Yung Bans Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thirty on my Glock, it'll blow your face off
Siamese twins, suck the dick, have a taste off
All my diamonds water, nigga, we can have a skate off
Ayy, push up in a drop, and I got that straight drop
Thirty on my Glock, it'll blow your face off
Siamese twins, suck the dick, have a taste off
All my diamonds water, nigga, we can have a skate off
Ayy, work that thing to perfection
Never neglect your message, sit back, enjoy your assets
Take time from all the pressure, know I'ma get what's destined
If I don't see the daylight, my shooters shoot like Stephen
Yeah, know it will be alright
You gotta do your thing, they gon' fuck up your life
My diamonds soakin' wet, just like a waterslide
No, I don't need no friends, they can go take a hike
Ayy, push up in a drop, and I got that straight drop
Thirty on my Glock, it'll blow your face off
Siamese twins, suck the dick, have a taste off
All my diamonds water, nigga, we can have a skate off
Ayy, push up in a drop, and I got that straight drop
Thirty on my Glock, it'll blow your face off
Siamese twins, suck the dick, have a taste off
All my diamonds water, nigga, we can have a skate off
All my pockets full, all my jeans saggin'
Walk inside the bank, give it up and a bad bitch
I was out here juggin', hittin' licks 'cause I ain't had shit
Mama out here workin' day and night to spend her last cent
I apologize for always bein' a bad kid
Ridin' 'round with that ratchet, stretch a nigga, elastic (ayy)
Jewelry fake like plastic, ran off and we snatch it (ayy)
Disappear like magic, true story, no rappin'
Push up in a drop, and I got that straight drop
Thirty on my Glock, it'll blow your face off
Siamese twins, suck the dick, have a taste off
All my diamonds water, nigga, we can have a skate off
Ayy, push up in a drop, and I got that straight drop
Thirty on my Glock, it'll blow your face off
Siamese twins, suck the dick, have a taste off
All my diamonds water, nigga, we can have a skate off (ayy)
(Skate off, skate off)
The lyrics of Yung Bans's song "WaterSlide" describe the rapper's lavish lifestyle and affinity for diamonds and expensive cars. The opening verse implies that Yung Bans drives a luxury car with a "straight drop" and has enough money to afford the best quality drugs. He also brags about his weapon, a Glock, and his ability to use it to deadly effect. The next verse has more of a reflective tone, with Yung Bans encouraging listeners to focus on themselves and take time to enjoy life's simple pleasures. He affirms his belief that he will succeed despite any obstacles in his path, even if it means resorting to violence ("shooters shoot like Stephen"). The chorus repeats the opening lines, emphasizing Yung Bans's self-indulgent, hedonistic tendencies.
The third verse gives some insight into Yung Bans's upbringing, suggesting that he had a rough childhood and may have turned to crime out of necessity. He expresses remorse for his past mistakes and also acknowledges the danger associated with his criminal lifestyle, such as the risk of being caught by the police ("disappear like magic"). The song ends with a final chorus repeating the same lyrics.
