas airin' that
You understand the situation, my friends are openly expressing their support
Li-Like Married To The Mob, bitch, I'm married to the MAC
Similar to being associated with the Mob, I'm fully committed to my firearm
Picture it not gettin' scary, it's airy, where the MACs?
Imagine it not becoming intimidating or fearful, it feels light and airy, where are the firearms?
You gotta catch me while I care
You have to seize the opportunity while I still have feelings
I ain't callin' for you
I'm not desperately reaching out to you
Watchin' my every move
Observing and analyzing everything I do
You thought I was fallin' for you?
Did you really think I was developing feelings for you?
