Yeah, Spider (slime)

Yeah, okay, shit, I just woke up in a Animal
I just woke up in a Lambo'
Flawless baguettes and the orange Richard
I just had bust down a cantaloupe
Niggas want beef, and I'm tryna be vegan
But fuck it, bae, bring a can of smoke
I can't see niggas in the glasses store (swear)
Slidin' in the coupe in the back
Smoke out the bag, too big for a sack
Do you see her baby hair goin' down her back?
Shawty look just like a two-year-old brat (goddamn)
Just like a record, get scratched
Y'all niggas rats, dispatch (dispatch)
I got four Blacks, Kit-Kat (ooh)
Dick in her back, I'm dad
"Player, where you from?"
Talk 'bout the trenches, I came out the trenches
I came from the roaches, I came from the riches
I'm from where they call you a rat if you snitchin' (woo)
I came from the same damn street as the pimpin'
I'm raised by them junkies, we sleep with them bitches
Young nigga came from nothin', he'll give up his kidney
But Saint Laurent still tryna cease-and-desist it, woo
Niggas say, "How do you keep up with millions?"
My nigga, I'm straight out the trenches, woo
Niggas say let go they bitches, we treatin' them right
And we grantin' they wishes, woo
I was a Capo in my hood way 'fore a plaque or a mention (woo)
He can get hit with the 'stension (woo)
Shot for the folk, but I missed it (yeah)

Tick tock, tick tock, ten shots to your side like tick tock (tick tock)
When I bow down to my bitch, it come with a big rock (big rock)
Do you wan' know how it is (what?), when you a big dawg? (Yeah)
You might gotta take the assist (and what?), let your dawg get the big shot (woo)
Tick tock, tick tock, ten shots to your side like tick tock (tick tock, tick tock)
When I bow down to my bitch, it come with a big rock
Do you wan' know how it is (what?), When you a big dawg? (Yeah)
You might gotta take the assist (and what?), let your dawg get the big shot

Yeah, she put the L in "love" (yeah)
Yeah, I put the L in "lust" (yeah)
I put the T in "trust" (yeah)
I always trust my guts (hah)
I've just been shittin' with no flush, yeah
Poppin' my shit, say, "Church," yeah
Kickin' my pimpin', no crutch, yeah (crutch)
Bad ass bitch, and she Dutch (hey)
I made me some mills, that's a must (uh-huh)
We not overseas, why rush? (Uh-huh)
She tried to play it hard, lil' slut (on what?)
I hit that lil' bitch, now I'm clutch (clutch)
Got Versace on top of my nuts (woo)
Put Cavalli on an old ass slut (slut)
Shoot a video, no cut (cut)
Gucci stroller for the kids, so what? (Yeah)

Tick tock, tick tock, ten shots to your side like tick tock (tick tock)
When I bow down to my bitch, it come with a big rock (big rock)
Do you wan' know how it is (and what?), when you a big dawg? (Yeah)

Overall Meaning

In "Tick Tock" by Young Thug, the lyrics depict a lifestyle of luxury and extravagance. The song opens with Thug waking up in an "Animal" (possibly a reference to a luxurious condo or mansion) and a Lamborghini. He mentions his flawless diamond jewelry and an orange Richard Mille watch. Thug's boastful nature is evident when he says he recently had to "bust down a cantaloupe," which could refer to him adding diamonds to a piece of jewelry or buying an expensive item.


Thug expresses his desire to avoid conflict with others, symbolized by his intention to be vegan while other people want to start beef with him. However, he admits that he is willing to engage in confrontation if necessary. He mentions sliding in a coupe with smoke and emphasizes the opulent lifestyle he leads by alluding to the baby hair on a woman's back and comparing her to a spoiled two-year-old. Thug also criticizes those who are followers or "rats" (possibly snitches), contrasting himself as an independent and self-reliant figure. He claims to come from humble beginnings, rising from poverty and drugs while acknowledging the street life and acknowledging his upbringing surrounded by junkies and prostitutes. He adds a touch of humor by saying that despite his success, the fashion brand Saint Laurent still wants to stop him from wearing their clothes.


The chorus, "Tick tock, tick tock, ten shots to your side like tick tock," creates a sense of urgency and impending danger. It suggests that Thug is armed and ready to protect himself and his lifestyle. He mentions the importance of supporting his partner and ensuring her happiness, indicating that he is willing to assist his friends in achieving success.


Overall, "Tick Tock" portrays Young Thug's extravagant lifestyle, his ability to rise above his upbringing, and his determination to protect himself and those close to him.
