I'm outta the way with Pablo (yeah)
This n- swear that he El Chapo
He know not to play in my face
Yeah, I swear it's hard for him to keep my calm, ho (on God)
Kaliii brings in a playful reference to Pablo Escobar, which adds a fun twist to the narrative. This shows she's aware of the stakes in her lifestyle but still keeps it light. She’s confident in her ability to handle any drama that comes her way.
He be tweakin' 'cause he ain't my vato (nah)
In his pockets like I hit the lotto (ching)
I'ma get to this money, it's "f- these n-"
That's forever the motto (f- 'em)
This closing part of the verse really hammers home her independence. She’s not tied down to anyone and is focused on her own success. The catchy phrase about "f- these n-" shows her attitude towards relationships, prioritizing herself and her goals.
