Wizkid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Live life, never worry 'bout the price
Thick thighs, I can see it in your eyes, yeah
She just want a ghetto love
Yeah, gyal so hood, mi nuh lie
Never let another man try
Pull up on my girl, it's that time, yeah
She just want a ghetto love
We ain't even got to the yard yet
With a African girl that you can't get
My old ting saw me lipsing my new ting
Luckily I got a calm ex (a calm one)
All her friends think I'm nice and sweet (sweet one)
Is it bad if I pipe and leave?
Her ex man fell off, she made man jollof
And said, "It's better than rice and peas" (no way)
Ciroc, no chase'
Your bum can't fit in them jeans, there's no space
I tell her come climb on my wood and go ape
Dem girls say they're happy for you, they're so fake
Backshots, now I'm pulling on bundles (backshots)
She don't take money from uncles (never)
Sauvage on my neck, said she liking the smell
Can't do it like us man, a lie dem a tell
Ciroc with the ice
Live life, never worry 'bout the price
Thick thighs, I can see it in your eyes, yeah
She just want a ghetto love
Yeah, gyal so hood, mi nuh lie
Never let another man try
Pull up on my girl, it's that time, yeah
She just want a ghetto love
She want love from the ghetto
And a pornstar with prosecco
Christian Louboutin, the stiletto
No fuckboys, but you didn't get the memo
Yeah, no stress (nah)
More life, more sex
We live a lot, uh, like what's next?
And we don't ever run back to the ex, no
Buy a few drinks, then tell 'em it's on me
If they don't believe, then tell 'em they go and see
I sent your girlfriend aubergine emoji
She sent me back eyes, man she's so naughty
Fuckboys get the emoji knives
Buff gyal get the emoji eyes
Wanna put somethin' in your ovaries
My whole team winnin', man you know the vibes (yeah, killa)
Ciroc with the ice
Live life, never worry 'bout the price
Thick thighs, I can see it in your eyes, yeah
She just want a ghetto love
Yeah, gyal so hood, mi nuh lie
Never let another man try
Pull up on my girl, it's that time, yeah
She just want a ghetto love (yeah)
Ciroc with the ice
Live life, never worry 'bout the price
Thick thighs, I can see it in your eyes, yeah
She just want a ghetto love
Yeah, gyal so hood, mi nuh lie
Never let another man try
Pull up on my girl, it's that time, yeah
She just want a ghetto love
The lyrics to Wizkid Krept & Konan's song G Love embody the essence of living life to the fullest without worrying about the price. They sing of experiencing rich pleasures and indulgences, such as drinking Ciroc with ice and admiring a woman's thick thighs. The woman they sing of is a "ghetto love" - someone who embraces her background and roots and doesn't care about living lavishly or having expensive things. The singers are wary of other men trying to take their women, hence they pull up on them to protect their "ghetto love."
In the second verse, the singers boast of being with "an African girl that you can't get," and of drawing the attention of a new lover while breaking the heart of an old one. They also reference their ex-girlfriends and how they handle the situation calmly. They go on to sing about their experiences with "ghetto love" and how fake people can be, especially when expressing happiness for someone else's success. The lyrics also pay homage to the idea of living life to the fullest, without dwelling on the past, and not associating with "fuckboys."
In summary, the song G Love celebrates living life luxuriously while still embracing one's roots and where they came from. It emphasizes the importance of being true to oneself and not falling prey to fake people and situations.
