Lyrics
I'm a different kind of boy
I identify as a unique individual
(You see)
Emphasizing the distinctiveness
I'm myself
Embracing one's true self
(Unique)
Highlighting individuality
Plenty things I want
Desiring various things
Like pearls and rubies
Expressing desire for luxury items
He's a pretty boy you see
Describing someone as attractive
He got the new jays on his feet
Wearing new sneakers
Not much else he does
Not engaged in much else
But smoke on his trees
Engaging in recreational drug use
He likes material things
Appreciating material possessions
He smokes on that weed
Using marijuana
He is that guy
Identifying as a certain type of person
He don't care what you think
Not concerned about others' opinions
It's the reminder
Emphasizing a recurring theme
It's the reminder
Reiterating the importance of the theme
It's the reminder
Stating again the significance of the theme
It's the reminder-
Continuing to stress the theme
My skin shines bright like Ri
Comparing skin brightness to Rihanna
I'm feeling myself like Bey
Feeling confident like Beyoncé
I don't care what you think (no I don't)
Not concerned about others' opinions (repeated)
I'm all about my green (yeah)
Focused on financial success
I want it all like Sharpay (like Sharpay)
Desiring abundance similar to Sharpay Evans
Yes I mean what I say (mean what I say)
Affirming the truthfulness of statements
I come through and slay (and slay)
Achieving success with confidence
Cause I'm that boy (who)
Repetition emphasizing identity as a specific type of person
I'm that boy (who)
-I'm that boy (who)
-I'm that boy
-And I'm (what)
Further clarification of identity
Not your toy
Asserting independence and not being controlled
He's a pretty boy you see
Reiteration of a person's characteristics and attitude
He might rock Fenty
-He might grab a cuban link
-While smoking on his trees
-He likes material things
-He smokes on that weed
-He is that guy
-He don't care what you think
-Ay ay is a reminder
Repeating the theme as a reminder
Ay ay is a reminder
-Ay ay is a reminder
-Ay ay is a reminder
-He don't care what you think
Asserting disregard for others' opinions and requesting service
He don't care what you think
-Please hold your opinion
-And fetch me my drink
Expressing entitlement to a drink
