[Music] Quavo – Backwards ft T.I. [+ Lyrics]

Quavo opens his 2026 project QRÖMELIFE with the compelling track Backwards. Positioned as the first of fourteen songs, it sets the tone for the album’s unfolding narrative and creative journey.

Adding dynamic contrast, T.I. joins the track, lending his distinctive voice and presence. Their collaboration marks a notable moment early in the record, blending two American artists’ styles within the project-first framework.

As the introductory song, Backwards introduces listeners to the thematic and sonic direction that Quavo has carefully crafted for QRÖMELIFE. The project's structure, with fourteen tracks, invites deeper exploration beyond this opening statement.

Quavo Backwards Lyrics:
These dollars ain't gon' throw themself
Huncho, ATLA, ATL, Atlanta (welcome to Atlanta)
You can get the most up out the dollar
Fine shit, thick, lemon pepper (yeah)
White, brown, flavors, nigga, yee

ATLA, ATL, Atlanta
Middle of the trap, you see a Phantom (that where we from)
All type of poles, more than Magic
All type of hos throwin' it backwards (come on)

Throw it backwards, throw it backwards
Throw it (Ion want no ones 'til she throw it backwards)
Quavo pull up first, right? (Throw it backwards, throw it backwards, yeah)
Throw it, throw it (told her she ain't done 'til she throw it backwards)

Then the king pull up, backwards, throw it backwards (throw it backwards, throw it backwards, yeah)
Throw it (turnin' in the lot, I had to pull in backwards)
You think I ain't goin'? I'm goin' (throw it backwards, throw it backwards)
We in Atlanta, yeah, y'all know what this is (no leavin' with them ones, gotta bring 'em backwards)

Freaky dancer, still beggin' me to wife her (freak)
First time I met lil' mama, ooh, she let me pipe her (uh)
Don't leave your girl 'round me, I'ma snipe her (smash)
Pull that money out, shit, this the trap capital (whoo, whoo, whoo)

Ain't no backin' out, shi' (nah), countin' and spend it backwards (spend it)
Hands on the stick, the fetti made her do a backflip (flip it)
Turned her to a stripper, told her, "Clap it to my ad-libs"
Throw it (baow), throw it (baow), throw it (baow), throw it

Welcome to Atlanta, you can fuck a dancer
She gon' give you one shot to fuck them bands up
Trap niggas and scammers, pull up Phantom
Ooh, she keep rewindin', throwin' it backwards

Backwards, throw it (let me see you show it), backwards, throw it (let me see you do it)
Backwards, throw it (I don't want no ones 'til she throw it backwards, ay)
Throw it backwards (let me see you show it), throw it backwards (let me see you do it)
Told her she ain't done 'til she throw it backwards (y'all know what this is, ay)

Throw it backwards (let me see you show it), throw it backwards (let me see you do it)
Turnin' in the lot, I had to pull in backwards (ay)
Throw it backwards (let me see you show it), throw it backwards (let me see you do it)
No leavin' with them ones, gotta bring 'em back

Ay, I know how to make her throw it back (throw it back, whoo)
Trap nigga, havin' thousand dollar stacks (trap, thousand dollar stack)
She know we thumbin' through million, chillin', ain't nothin' to do
Fur cat, lil' mama in traffic, then run up on her in action (trap, and whoo, go)

Revert wit' it, ass hangin' out the skirt wit' it (out the skirt)
She throw that shit like she the last on the Earth wit' it (whoo, whoo)
With purse stichin', dollars in her vision (whoo, whoo)
Play this for her, listen, turn her to a twerktition (talk to 'em)

It'll payoff a panda (shit), they say they new to Atlanta (she cappin')
Them other bitches is thicker, but they say lil' booty matter
We popped a half of one and had some fun to help you get they asses done (pop it)
'Til the sun came, like they did, couldn't be mad enough (go)

Welcome to Atlanta, you can fuck a dancer
She gon' give you one shot to fuck them bands up
Trap niggas and scammers, pull up Phantom
Ooh, she keep rewindin', throwin' it backwards

Backwards, throw it backwards, throw it (let me see you do it)
Backwards, throw it (I don't want no ones 'til she throw it backwards, ay)
Throw it backwards (let me see you show it), throw it backwards (let me see you do it)
Told her she ain't done 'til she throw it backwards (y'all know what this is)

Throw it backwards (let me see you show it), throw it backwards (let me see you do it)
Turnin' in the lot, I had to pull in backwards (ay)
Throw it backwards (let me see you show it), throw it backwards (let me see you do it)
No leavin' with them ones, gotta bring 'em backwards

Ay, look, this how that ass should look
