Young niggas on stand by
Young niggas on stand by
Stack the money til it's 7'5
Shawty know that we certified
Shawty know that we certified
That bih done ran up some mileage
Serving the swagg like a stylist
Whatever I do stay solid
I told my young niggas stay silent
You play this shit get violent
Whatever I do backwood I'm blazin
Whatever I do backwood I'm blazin
Hol on

Big chopstick that bih start raging
These niggas broke they spend their savings
Yuh yuh

Young nigga I'm ballin so hard just like Jason

Blowin up like a land mine
Young niggas on stand by
Young niggas on stand by
Stack the money til it's 7'5

Serving the swagg like a stylist
We can go up like a pilot
Whatever I do stay solid
I told my young niggas stay silent
You play this shit get violent
The lyrics of "Stand by Me" by MFATGG convey the strong emotions one feels when they are touched by someone they deeply desire. From the first line that repeats twice, "When you touch me, good god," we understand the passion and arousal instilled by the action. The following lines of "I can't stand it," are repeated several times in between verses and demonstrate the overwhelming sensation that the singer feels when touched by the focus of their desire. The next line of "Can't stand your love," may seem contradicting, but perhaps the physical touch is the aspect the individual cannot bear without feeling consumed by feelings that they know will be unrequited or unfulfilled. The repetition of the line, "You don't love nobody else, get back, I can't stand myself," brings context that the individual knows their love is not returned in the same capacity, causing inner turmoil and a feeling of self-loathing.
The following verses of "Early in the morning, can't get it right, had a little time with my baby last night," convey the sexual nature of the encounter the singer had with their lover. The line, "Got to do the walk, my baby just let me talk," perhaps suggests that the individual is walking away from the situation, unable to handle the unrequited feelings that the encounter has brought to the forefront. The line, "Sometimes I want you, sometimes I call, sometimes I ring so hard," suggests that the singer struggles to balance their desire and rationality when it comes to their lover, ringing hard may also suggest the desperation they feel.
Overall, the song is an exploration of the intense feeling one experiences when they are touched by someone they desire, and the inner turmoil that comes with unrequited love.
