"If I'm Lyin, I'm Flyin" is a song by American rapper Kodak Black. It was released on September 28, 2018, as the lead single from his debut studio album Dying to Live (2018). [1] [2]
The song finds Kodak Black rapping about his life from being on the streets and in jail to becoming a successful rapper ("I can't let these niggas knock me off my pivot / God sat me down and talked to me I listened"), and "ruminates on his fallen homies" as well. [2] [3] [4]
Patrick Montes of Hypebeast wrote that the song "pairs his unique, charismatic flows with syrupy, bass-heavy melodies." [2]
An accompanying music video was released with the single. Directed by Spencer Hord, the video shows Kodak Black enjoying his freedom after his release from jail, flying on a private jet and reuniting with family. [3] [4]
