My Shayla Spice-Rilla Lyrics – Tory Lanez

My Shayla Spice-Rilla Lyrics Meaning

[First Verse]
Tory starts the song by talking about how people need to understand the way he raps and moves in the streets. He hints at having control over certain situations, suggesting that people don’t get taken down unless he allows it. He also calls out some women who betray their loyalty for personal gain.

Then, he touches on his downfall—how people were secretly happy when he got sentenced. He knows that some were even celebrating, thinking they got rid of him. He reflects on his situation, admitting he’s just a guy from the streets trying to live his life. He jokes about finding a girl on Instagram, adding a lighter moment to the verse.

Tory then compares his life to a kingpin’s, even though he claims he’s not one. He acknowledges the prison environment and the way people throw up gang signs. Despite everything, he isn’t surprised by his haters. But he finds it crazy that even behind bars, people are still trying to control his actions with restraining orders.

He brings up Tyrese’s viral emotional breakdown, saying people keep demanding more from him, even after he was taken away from his young son. He recalls how his father reacted to his sentencing, passionately shouting outside the courthouse. Instead of sympathy, people mocked his dad and turned it into a joke online. But Tory believes his father’s words are now proving to be true.

[Second Verse]
Now, Tory shifts his focus to Roc Nation, implying that they’re going after Milagro (a journalist known for defending him). He finds it funny that people are trying to tie him to every controversy, even things he has no involvement in.

He brings up Meghann Cuniff, a journalist who reported on his case, suggesting she was paid to spread a certain narrative. Tory is frustrated with the double standards—how others accused of serious crimes aren’t judged as harshly as he was. He feels like the industry picks and chooses who they want to cancel.

He expresses anger about how he was already seen as guilty in the public eye before his trial even happened. He claims his own lawyer was playing both sides, and he didn’t realize it until he was already locked up. He also accuses Randy Zepeda of manipulating his DNA evidence, hinting at corruption in his case.

Despite all this, he acknowledges that he has supporters fighting for him, like United The People. He then questions the motives behind his downfall, wondering how much people were willing to sacrifice just to remove him from the industry. He mocks an artist whose career is failing, implying that they’re not even successful despite his absence.

Tory makes it clear he’s not the villain, even though people paint him that way. He asks how much he’s supposed to endure without defending himself. Even though he’s behind bars, he’s trying to improve himself, mentioning the four documentaries being made about his case—none of which he ever approved.

He’s frustrated that the media tells his story in a way that makes him look bad, as if he personally spoke to them. He also finds it ridiculous that people claim he’s harassing someone from jail, as if he’s creating fake social media profiles just to target them.

Tory calls out the media’s portrayal of him, saying they act like he’s obsessed when he’s really not thinking about it at all. He repeats the phrase [“Get over yourself”[, directing it at those still trying to bring him down while he’s in prison. He reminds them that people have lives, families, and businesses to focus on, so they need to move on.

[DSTNY’s Verse]
DSTNY’s part is short but meaningful. She talks about working hard, making money, and staying prayed up despite life’s struggles. It serves as a break in the song before Tory’s next verse.

[Tory’s Second Verse]
Here, Tory talks to a woman he’s involved with, asking her why she’s acting distant when she comes to visit him in prison. He notices she’s hanging around other men, making him suspicious. At the same time, he hints that she might be sneaking things into the prison for him.

He makes a playful reference to conjugal visits, saying things get wild when they meet. Then, he reflects on how prison forced him to learn things he never would have outside, comparing it to getting an education.

Tory describes an intimate moment during a visit, where he’s ignoring the guards telling him to behave. He jokes that once he’s free, he’s going to make up for lost time. Then, he talks about his time locked up, saying he and his people are making strategic moves, almost like a game of chess. If someone messes up, they’ll handle it.

[Prison Yard Skit]
This part describes a tense moment in the prison yard. When the yard opens up, everyone goes outside, but if you have beef with someone, things can get dangerous fast. He paints a picture of locking eyes with an enemy, knowing a fight is about to break out. Both sides have backup, and then things explode into violence.

[Final Verse]
Tory talks about how deeply it affects him when people betray or disrespect him. He’s had to handle beef in the past, and it changed him. He then plays around with wordplay, referencing celebrities and female rappers. He praises GloRilla and Ice Spice, saying they’re his favorites. He makes a bold statement that if a woman doesn’t want to sleep with him, she must be crazy.

He talks about being up all night, probably thinking about life and his situation. He then mentions a woman working in the medical field, showing interest in her. He finishes by repeating his attraction to women like Ice Spice and saying that adding a third person into the mix would make things even better.

[Final Thoughts]
“My Shayla Spice-Rilla” is a mix of raw emotions, frustration, and confidence. Tory expresses his anger about how he was treated by the legal system, the media, and the industry. He believes he was unfairly judged and betrayed by people he trusted.

At the same time, he maintains his signature bravado, talking about women, prison life, and his determination to bounce back. The song switches between deep reflection and playful moments, making it a mix of vulnerability and confidence.

Tory’s message is clear—despite everything, he’s still standing, still speaking his truth, and still unshaken by those who tried to bring him down.
