[Intro]
This line sets the mood, implying the song is personal and emotional for Carti, as if he’s laying it all out for the listener.

[Chorus]
The chorus highlights Carti’s indulgent and carefree approach to relationships, bragging about his encounters with a variety of women. It’s repetitive and catchy, emphasizing his hedonistic lifestyle and confidence in his appeal.

[Verse]
The verse dives into Carti’s unapologetic flexing and chaotic lifestyle. He starts with casual mentions of intimacy, showing his lack of emotional attachment. The imagery of sipping “drank” and spending extravagantly on jewelry portrays his luxury-driven lifestyle. He likens his partners to being addicted, suggesting his irresistible charm, while also referring to substance use that heightens the intensity of his world.

The references to being “too high” and “geeked” highlight his constant state of euphoria, but also imply he’s on edge, aware of potential trouble. He talks about the risk of police encounters while riding around armed, revealing a dangerous and rebellious streak. Despite the risks, he’s confident in his ability to handle threats, even challenging rivals. The line about “doctors fee” suggests he’s capable of eliminating problems quickly and decisively.

Ultimately, this verse is a window into Carti’s mix of luxury, recklessness, and bravado. He thrives in a world of excess—spending, drügs, danger—but remains cool and in control, presenting himself as untouchable and thriving in chaos.

[Chorus]
The chorus repeats to reinforce the theme of indulgence, with Carti doubling down on his relationships and encounters, underscoring the carefree nature of his life and the diversity of experiences he enjoys.
