Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah (mm)
Yeah (hmm), yeah (hmm), yeah (hmm), yeah (hmm)
Yeah, workin' that stick out the back of that truck, get feisty (feisty)
Tatted they face like he Gucci Mane, nigga, went "Brr" and I made 'em icy (I made 'em icy)
I give a fuck who like me (who like me)Go walk it off, my nigga go hikin' (go hikin')
Purple Trackhawk with the yellow Brembos, I'm catchin' them plays like a Viking
Ridin' down Old Nat, lookin' for pussy, man, one in the head on my rifle
This whore is a gnat, yeah she gon' set him up
She tryna show that she like me (show that she like me)
My boy down the road cut a nigga neck, I swear he can knock down a Titan
I'm all in they mouth, chewin' me up, I made a new flavor with Trident (Trident)
All the presidents I love dead, what a nigga mean, vote Joe Biden?
I stand on a briefcase, big ol' AK, nigga, we don't do no hidin'
This ho real bad, her nigga a lame, so lil' shawty got a A-minus
Come fuck with a check, Verizon
Have her best friend to tell her no, Bryson
That pussy got power, a bison (bison)
Someone get a towel and wipe 'em (wipe 'em)
I'm stackin' these racks, Eiffel (Eiffel)
Lil' shawty, she nasty, triflin' (triflin')
Yeah, workin' that stick out the back of that truck, get feisty (feisty)
Tatted they face like he Gucci Mane, nigga, went "Brr" and I made 'em icy (I made 'em icy)
I give a fuck who like me (who like me)
Go walk it off, my nigga go hikin' (go hikin')
Purple Trackhawk with the yellow Brembos, I'm catchin' them plays like a Viking
Ridin' down Old Nat, lookin' for pussy, man, one in the head on my rifle
This whore is a gnat, yeah she gon' set him up
She tryna show that she like me (show that she like me)
I'm all in they mouth, chewin' me up, I made a new flavor with Trident (Trident)
Say they fuckin' with me, a nigga like, "Who? When? Where?"
Say that they fucked me, a nigga like, "Who? When? Where?"
Say they gon' touch me, nigga, I triple dog dare
Pop out up on they street and I swear it's all stares
I got a bitch on the block, she livin' that block life, throwin' up gang signs (gang, gang)
Holdin' my guns, she thinkin' it's fun, I'm finna put the ho on mainline (bang, bang)
Everybody cross my gang, you wanna be gang, you gotta get tatted (tatted)
Dropped out of school, but he a fool, when it come to mathematics (big bags)
Gave him the swag, now he hooked, nigga a crack addict (a crack addict)
Nigga want smoke, then what's up? Take a crack at it (yeah)
Yeah, workin' that stick out the back of that truck, get feisty (feisty)
Tatted they face like he Gucci Mane, nigga, went "Brr" and I made 'em icy (I made 'em icy)
I give a fuck who like me (who like me)

In "Viking," SahBabii showcases a blend of bravado and street realism, painting a vivid picture of his lifestyle and mindset. The lyrics open with a confident repetition of "Yeah," which sets the tone of self-assurance before diving into themes of aggression and territoriality. The mention of "workinโ that stick out the back of that truck" suggests a life that involves handling weaponry, possibly alluding to the dangers and feistiness that come with street life. His tattoos serve as markers of identity and allegiance, much like Gucci Maneโs noted in the lyric, hinting at a deeper narrative of loyalty and authenticity. SahBabii emphasizes his indifference to public opinion ("I give a fuck who like me"), presenting a persona that is unbothered by external judgments, further solidifying his position in this harsh reality of the urban landscape.
The imagery of โcatchin' them plays like a Vikingโ creatively connects the artistโs hustle to that of a Viking warrior โ a figure associated with dominance and conquest. The Viking metaphor amplifies his bravado while also hinting at a sense of adventure or risk-taking inherent in his lifestyle. The mention of his vehicle, the "Purple Trackhawk with the yellow Brembos," serves not only to signify wealth and status but also acts as a symbol of his agile movement through lifeโs challenges. Moreover, "Ridinโ down Old Nat, lookinโ for pussy" reveals a juxtaposition between the violent undertones of the rifle mention and the natural instincts of dominance in sexual relationships. SahBabiiโs reference to relationships is laced with irony and danger, illustrating complexities in interactions with women and the potential for betrayal, evident in lines about women who may "set him up."
The thematic complexity continues as he reflects on his stance on authority, particularly when he alludes to his views on political figures, hinting at a level of disillusionment with traditional systems ("All the presidents I love dead"). This line implies a sense of rebellion, resonating with the common sentiment of distrust towards political establishments in marginalized communities. His imagery of standing on a briefcase with a weapon underscores a stark juxtaposition of business and violence, presenting a life of hustling where the stakes are high. The clever wordplay here, alongside the mention of a woman's worth compared with that of her partner, adds layers of social commentary on relationships within his world, characterizing women as figures of power and potential leverage within a male-dominated space.
As the verse progresses, SahBabii shifts to a more personal tone when addressing doubters who claim to challenge him. The repetition of "Who? When? Where?" serves to dismiss adversaries while amplifying a confrontational bravado. He portrays the lifestyle of living on the edge, with friends and associates deeply embedded in the street culture, evidenced by statements about loyalty among his "gang." His references to gang life and the calculation behind street smarts ("Dropped out of school, but he a fool, when it come to mathematics") speak to a dichotomy where education and practical wisdom coexist. Throughout the song, SahBabii weaves in vivid metaphors and street narratives that reflect the harsh realities of his environment while also exuding a playful confidence that thrives on the brink of chaos, demonstrating a mastery of both lyrical and thematic depth in his storytelling.
