Lyrics

The song received particular attention for Lil Yachty's line "She blow that dick like a cello",[2][3][4] with Lil Yachty later stating to Genius that he thought a cello was a woodwind instrument, and blaming his A&R for "listen[ing] to that song many times" and "allow[ing him] to say that".[5]
