Wasteland Lyrics

Yeah, yeah, uh
It's a long line, it's a wait
Asked me, could he take me on a date
I said, "Nigga, nah, never, nay"
I'm not in the room, I'm in L.A., baby (yeah)
Yeah, I'm not in the room (baby, baby, baby, baby)
I came here alone
Got a boy at home
It's a long line, it's a wait
Asked me, could he take me on a date
I said, "Nigga, nah, never, nay"
I'm not in the room, I'm in L.A., baby (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

I got bigger fish to fry (fry)
I can't tell a lie (lie)
Walk away from me (me)
That's my best advice (advice)
Chillin' in the hills (hills)
Hills Have Eyes (eyes)
Can't be seen with you (you)
You don't match my fly (fly)
Try to buy me lunch (lunch)
You gon' play the price (price)
Baby, play your role (role)
Don't forget your lines (lines)
My presence is a gift (gift)
Don't you act surprised ('prised)
Breaking all these hearts (hearts)
This should be a crime (yeah, yeah, ugh)

It's a long line, it's a wait
Asked me, could he take me on a date
I said, "Nigga, nah, never, nay"
I'm not in the room, I'm in L.A., baby (yeah)
Yeah, I'm not in the room (baby, baby, baby, baby)
I came here alone
Got a boy at home
It's a long line, it's a wait
Asked me, could he take me on a date
I said, "Nigga, nah, never, nay"
I'm not in the room, I'm in L.A., baby (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

I was brought up by myself (self)
And it's by choice (choice)
You was on a bike (bike)
I was Rolls Royce (Royce)
Act like Macho Man (man)
But you little boy (boy)
Say you 'bout your green (green)
Rest in peace to Troy (Troy)
We can't FaceTime (Time)
You got Android (no)
I try to avoid ('void)
I got to avoid (yeah)
All your checks are void (void)
I get so annoyed (yeah)
Say I'm acting 'Chi' (oh)
I'm from Illinois (Chi)

Uh
It's a long line, it's a wait
Asked me, could he take me on a date
I said, "Nigga, nah, never, nay"
I'm not in the room, I'm in L.A., baby (yeah)
Yeah, I'm not in the room (baby, baby, baby, baby)
I came here alone
Got a boy at home
It's a long line, it's a wait
Asked me, could he take me on a date
I said, "Nigga, nah, never, nay"
I'm not in the room, I'm in L.A., baby (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby

What is the Meaning of Wasteland?

In this lyrical narrative, the artist asserts her independence and self-worth amidst the relentless pursuit of potential suitors. The repeated line, "It's a long line, it's a wait," signifies the multitude of attention she receives, but she remains uninterested due to her commitment to someone else. The song showcases her high standards and refusal to settle for less, as seen in lines where she compares herself to a Rolls Royce and dismisses those who don't match her 'fly'. Furthermore, the references to being in LA and not in 'the room' could symbolize her elevated status in society or within the music industry. Ultimately, "Wasteland" is a powerful anthem of self-respect and discernment in relationships.
