Next To It Lyrics

[Produced By: Ty Dolla $ign & Shafiq Husayn]

[Intro: Lupe Fiasco]
What it say?
Next to it, next to it, to it, to it, to it, to it
Ne-next to it, to it, to it, to it, to it, to it
Hey, what it say?
Uhh, uhh, uhh

[Verse 1: Lupe Fiasco]
Money ain't shit when there's wealth next to it
Wealth ain't shit when there's health next to it
In the lane with nobody else next to it
Ain't get here by myself, lot of help next to it
Word to Chilly Chill, that's myself, let's do it
1st and 15th ENT, FNF music
Album number five, ayy nigga, let's do it
Don't say my name 'less my city next to it

Anything look good with a titty next to it
And the titty got a face that's pretty next to it
Riding 'round town, something really exclusive
Bump a little Pac with some Biggie next to it
Nigga, that's love with a twist next to it
Nigga, that's a Blood with a Crip next to it

At the Bulls game like a tree gift next to it
Yes nigga, that's the floor and I sit next to it
, let's do it
[Hook: Ty Dolla $ign]
Everything look better with a bitch next to it
Rollie on the wrist, let's do this
Top down on a whip that's roofless
Ain't impressed, it's the bitch that do it
Let's do it
Club ain't turnt 'less some bitches into it
It's the bitch that do it

Yeah, yeah

[Verse 3: Lupe Fiasco]
Nigga, my hood, feel like Heaven
With third worlds next to it

But nigga we good, and we'll be even better
With thirty girls next to us

Yeah, the White House had a trap next to it
Yeah nigga, that's a fact next to it
My house had a trap next to it

Ayy nigga, where's the house? Let's do it
Your chest ain't shit 'less a chain next to it
Chain ain't shit 'less gold next to it
But gold ain't shit when a diamond next to it

Your beat ain't shit 'less I'm rhyming next to it
Hah, hah, shining next to it
Shit ain't real, can't find her next to it
Nigga, let's park it on the red carpet
Grammy Awards, my momma next to it, let's do it
[Hook: Ty Dolla $ign]
Everything look better with a bitch next to it
Rollie on the wrist, let's do this
Top down on a whip that's roofless
Ain't impressed, it's the bitch that do it
Let's do it
Club ain't turnt 'less some bitches into it
It's the bitch that do it

Yeah, yeah

[Outro: Lupe Fiasco]
To it, to it, to it
Next to it, next to it, to it, to it, to it
Next to it, next to it, to it, to it, to it
Next, next to it, to it, yeah

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part

Genius Annotation

“Next To It” was the second promotional single of his fifth studio album, Tetsuo & Youth, being “Mission” the first.

The track features singing and production by Ty Dolla $ign, who in an interview with Complex, praised Lupe speaking about their single:

“He’s definitely in my Top 10 now. I don’t know why I wasn’t paying attention but after I did that song with him. I’ve done songs with a lot of people right? This nigga right here, me and Shafiq did the beat, he gave me an idea for the hook, I went in and did the hook, and then he went in the booth and just spit the whole fucking song, dog. I promise you it was off the top of the head, no written. The whole song. Probably went back and changed like two fuck-ups. I’ve never seen that done before. Lupe is that guy.”
