I’ll Take Care of You Lyrics – Tyler, The Creator

I’ll Take Care of You Lyrics Meaning

[Chorus: Tyler, The Creator]
Here, Tyler’s repeating a promise—he’s saying he’ll be there for someone no matter what. It’s like a heartfelt reassurance to someone close, letting them know they can count on him. The repetition of “you” just makes it feel more personal and deep, like he really wants the listener to feel safe and supported by him.

[Refrain: Killa C, Princess & Tyler, The Creator]
This part is a mix of tough guy energy and loyalty. They’re making it clear they’re not weak or scared of confrontation. There’s a strong sense of pride here—like they’ve always stood their ground and never acted fake. But in the middle of all that confidence and bravado, Tyler throws in “I’ll take care of you,” which shifts the tone a little. It’s like saying, “I’m tough, I’ve been through it, but I’ve still got your back.” The lines about “luck is a must” and “ruck and get stuffed” sound like warnings to anyone stepping wrong—basically, don’t mess with them or the people they care about.

[Bridge: Princess, Princess & Killa C & Tyler, The Creator]
This part keeps the same tough tone. It’s like they’re drawing a line—saying they’ve had enough nonsense, and if someone brings trouble, they’ll handle it. “Knuck if you buck” is like saying they’re ready to fight if they need to. But even with all that, Tyler drops in again to say, “I’ll take care of you,” like he’s reminding someone that his loyalty still stands strong no matter what.

[Verse: Tyler, The Creator]
Tyler opens up more here. He talks about giving someone his love and soul, even pushing himself to the edge for them. He admits he’s struggling personally—he’s going through something that’s starting to affect him emotionally or mentally. Still, despite his own pain, he tells the other person to stay, promising he’ll take care of them. It shows his vulnerable side, and it’s kind of emotional, like he’s trying to be strong for both of them.

[Refrain: Killa C]
This is a repeat of the earlier tough talk. Killa C keeps asserting that he’s never been soft or fake. He’s not messing around with people who don’t respect him, and he’s not afraid to stand up for himself. It’s that same energy of confidence, loyalty, and proving they’re not to be played with.

[Outro: Tyler, The Creator & Killa C]
The song closes out by circling back to that mix of toughness and care. They repeat that they’re not lame and won’t be pushed around. But once again, Tyler’s voice cuts through with that promise—“I’ll take care of you.” It ends the song on the same note it started: a tough guy with a soft spot.
