Redbone

[Intro: Cowboy Shiesty & Lil Baby]
Y’all know how cold it is in, like, Antarctica or, like, Alaska or, you know, like, like, an iceberg
You know how, how cold that is?
That’s how cool I am on a bitch, for real, twin
Yeah, yeah, yeah (LeeBoy on the track)

[Chorus: Lil Baby]
They did not stop makin’ bad bitches when they made you (On God)
Redbone, slim thick shit, she only twenty-two (True story)

[Verse 1: Lil Baby]
Know she due for a lil’ workout, pull up on me, Lululemon
Got a tan, I let her lay out by the pool, we got plenty
Soon as I lock in, I lock in, if I want it, I’m gon’ get it
I’m so hood, nigga, so high-class, my ‘Rari truck, I rent ’em
Like I’m paralyzed and my spine broke, can’t turn my back on my twin
I’m so D-boy and I stay fresh, went Louis Vuitton on my Timb’
I’m so damn smooth, I snipe shit, I ain’t never speakin’ on the business
She know she mine when I’m in town, you can have her back when I’m finished

[Chorus: Lil Baby & GloRilla]
They did not stop makin’ bad bitches when they made you (On God)
Redbone, slim thick shit, she only twenty-two (GloRilla, yeah, yeah)
They did not stop makin’ bad bitches when they made you (On God)
Redbone, slim thick shit, she only twenty-two (Huh, huh, on gang, gang)

[Verse 2: GloRilla]
Hold up, stop the beat, Lil Baby, let me talk my shit
Ayy, my ex say I be shittin’ on him, I’m genuinely poppin’ shit (Ugh)
All my opps still broke as hell (Damn), ain’t that ’bout a bitch?
I don’t do no young niggas, my youngest ho like thirty-six (On God)
Actin’ stingy with the dick, he must don’t think that I’m a whore (Huh?)
They did not stop makin’ good dick when they made yours (The fuck?)
Better be lucky that I like you ’cause these niggas gettin’ ignored
Boy, don’t play with me, I get niggas, you like one of four, duh
I don’t think about you hoes (No), I just think I’m the shit (On God)
Y’all know any occasion, I walk in, I’m fresher than a bitch (Stamp that)
I ain’t beggin’ no nigga to stay (The fuck?), I’m quick to let him leave
Yeah, it’s a million more bad bitches, but ain’t none of them bitches me (On gang)

[Chorus: Lil Baby]
They did not stop makin’ bad bitches when they made you (On God)
Redbone, slim thick shit, she only twenty-two (True story)
They did not stop makin’ bad bitches when they made you (On God)
Redbone, slim thick shit, she only twenty-two

[Outro: Lil Baby]
Get it, mama, have fun with it
Get it, mama, have fun with it
Get it, mama, have fun with it
Get it, mama, have fun with it

SONG MEANING

“Redbone (feat. GloRilla)” explores the tension and chemistry between powerful individuals navigating love, status, and street life. Lil Baby raps about being drawn to a high-maintenance, light-skinned woman with attitude and edge, someone who matches his hustle but also challenges his control. He reflects on loyalty, attraction, and the games people play in relationships shaped by wealth and survival. GloRilla flips the narrative with a fierce response, portraying herself as the redbone who’s independent, unapologetic, and just as street-smart—refusing to be played or controlled. Together, the song becomes a bold back-and-forth on dominance, respect, and the raw reality of love in a high-stakes world.
