Float
Young Nomad Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Shawty in the back she got coke up in her nose
Every time that we fuck imma make her touch her toes
I just spilled the drank on my new designer clothes
Claim you didn't need me but you always do the most

Shawty in the back she got coke up in her nose
Every time that we fuck imma make her touch her toes
I just spilled the drank on my new designer clothes
Claim you didn't need me but you always do the most

Claim you didn't need me but you always do the most
I just cracked another seal pour a 4 inside the ghost
Diamonds always drippin' feelin' like I'm on boat
You would think I'm underwater but this gas make me float

Popping all these pills, different colors every night
Bitches think that I'm a plumber from the way that I lay pipe
Spend a rack inside the store i don't even need to swipe
Louis duffle, vacuum seal so you know the package tight

I got bitches swiping left, I got bitches right
They be all up in my DMs and they tryna spend the night
Went from being broke straight to livin' lavish life
And my homie keep a mop make a mess he use it twice

Higher than a kite imma blast off like a rocket
I be zoomin in the coupe and I'm lookin like a comet
Keep on talkin shit pick them fifties out yo pocket
Got my homie on the block and we all collectin' profit

Counting all these hunnids lotta people come and cop it
Thirteen keep a fuckin choppa dump yo body in the tropic
Keep on talkin nonsense bitch you know that you is toxic
You don't get the bigger picture so you know I had to crop it

You don't get the bigger picture you get cropped out of the frame
I got demons in my cup, I got demons in my brain
I was speedin' off A bean screamin' money ain't a thang
They keep coming outta pocket think they all just lost some change

Shawty in the back she got coke up in her nose
Every time that we fuck imma make her touch her toes
I just spilled the drank on my new designer clothes
Claim you didn't need me but you always do the most

Shawty in the back she got coke up in her nose
Every time that we fuck imma make her touch her toes




I just spilled the drank on my new designer clothes
Claim you didn't need me but you always do the most

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Young Nomad's song "Float" delve into a narrative that touches upon elements of excess, indulgence, and superficiality. The opening lines paint a vivid picture of a hedonistic scene, with references to drug use and materialism. The repetition of the lines "Shawty in the back she got coke up in her nose, Every time that we fuck imma make her touch her toes" establishes a pattern of reckless behavior and fleeting pleasures. The spilled drink on designer clothes serves as a metaphor for the carelessness and disregard for consequences that permeate the character's lifestyle.


The mention of someone claiming they don't need the singer, yet always going above and beyond ("do the most"), hints at a toxic dynamic in relationships. The casual reference to pouring a 4 (presumably a reference to the codeine drink lean) inside the ghost, and the feeling of floating due to the effects of the drug, further reinforce the theme of escapism and detachment from reality. The imagery of diamonds dripping and feeling like being on a boat, despite being underwater, adds to the surreal and disorienting nature of the indulgences described.


As the lyrics progress, the narrative shifts to references of drug use and promiscuity, reflected in lines about popping pills and engaging in casual encounters. The casual attitude towards spending money and the flaunting of luxury goods like a Louis Vuitton duffle bag indicate a surface-level definition of success and fulfillment. The singer boasts about attracting attention from admirers while also hinting at a turbulent and chaotic lifestyle with references to messes being cleaned up.


The closing verses touch upon themes of self-destructive behavior, with mentions of being high and reckless, as well as suggestions of internal turmoil ("I got demons in my cup, I got demons in my brain"). The dismissive attitude towards those who fail to grasp the singer's lifestyle choices and the act of cropping out negativity from one's life reflect a sense of self-preservation and detachment. Overall, the lyrics offer a glimpse into a world of excess, temporary highs, and a search for meaning amidst a backdrop of superficial relationships and fleeting pleasures.

Shawty in the back she got coke up in her nose
The girl in the backseat is indulging in drug use


Every time that we fuck imma make her touch her toes
During intimate moments, I take control and push boundaries


I just spilled the drank on my new designer clothes
Accidentally ruining expensive attire with alcohol


Claim you didn't need me but you always do the most
Denying dependence but consistently acting excessively


I just cracked another seal pour a 4 inside the ghost
Opening another codeine bottle to mix a drink


Diamonds always drippin' feelin' like I'm on boat
Experiencing luxury like being on a yacht


You would think I'm underwater but this gas make me float
Feeling weightless and detached due to drug influence


Bitches think that I'm a plumber from the way that I lay pipe
Women believe I excel in physical relationships


Spend a rack inside the store i don't even need to swipe
Casually spending large amounts without worry


Louis duffle, vacuum seal so you know the package tight
Using high-end bags for discreetly packaged items


I got bitches swiping left, I got bitches right
Having multiple romantic interests on social media


They be all up in my DMs and they tryna spend the night
Receiving direct messages from interested individuals


Higher than a kite imma blast off like a rocket
Experiencing a strong high and feeling euphoric


I be zoomin in the coupe and I'm lookin like a comet
Driving fast and standing out like a shooting star


Keep on talkin shit pick them fifties out yo pocket
Continuously provoking with visible stacks of cash


Counting all these hunnids lotta people come and cop it
Tallying large sums as many seek to purchase


Thirteen keep a fuckin choppa dump yo body in the tropic
Using violence in warm climates for disposal


Keep on talkin nonsense bitch you know that you is toxic
Persisting with negative behavior that harms others


You don't get the bigger picture you get cropped out of the frame
Failing to understand the full context and being excluded


I got demons in my cup, I got demons in my brain
Struggling with inner turmoil and emotional battles


I was speedin' off A bean screamin' money ain't a thang
Driving fast under the influence and acting recklessly


They keep coming outta pocket think they all just lost some change
Others keep spending frivolously and losing money

Good day everyone. The so-called "Bajo or Bajoe in Indonesia", "Bajau, Bajao, Bajaw" in Malaysia, "Badjao" in the Philippines, and "Samal" in Sulu, and similar cognates, are indeed "Sama". All these autonyms and exonyms have been put upon members of the Sama by the "outsiders". Sama is the appropriate and acceptable ethnonym when referring to any autonym or exonym of members of these ethnic group. The first settlers of Sulu, Basilan and Zamboanga (now Zamboanga City) were the Sama (Pallessen, 1985). They were the fourth group of people who migrated from Indonesia to Zamboanga Peninsulas, Basilan and Sulu way back to 12,000-8,000 AD (Maximilan Larena, 2021). There are a lot of things to talk about the evasive identity of these people, but this is not the proper forum to tell who really these people are/were.

Its good to hear that there are people whose life got better compared to generations before

@ajiebooks

Yeah, but many were exploited in the cities. With different environment and way of life, they resorted to begging. They've been scattered all over the Philippines, often found on an informal settlements.
