It feel like I'm dying on the X, ho
Yeah, I be taking Percs just for my head, ho
Had to let you know, I said whoa
I just told you don't come in the door, I said go
I had to tell y'all, I had to let you know, you not my ho
I just take the Perc' and then I float
I pull up and I turn up, talking 'bout a, yeah, show
My money get taller every day, yeah, it grow
I know you been stalking my page, I know you lil' ho, I know
Yeah, I went and ran it up, I had enough
Went and switched the Benz, I had it scuffed
Yeah, you's a pick me up, no, no, I know your stuff
Yeah, you know, I call everyone, I call your bluff
Yeah, you know, you know the Tonka is my truck
Couldn't decide on the Perc' or the X, I took 'em both
We just laughin' at your music, you a joke, yeah
These bitches jumpin' on me like some rope
I make the best songs when I'm dyin', I thought you knew
Yeah, you not my twizz, you not my twin, you not my bro, yeah
I just picked up on the side, I let it go
I just pulled up on your side, I'm in your ho
I just pulled up, made a mess and then I go
I'm richer than a bitch, I run the world
Now, go ahead, tell me what you said, what's the word?
Now, go ahead, pull up on the cops and hit the swerve
I tried to tell you everything, you wouldn't learn
I been one of the greatest to ever do it since my birth
This could be my last song, ho
It feel like I'm dying on the X, ho
Yeah, I be taking Percs just for my head, ho
Had to let you know, I said whoa
I just told you don't come in the door, I said go
I had to tell y'all, I had to let you know, you not my ho
I just take the Perc' and then I float
I pull up and I turn up, talking 'bout a, yeah, show
My money get taller every day, yeah, it grow
I know you been stalking my page, I know you lil' ho, I know
The lyrics of Yeat's song "Lët ya know" depict the artist's drug use and the consequences it has on his life. He admits to taking Percocet just to numb the pain in his head, even though it feels like he's dying while on the drug. He also mentions taking Xanax, and how he can't decide between the two drugs, so he takes them both. The chorus repeats the line, "This could be my last song," which could be interpreted as a nod to the dangers of drug abuse.
The verses also touch on Yeat's fame and fortune, with references to his growing wealth and people stalking his social media page. He seems unbothered by those who criticize his music, claiming that he is one of the greatest artists to ever do it. He also makes dismissive comments about women, referring to them as "ho"s and "pick me ups."
Overall, the lyrics paint a picture of an artist who is struggling with addiction and the pressures of fame, but who remains confident in his abilities.
