Awkwafina is braggadocious in “Pockiez,” the first single off of her long-awaited EP In Fina We Trust. She also makes several allusions to her Asian identity—including, off-the-bat, the title itself, which refers to a popular Asian snack.

[Verse 1]
I’m all about the pink tip Pockys
Got a lotta vag, feel cocky
Thotties tryna start up in the inbox
Now they wanna get props
Tell them bitches exit through the gift shop
I know I act rich but I’m broke
Skin turn green 'cause the ring fake gold
I just wanna smoke bowls
Roll up with a GoPro
Queens full of ajummas workin on their golf stroke
I’m yellow as a egg yolk
So I’m gettin' side-eyed by these alt-right white folk
Meanwhile got China makin' iPhones
Time zones, workin' at the quarry chopping limestone
You could catch me in a Lyft with a pretty bitch
Got a baggie but I only need a little bit
One hit and the bitch talkin silly shit
See me on the block with the squad, big city bitch
[Hook]
I’m educatin'
Killed a dude off while menstruatin'
Yeah I don’t need a dick when I penetrate
Never hesitate when I devastate them
Bitch I devastate them
[Verse 2]
I’m a sushi blade, you a dull razor
I’m a lead role, you a day player
I got good genes and I’m agin' well
Is a bitch 13? They can never tell
Ay roll up in a second-hand Nissan
Mothafuckas on the boulevard with a fleece on
In da cut, deli sign, Pink neon
Gutting out a dutch, I don’t even need a reason
Ay imma celebrate
Had a good year need to calibrate
For you slow hoes imma paraphrase
I'm a heavyweight, bitch I devastate them
[Outro]
Bitch I devastate them
Bitch I devastate
Bitch I devastate them

Pockiez was produced by Awkwafina.
In an interview with The Slant about her most recent music video at the time (which was “Pockiez”), she says:
I think the music that I’m making now — what’s great about it is that it’s authentic to me. And it’s something that I feel like the people that bought my first album would enjoy.
