Six Feet Under
The Weeknd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She don't get emotional
Kill off all her feelings
That's why she ain't approachable
She know her pussy got a fan base (no, no, no)
A couple niggas with a suitcase
Suit and tie niggas who play roleplay
When it comes to money she play no games
She lick it up just like a candy (candy)
She wanna make 'em leave their family (family)
She trying to live a life so fancy (fancy)
She wanna pull up in a Bentley
She ain't got time for lovin' (lovin')
Louis Vuitton her husband (husband)
She rather die in lustin' (lustin')
She rather die in the club, 'till she
Six feet under she gon' get that fucking paper (that fucking paper)
Six feet under she gon' get that fucking paper (that fucking paper)
Six feet under she gon' get that fucking paper
You know how she get down, pop it for a check now
Six feet under, six
Six feet under (that fuckin' paper)
Six feet under, six
Six feet under (get that fuckin' paper)
Six feet under she gon' kill me for that paper
Not the type to fuck around, go and turn that ass around
She don't depend on anybody
Know just what to do with her own body
Countin' all that money like a hobby (no, no)
She don't give a fuck about nobody (oh, no)
And she got her whole crew poppin'
And she bend it over like she got no back bone
Got a couple niggas blingin' up a trap phone
She don't need nobody waiting back home, she got it
She lick it up just like a candy (candy)
She wanna make 'em leave their family (family)
She trying to live a life so fancy (fancy)
She wanna pull up in a Bentley
She ain't got time for lovin' (lovin')
Louis Vuitton her husband (husband)
She rather die in lustin' (lustin')
She rather die in the club, 'till she
Six feet under she gon' get that fucking paper (that fucking paper)
Six feet under she gon' get that fucking paper (that fucking paper)
Six feet under she gon' get that fucking paper
You know how she get down, pop it for a check now
Six feet under, six
Six feet under (that fuckin' paper)
Six feet under, six
Six feet under (get that fuckin' paper)
Six feet under she gon' kill me for that paper
Not the type to fuck around, go and turn that ass around
Go and turn that ass around
Oh murder, oh murder
Go and turn that ass around
Oh murder, oh murder
Real love's hard to find (real love's hard to find)
So she don't waste her time (she don't waste her time)
So she don't waste her time, oh
You ain't gon' catch her cryin' (you ain't gon' catch her cryin')
She ain't gon' lose her mind (oh)
She ain't gon' lose her mind, 'till she
Six feet under she gon' kill me for that paper (till she)
Six feet under she gon' kill me for that paper (till she)
Six feet under she gon' kill me for the paper
Not the type to fuck around, go and turn that ass around
The lyrics of "Six Feet Under" by The Weeknd describe a woman who is focused solely on making money and living a luxurious lifestyle, sacrificing emotional attachments and personal connections along the way. The first verse highlights this as the singer talks about how the woman doesn't get emotional and kills off all her feelings, making her unapproachable to others. She knows that her sexuality has its appeal and has attracted men who offer her money and gifts, which she gladly accepts to maintain her high-end lifestyle. She's not interested in love or a committed relationship, instead preferring to die in the club, making quick cash by entertaining men. The chorus reinforces her desire to get rich and her ruthless dedication to her goals, with her being willing to kill for her money.
The second verse of the song describes how the woman is completely independent and doesn't rely on anyone to succeed. She is in full control of her body and knows how to use it to her advantage, earning money through her seductive dance moves, and has a team of people working for her. She doesn't care about anyone else and is only concerned with making money and living the high life.
In summary, "Six Feet Under" paints a picture of a woman who is willing to do anything to make money and live a luxury lifestyle, even at the expense of personal relationships and connections.
