Samantha is filled with unexpected turns. Sparse one- and two-minute instrumental sketches serve as interludes, creating a sense of flow with soul and R&B samples ("Stoned at the MoMA", "Prayer Hands", the Ciara-quoting "Boo Boo Mobile"). Bundick ventures into ambient on glitchy, sedate closer "welp, tour’s over" and "ambient Rainbow", with the latter layering choral vocals and soothing washes of sound to mesmerizing ends. It’s a testament to Bundick’s innovation that he’s still finding ways to contort his signature sound into new shapes. Even when songs do call back to his previous work, as on "Us 2", which pairs a churning hip-hop beat with sugary synth pads that sound lifted from his 2011 cover of Cherrelle’s "Saturday Love", they still put a fresh spin on the approach.
The songs on Samantha are about the ups and downs of relationships, placing most emphasis on the downs. Bundick even goes so far as to tack an extended sample of The Notebook onto the end of creeping, Washed Out-assisted "Want", a move that very narrowly evades tipping over into schmaltz. On the trap-influenced "The Usual", he laments the frustrations of being a workaholic in a relationship, an unusually frank moment from Bundick. Elsewhere, Kool A.D. spins off into woozy, emotionally conflicted verses ("I got problems acting like a fuckin’ grown up," he grouses in Auto-Tune on "Real Love"), while rising Atlanta rapper Rome Fortune relays relationship fallouts on two of the tape’s best tracks, "Pitch Black" and Puff Daddy-sampling "Benjiminz". Samantha lightens up by the end, as on the sweetly jittery "Enough of You", but the main theme seems to be that relationships are complicated messes that can lead to comfort and love as easily as pain and heartbreak.

Iconic
Wir sind high (I don't care)
Iconic (I don't care)
Iconic, Iconic (I don't care)
Oh mein Gott, was für eine Aussicht (I don't care)
Spiegel' in deine Augen (I don't care)
Ich hab' mich schon längst verlaufen (I don't care)
Doch Leute, ruft zurück
Ich bin pures Glück (I don't care)
Ich bin da, nah, hier, brauch' mich oder nicht (I don't care)
Daytrip nach Paris, träum' in deiner Fantasie (I don't care)
Fell an deinen Boots
Kush in meinen Jeans (I don't care)
Iconic (I don't care)
Iconic, Iconic (I don't care)
Iconic (I don't care)
Iconic
Oh mein Gott, was für eine Aussicht (I don't care)
Haben wir von hier oben (Iconic)
Hab' gewusst, dass du mal rausmusst (I don't care)
Ich bin noch nie so weit geflogen
New York, L.A., Paris, London und Tokio
Du und ich last Minute um die Welt
Berlin, Beijing, Moskau in drei Tagen
Und Babe, egal was du willst, du kannst es haben
(Iconic, Iconic, Iconic, Iconic, Iconic, Iconic)
Ich bin, du bist, wir sind, wir sind, wir sind fucked up
Haben innerliche Monster
Insomnia, this gonna be all, this gonna be all
Ich bin, du bist, wir sind, wir sind, wir sind fucked up
Wir sind high
Ich bin, du bist, wir sind, wir sind, wir sind fucked up
Wir sind high

Insomnia, das dürfen wir, das dürfen wir
Ich bin, du bist, wir sind, wir sind, wir sind fucked up
Wir sind high

The lyrics to TyM's song "ICONIC" convey a sense of carefree and reckless behavior. The repetition of "Iconic" throughout the song emphasizes a sense of self-importance and a disregard for consequences. The phrase "Ich bin, du bist, wir sind, wir sind, wir sind fucked up" translates to "I am, you are, we are, we are, we are fucked up." This line suggests that the singer and those around them are living a chaotic and tumultuous lifestyle.
The lyrics also touch upon themes of escapism and the pursuit of pleasure. Lines like "Daytrip nach Paris, träum' in deiner Fantasie" (Daytrip to Paris, dream in your fantasy) and "New York, L.A., Paris, London und Tokio" (New York, L.A., Paris, London and Tokyo) depict a life of indulgence and jet-setting. The chorus, which repeatedly states "I don't care," further emphasizes a carefree attitude and a rejection of societal norms and expectations.
Overall, "ICONIC" portrays a sense of rebellion and hedonism, with the singer and their companions embracing a lifestyle that is both thrilling and destructive. The lyrics celebrate recklessness and live life on their own terms, regardless of the consequences.
