Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She wanna know more, I want one thing (one thing)
Had her drinking and smoking on the tour bus (tour bus)
Last year I remember they ignored us (ignored us)
She used to fuck with A$AP (A$AP)
Too $hort said he know the bitch from way back (way back)
These groupie hoes ain't got no morals (morals)
Where that pussy goes only lord knows (lord knows, lord knows)
Only lord knows (lord knows, lord knows)
Lord knows (lord knows)
How'd I make it out of nothing, only lord knows
Why these niggas stay fronting, only lord knows (lord knows)
Oooh lord knows (lord knows, lord knows)
Lord knows (lord knows)
Is you really who you say only lord knows (lord knows)
Why they so fake, only lord knows
Giving the hoes game, real shit they gon' remember
I tried to see the Mustang, it don't drop 'til December
And that's what they told me
Pussy don't control me
Money don't define me
It help these hoes find me
I wonder if she wanna smoke and sit in the jacuzzi
And can I trust you to make my orange & carrot smoothie
And would you get mad if I looked at a girl booty? (Uh)
I just wanna know, I just wanna know (look)
Get the rag top, hit the drug spot, buy a sack
Then hit the club, who was that?
Where you find her at?
Bad little motherfucker, met her up at Starbucks
Or maybe that was coffee bean, shit, I was starstruck
I really don't remember (don't remember)
Only lord knows (lord knows, lord knows)
Lord knows (lord knows)
How'd I make it out of nothing, only lord knows
Why these niggas stay fronting, only lord knows (lord knows)
Oooh lord knows (lord knows, lord knows)
Lord knows (lord knows)
Is you really who you say only lord knows (lord knows)
Why they so fake, only lord knows (lord knows, lord knows)
Shawty asked you my name, baby, I'm the Boss
Shawty gave me that pussy, she bet I told my dogs
Never question my people, you see, they roll with me
Don't matter paper no swisher, my niggas smoke with me
Crack house flow, I got a mean buzz
Mai tai's looking how we dress our rings up
Ain't no love for no nigga that's going uphill
What's real? Ghostwrite another book deal (book deal)
Text, call hoes, Facebook up in the city
Nicky Barnes taking selfies, why you standing wit' 'em?
Whole squad getting checks, you'll never know that feeling
All my niggas tatted on me worth a hundred million
Never tift tat, I'd rather send the tank
You on breaking news, when I break the bank
When I break the bank
When I break the bank
When I break the bank
When I break the bank
How'd I make it out of nothing, only lord knows
Why these niggas stay fronting, only lord knows (lord knows)
Oooh lord knows (lord knows, lord knows)
Lord knows (lord knows)
Is you really who you say only lord knows (lord knows)
Why they so fake, only lord knows (lord knows, lord knows)
Stop all that playing I got you
Girl I'ma break you off proper
Girl I'ma break you off proper
Girl I'ma break you off proper
Girl I'ma break you off proper
Stretch the pussy out hey
The song "Lord Knows" by Ty Dolla $ign opens with the confession of the artist about having casual sex with five women the previous week, without even remembering a single name, whereas the woman in question seems to want the opposite of what he desires. While he spends his time drinking and smoking on a tour bus, the women he has been with seem to have no morals, as they are only interested in his fame and wealth. He reminisces about a time they were all ignored, trying to connect with the rapper A$AP, who knew one of the girls, but failed to get their attention. The chorus of the song, repeating the line "only lord knows," suggests that he is dealing with some difficult issues and is searching for answers.
In the second verse, Ty continues to speak about his life, focusing on money and sex. He tries to share some insights with the women he meets, telling them that he doesn't let the pussy control him and that he is more than just his money. He asks one of them if she wants to sit and smoke with him, and offers to make her an orange and carrot smoothie. He wonders if she would be mad if he looked at another girl's booty. He seems to be uncertain about the relationships he has and has trouble trusting people. In the final verse, he boasts about his achievements, claiming to have over $100 million worth of tattoos on his body, while his friends are getting big checks he doesn't disclose. The song ends with him talking about breaking the bank and stretching out the pussy.
