[Chorus]
You know that you're my girl
And I love it, babe, but I wanna know
Not in my ride, in my bed
But I wanna know
I wanna know, babe, tell me if it's real, if it's real
You a warrior in that battlefield, battlefield
Steady green like it's cabbage deals, cabbage deal
Why? Why? Yeah

[Post-Chorus 1]
Tell me why, why, why you still rushin', baby? I wanna know
Ain't got nothin' to hide or disguise
It's all on the table, baby, just lettin' you know
I'm a warrior with a killin' skill
Most of these monkey niggas greener than a dollar bill, dollar bill
Continuously askin' the same questions like, "Why? Why?"

[Pre-Verse]
I'm on house arrest, but it's the rich one
Diamonds on my ankles, I'm slightly skatin', yeah
Ooh, a trillion like wow, wow

[Verse]
Just a billion-dollar baby with a trillion-dollar baby
I'm in a rush, baby, stay there
Make one move, I'll do mayhem, yeah
Niggas targeting us black men, yeah
I can see you on the spycam
Police brutality at any cop camps
Shoot you a hunnid times, can't tell if you a man or ma'am

[Chorus]
You know that you're my girl
And I love it, babe, but I wanna know
Not in my ride, in my bed
But I wanna know
I wanna know, babe, tell me if it's real, if it's real
You a warrior in that battlefield, battlefield
Steady green like it's cabbage deals, cabbage deal
Why? Why? Yeah

[Post-Chorus 2]
You've got a look in your eyes
I can tell somethin' wrong but you still won't let me know
'Ya tears racin' from the front and the side, oh, baby, I wanna know
Is you a warrior with a killer skill?
Most of these monkey niggas greener than a dollar bill, dollar bill
Continuously askin' the same questions like, "Why? Why?"

[Bridge]
Ooh, hah, ooh, whose luck is down?
You've been dropped, don't look down
Ooh, tonight, yeah, all, all night

[Chorus]
You know that you're my girl
And I love it, babe, but I wanna know
Not in my ride, in my bed
But I wanna know
I wanna know, babe, tell me if it's real, if it's real
You a warrior in that battlefield, battlefield
Steady green like it's cabbage deals, cabbage deal
Why? Why? Yeah

[Post-Chorus 1]
Tell me why, why, why you still rushin', baby? I wanna know
Ain't got nothin' to hide or disguise
It's all on the table, baby, just lettin' you know
I'm a warrior with a killin' skill
Most of these monkey niggas greener than a dollar bill, dollar bill
Continuously askin' the same questions like, "Why? Why?"

Jeffery Lamar Williams (b. August 16, 1991), popularly known as Young Thug, is an innovative trap artist from Atlanta known for his experimental vocal styles on versatile production ranging from hard trap beats to experimental pop records. Thug is known as a pioneer for much of the 2010s generation of rap, and his constant cosigns, features, and chart presence cement his status as a leader in the streaming era and current rap scene.

While Young Thug released his first mixtape in 2011, it wasn’t until fellow ATL trap artist Gucci Mane took Thug under his wing in 2013 that he began to see great success as an artist. That year, Thug released his first major hit, “Stoner,” which quickly gained viral traction on social media, then “Danny Glover,” which propelled him to an even larger scale of success. After Gucci Mane went to prison in 2013, Thug saw success by re-aligning himself with Cash Money Records’s own Birdman and his newly-formed Rich Gang collective with the hit single “Lifestyle” and a collaborative mixtape before officially signing to 300 Ent. in 2015. Under 300, Thug continued to release many more singles, mixtapes, and features, gradually boosting his popularity before releasing his debut album, So Much Fun, which topped the Billboard 200 on August 31, 2019.

After 2015’s “Best Friend” became Thug’s first platinum single, his 2016 collaboration with Travis Scott, “pick up the phone,” became his new highest-charting song on the Billboard Hot 100. This would later be succeeded by “Havana” with Camila Cabello, the best-selling single of 2018. However, his current highest-charting song as lead artist is “Hot,” which topped the Rolling Stone 100 and peaked at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100, surpassing his previous biggest hit, “The London,” which peaked at #12 on the Billboard Hot 100.
