[Intro: RetroSpectro]

Yo Make sure yall follow me on twitter at Retro_Spectro_

Its ya Boy Jay noooooooootes!

Where my background singer star kid?

You know how that go


[Verse 1: RetroSpectro]

Look, walk in, feet clean

Model chick, side hoe try to intervene

I'm me, I'm too real

Get a bottle, pay the bill

Drop top, on a Range Rover

Got green with me, Like a four leaf clover

Deer Park, got to hydrate

Billboards, Myspace

Red leather, red wraith

Talk hard, get a red face

Use caution, when you at the top

Red light, so we gotta stop

Dab Daddy, Dab king

Double line, don't switch lanes

Mac Book, with the Bag Book

I mean book bag, toe tag

I phone, Drum pad

Turn it up, speakers blast

Tripod, three legs

Living room, but they all dead


[Verse 2: RetroSpectro]

Light switch, turn it off

Smoke weed, gotta cough

All night, on sight

Blue sky, blue kite

Rooftop, penthouse, face to face

You a church mouse

Bed sheet, with a cover too

When i'm in the cut you know i

Gotta have a cup or two

Trucker Hat, Trigger happy

Dreads lock and my dreads nappy

Pour up when i'm feeling crappy

I'm on a schedule lets make it snappy

Two arms, two hands, all white like the ku klan

Ten fingers with ten toes

Two eyes, one nose

Phone dead, no charge

Big house, big yard

Back flip , fork spoon

Twelve o clock, afternoon

Cellphone with a phone case

New show at her new place

Old money with a new whip

Belt loop , phone clip

Night time, Dark sky

Big booty with thick thighs

I tell the truth, I don't Lie

Dirty Room pig sty


[Outro: RetroSpectro]

Aye I didn't wanna give yall too much man

But you know I'm saying when retro get on the track

You know he gotta do, what he gotta do

You already know its JUST SOMETHING LIGHT

You know we dress for the seasons

Got my boy star kid in the back with me

You already know how that go

Star kids to the right with me

You already know how that go

Star kids over there in the corner

You know how that go

Aye, LeanSquad The best!

ANOTHER ONE!!

He doesn’t want to get caught with his side bitch so he gives his new show at her new crib opposed to his. Fmot: zion_rich

So high Retro flying blue kites in blue skys during night time cause he can do shit like that #yeetsquad

“Living room, but they all dead”
👍 -3
×

Niles clearly states that when he’s feeling isolated he transforms into a “white kid” who has also been spotted in numerous videos.

PROPOSED SUGGESTION: Retro plays on the words “living room” and “dead”. As Lil Wayne did when he said “ leave em dead in the living room”

“Belt loop , phone clip”

Niles is basically reminding his fans that they already know he is gonna rip them butcheeks apart. In this line he also uses his knowledge and lyrical word play making a reference to Drake’s “Know yourself”.

“Pour up when i’m feeling crappy”

When retro isn’t feeling good (emotional I’m assuming) he begins to drink.

He has money. Money is green like a four leaf clover

Retro Spectro loves booty

“Billboards, Myspace”

Retro is saying here that he is everywhere and is blowing up. He highlights this by using two outdated forms of marketing and communication. Both Billboards and Myspace are seen as relics of the past and it would be rare to see someone find their way to those platforms, but etro knows that he is getting so big that even on Billboards and Myspace you will find him.

You know this

“Mac Book, with the Bag Book I mean book bag, toe tag”
👍 13
×

Retro displays his cleverness and ability to play on words by saying a word incorrectly to give it a double meaning. At first glance it seems as though he is simply saying book bag incorrectly, but the second line reveals his true intention. When Retro says toe tag it becomes clear that he is in fact alluding to dead bodies.

Bag and book are both popular terms in police lingo. The expression, “bag em and tag em” is used by police when they conclude collecting evidence in cases where someone has died.

This ties in with the last line of this verse also when Retro divulges that he is in a living room but everyone is dead.

“Model chick, side hoe try to intervene I’m me, I’m too real”

He is with a model woman when his second girl he is in a relationship with on the side steps in and causes problems between the two of them. He dont care because he’s just livin how he lives and he don’t live no lie

“Get a bottle, pay the bill”

He purchases an alcoholic beverage and promptly pays for it

Watch your back when you’re at the top, never know who may be plotting against you.

Whenever Niles is on the track, he spits fire

“Red leather, red wraith Talk hard, get a red face”

He’s got red leather in his red Rolls Royce Wraith (I don’t think he actually has one) and if you talk hard you’re gonna have a bloody face after he’s done with you

His schedule is busy, so he would appreciate it if you would hurry up.

“Drop top, on a Range Rover”

Retro says he wants a droptop Range Rover

“Cellphone with a phone case”

Retro is very careful and has a case for his phone. This relates to how careful he is about protection. In other words, he wears condoms.

Spectro isnt tryna give out all his bars.

“ANOTHER ONE!!”
👍 4
×

A direct reference to DJ Khaled’s “Another One” phrase which has spread all over social media. here’s a clip of him saying “Another One” in the music video “How Many Times”

https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/watch?v=cZr7kTBv8bI

Besides the music video, there’s also a vine of him saying “Another One” to the viner Jordan Tugrul

https://vine.co/v/eHa0DVz2Dtm

Retro Spectro uses the Phrase “Another One” to tell us that he may have another hit in store for us
(just something light)

“Bed sheet, with a cover too When i’m in the cut you know i Gotta have a cup or two”
👍 2
×

Whenever Niles is at the function, he has to have “a cup or two” of either alcohol or lean to get him hype for the party

He rhymes this with the previous line stating that he owns a bed sheet, but don’t forget he owns a cover also. Based on Niles' lyrical genius, your girl is most likely in one of these.

“Twelve o clock, afternoon”

When it’s 12 o'clock it’s either midnight or afternoon. And we don’t fuck with midnight so it has to be afternoon. Fmot:zion_rich

“Old money with a new whip”
👍 1
×

Retro is saying his money is old and probably came from his mother since it wasn’t originally his.

His fictional mother is also known to be quite vicious with the whip (not the dance, the belt).

This line is possibly the most creative in the entire song since it ties together both his real mother and the fictional mother he has in his videos. His old money shows that his mother in real life supports him and has even helped him purchase a new whip, but at the same time alludes to the same hazardous whoopings he receives in his videos from a more fictional maternal figure.
