Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And for the blogs who label me as nerdy
Tryna keep me down but yo don't worry
I got all the answers like my nickname scurry
Steven Hawking test me, ain't no one can best me
I just kill everything, hey someone should arrest me
They try to Kanye West me and I don't care who assest me
I don't ever let a nigga circle bubble lotter check me
Rascal ass niggas on the scene Otay
Niggas dont want it with my clique, No way
If they want to get hit that shit, Okay
Pretty ass girls in the back say hey
Skinny ass niggas playing games say hey
They gon' talk talk but it ain't gon' change
Super duper Kyle stay a okay
So um so, me and my team and shit
We're really fucking real right?
Flows so cold, I could make a stove chill right?
My nigga it's the rapper, ill adapter, more like your new favorite rapper
McDonald's wrappers, is making illing slappers
Swaggy ass tee, pulling out my jeans
Like they ain't dweebs, scream these niggas don't mean nuthin
They could go to hell if that's really how they feel
Sorry if you think I'm fake, I just keep it real
Real, Real yeah I could do that
You're a fucking liar, nigga true that, true that
You ain't got no heart, I could see it in your face
To these guys in my lane, get the fuck out my way
They ain't got no say so
Saving up them pesos, can't carry their weight
And I ain't trying to be their cane though
Sick of being doubted, sick of being hated
So I'm just gonna kill it 'till I'm sick of being famous
In KYLE's song A Okay, he acknowledges the white girls who might have heard of him before while also addressing the blogs who have labeled him as nerdy. Despite the negative labels, he is not worried as he has answers to all. He compares himself to Steven Hawking, suggesting that he is the smartest person in the room, and confidently asserts that no one can defeat him. He goes on to say that he kills everything he does and suggests that someone should even arrest him for being so good. He doesn't want anyone to try to bring him down, using Kanye West as an example of someone who has had to deal with that. He then refers to a woman in a dress, speaks to his crew, and sings about how he and his crew are unstoppable. Thin and pretty girls and guys who play games will try to bring him down, but it won't change the fact that he's super cool Kyle.
In the second verse, KYLE emphasizes the realness that he and his team represent. He talks about being able to make a stove chill with his flow and how he is everyone's favorite new rapper. He comments on how McDonald's wrappers are making better music than a lot of people. He remarks on how his swag makes him untouchable, and those who don't like it can go to hell. He suggests that his haters have no heart and are only in his way; they are not worth his time. He will continue to kill it until he is sick of being famous. Through this song, KYLE asserts his confidence, reminding his listeners that he is the best in the game.
