Art
Tommy Genesis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

i am weak
you pulled a current over me
you see my mouth with them sheets
you know that it aint steep
i am dark
crucifixion in my heart
lay me down
on my knees
and you know that i am art
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag
i am young
and you know i'm put to waste
in a room
with a lock
with the ropes and the chains
say my name
when you know i had no name
when you down for the kill
arch my back for the game
its that art hoe fantasy
she artful
panties, she-she wet tho
look inside her mouth, oh
is she [???]
bet she know yo friend though
bet she know [???]
bet she know [???]
bet she like to fuck it
let it dry
and come back a second time
can we get in on all this hate
can we get in on all this lies
are you Awful born and bred?
are you Awful born and bred?
are you Awful born and bred to give head
to give head
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag
i'm distressed
i'm in a infinite regress
with my hands above my head
and now i cannot feel my chest
i am blessed
you treat me like an art object
on the floor with all my girls
you tryna tell me that you got this
if you playing, have you seen that i aint tryna keep you here
no more famine
no more money
tricked me into [???]
we are children of the internet
we kinky and we're weary
tuck your tie
touch up in her ears
like bitches gone get freaky
cause we hurt
are you tight?
like teach me how to read
bitch we know that you alright
but is you artful or you awful?
is your type a type of way
or is you innocent and thoughtful?
is your type a type of way
or is you innocent and thoughtful?
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag




its that art hoe swag
its that art hoe swag

Overall Meaning

The song "Art" by Tommy Genesis is a bold and intense track that explores themes of power, submission, and identity. Throughout the lyrics, the singer explores her own vulnerability and willingness to submit to her lover, whom she describes as having a current over her. She describes herself as being weak and dark, with a crucifixion in her heart, and recognizes that she is an object of art to her lover. The chorus repeats the phrase "its that art hoe swag", which seems to reference the idea of the "art hoe" movement within youth culture that celebrates a mix of high-brow and low-brow art, fashion, politics, and sexuality. The singer's voice is raw and honest, bringing a deep emotional intensity to the track.
