Sremmlife
(Mike WiLL Made-It)
Hotties, hotties, hotties
I told 'em, "Getting wasted ain't a hobby"
I was thinkin', "Why me? Why me? Why me?"
Can't you see the others that surround me?
Won't you keep prancin' 'round in a beach towel?
Get a few items, cash tsunami
Yes, we fold the paper, origami
Yeah, breeze through in some how I spent the whammy
Supermodel chick with me, I call her Gwen Stefani
I not goin' back and forth like volley
Don't you see the frozen chains that drape across me?
Always my accounts plus, plus, plus, not minus
How you have a party and not invite us?
Smoke so much, bronchitis, still pullin' all-nighters
When the stars walk in, they could never, neve rmind us
Hotties, hotties, hotties
I told 'em, "Getting wasted ain't a hobby"
I was thinkin', "Why me? Why me? Why me?"
Can't you see the others that surround me?
I don't need to hear about your past trials
Won't you keep prancin' 'round in a beach towel?
Get a few items, cash tsunami
Yes, we fold the paper, origami
Guess I'm Ken 'cause I'm fuckin' with the Barbies (Barbies)
If she ain't a ten, she can't walk inside this party (can't walk inside this party)
Shots, shots, shots, yeah, we'll feel 'em in the mornin' (feel 'em in the mornin')
But we gon' start a riot if you don't keep the liquor flowin' (ah), ah-ah
This for the hotties all over (all over)
Baby don't wanna be sober (be sober)
You broke, she don't wanna be social (be social)
My outfit ten K total (whoa)
Had them hotties back when I was local (local)
'Cause I hit the party, go loco (go loco)
The first time I went to LA (LA)
The bitches was askin' for coco (hotties)
RIP to Kevin Samuels
You gotta be a ten to stand right beside me (beside me)
I'm just settin' the example
I pop up with nothin' but tens in the lobby (hotties, tens)
Shawty rock Prada, know she a devil
One girl ain't enough, so I gotta keep several (keep several)
Every time a nigga go to sleep with the ice on
Wake up feelin' like the hottest nigga ever
Hotties, hotties, hotties
I told 'em, "Getting wasted ain't a hobby"
I was thinkin', "Why me? Why me? Why me?"
Can't you see the others that surround me?
I don't need to hear about your past trials
Won't you keep prancin' 'round in a beach towel?
Get a few items, cash tsunami
Yes, we fold the paper, origami

In the song "Origami" by Rae Sremmurd, the lyrics delve into themes of self-confidence, partying, and the luxurious lifestyle they lead. The chorus emphasizes that getting wasted should not be a primary focus and questions why people are fixated on their past trials when there are more exciting things happening around them. The imagery of prancing around in a beach towel hints at carefree living and enjoying the moment, with references to folding paper like origami, symbolizing the ability to navigate through life's challenges with grace and precision.
The first verse talks about breezing through life despite facing challenges and being surrounded by attractive women. The mention of Gwen Stefani and not going back and forth like in a volleyball game suggests a sense of moving forward confidently and not getting caught up in trivial matters. The frozen chains draped across the artist symbolize their status and success, with a nonchalant attitude towards invitations and partying all night, showcasing their carefree approach to life.
The second verse boasts about the artist's lifestyle, with references to supermodels, parties, and expensive outfits. The lyrics highlight a preference for elite company, with a requirement for women to be a ten to enter their exclusive party. The mention of starting a riot if the liquor stops flowing emphasizes the high-energy and rebellious nature of their gatherings. The tribute to Kevin Samuels and the emphasis on being surrounded by flawless individuals further underlines their confidence and high standards.
The final chorus reiterates the theme of enjoying life to the fullest, cautioning against dwelling on past trials and instead embracing the present. The references to being surrounded by hotties and the lavish lifestyle they lead continue to emphasize the carefree and extravagant nature of their existence. The song closes with a signature mention of the producer Mike WiLL Made-It, bringing the focus back to the music and production that complements the brash and confident lyrics throughout the track. Overall, "Origami" paints a portrait of living unapologetically, embracing opulence, and reveling in the moment without inhibition.
