It Girl
Bladee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Far away on the other side, okay, okay
In this world, you gotta work to be an it girl
When youโฒre done, let it go, you can do it
Eight hours in the dark, I'm in the Rainworld
When the silence is so loud, itโฒs our music
Still have time for whatever, I make it wish well
Stillwater in the world, keep it moving
Bladee coming out the shell with a new skin
On my way down, the wrong way
All the lights on me and I can't see
It's lit all the way, okay, okay
Far away, on the other side, okay, okay
In this world, you gotta work to be an it girl
When youโฒre done, let it go, we can do it
Eight hours in the dark, Iโฒm in the Rainworld
When the silence is so loud, it's our music
Still have time for whatever, I make it wish well
We can talk about a plan, we can do it
Stillwater in the world, keep it moving
Bladee coming out the shell with a new skin
The lyrics to Bladee's song It Girl can be interpreted as a commentary on the pressure to be successful and popular in today's society. The opening lines suggest that the singer is physically far away from others, perhaps indicating a feeling of isolation or disconnection. The repetition of "okay" emphasizes a sense of resignation or acceptance of this state of being.
The chorus then kicks in, with a message that to become an "it girl" or someone who is popular and successful, one must work hard and then let go once success is achieved. The reference to the "Rainworld" and the silence being "our music" suggests a sense of finding beauty and purpose in the hardships of life. The line "Bladee coming out the shell with a new skin" can be interpreted as the artist himself proclaiming a transformation or new beginning.
The second verse continues the themes of hard work and perseverance, with the singer acknowledging that they are going the wrong way but still moving forward. The phrase "all the lights on me and I can't see" could be interpreted as the pressure of fame or success blinding the singer from their own path. Overall, the song presents a message of pushing through adversity to reach success, while also acknowledging the challenges and sacrifices that come with it.

It's lit all the way, okay, okay
Everything is going well, it's a lit situation

That pitch-raise in the first melody makes me hit repeat every time. Whitearmor never misses.
@rip8867
I hope bladee never dies
@randomname766
if bladee died it would hurt me too much. He can't die, he means a lot more to more people than a regular artist to their fans. And not in an obsessive way for some people... just comes through with a certain feeling that no one else can give you... hope
