About This Track

'Blind' opens the deluxe edition with a guitar-driven production that leans toward pop and contemporary R&B rather than the harder-hitting sound of the album's earlier tracks. DaBaby frames the song as a meditation on sudden success, adopting a sing-song delivery before Young Thug takes over the second half, bringing his characteristic quirkiness to the arrangement. The chorus anchors itself in a simple metaphor: access and visibility as sight itself, the doors opening now that he's found the key. DaBaby's verse moves between boastfulness and reflection, cataloguing his ascent from obscurity to chart dominance whilst maintaining a posture of almost careless confidence. He raps about his rate for verses, his versatility, and the speed of his rise, all delivered with the kind of casual certainty that suggests he's already moved past surprise at his own trajectory. Young Thug's contribution shifts the tone, introducing personal detail and a looser melodic sensibility that contrasts with DaBaby's more structured flow, creating a dynamic tension between the two voices across the track's six-minute span.

"BLIND" is a track by DaBaby, from the album BLAME IT ON BABY (DELUXE), released 4th August 2020. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

BLIND

[Intro: DaBaby]

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I've been blind for a while now

[Chorus: DaBaby]

I just got the key, they let me in, no ID

Doors openin' up for me and now I see

I've been blind for a while now

I've been blind for a while now (Ayy, I've been blind, hey)

[Verse 1: DaBaby]

Every single goddamn day, a nigga think he next to leak it (Next to who?)

Tomatoes, mustard, mayonnaise

Nigga better catch up, catch up, catch up, catch up (Yup, yup, yup)

Thankful that my head too hard for me to learn my lesson (My head too goddamn hard)

'Cause the way I did it worked out fine, ooh, God you blessed me (Amen)

Probably ain't believe me

Know a nigga went through hell and back, now he finally on the TV (Yeah)

Now a nigga don't even give a fuck no more, probably think it's easy

Let you know it ain't easy

I fuck her like a Bathing Ape, she run from the dick like a cheetah (Go)

Two-tone AP watch on, never see me use it for a clock (Tick, tock)

They see the way he fuckin' up the charts (Hmm)

I wonder is he ever gon' stop?

And he charge a hundred-fifty for the verses now

Pay it or he never ever drop

They noticed that a nigga music versatile

Wonder if he ever goin' pop? (Go)

[Chorus: DaBaby & Young Thug]

I just got the key, they let me in, no ID

Doors openin' up for me and now I see

I've been blind for a while now (Blind)

I've been blind for a while now (Blind)

Let's go

I just got the key, they let me in, no ID

Doors openin' up for me and now I see

I've been blind for a while now

I've been blind for a while now

[Verse 2: Young Thug]

Yeah

I've been quarantined, livin' with my kiddies

Tryna teach me how to cha-cha, woah

Fucked around, left the door open

Now they know that they can't stop me

Don't place me in no cop car

Yeah, I'm off probation, so it's gas I blow

I found love in my bitch, so I don't ask no more

I can really sit back, ain't gotta pass no dough

All of my brothers get loot, I don't got ride with pistols (Yeah)

They found him dead, he dissed you (Woah)

PTDS, don't you tell me you lost me (Woo)

Fuck all the rest, none them bitches are a nominee

Go to the head whenever dogs with me die

Got me riding 'til the sun come, blood on my white 1's

[Chorus: Young Thug, DaBaby & Both]

I just got the key, they let me in, no ID

Doors openin' up for me and now I see

I've been blind for a while now (Blind)

Yeah, I've been blind for a while now, yeah (Let's go)

I just got the key, they let me in, no ID

Doors openin' up for me and now I see

I've been blind for a while now

I've been blind for a while now (Yeah)
