EGYPT Lyrics

[Intro: Doechii & Westside Gunn]
One-hundred percent
You know, recently I been into a lot of MF DOOM (Okay)
Rest in peace (Yup)
I’ve been into a lot of MF DOOM, uhm
Westside Gunn (Mhm), love him, he’s so talented (Super)
So incredible
Ayo
Brrt, ayo (Griselda by Fashion Rebels)
Ayo

[Verse: Westside Gunn]
I was just chillin’, but the tennis still dancin’ (Ah)
Shot dropped forty, I was courtside handsome (Ah)
Forty tucked on me, scorpions on the visit (Boom-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Fiend ain’t have it, hit they moms for the ransom (Ah)
“I need Fifty”, had to do a demo on camera (Woop)
Hit the brick with the Psycho cutter like Ciampa (Mm)
Don’t watch close, Chloe never seen a hamper (Uh-uh)
FLYGOD Junior had cracks in his Pamper (Ah)
I’m that fuckin’ nigga, you know it
Balenci over socks, sweatshirt with the blower (Boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Two-tone Virgil on the curb by the MoMA (Skrrt)
Daytona wristes, taste too exquisite (Ah)
Saint Laurent pictures, my bitch mind her business (Ah)
Glock in your mouth, got the barrel by your wisdom (Woop)
Stripes on the ceilin’, this a Thom Browne kitchen (Whip)
Thirty-six opps outside the projects itchin’ (Ah)
Niggas prayin’ on my downfall, they be wishin’ (Peace, lord)
They never had “Paris” written on the dishes (Uh-uh)
They never had the Cullinan near the trenches (Uh-uh)
East side nigga, I’m a cocaine wizard (Whip)
Just sold twenty-five bricks on the cricket (Mm)
A dollar short, your nan at the door like, “Who is it?” (Bing)
I’m that fuckin’ nigga, yeah, I’m on my own dick
Ritz-Carlton Egypt, I’m gettin’ homesick (Ah)

[Outro: Doechii]
I just feel like, I just feel like the underdog (Mm)
Feel like the underdog and I just feel like, “Stop playin’ with me”
(Griselda by Fashion Rebels)

EGYPT Lyrics Meaning

[Intro: Doechii & Westside Gunn]
Doechii begins by paying homage to MF DOOM and praising Westside Gunn’s talent, aligning him with the legacy of alternative and underground hip-hop excellence. Her sincere admiration sets a reflective, almost reverent tone. Westside Gunn then jumps in with his signature ad-libs and brand callout, “Griselda by Fashion Rebels,” positioning himself as a torchbearer for raw artistry and high-concept street narratives.

[Verse: Westside Gunn]
This verse showcases Westside Gunn’s ability to weave brutal realism with luxurious detail. He narrates moments of street activity—from holding firearms courtside to executing drug deals and holding hostages for ransom—with an effortless elegance. The imagery of high-end fashion (Balenci, Virgil, Thom Browne) contrasts with grimy environments (cracks in diapers, thirty-six enemies itching for violence), reflecting a life of duality. His declaration of self-worth (“I’m on my own dick”) emphasizes his confidence, and the final line—set in a Ritz-Carlton in Egypt—closes the verse with a note of emotional displacement and homesickness despite success.

[Outro: Doechii]
Doechii returns with a heartfelt reflection, identifying herself as the underdog and demanding to be taken seriously. Her words echo the song’s underlying message of overcoming doubt and adversity. Paired with Westside Gunn’s dominance, her closing words add dimension, speaking for every overlooked voice ready to claim space and respect in the culture.
