I'd rather she start up, come on, and take dick
Call me daddy when I get up in it
Never spending now she know right after that I'm dipping
The lyrics to Ty Dolla $ign's song, "Ty Dolla Sign," feature a conversation between Ty and a female. Ty seems to be frustrated with the female and the type of music she wants to hear, as he wants to listen to something more sophisticated and grounded, rather than something that's just "turnt up." The lyrics then switch to a radio station, where they are asking if it's okay to have a side person in a relationship or not. This sets up the main part of the song where Ty talks about his side girl wanting to be his main girl, and how he enjoys having her around but doesn't want to commit to her fully.
Ty seems to be grappling with his own feelings, as he enjoys the attention and affection his side girl gives him, but also doesn't want to give up the freedom of having other options. He talks about wanting her to start things up sexually but then leaves right after he's done. This portrays a sense of emotional unavailability on Ty's part and a lack of potential for a real, committed relationship with his side girl.
Overall, the lyrics of "Ty Dolla Sign" provide a window into the complicated dynamics of modern-day relationships and the struggle between wanting freedom and wanting love.

Call in to share your opinion
My side girl wanna be my main bitch
The girl I'm seeing on the side wants to be my main girlfriend
Say she wanna have my babies
She wants to start a family with me
Said our love would be amazing
She believes our love is special
Until we pushing up daisies
Until we die
And I don't know how she gon' take this
I'm not sure how she'll react to what I'm about to say
I'd rather she start up, come on, and take dick
I'd prefer if she initiated sex with me
Call me daddy when I get up in it
I like it when she calls me 'daddy' during sex
Never spending now she know right after that I'm dipping
I don't want to spend the night with her, I plan to leave right after sex
