Post Malone Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

'Cause I can't take it no more
No, you ain't like them bitches
Tell them hoes, "Adios"
And you can drop your panties
Leave them shits at the door
Dior falls on the floor
I swear we been here before

I'm tryna see you from my own perspective
You all in my section tryna come to my session
We runnin' a pressure, you know that we flexin'
We bought all the bottles, we came with the models
Girl, this a confession, I'm not like your exes
I came in from Texas, and now that we textin'
You can fly in whenever, now you undressin'
Panties on the dresser, your hair gettin' messed up
The feelin' we catchin', my love is a blessin'
Made love in that Lexus, made love in that Lexus
I know you remember (I know you remember)

Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause you want me and I want you (ooh-ooh)
Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause baby, it ain't nothing new, no
Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause you want me and I want you (ooh-ooh)
Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause baby, this ain't nothing new, ooh

Oh, you actin' reckless
I told you that I need affection
So let me point you in the right direction
It's so important that you get the message
Yeah
Yeah, I gotta say, gotta say somethin' to you, you, you
I'm on a roll, I'm gonna roll out in that new, new, new
If you wanna do what I wanna do
Well, mm-mm-mm
Well, I guess that it's just deja vu

Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause you want me and I want you (ooh-ooh)
Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause baby, it ain't nothing new, no
Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause you want me and I want you (ooh-ooh)
Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause baby, this ain't nothing new, ooh

Tell me if you want it, baby
'Cause I know I can drive you crazy
I just wanted you to know now
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Show up in that new Mercedes
You already know I'm faded
Girl, I've been thinkin' 'bout you lately
Oh-oh, oh-oh

Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause you want me and I want you (ooh-ooh)
Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause baby, it ain't nothing new, no
Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause you want me and I want you (ooh-ooh)
Tell me is that deja vu? (Ooh-ooh)
'Cause baby, this ain't nothing new, ooh

'Cause I can't take it no more
No, you ain't like them bitches
Tell them hoes, "Adios"
And you can drop your panties
Leave them shits at the door
Dior falls on the floor
I swear we been here before

Overall Meaning

In the song Deja Vu by Post Malone, the lyrics reveal the intense emotions the singer feels for a girl who he experienced something similar with before. This is probably why the song is titled Deja Vu (which means the feeling of experiencing something similar before), as the singer feels like he and the girl have been through what they're experiencing together before. The song has a sensual and seductive tone throughout as Post Malone expresses his desire for this woman. In the first verses, Post Malone tells the girl he wants her to leave her worries behind and leave her panties at the door. The singer then talks about their past experiences together, from luxurious trips to making love in his fancy Lexus car. The singer asks himself several times throughout the song if what he's experiencing is Deja Vu.


The chorus of the song revolves around the repeated phrase, "Tell me is that deja vu?" as Post Malone tries to make sense of his feelings. He goes on to describe how he is on a roll and how "If you wanna do what I wanna do, well, mm-mm-mm, well, I guess that it's just deja vu." The bridge of the song has Post Malone reassuring the girl that he needs her more than ever and that he needs her to get the message. The song ends by repeating the chorus with a slight variation that emphasizes how "baby, this ain't nothing new," emphasizing the idea that whatever they're experiencing, they've likely gone through before.
