Remember this, girls
None of you can be first, but all of you can be next
Woo, woo

Ah, uh, yeah, uh
Wow, uh, yeah, uh
Wow, uh, yeah
It's like takin' candy from a baby
Wow, uh, yeah, uh
Ah, uh, ayy, uh
Yeah, uh, wow
It's like takin' candy from a (ride a, ride a)

Ride a coattail, this isn't my fourth meal
Dishes on my ass, still I'm thicker than some oatmeal
Glass houses, I don't really like to keep my stones there
Oh, well, I'll buy another property for four mill'
Doorman said that you gon' have to leave your phones there
On a boat, yeah (boat, yeah), it's really no fair (no fair)
The only problem that I have and I'll be so real
I hit the stage and lose the crystals on my toenails (yeah)
Make the ho kneel, she kill it like an O'Neil
Makin' mo' bills 'til I copped the mobile
Can't drive 'cause I really don't need to
Got some professionals, they're really nice people

Ah, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
It's like takin' candy from a baby
Uh (mh), wow (yeah, huh), yeah (uh)
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh (huh, said), wow
It's like takin' candy from a baby

So easy, so cheesy, so fresh
So queasy, so nauseous, so sick (blegh)
Is it coke? Is it crack? Is it meth? (Is it?)
What the fuck do she put in them hits?
I'm the shit, you a real piece of shit
I am needed, you a real needy bitch
I'm competing, you are incompetent
You are fleeting 'cause you can't copy this
Copy this (copy this), copy that (copy that)
Every bitch that is here copycat (rawr)
Copy the greats, that's my number one strategy
But beware that you can't copy stats

Ah, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
It's like takin' candy from a baby
Uh, wow, uh, yeah
Uh, ha, uh, ayy




Uh, yeah, uh, wow
It's like takin' candy from a baby

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Balut" by Doja Cat convey a sense of confidence and superiority. In the first verse, Doja Cat asserts that while no one can be the first in a particular situation, everyone can have their turn or be next. This can be interpreted as an encouragement to be patient and wait for one's opportunity to shine or succeed.


The chorus of the song emphasizes the ease with which Doja Cat achieves her goals. She compares it to taking candy from a baby, suggesting that accomplishing her desires comes effortlessly to her. This metaphor may also insinuate that she finds pleasure in dominating her challenges and effortlessly surpassing them.


In the second verse, Doja Cat describes her success and status. She refers to riding on someone else's coattails, but clarifies that it is not her "fourth meal," implying that she is not reliant on others for her own accomplishments. She also mentions the luxury of her lifestyle, with references to glass houses and buying properties worth millions. This further reinforces her sense of superiority and wealth.


Doja Cat then addresses her talent, highlighting her ability to captivate audiences and make money. She mentions losing crystals on her toenails during performances, which can be interpreted as a reference to her energetic stage presence. She also asserts her ability to make others "kneel" and references making more money until she was able to purchase a mobile (possibly referring to a fancy car). The line about professionals being "really nice people" could suggest that she surrounds herself with competent and trustworthy individuals.


The bridge of the song criticizes those who try to copy Doja Cat's style and success. She playfully questions if her success is due to drugs, but then suggests that it is her unique talent and artistry that contribute to her hit songs. She contrasts herself with others, describing herself as "the shit" while calling her competitors "real needy bitches" and incompetent. She warns that while others may try to copy her, they cannot replicate her achievements or statistics.


Overall, "Balut" is a boastful and self-assured track that showcases Doja Cat's confidence and success, while also addressing those who may try to imitate her. The lyrics convey a sense of dominance and superiority, emphasizing her ability to effortlessly achieve her desires and overcome challenges.

satan comes to kill, steal and destroy. he hates God's creation and his job is to destroy it and to take as many souls with him into hell. Your soul is the most valuable thing on this planet and there is a war between God and satan for your soul.

WAKE UP PEOPLE! THESE CELEBS SERVE SATAN AND ARE LEADING YOU INTO HELL WITH THEM.

They sold their soul for fame/fortune. You blindly follow these people and you dont even get earthly treasures for it. Even so God's word says, "what does it profit a man to gain the whole world but forfeit his soul."

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."-John 14:6
"But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in Heaven."-Matthew 10:33

“For the wages of sin is death (hell), but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord”-Romans 6:23

@Jesus_IsKing11

Jesus Christ loves you all! He loves you so much that he died on the cross for your sins. Please accept him as your lord and savior and you will be saved! Please give your life to Christ today and turn away from the devil. Hell is real and it will last forever! It’s not something to joke about. God has given everyone a opportunity at salvation through repentance and accepting Christ as their own personal Lord and savior. Please take what I’m saying seriously. They’re is a battle for your soul either your with God or your with the devil you gotta pick a side.



“ You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons.” (1 Corinthians 10:21)



“the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 6:23).”



God won’t force you to do anything. So if you choose to reject God that’s on you. God will just do the same to you as you do to him. You have no reason to blame God when judgment day comes. Please don’t make the mistake of waiting until you feel like your “ready” to live for God. Because tomorrow is never guaranteed. God wants a loving relationship with you right now. What’s stopping you from trying? The answer is nothing! You lose nothing when you give your life to Christ you will only gain once you accept God into your heart. Not only will you receive salvation but you will gain the amazing fruits of the spirit.



“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.” (Galatians 5:22-23)



One more thing. This has to be the number one thing most Christians struggle with. One of the most important things you must do is to repent of your sins daily! I can not stress how important repentance is.

“No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God.” (1 John 3:9)



“No one who lives in him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen him or known him. (1 John 3:6)



This isn’t to say you won’t ever sin again because that’s quite simply impossible. No one is perfect. It’s the effort that counts. And God will know if your making a effort or not. He knows your heart.



“Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, But the LORD weighs the hearts.” (Proverbs 21:2)



What does true repentance look like?

True repentance leads a person to say, "I have sinned" and prove it with a 180-degree change of their direction.

Repentance requires true brokenness.

Repentance is NOT asking the Lord for forgiveness with the intent to sin again.

Repentance is an honest, regretful acknowledgement of sin with commitment to change.

Repentance leads us to cultivate Godliness while eradicating habits that lead into sin.



Congratulations! You did it! To the person reading this. If you made it this far. I just want to say, you won't regret this decision! This will be a forever life changing moment for you. And God is happy too! =) I hope to see you in paradise!



My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. (John 10:27-29)
