You know, know
You know, know
You know, know
You know, know
You know, know
You know, know
And I wanna splurge on my lady
Hundred racks and I got it all cash
And I came out the trap and they look at me crazy
I'm dripping like I'm finna go to the Met
I hit it and she stole my gallery sweats
In the Maybach, she giving me neck
Get out the car, she looking a mess (mess)
Look at me, I am the catch
I ask a bitch if she said yes (yes)
We twenty deep on the island, missing my blood, my dog, my flesh (flesh)
Working my one, just vibing, never let the next man know what's next (no)
Backend come to my nest, lil' bad bitch wanna be a part of my flex (flex)
And she know how to handle when stars in the building
And she fuck with the galaxy, stars in the ceiling
When I was broke, I was looking like millions
That's the feeling you get when you pull up and kill 'em
Came from the bando, baby, now I'm backstage
Rehearsing, pregame, baby, call it foreplay
And you better put that shit on 'cause we 'bout to show your face
I let you ride my wave but you gotta love my campaign
Popping what she take
Hope this night be great
Tell 'em it's okay
We won't wear no shades
I wanna see everything, baby, yes, I do wanna see everything
Hit that shit one time now she fan 'bout my dick like a fanpage
She take notes, she don't cry, everything she do is fire
Hair so long down to her thigh
Heard she grouped out, that's a lie
And she know how to handle when stars in the building
And she fuck with the galaxy, stars in the ceiling
When I was broke, I was looking like millions
That's the feeling you get when you pull up and kill 'em
When you killing 'em
Oh, when you killing 'em
Oh, when you killing 'em
Oh, when you killing 'em
Oh, when you killing 'em
Oh, when you killing 'em
Oh, when you killing 'em
Oh, when you killing 'em
Love on me
Love on me
Love on me
Love on me, baby
Love on me
Love on me
Love on me
Love on me, baby

Line by Line Meaning
You know, know
The listener is already aware of something significant
This the feeling I get when I cop the Mercedes
Purchasing a Mercedes gives me a feeling of luxury and excitement
And I wanna splurge on my lady
I want to spend lavishly on my partner
Hundred racks and I got it all cash
I have one hundred thousand dollars in cash
And I came out the trap and they look at me crazy
People are astonished by my success after coming from a difficult situation
I'm dripping like I'm finna go to the Met
I'm wearing extravagant and stylish outfits like I'm attending the Met Gala
I hit it and she stole my gallery sweats
After being intimate, she took my expensive designer sweatpants
In the Maybach, she giving me neck
She is providing me with oral pleasure in the Maybach car
Get out the car, she looking a mess (mess)
When she exits the car, her appearance is disheveled
Look at me, I am the catch
I am an exceptional and desirable person
I ask a bitch if she said yes (yes)
I inquire if a woman has agreed to something
We twenty deep on the island, missing my blood, my dog, my flesh (flesh)
A group of twenty people are on an island, and I feel their absence deeply
Working my one, just vibing, never let the next man know what's next (no)
I'm focused on my own progress, enjoying the moment, and keeping my future plans private
Backend come to my nest, lil' bad bitch wanna be a part of my flex (flex)
Financial opportunities come to me, and a desirable woman wants to be associated with my success
And she know how to handle when stars in the building
She knows how to act when famous people are present
And she fuck with the galaxy, stars in the ceiling
She likes to associate with luxurious and extravagant things, like having starry lights in the car ceiling
When I was broke, I was looking like millions
Even when I had no money, I carried myself with confidence and appeared wealthy
That's the feeling you get when you pull up and kill 'em
It's a gratifying feeling when you arrive at a place and impress everyone
Came from the bando, baby, now I'm backstage
I originated from a run-down place, but now I'm behind the scenes of a successful event
Rehearsing, pregame, baby, call it foreplay
Preparing and warming up before an event can be seen as a form of foreplay
And you better put that shit on 'cause we 'bout to show your face
You should wear something impressive because we are going to attract attention and make you look good
I let you ride my wave but you gotta love my campaign
I allowed you to benefit from my success, but you should also support and appreciate my endeavors
Popping what she take
She consumes drugs or alcohol
Hope this night be great
I have high expectations for this evening
Tell 'em it's okay
Assure them that everything is fine
We won't wear no shades
We will not hide or cover our true selves
I wanna see everything, baby, yes, I do wanna see everything
I desire to experience and witness everything in life
Hit that shit one time now she fan 'bout my dick like a fanpage
After engaging in sexual activity once, she becomes enthusiastic and obsessed with my genitals
She take notes, she don't cry, everything she do is fire
She pays attention and learns from her experiences, remaining strong and impressive in her actions
Hair so long down to her thigh
Her hair is extremely long, reaching all the way down to her thighs
Heard she grouped out, that's a lie
I heard rumors that she engaged in promiscuous behavior, but it's not true
Love on me
Give your love to me
Love on me, baby
Baby, shower me with your love
