Young Thug has never shied away from showing his softer side, and Sad Slime, track eight on his expansive new album UY SCUTI (out today, September 26, 2025, via Young Stoner Life and 300 Entertainment), takes that vulnerability to new heights. Fresh from his 2024 release after the RICO ordeal, Thug pours real emotion into this project, his first full-length since Business Is Business in 2023. Named for the universe’s biggest star, UY SCUTI spans 18 tracks of trap introspection and cosmic boasts, with guests like Future on “Money On Money,” Travis Scott on “Pipe Down,” and Cardi B on “On The News.” Beats from Metro Boomin and others give it that expansive feel, but it’s Thug’s voice—twisting from whispers to wails—that holds it together.
On Sad Slime, produced by SLOWBURNZ, Wonderyo, and Dylan Hyde, Thug gets personal. It’s a slow-burner that contrasts the album’s high-energy flexes, clocking in at just over three minutes but hitting like a gut punch. You hear echoes of his jail letters in the raw delivery, those melodic sighs over sparse piano and distant hi-hats building to a cathartic bridge where he admits, “I built empires, but couldn’t save us.” X users are connecting hard, sharing stories of their own breakups in replies, with one viral thread calling it “Thug’s most honest since Barter 6.” It fits right into UY SCUTI’s duality—triumph tracks like “Fucking Told U” on one end, these reflective gems on the other, showing growth without losing edge. Dive into the Sad Slime lyrics below and ride Thug’s lyrical-masterpiece wave. Don’t miss other UY SCUTI tracks like “Miss My Dogs” for more of his cosmic comeback chaos.

Lyrics of Sad Slime by Young Thug
[Verse]
I Been Cryin’ All Day
I Seen My Brother Turn To A Rat In My Face
I Been Cryin’ All Day (On It)
I Seen My Bitch Go To Her Ex
I Been Cryin’ All Day
I Seen My Momma Gettin’ Sick About A [?] Again
I Been Cryin’ All Day
Protect You With My Life (Yeah), Every Single Time
Tryna Pick A Nigga Up, Tryna Put A Nigga Down
I Been Goin’ Through It Bad, But I Try Not To Frown
I See A Gangster Turn Rat, They Turned Him To A Pack
Interrogation Room Junky, Nigga Gon’ Crack
Yeah, I Was Wrong But, Don’t Do Me Bad, Girl
I Was Just Fuckin’ On That Bitch And I Text Her
She Just A Pill-head, Must’ve Relaxed Her
I Know You Feel That, I’m Sorry Again
A Couple Niggas Around Me Don’t Respect The Shit That I Got Goin’
Tryna Keep Everything Secrecy But Nigga Wanna Record It
Stop Callin’ Me, “Baby,” Bitch, I’m Takin’ Off, I’m Soarin’
I’m Tryna Change Yo’ Life Around But You Was Steady Hoein’, Oh
I’m Cryin’ (Woah), I Been Cryin’ All Day
I Seen My Brother Turn Rat Right In My Face
I Been Cryin’ All Day
I Think My Bitch Went To Her Ex On Me
She Got Me Cryin’ All Day, Out Loud
I Think My Momma Gettin’ Sick On Me,
One Of The Reasons I’ll Never Turn Her Down
And That’s Why I Been Grindin’, Grindin’, I Don’t Plan On Stoppin’
All In My [?], I’m On It
On It, Baby, Are You Only?
Do You Only Love Me Back?
Say It With Your Fuckin’ Tongue, It [?]
I’m Tired Of Cryin’
Protect You With My Life Every Single Time, Die ’bout You
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
[Outro]
Ooh, Ooh, Ooh, Ooh
Told Me Not To Stress ’bout It
Usually I Can Dance ’round It
This Time, It’s Gone To My Head
I Don’t Know Why, It’s Too Different This Time
I Really Don’t Know Why,
This Is Different Times, Different Place And Time
And That’s Why I Been Fallin’
