Dat Way
Rich the Kid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I mean, you know this not a diss record
I don't sneak diss
This just for the record, just facts
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder If I can come take some of yours
When I go get a new Bentley
We got the key to the city
You niggas ain't heard, you niggas ain't heard
Lil Yachty brought back us some milli's
It's time to go splurge, it's time to go splurge
Uh, yeah, dat way
Pick up the phone and call Kanye
Uh, yeah, dat way
Told him put The Huncho on the runway
Uh, yeah, dat way
The plug pull up on me anyday
He told me pull up to his mansion alone
And don't come in with all that gun play
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder if I could come take some of yours
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder if I could come take some of yours
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder if I could come take some of yours
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder if I could come take some of yours
Uh, yeah, dat way
Pick up the phone and call Kanye
Uh, yeah, dat way
Told him put the huncho on the runway
Uh, yeah, dat way
Your artists be taking my swag
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder if I could come take some of yours
Double park, double park, parallel park
Then I pick up that Backwood and spark
So many artist can't even say where
But they picked up the flow, I don't know where to start
Shopping cart when I go pick up my narcs
So many animals like Noah's Arc
Hop on the chart and I pop me a Percocet
Pour me a fo' befo' it even depart
I land in Cali, my plug pull up on me with pints of the Act
I don't want no Wockhardt
Make your hoe ride along with me
Got unfinished business, got me feeling like Kevin Hart
Back up, that camera pop out when I park
I got that Draco, come out after dark
Niggas going to act like they 'bout that life
Till you pull up on them
See that it's not in their heart
This nigga just think he the coolest
A groupie he putting on a act like he shooting a movie
Kicked them with fashion
I'm talking my dab and they thought it was Newton
Then you must be stupid
Trick that bitch make her trap for me like Lucy
We got the keys to the street, I gotta use it
Pull up in my mansion, the crib is extended
The bitches, my nigga, I'm feeling like Pookie
Dat way, dab at the runway
Got me running to the M&M's, I'm thinking it's a rat race
Ya main bitch on Backpage
I pull up with a 'Yonce Lemonade
Migos performing up at the Barclays
J's test the dope, said it was parkay
I been trapping, it's a long day
We the ones that brought these niggas to the game
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder If I can come take some of yours
When I go get a new Bentley
I just want to double park it on the curb
We got the key to the city
You niggas ain't heard, you niggas ain't heard?
Lil Yachty brought back us some milli's
It's time to go splurge, it's time to go splurge
Uh, yeah, dat way
Pick up the phone and call Kanye
Uh, yeah, dat way
Told him put The Huncho on the runway
Uh, yeah, dat way
Your artists be taking my swag
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder if I could come take some of yours
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder if I could come take some of yours

Uh, yeah, dat way
Told him put The Huncho on the runway
Uh, yeah, dat way
Your artists be taking my swag
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder if I could come take some of yours
Dat way
My bitch is bad and boujee
Calabasas, I was trapping in Coogi
Blue cheese drop a 50 in Gucci
Wipe my red bottoms down like I'm Boosie
Dat way
We could make a movie like a matinee
In the kitchen with the white like mayonnaise
Pull up on the plug like dat way
This for the culture, stay with the bird like a vulture
Play with my niggas, put you on a poster
Dat way
Maserati matte black, getting head on a good day
When I go get the new Bentley
I just wanna flex on my bitch, she a bird
Yeah, dat way
Pick up the phone and call Tunechi
Your artists be taking my swag
I wonder If I can come take some of yours
When I go get a new Bentley
I just want to double park it on the curb
We got the key to the city
You niggas ain't heard, you niggas ain't heard
Lil Yachty brought back us some milli's
It's time to go splurge, it's time to go splurge
Uh, yeah, dat way
Pick up the phone and call Kanye
Uh, yeah, dat way
Told him put The Huncho on the runway
Uh, yeah, dat way
Your artist be taking my swag
Your artist be taking my swag

And don't come in with all that gun play
Don't bring weapons to his house

Got unfinished business, got me feeling like Kevin Hart
I have things to do like a busy celebrity
Back up, that camera pop out when I park
People are always watching me
I got that Draco, come out after dark
I have a gun for protection
Niggas going to act like they 'bout that life
Some people pretend to be tough
Till you pull up on them
Until you confront them
See that it's not in their heart
They are not really tough or brave
This nigga just think he the coolest
This person thinks they are better than me
A groupie he putting on a act like he shooting a movie
Someone is pretending to be famous
Kicked them with fashion
I'm stylish and trendy
I'm talking my dab and they thought it was Newton
My dance moves confuse some people
Then you must be stupid
If you can't understand me, you're dumb
Trick that bitch make her trap for me like Lucy
I'm manipulating someone into working for me
We got the keys to the street, I gotta use it
We have a lot of power and influence
Pull up in my mansion, the crib is extended
I have a really big house

I'm happy and satisfied with my life
Dat way, dab at the runway
I'm still confident and moving forward with purpose
Got me running to the M&M's, I'm thinking it's a rat race
I'm always busy and in a hurry
Ya main bitch on Backpage
I'm sleeping with someone's girlfriend for money
I pull up with a 'Yonce Lemonade
I arrive in a fancy car
Migos performing up at the Barclays
My friends are successful too
J's test the dope, said it was parkay
My drugs are of good quality
I been trapping, it's a long day
I've been selling drugs all day
We the ones that brought these niggas to the game
We helped other people become successful
My bitch is bad and boujee
My girlfriend is attractive and classy
Calabasas, I was trapping in Coogi
I was selling drugs in a rich neighborhood
Blue cheese drop a 50 in Gucci
I spent a lot of money on designer clothes
Wipe my red bottoms down like I'm Boosie
I'm careful to keep my shoes clean
We could make a movie like a matinee
Our lives are interesting enough to make a film about
In the kitchen with the white like mayonnaise
I'm cooking and preparing drugs
Pull up on the plug like dat way
I'm meeting my drug supplier
This for the culture, stay with the bird like a vulture
This is all part of the hip-hop culture
Play with my niggas, put you on a poster
Don't mess with my friends or there will be consequences
Maserati matte black, getting head on a good day
I'm enjoying the finer things in life
When I go get the new Bentley
When I buy a new luxury car
I just wanna flex on my bitch, she a bird
I want to impress my girlfriend
Yeah, dat way
I'm still confident and moving forward with purpose
Pick up the phone and call Tunechi
