TOKYO DRIFT
Yungpalo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yung Palo, der Nigga, ich komm′ aus'm Benz
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Ey!

Ich bin gefang′n in der Trap, ich bin gefang'n im Bezirk
Ich hör' Kodak-skrt und ich skrt skrt
In ′nem skrt skrt durch mein′n Bezirk
Ich bin nicht in Tokyo, mache ein'n Drift
Spin′ in der Hood wie 'n Beyblade, let it rip
Meine Jungs leben Fast and Furious
Komm in die Hood und ich zeig′ dir paar Tricks

Und sie steht auf Trapper wie Sosa und Raris
Und Rovers und sie stеht auf Trapper wie mich
Finessе das Pack, ganze Key
Danach spin' ich im Block und das für die neusten Kicks
Finesse den Plug, Simsalabim
Tasche von Prada, doch da ist nichts drin
Deine Jungs haben drei Flows
Meine haben vier-sieben-sechs und ich drifte durch sechs-fünf

Wenn du willst, ja, dann flieg′ ich nach Tokyo
Niggas sind Capper, Pinnochio
Ja, die spielen dir was vor, DiCaprio
Yung Palo, doch bin noch kein Romeo
All white Moncler seh' ich aus wie 'n Eskimo
Ich sitz′ im Coupe, hör′ Chief Keef-Citgo
Drifts im Car, doch bin nicht Mario
Haha, wer ist der die Bangs im Barrio

Ich bin gefang'n in der Trap
Ich bin gefang′n im Bezirk
Ich hör' Kodak-Skrt und ich skrt skrt
In ′nem skrt skrt durch mein'n Bezirk
Ich bin nicht in Tokyo, mache ein′n Drift
Spin' in der Hood wie 'n Beyblade, let it rip
Meine Jungs leben Fast and Furious
Komm in die Hood und ich zeig′ dir paar Tricks

Ich bin gefang′n in der Trap
Ich bin gefang'n im Bezirk
Ich hör′ Kodak-skrt und ich skrt skrt
In 'nem skrt skrt durch mein′n Bezirk
Ich bin nicht in Tokyo, mache ein'n Drift
Spin′ in der Hood wie 'n Beyblade, let it rip
Meine Jungs leben Fast and Furious
Komm in die Hood und ich zeig' dir paar Tricks

Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, (bye, bye)
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, (bye, bye)




Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, (bye, bye)
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, (bye, bye, bye, bye)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "Tokyo Drift" by Yungpalo are reflective of the artist's life and experiences, and of the trap genre generally. In the very beginning, the artist establishes himself as from the ghetto, coming from a Benz, and living life in the fast lane, as signified by the repeated "bye, bye." He then goes on to talk about being imprisoned in the trap district, listening to Kodak Black's music and cruising around in his car, spinning fast as he drifts around corners. The artist then offers to show anyone who wants to see how his tricks work in the hood, saying that he and his crew are living like characters from the "Fast and Furious" movie series.


Another significant theme in the song is the artist's desire to escape his current reality, as he references Tokyo and a different way of being several times throughout. While he admits that he is not actually there and only participating in a metaphorical drift, he imagines himself soaring to new heights and experiencing new things. He also talks about love in the form of a list of things a girl likes, including "trappers" and "Rovers," but ultimately states that he is not yet a "Romeo." Ultimately, the lyrics are a depiction of the artist's life in the trap district, his aspirations to escape it, and his love for the world of fast cars, music, and companionship with his boys.
