Meek Mill

Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah
Sad to say it but I love you
Don't take no offense but you're my bitch

[Chorus]
Yeah, you gone fall through every time a nigga call you
That's why I ball how I ball when I spoil you
We was in Miami, first time I saw you
I was in a Phantom when I pulled up on you
It was late nights, late nights in the bando
Fucking on you good got you bustin' like you Rambo
And you keep it hood so you really understand though
You was there through my ups and downs like a camel

[Verse 1]
Ass all fat say she get it from her mama
She just want the money, she ain't fuckin' with no bloggers
Fuck you on a PJ the whole way to the Bahamas
Gucci, Valentino, baby, I can be your stylist
Fuck me with your friend, yeah yeah, you was wildin'
1942 shots turn you to a monster
Thuggin' like you 2Pac, you know that I got you
Love the way you ride it, move them hips like you Rihanna
I was supposed to hit, I was never s'pose to cuff you
Put you on my homie 'cause he say he wanna fuck you
When he asked me 'bout you, I just told him that I want you
But now its quiet for you, 'cause I told him that I loved you
[Chorus]
You gone fall through every time a nigga call you
That's why I ball how I ball when I spoil you
We was in Miami, first time I saw you
I was in a Phantom when I pulled up on you
It was late nights, late nights in the bando
Fucking on you good got you bustin' like you Rambo
And you keep it hood so you really understand though
You was there through my ups and downs like a camel

[Verse 2]
I was locked up, I remember when I hit you
Used to write me back every letter that I sent you
You wasn't my girl but you used to pretend to
When I came home, let me beat it instrumental
Lame left you scarred so I had to reinvent you
If you was car, shit, you ride it like a Benz do
Wraith it with the stars, every time I come and get you
We be goin' hard every time you on that Hen' too
I was in the mix, actin' like a savage
Got another bitch and you told me I could have it
I know you was sick so I doubled back to grab you
So anything you wish, yeah yeah, you can have it

[Chorus]
You gone fall through every time a nigga call you
That's why I ball how I ball when I spoil you
We was in Miami, first time I saw you
I was in a Phantom when I pulled up on you
It was late nights, late nights in the bando
Fucking on you good got you bustin' like you Rambo
And you keep it hood so you really understand though
You was there through my ups and downs like a camel
[Bridge]
Whoa, she just want a ride with a shotta, though
I'm an original don dada, though
Knock them all down like dominoes
Make me tell them other bitches, vamonos
Whoa, good gal, bad gal, small city, mad world
She just wanna shine, whoa
And last night was mad real, sunshades, advils, fuck you all the time

[Chorus]
You gone fall through every time a nigga call you
That's why I ball how I ball when I spoil you
We was in Miami, first time I saw you
I was in a Phantom when I pulled up on you
It was late nights, late nights in the bando
Fucking on you good got you bustin' like you Rambo
And you keep it hood so you really understand though
You was there through my ups and downs like a camel

If you're looking for a song that beautifully describes falling in love, then you're in the right place. Meek Mill's "Fall Thru" is a track about a man who meets a woman he falls in love with after seeing her for the first time in Miami. The rapper who is known for his storytelling skills, switched to a softer and more vulnerable approach with this song- showcasing a different side of his musicality.

The song's lyrics begin with Meek Mill seeing the love of his life for the first time, as he pulls up in his car, a Phantom. From the first verse, it is clear that the songwriter is smitten by the woman. With this song being somewhat of a departure from his conventional style, fans of him have fallen in love with the change of pace.

About Fall Thru

“Fall Thru” is the ninth track on Meek Mill’s forth album, Wins & Losses, which was released on July 21, 2017. The album debuted on the US Billboard top 200 at number 3, and “Fall Thru” has consistently been one of the most streamed songs from the project. Produced by Canadian Major 6 and Cubeatz, the song has a warm and happy vibe that makes it stand out among the other tracks on the album.

"Fall Thru" starts with the line, "Yeah, Sad to say it, but I love you, Don't take no offense but you're my bitch", a verse that got a lot of traction when the song was first released, with some labelling it as "problematic". Critics and fans alike interpreted the song to be about Meek Mill's girlfriend at the time, Nicki Minaj. Though this was never confirmed nor denied, the line made waves online and sparkled gossip about the couple’s relationship.

As the title suggests, "Fall Thru" is about the act of falling, whether that's falling in love or falling out of love. Meek Mill raps about a relationship that seems to be going smoothly with both parties falling for each other. He says, "I just wanna chill and twist a lot" implying that he wants to spend more time with his love interest. The song's chorus, "Yeah, I wanna know, I wanna know, if you're willing to fall through" is almost an inquiry into whether the woman also sees a future with him and is willing to choose him as well.

Despite being perceived as one of his more commercial songs, “Fall Thru” stands out amongst the rest as it highlights Meek Mill’s growth as a rapper and his ability to put his vulnerable side to the forefront of his music. The catchy hook, strong bars, and smooth beat make it one of his most popular songs to date. It has been streamed over 100 million times on Spotify and has amassed over 65 million views on Youtube, affirming its position as one of the rapper's most recognizable works.

Bottomline

“Fall Thru” is a song that captures the essence of falling in love and being vulnerable. Meek Mill’s willingness to open up about love and romance, and the production of Major 6 and Cubeatz has created a memorable track having connected with fans around the world. "Fall Thru" may differ from Meek Mill's usual style, but it shows his versatility as an artist and should be appreciated as such. It has become one of his most resonating and popular songs, and there's no denying that it will continue to remain a fan favorite for years to come.
