Sway & King Tech Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I lost all control for the rest of the day
Text said you in the lobby
On my way down now, don't want you to wait
You're not my type
You're not the hype
You're not the one that they call Mrs. right
But your Mrs. right cause your right for the night
I'm not tryna, be, the answer to your problems
But you said you need some dick and look I got some dick to solve that
I know
We don't really know each other
I'm another man to you, and you're a girl that I've been fucking
But I'm fine with what we're doing
I have no regrets
It's just so many women
I'm in love with sex
I don't know who you are
And that goes for the rest
But as far as me
Don't forget my name
I know you won't, cause it's all that you screamed
Fucking like this, you would think that I had fame
I'm kinda tired to be honest, when I fuck I want the girl to be the same
But that's not how it is
So while I'm still doing this
Don't forget my name
I'm growing tired of this life
Should be looking for a girl
Should be looking for a wife
I'm getting tired of a new girl every single night
Until it changes, for now
Don't forget my... name
The lyrics of Sway & King Tech's song My Name Is talks about the rapper's casual hook-ups and his lack of interest in a long-term relationship. He starts off the song by confessing that he has no control due to the alcohol - Hennessey - he has consumed. The text he receives prompts him to leave the building to fulfill his sexual desires with a woman he does not see as "Mrs. Right." He acknowledges that while he is not the solution to her problems, he has what she needs - sex - and is okay with their current arrangement. He then admits to being tired of his current lifestyle, wanting to settle down with someone rather than meeting a new girl every night.
The lyrics demonstrate a sense of apathy towards sex and the one-night-stand culture in contemporary society. The rapper is aware of the fleeting nature of his sexual encounters and does not see any purpose in building a meaningful relationship with anyone. He is candid about his views on sex that is purely physical and enjoys the pleasure that comes with it. The use of explicit language in the song further emphasizes the superficiality of human connections in modern times, where sex is a recreational activity rather than an intimate experience.

Hennessy in my body
I had too much Hennessy to drink and it's affecting my actions
I lost all control for the rest of the day
I can't control myself anymore due to the effect of Hennessey
Text said you in the lobby
You texted me that you're waiting for me in the lobby
On my way down now, don't want you to wait
I am on my way to meet you and don't want you to wait for long
You're not my type
You're not the kind of person I am usually interested in
You're not the hype
You're not popular or famous
You're not the one that they call Mrs. right
You may not be the right person for a committed relationship
But your Mrs. right cause your right for the night
But you're the right person for me tonight
You're here with me now cause you and your man always fight
You're here with me now because you and your partner always fight
I'm not tryna, be, the answer to your problems
I am not trying to solve your problems in a meaningful way
But you said you need some dick and look I got some dick to solve that
But you asked for sex and I am providing it
I know
I am aware
We don't really know each other
We are not acquainted or familiar with each other
I'm another man to you, and you're a girl that I've been fucking
To you, I am just another person and to me, you are just someone I am having sex with
But I'm fine with what we're doing
But I am satisfied with our current arrangement
I have no regrets
I don't feel guilty or remorseful about our actions
It's just so many women
I am involved with multiple women
I'm in love with sex
I enjoy having sex very much
I don't know who you are
I don't know your true self or personality
And that goes for the rest
And that statement applies to all the other women I am involved with
Don't forget my name
Remember my name and our encounter tonight
I know you won't, cause it's all that you screamed
I know you won't forget my name because you kept screaming it during our encounter
Fucking like this, you would think that I had fame
The way we are having sex, one would think that I am famous
I'm kinda tired to be honest, when I fuck I want the girl to be the same
To be honest, I am getting tired of this lifestyle and prefer a partner who is more enthusiastic during sex
But that's not how it is
Currently, I am not finding partners who are up to my level of enthusiasm during sex
So while I'm still doing this
So I will continue this lifestyle for now
I'm growing tired of this life
I am getting bored of this lifestyle
Should be looking for a girl
I should be searching for a partner
Should be looking for a wife
I should be looking for a committed partner or a wife
I'm getting tired of a new girl every single night
I am getting tired of being with a new partner every night
Until it changes, for now
Until my situation or preferences change, I will continue my current lifestyle
Don't forget my... name
Remember my name, and our encounter
