Mm
Mm
Remember that time I showed up with just panties under my coat? (Under my coat)
High heels, they was knee high, and my legs was grippin' that throat (grippin' that)
You told me this and I quote (this and I)
'Cause we popped pills and you smoked
It's like doin' lines of some coke
You always say it's the best that you ever had in your life
And you always play with it good when we be speedin' off in that Wraith
Just keep coppin' them things that you be coppin' me on the eighth
You the president and I'm Biden
Just slide in 'cause you safe, nigga, third base
I only call you when it's half past five
The only time that I'll be by your side
I only love it when you touch me, not feel me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me, yeah
I only call you when it's half past five
The only time I'd ever call you mine
I only love it when you touch me, not feel me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me, babe
I'ma let you know and keep it simple (know)
Tryna keep it up don't seem so simple
I just fucked two bitches 'fore I saw you
And you gon' have to do it at my tempo
Always tryna send me off to rehab
Drugs started feelin' like it's decaf
I'm just tryna live life for the moment
And all these motherfuckers want a relapse
I only call you when it's half past five
The only time that I'll be by your side
I only love it when you touch me, not feel me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me, yeah
I only call you when it's half past five
The only time I'd ever call you mine
I only love it when you touch me, not feel me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me, babe
Hills have eyes, the hills have eyes
Who are you to judge?
Who are you to judge?
Hide your lies, girl, hide your lies (oh, baby)
Only you to trust, only you (only you, only you)
I only call you when it's half past five
The only time that I'll be by your side
I only love it when you touch me, not feel me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me, yeah
I only call you when it's half past five
The only time I'd ever call you mine
I only love it when you touch me, not feel me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me
When I'm fucked up, that's the real me, babe

In "The Hills," Nicki Minaj and The Weeknd sing about a toxic relationship that is built on drugs, sex, and mutual dependency. The song starts with Minaj recounting a time when she wore only panties under her coat and knee-high heels to meet up with The Weeknd. The Weeknd tells her that their addiction to pills and drugs has them strung out, feeling like lines of coke. They continue to be in a codependent relationship, with The Weeknd being the president, and Minaj being the Biden, and they always play good sex when they're driving off in the Wraith.
Throughout the song, The Weeknd struggles to keep up with the expectations of the relationship while dealing with drug addiction, telling Minaj that he's just trying to live life for the moment. The chorus talks about how The Weeknd only calls Minaj when he's messed up, and he only wants her to touch him, not feel him. This suggests that he only wants her for sex and that he's not interested in an emotional connection.
In the outro, The Weeknd sings in Amharic, an Ethiopian language, "ewdihalehu yene konjo," which means "I love you, beautiful." This phrase provides a glimpse of the vulnerability that lies beneath the character he portrays throughout the song. He is aware of the damage caused by his addiction and codependency, but he feels unable to escape it.
