Bandana wrapped-wrapped 'round your head
The bandana wrapped 'round your head
For niggas that's scared

Ain't nobody trill, man, I'm takin' they spot, yeah

Only trill niggas I know
Only-only-only trill niggas I know
Only-only-only trill niggas I know

Ladies order up the champagne, a whole lot of it
Painkillers, ain't got backpain, know you gotta love it
Tens out in NY, they in my hallways, I got a lobby of 'em
Up and Down with Chase, Monday nights, we made a hobby of it
Still down with the same dogs, man, they never loved us
Gave my niggas all gold chains to remind me of it
We're still holdin' that old thing, tryna rob me of it
One time for the trill bitches that'll let me touch it
I'm papi though, they get it poppin' with me when I'm out in public
Flyin' through, I got a young 'Yonce with a Iggy on her
Me and Metro do the same drugs, got a lot of it
All these cups and damn, all these hoes, these niggas up to somethin'
Touch down out in H-Town, there it might get ugly
It's trill niggas, where it's niggas, a whole army of 'em
I run the check up, I'm a hot nigga, don't tell my 'countant on me
Free Rowdy Rowdy, free Bobby Bobby, them the Shmurda homies

We just want to be stoners lately, I've been on on on

Backstroke to my children room
Maybach in the living room
I spent racks on these tennis shoes
Niggas know what I'm finna do
Time for me to put the mink up
Forgiattos on a Brinks truck
My favorite rapper drove a pink truck
I do shit that you dreamed of
I was born with a mean mug
I was born with sum' nappy hair
Drinkin' breast milk out a lean cup
Tity Boi's my alias
Real niggas my radius
Trill niggas on the song with me
If she bad as hell I'll pay the babysitter
In a black Mercedes with her
Doin' about 180 with her
I was born a hustler, paraphernalia in my baby pictures
Resident all eloquent, leather shit in my front yard
Tv by my swimming pool, got it built like a sports bar
Chevelle with a new motor, got the bitch like a sports car
Yeah, my name is Tity Boi, I don't fuck with hoes that wear sports bras
Crib bigger than your imagination
Call the trap house the gas station
Call momma's house the Jag station
Emoji sad faces
Look at these niggas
I need to buy pocketbooks for these niggas

Thirtys in the city movin' slow
Thirty, thirty, thirty-five hundred for the coat
Only-only-only real niggas keep you float, keep you float
Only trill niggas I know

Pour up in H-Town them niggas don't play 'round like Jas and Jr

Overall Meaning

The song "3500" by Travis Scott featuring Future and 2 Chainz is a rap song that talks about the lavish lifestyle of these artists. The song starts with the image of a bandana wrapped around the head of a person who's scared. The chorus highlights the importance of "real" and "trill" individuals in their life who keep them afloat, with a focus on the people who have been with them from their struggles through their success. The verses are full of references to high-end fashion, expensive cars, drugs, and parties, expressing the message that they have made it to the top and are living life to the fullest. The song celebrates the trill and real people around them and gives a nod to their past struggles.


One possible interpretation of the lyrics is that the artists are highlighting how the success they have achieved hasn't come from nowhere. Instead, it is the result of the hard work they have put in, as well as the support of the trill people around them. The lyrics could also be interpreted as a critique of the music industry and capitalist culture, which focus on materialism, consumption, and wealth accumulation over everything else.
