Friday
Ricky Tyler Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Running up the night show
Pulling up with side hoes
They gon’ have to tip toe
Shawty might be loco
All she want is coco
Sniff it in the condo
She would drive to Hillbrow
Bitches at my front door
7 at the front door
They would like to drink more
Drinking ‘til we drowning (Drown, drowning)
We just freestyling (Freestyling)
You know it’s Friday (Fri-Friday)
That mean I’m wilding
Drinking ‘til we drowning (Drown, drowning)
We just freestyling (Freestyling)
You know it’s Friday (Fri-Friday)
That mean I’m wilding (When I drop in a Jeep)
I have my own idea
Shawtys gon’ shop ‘til we fill up all the whips
Pull up no more sitting on the fence, no
No one from the East side on the bench, no
What’s that in the moonlight I see?
It’s starting to feel like my trip
Wilding with my liquor lights, I wanna meet
Trying to find some peace of mind, follow the beat
We live this abyss of life
Shawty told me the first time she spent the night
You just have to pick a side
Go and see, c'mon you need the chemist right?
It’s Friday night, it’s cold as shit
Got the camo jacket with the fucking fur in it
Feel like I’m a shaman with my third eyelid
Weekend like a winner, so it’s just one day missed
Drinking ‘til we drowning (Drown, drowning)
We just freestyling (Freestyling)
You know it’s Friday (Fri-Friday)
That mean I’m wilding
Drinking ‘til we drowning (Drown, drowning)
We just freestyling (Freestyling)
You know it’s Friday (Fri-Friday)
That mean I’m wilding (When I drop in a Jeep)
Thinking I just went pro
Crazy with the combo
Shit I’m kicking with the ice flow
A nigga flyer than the airport
Lotta nights I’m a fool
Money’s always missing at the fund, a couple of dollars in the pool
Now my names in the news
Started like a rookie, now these women give me tooshy in the booth
Now my life’s on the move
Say that I’mma die a fool
But I never die indoors
Please don’t ever break my flow
Nothing ever changed in us
Nothing ever fails, we up
Playing with an empty cup
Lot of sleep I don’t need when I'm…
When I drop in a Jeep
Drinking ‘til we drowning
(Lot of sleep I don’t need when I…)(Freestyling)
You know it’s Friday
(When I drop in a Jeep)
Drinking ‘til we drowning
(Lot of sleep I don’t need when I…)(Freestyling)
You know it’s Friday
(When I drop in a Jeep)
Drinking ‘til we drowning
(Lot of sleep I don’t need when I…)(Freestyling)
You know it’s Friday
(When I drop in a Jeep)
Drinking ‘til we drowning
(Lot of sleep I don’t need when I…)(Freestyling)
You know it’s Friday
(When I drop in a Jeep)
The lyrics to Ricky Tyler's song "Friday" is a celebration of living life on the edge and indulging in wild behavior at the end of the week. The lyrics begin with the singer feeling the pressure even when he's ice cold, meaning that he has a lot to deal with on his mind, no matter how relaxed he might seem on the outside. The setting of the song takes place during a night out, with the singer pulling up with side hoes, and warning them that they will have to tip-toe. The singer's girl might be loco, or crazy, and all she wants is coco, which is most likely a reference to cocaine, which she sniffs in the condo. The girl is so out of control that she would even drive to Hillbrow, which is reputed to be one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Johannesburg, South Africa. There are bitches, or women, at the front door, and a party of seven at the front door who would like to drink more. They all drink until they are drowning, and freestyle while doing it. The singer, as well as his company, is wilding because it's Friday, a day of release and revelry.
The second verse of the song is about the singer's idea of spending money generously, and how Friday is the day to let loose. They can shop until they fill up all the whips, pull up without any hesitation, and make sure that no one from the East side is on the bench. The singer fantasizes about a trip, feeling like a shaman with his third eyelid, and meets his desire to find some peace of mind. He seems to be going through a lot in life, even describing his life as an abyss, but he finds comfort in his female friend who gave him unconditional love from the first time she spent the night with him. The singer started like a rookie but now, these women give him cushion in the booth, and he is now on the move. The song ends with the singer never wanting to break his flow and drinking until he drowns.

A girl told me about the first time she spent the night with someone
You just have to pick a side
You have to choose a path and commit to it
Go and see, c'mon you need the chemist right?
Let's go see a drug dealer because we need more drugs
It’s Friday night, it’s cold as shit
It's Friday night and it's freezing cold
Got the camo jacket with the fucking fur in it
I'm wearing a camo jacket with fur
Feel like I’m a shaman with my third eyelid
I feel like a shaman, connected to a higher power
Weekend like a winner, so it’s just one day missed
The weekend feels like a win, even though we're missing one day
Thinking I just went pro
I'm feeling like a pro, like I've achieved something great
Crazy with the combo
I'm feeling crazy and wild with my drinking and drug use
Shit I’m kicking with the ice flow
I'm enjoying the high from the drugs
A nigga flyer than the airport
I'm feeling great and confident
Lotta nights I’m a fool
I've made a lot of mistakes in the past
Money’s always missing at the fund, a couple of dollars in the pool
I'm always missing money, even though I have some saved up
Now my names in the news
Now I'm famous
Started like a rookie, now these women give me tooshy in the booth
I started out as a beginner, but now women are throwing themselves at me
Say that I’mma die a fool
People say that I'm going to die young and foolish
But I never die indoors
Despite the risks, I don't stay home and safe
Please don’t ever break my flow
Please don't interrupt me or my momentum
Nothing ever changed in us
Our lifestyle and values haven't changed
Nothing ever fails, we up
We're always succeeding and winning
Playing with an empty cup
We're living life without any sense of direction or purpose
Lot of sleep I don’t need when I'm...
I don't need much sleep when I'm partying and drinking
When I drop in a Jeep
When I arrive in my Jeep
