Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴She just moved to L.A.
Go to UCLA
And she drive a Maserati
Damn she got a body
She be tryna party
She be tryna party
She just moved to L.A.
Go to UCLA And she drive a Maserati
Damn she got a body
She be tryna party
She be tryna party

Surf board shawty, she just caught the wave
Twenty-four been getting paid
Diamonds in her watch, no shades
All these lights on the train and okay
Pop one pill
Pop two pills
Roll, roll, roll, now she going downhill
And she was born in Texas
So you know she flexin'
Shawty got style I can tell how she dressin'

She just moved to L.A.

She ain't used to the weather
She been rockin' old clothes
Fucked up last night, today she a no show
She don't like to go to class
Rather here to party
Study that [?]
Papa got money
Red Maserati
She just met new friends
They just want to stay up
Till the sun come up
They just wanna party
Tell 'em something came up
She just wanna party
She don't wanna change up

She just moved to L.A.
Go to UCLA
And she drive a Maserati
Damn she got a body
She be tryna party
She be tryna party
She just moved to L.A.
Go to UCLA
'Cause she drive a Maserati
Damn she got a body
She be tryna party
She be tryna party

She just moved to L.A.
She be tryna party
She be tryna party
She just moved to L.A.

She be tryna party
She be tryna party


Overall Meaning

The song "UCLA" by RL Grime and 24hrs tells the story of a girl who has recently moved to Los Angeles and is now attending UCLA. She is clearly well-off, driving a Maserati and has a great body. She is constantly seeking to party and have fun, rather than attend her classes and study.


The second verse describes how she is fitting into the LA lifestyle, going out and partying with her new friends rather than caring about school. She also seems to be trying to fit in with the LA fashion scene, as the lyrics mention her stylish dress sense. The chorus indicates that all she wants to do is party and have a good time, which seems to be a recurring theme throughout the song.


Overall, "UCLA" highlights the typical Hollywood lifestyle of money, parties, and a refusal to conform to society's expectations. The lyrics focus on the girl's desire to have fun and enjoy life in LA, rather than falling into the mundanity of studying and getting good grades.
