Lyrics
And fuck whoever thought it wasn't that hard
Expressing frustration towards those who underestimated the difficulty of a situation.
Fifteen hundred dollar limit dreaming about a black card
Aspiring for financial success, dreaming of having a high credit limit represented by a black card.
Aiming for the stars, with a rocket in the back yard
Ambitious goals, comparing them to reaching for the stars, metaphorically represented by a rocket in the backyard.
Hard to keep a good girl, not trying to play that card
Challenged in maintaining a stable relationship with a good girl, avoiding playing certain cards or games.
But never had no cash to spend
Experiencing a lack of financial resources.
Need a whip? I ask a friend
Depending on friends for basic needs like transportation.
If I can't withstand, even sweats you look attractive in
Expressing admiration for the attractiveness of a person even in casual clothing (sweats).
Cook a meal at home, some yellow tail I pour a glass, pretend
Creating an illusion of affluence by cooking a nice meal and enjoying it with a glass of wine.
Smash all night then wake you up to smash again
Referencing intimate activities in a playful manner.
Felt like we could never do wrong, and you been down for too long
Feeling invincible in a relationship, believing there's no room for improvement.
There's nothing to improve on
Expressing contentment with the current state of the relationship.
That's why I could never move on
Unwillingness to move on from the current relationship due to its stability.
From clippin' out a coupon
Highlighting humble beginnings by mentioning the use of coupons.
From sleeping on a futon
Recalling a time of financial struggle, represented by sleeping on a futon.
To being driven in a presidential Lincoln or a Yukon
Transitioning from a modest lifestyle to being chauffeured in luxury vehicles.
And I know you always stay down for the cause
Acknowledging loyalty and support in the face of challenges.
You love me even for the flaws
Appreciating unconditional love, even with acknowledged flaws.
But don't do this shit for applause
Performing actions in the relationship for genuine reasons, not seeking applause or recognition.
Soon as I get right I'ma take care of you
Commitment to taking care of the partner once financial stability is achieved.
Swear I'm so prepared to love you
Expressing readiness and determination to love the partner.
Know there's no one there above you
Acknowledging the partner's unique and significant position.
Yeah, pick it up where I left you at
Continuation of commitment, picking up where the relationship was left off.
Never wannna go have to get you back
Avoiding situations that would require reconciliation.
Enough hard times, yeah we went through that
Expressing a desire to move past difficult times in the relationship.
Big ol' house, I'ma get you that
Aspiring to provide a luxurious lifestyle, including a large house.
Overseas trips, baby let's do that
Planning for enjoyable experiences such as overseas trips.
Lookin' at your face and I'm thinking' about the place where I met you at
Reflecting on the place where the relationship started.
Yeah, and since day one, you supported these dreams
Acknowledging the partner's unwavering support for dreams and aspirations.
Always stay right by my side, trust I notice these things
Recognizing the partner's loyalty and constant presence.
Even way, way back
Referencing long-term support, going back to the early days of the relationship.
When my buzz was still like bee stings
Describing a time when success and recognition were limited.
Broke as ever, when your vision's far it's tough to see things
Facing challenges when one's vision or perspective is limited.
And whenever we ate out, we might split an entrée
Recalling times of financial constraint, sharing meals and expenses.
Bank account with 3k, that's no relation to Andre
Highlighting a modest bank account balance, unrelated to the famous figure Andre.
And that would be a hot day save for rain, that's what my moms say
Reference to a challenging day, possibly hinted by the mention of rain.
I think just putting cash away is what she was trying to convey
Suggesting the importance of saving money for the future.
'Cause money comes, money goes, people twist a funny rose
Commenting on the unpredictable nature of money and people.
Anyone would tell you that one good girl's worth twenty ho's
Stressing the value of a loyal and genuine partner over superficial relationships.
Soon as I get right I'ma take care of you
Reiterating the commitment to take care of the partner once financial stability is achieved.
Swear I'm so prepared to love you
Expressing readiness and determination to love the partner, echoing a previous line.
Know there's no one there above you
Acknowledging the partner's unique and significant position, echoing a previous line.
