The lyrics revolve around topics including wealth and fashion. In the first verse, Tyler, the Creator makes puns based on a PlayStation controller, acknowledges the habit of many rappers to spend money on jewelry with a mention of designer Ben Baller, and boasts his income with lines about buying "COMME blouses"  and packing houses with "some Leo Dicaps and some Cole Sprouses". ASAP Rocky performs the second verse, in which he references rapper Lil B and his group The Pack's song "Vans" and insists twice that his designer bag is "not a purse, it's a satchel." He later gives his stance on the state of hip hop and the new wave generation of artists that have been called mumble rappers,    defending them and taking a dig at the older generation who look down upon them, with a reference to the criticism of the 2018 XXL Freshman Class. Rocky also shouts out to hip hop group Shabazz Palaces.
