vesquito avoid / to dodge

Vesqui is a slang term, a verlan (backwards slang) version of the verb "esquiver," which means "to avoid" or "to dodge."

In the song, Shay uses it in the line "Du mal à vesqui les rancœurs," meaning she has trouble avoiding or escaping grudges. This word is interesting because it's a common example of French street slang, offering a glimpse into informal, contemporary French language often heard in music and everyday conversation.

In "Baby Daddy," Shay gives us a look into her world of contrasts, where some things are incredibly difficult while others are surprisingly easy. The song's title might be a bit of a puzzle, but the lyrics are a powerful list of her personal struggles. She finds it hard to trust people, especially men, and has trouble opening her heart. She also struggles with making decisions, a theme that repeats throughout the song.

Despite these challenges, Shay shows a powerful and decisive side. While she has trouble making decisions, she has no problem cutting people off once she's made up her mind. She also finds it easy to make a lot of money, so much that her banker can't keep up! This song is a bold statement about navigating life's difficulties while still being in control and succeeding on your own terms.
