The lyrics to Pi'erre Bourne's song "Harry Potter" are filled with references to the rapper's life growing up in Queens, New York. The first few lines show Pi'erre's longing to be back with his friends in his neighborhood, but also the danger that comes with dodging the police. He then references two important locations to him: the site where Sean Bell was killed by police officers and the neighborhood of Rochdale where Hip-Hop culture thrived. Pi'erre's grandma lives across the street from Rochdale and he mentions going to Obama Fried Chicken to eat.
The lyrics also touch on Pi'erre's success in the music industry. He mentions his house on the hill and smoking weed at the trap on the hill. He almost got a record deal but had to take a Seroquel pill, a medication used to treat bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, possibly referencing struggles with his mental health. He then emphasizes that he doesn't rely on drugs to be successful and pays his bills.
The chorus of the song references the character of Hermione from the Harry Potter series, likening her love for Pi'erre's "stick" (possibly referring to his rap skills) to the magical wand she wields in the books. It's a clever play on words that ties the song's theme of success and power to the popular fantasy series.
