d3puu Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴I bet you wish that I was still right there, used to live right there
Now I'm everywhere, got bitches everywhere
I'm so devilish, I'm a millionaire
I act like I don't care, that's 'cause I don't care
Still right there, used to live right there
Now I'm everywhere, got bitches everywhere
I'm so devilish, I'm a millionaire
Money come in, but you can't lose it, oh
Shе's tryna make love, I'm tryna make movies (wait)
Woah, don't be crying, bitch, I do this
I stunt for real, these niggas students
From the front, my bitch a beauty
From the back, look at that booty
She wanna parlay with my goonies
I'm tryna get way with her roomie, hey roomie
I bet you wish that I was still right there, used to live right there
Now I'm everywhere, got bitches everywhere
I'm so devilish, I'm a millionaire
I act like I don't care, that's 'cause I don't care
Still right there, used to live right there
Now I'm everywhere, got bitches everywhere
I'm so devilish, I'm a millionaire
I act like I don't care, that's 'cause I don't care
Still right there, used to live right there
Now I'm everywhere, got bitches everywhere
I'm so devilish, I'm a millionaire
I act like I don't care, that's 'cause I don't care

I see you eating chicken, I see you smoking weed
I see you drinking, and making-, actually, you're barely making music
I'ma need you to drop more songs
'Cause "Dead Man Walking" was not satis-
I was not satisfied with it because I had already heard it before
And I'm gonna need you to drop a whole album this new year, 2021
I expected more from you, this is ridiculous, it is very ridiculous
So, you need to res- (message deleted)
I bet you wish that I was still right there, used to live right there
Now I'm everywhere, got bitches everywhere
I'm so devilish, I'm a millionaire
I act like I don't care, that's 'cause-
Overall Meaning

The singer boasts about having "bitches everywhere" and being a millionaire, suggesting that they have achieved financial and romantic success. They also mention how they act like they don't care, which could be interpreted as a defense mechanism to protect themselves from potential emotional vulnerability.
Towards the end of the song, there is a voicemail from someone who is frustrated with Brent Faiyaz for not releasing enough music. This could be interpreted as a commentary on the pressures of success and the expectations placed on artists to constantly produce and release new content. The song overall highlights the themes of wealth, power, and the struggle to maintain authenticity in the face of success.
