  And the hero worship of his fans now he's a bonafide celebrity:
  
  If we fly commercial, we got greeters
  They just know that we important people
  They see how we comin', think we ghetto
  Until their children tell 'em I'm their hero
• "Heyy" is not all flexing and boasts. Baby throws is some socially conscious rhymes such as some good advice from his nana. Now that he's a rap star, Baby is passing it on to the hood.
  
  Yeah, stay down, hustle hard until you come up
  Take some, only when you need it
  You won't make it far bein' greedy
  My grandma taught me how to be a leader
• During the chorus, Lil Baby continues to revel in his successful life. He uses the song's title as a general call-out term.
  
  Soon as it pop, bro, pull that fire out
  Hey-hey-hey, hey-hey-hey, hey, hey-hey-hey
  This her first time comin' to my house
  Hey-hey-hey, hey-hey-hey, hey, hey-hey-hey
  Better go hard, girl, this your try-outs
