The song "Gallardo" features two popular Nigerian artists, Runtown and Davido. The song starts with an introduction by Runtown followed by Davido singing about his fancy lifestyle with luxury cars, Gallardo and Murcielago. He mentions how he's a big boy who belongs to the rich circles of Chicago and Monaco, and introduces a girl who catches his attention. The girl, who he refers to as "Anamachi," is incredibly attractive, with features that resemble the singer, Victoria Kimani. The girl's beauty and dance moves are compared to a tsunami and are captivating. The song continues with the singers describing their extravagant lifestyles and showing off their wealth.
Later, Runtown enters and praises a girl who grinds on him, enjoying the way she moves. He promises to treat her like a queen and asks her to showcase her beauty. The song concludes with the repetition of flashy car brands like Lamborghini and Aston Martin while the girls keep dancing to the beat.
The song's lyrics mainly feature a display of wealth and lavish lifestyles, celebrating materialistic pleasures that many young adults in Nigeria aspire to achieve. Contrarily, some argue the song promotes a culture of materialism and encourages a mindset that prioritizes accruing wealth and showing it off.
