About This Track

Desiigner arrives on 'Caliber' with a trap track built on NickFRSH's beat, the production credited in the intro. The song stakes out familiar ground: money, intoxication, and a posture of menace compressed into the repeated word that gives the track its title. The hook cycles through variations of the same boast, each repetition a small shift in emphasis rather than a development. The verses pile on detail without much narrative arc. Desiigner moves between images of drug use, wealth, and violence with the flat affect of someone reading from a ledger. There is no story here, no character arc; the song is texture and repetition, a showcase for how a single idea can be stretched across four minutes by changing a few words at a time. It works as pure rhythm, less as a statement.

"Caliber" is a track by Desiigner, from the album New English, released 26th June 2016. Full lyrics are available below.

[Intro]

Oh, y'all ain't know this was a NickFRSH beat? Hahaha

Oh, y'all ain't know this was a NickFRSH beat? Hahaha

[Chorus]

I make a lot of new different money

Trap overnight, it's like fifty summie

Finesse up the plug while I'm gettin' blunted

Caliber, caliber, caliber

Caliber, caliber, sick somebody

Caliber, caliber, rip somebody

Caliber, caliber, caliber

[Verse]

I make a lot of new different money

All my killas pull up and they gettin' blunted

Finna drink up the mud, now I'm gettin' mudded

Caliber, caliber, caliber

Caliber, caliber, hit somebody

Silencer, silencer, ring somebody

Outy boy, outy boy in an Audi

Free my boy, white boy gon get 'em

Free my boy white, go get him Follie

All this lean I poured, I should get a Molly

Sniff the coco right up cause your bitch got problems

Wildin' boy, wildin' boy, wildin' boy

Life of Desiigner be stylin' boy

Mike on the wheel and I drive the toy

You get robbed or get jigg or you got extort

[Bridge]

Tell 'em talk shit, tell 'em talk shit, I'ma keep throwin'

That's your bitch, that's your bitch, that be deep throatin'

We be swipin' cards, we be gettin' money, there's weed blowin'

That's lean drippin', we lean drippin', that's Cee-lo in

We be rollin' 6s, tell 'em roll with me

You gon' go get it? We gon' go get 'em

All my niggas got it, all my niggas with it

We got bad strippers, we got niggas with it

Git, git!

[Chorus]

Finesse up the plug while I'm gettin' cuddie
