Her
The Code Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

See I was thinking about
All the little things that you might think about
Like starting bouts
With silly goofy niggas acting out
Because you ain't about
Giving up the nappy dugout
Which is funny 'cause
Everybody tryna eat you out
But I just wanna ask you out so
How does 2 sound?
Emotional rollercoaster
My head spinning 'round
'Cause when I see you these the words I pray
Come out of my mouth
They won't come out of my mouth

And that's when things go south
'Cause usually my favorite remedy
A pound of the loud
The thought of green
And money trees
To partially
Drown you out
But as it turns out
I always end the night with a pout

I dream of happy memories
And bringing you to my town
The beauty of divinity
From seeing you in a gown
Envisioning a destiny
In which I stop every frown
'Cause when it comes to you and me girl
We could never be down
Unless we talking pleasantries
In which we might fool around

Hmmm, I really think I'm gonna miss her
Hmmm, I really think I'm gonna miss her
Hmmm, I really think I'm gonna miss her
Her




Her

Overall Meaning

In "Her," The Code reflects on his feelings and thoughts about a certain person whom he deeply cares about. He contemplates the small details that occupy his mind, such as the people who try to pursue her romantically. Despite their advances, he just wants to ask her out and spend time with her. The artist acknowledges the emotional rollercoaster he experiences whenever he sees her, with his thoughts spinning around. He prays that the right words will come out when he speaks to her but struggles to express himself authentically.


When things don't go as planned, as indicated by the phrase "things go south," the artist turns to coping mechanisms such as marijuana and escaping into his thoughts of money and material comfort. However, these distractions only leave him feeling bitter and dissatisfied at the end of the night.


The artist dreams of creating happy memories with this person and bringing her into his life. He sees her as a divine and beautiful presence, envisioning a future where he can bring her joy and happiness. However, he acknowledges that their connection may only be superficial, as indicated by the mention of fooling around and engaging in less meaningful interactions.


In the chorus, The Code expresses his realization that he will miss her. The repetition of "Her" emphasizes the significance and impact she has on him. It implies that he values her deeply and recognizes the void that would be left in his life if she were no longer present.
