I Wanna Be With You
Nicki Minaj ft. Rick Ross & Future Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It ain't nothin' for me to ball on you (hustlers)
It ain't nothin' for me to spoil you (another one)
If I adore you (We The Best Music)
I'ma give you that theory (DJ Khaled)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you

I wanna be where the commas'll be
But I need a hood nigga with the llama degree
Get the limited edition, Audemars, it could be
In a pivotal position, gotta pardon the fee
'Cause he bought a couple bags and he sent a couple whips
And he took a couple trips, then it's dinner and a Myx
And he's never with no other chick, frontin' like he's slick
'Cause it's levels to this shit, and she could never be Nic
Niggas be fallin' in love with this pussy
Mean stew chicken, and bake him a couple of cookies
Dick on veteran, ain't fuckin' with rookies
Saw the "High School" video now he wanna play hooky
Baddest bitch, I'm the catalyst
Ain't never been done, bitch I added this
Nah, I ain't gotta shoot, I got mad assists
'Bout to put a couple pieces on the mannequin
Got a big billboard out in Madison
At the Trump, and you bitches at the Radisson
Got the .22 on me, and it's thin
Shoot movies, Jennifer Aniston

You decide you'll be mine you can come inside
You the type that can make me prioritize
Hittin' my phone, it's alright
Hittin' my phone, it's alright
You reply, what's your sign? You're a Gemini
You deny that you're shy, maybe we should slide?
I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, baby

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ballin' on you too easy, splurgin' on you too easy
Buyin' purses too easy, payin' bills too easy
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
Ballin' on you too easy, splurgin' on you too easy
Buyin' cars too easy, poppin' bottles too easy
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
Everything you do is brand new (uh) (Maybach Music)

Make that bad bitch my shorty, hit the club, throw forty
My hat bent like uh, my chain drip like water
Car paint like tar, I'ma sex her harder
Bitch let go my hand gave you the keys soon as I bought it
Vroom-vroom, oh yeah, big bank, I'm too real
My money right, and them boys you with'll be dead broke, two years
Check it, look here, you ain't even know, big deal
On site, act right, I shop hard, pack light
That ho shit gets you no play, all I talk is cocaine
White tee and these rope chains, blow the roof back, Kurt Cobain
Phantom cost like four dollar, flo' seats, hoes holla
Underground with this pimp shit, so smoke one for Port Arthur

Ballin' on you too easy, splurgin' on you too easy
Buyin' purses too easy, payin' bills too easy
I wanna be with you (let's ride), I wanna be with you (let's ride)
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
Ballin' on you too easy, splurgin' on you too easy
Buyin' cars too easy, poppin' bottles too easy
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
Everything you do is brand new
(That's that new, new, new, new)

"Suffering From Success" (I wanna be with you)
You witnessin' greatness (I wanna be with you)
I'm the best that ever did it (I wanna be with you)
I wanna be with you (I wanna be with you, baby)

I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you




I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you, I wanna be with you

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of the song "It ain't nothin' for me to ball on you, It ain't nothin' for me to spoil you" starts the song with Nicki Minaj boasting about her wealth and how it is effortless for her to shower her loved ones with luxurious gifts. She further sings in a later verse "Ballin' on you too easy, splurgin' on you too easy, buyin' purses too easy, payin' bills too easy" reiterating how she likes to spend lavishly on her loved ones.


Nicki details the kind of man she desires in her life in the verse sung by Future "I need a hood nigga with the llama degree, Get the limited edition, Audemars, it could be, In a pivotal position, gotta pardon the fee." She craves someone streetwise with a campus degree and is capable of buying her the best luxuries money can offer. In contrast, in Rick Ross's verse, he mentions his dissatisfaction with unnecessary spending and highlights that if he were to give his gifts, then they would be meaningful purchases.


Throughout the song, Nicki plays with language well to suggest clever wordplay to promote her own brand with lyrics like โ€œBaddest b****, Iโ€™m the catalyst, Ainโ€™t never been done, b**** I added thisโ€. The chorus speaks about how she wants to be with someone and buy them luxurious gifts, and in the final outro verse, she reminds listeners how successful she is and how she wants to be with someone who shares the same level of success.
