Partynextdoor Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You's a vegan but you going ham
Lotta niggas, lotta niggas
Lotta niggas wanna be like me
But you know the difference
You know they're different, baby
Only been with you for me
Let me know when you're downtown
Ring-a-ding, ding
Let me know if it's a ting
Out here with your Brampton tings
Fucking all your Pickering tings
She said she wanna come to Toronto
She wanna come to the 6 side
She know that's the best side
Caribana, Soca dancer, Machel Montano
Black red bandana or a trip planner
She know who to check when she come around
She know who to check whenever she comes in town
She knows what I have to calm her down
She knows it's not something to run from now
Don't run, don't
Listen, all I wanna do is smoke with you
Sit down, have dinner with the folks with you
Touch road, hit Frings then Bloke with you
Don't par with a broke boy, I'll do the most
Would you tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Since when are you all grown up
Since when do you know more
Since when do you not come home
I heard you got too much on your shoulders
Your mother just called my phone up
Sounds like your party is over
Girl, you know I heard a lot of things, don't joke with me
Girl, you know I
And I know you're down, I know you're still down
Ring-a-ding, ding
Let me know if it's a ting
Out here with your Brampton ting
Fucking all your Pickering tings
She said she wanna come to Toronto
She wanna come to the 6 side
She know that's the best side
Caribana, calypso dancer, Bajan accent
Blue yellow bandana, oh, trip planner
She know who to check when she come around
She know who to check whenever she comes in town
She knows what I have to calm her down
She knows it's not something to run from now
Don't run
Be safe, be safe, don't run baby
Don't run, baby
I know you're scared
Inception is everything you're wanting
Just trust me
Just trust me, just trust me
Just trust me, just trust me
I'll make it easy
Just trust me, girl
PARTYNEXTDOOR's song "Don't Run" explores a romantic relationship that the artist is in. The first few lines of the song are referencing a woman he's dating, who is a vegan but also "going ham." This can be interpreted as her being committed to her veganism while still indulging in other vices. He then goes on to discuss how many men want to be like him, but there's a clear difference between him and them that his romantic partner can see. This indicates that the artist is secure in his unique qualities and understands that his significant other is attracted to him for the right reasons. He emphasizes his commitment to her by saying that they've only been together with one another.
The song then shifts to a discussion about the woman wanting to visit Toronto and the "6 side," which is a reference to the area code in Toronto. PARTY emphasizes that he knows the best spots and that he's the right person to show her around. He emphasizes that he's not just anybody in her life, and that he's the one to calm her down when she's having trouble on her shoulders. PARTY reassures her by stating that she doesn't need to run away from her problems, and that she should trust him to make it easy.
