Shut up
Goof Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My speech ain't free
Everyone is telling me to shut up

Well if you don't like me then cover your ears
Cause I'll say it again
And I'll do it again
And I'll say it again
These words ain't free
But everyone's telling me to fuck off

Well if you don't like me then cover your ears

Cause I'll say it again




And I'll do it again
And I'll say it again

Overall Meaning

In Goof's song "Shut Up," the lyrics convey a strong sense of defiance and determination in the face of criticism and opposition. The opening line, "My speech ain't free," suggests that the artist feels constrained in expressing themselves freely, possibly due to societal pressures or censorship. Despite this, the artist declares that they will not be silenced and will continue to speak their mind, regardless of the consequences.


The repeated phrase "everyone is telling me to shut up" reflects the artist's perception of being constantly criticized or discouraged from expressing their thoughts and opinions. However, rather than succumbing to the pressure, they assert their right to be heard by challenging those who oppose them. The lines "if you don't like me then cover your ears" suggest that the artist believes it is up to the listener to choose whether or not to engage with their words, implying that those who dislike their message can simply choose not to listen.


The repetition of "I'll say it again" emphasizes the artist's determination to persevere and reiterate their message despite resistance, reinforcing their refusal to be silenced. The inclusion of profanity in the line "everyone's telling me to fuck off" intensifies the rebellious and unapologetic attitude portrayed in the song, further defying societal expectations of conformity.


Overall, "Shut Up" showcases an artist who refuses to be silenced, recognizing that their words have value and deserve to be heard. It speaks to the importance of freedom of expression and the power of standing up for one's beliefs, even in the face of opposition.

Jeez. At least give me some time to relax. It's obvious you're all looking for a power point presentation or something.

Anyone else just come off a 12 hour shift? Just saying.

Also seriously you should pray.
Although I can probably help guide you, you really shouldn't need me to do it. Its in the air and the energy. If you can feel it, learn to understand it. If you can't, keep doing you and maybe you just have to find your perspective or something.

Also I did the best that I could. Yes I value life, no we do not necessarily have the same rules...that's just my gift or burden to bear. You don't share mine, nor I yours, so please try to be understanding.

I believe that tragedy can help bring us together, and that God shakes stuff up to put a foot in our asses, and to make us get right. And yes as a human being I do very much sympathize with our condition. However, there is a higher perspective when you're in line with the most high that allows you to see the grace and beauty of the "system" that you may not understand if you're just a normie.

No shade.

So look, I'm gonna do the best that I can to grow and do something big and positive for the world and I would just ask that everyone else continue to do the same.
But with maybe a little more haste. And with more God in the equation. We need to align ourselves with a more pure spirit in our daily lives. I think we've become too cynical and heady. Seems like violence and hatred are sprouting back up. People have lost innocence and over-glorify money and sex and whatever.

In all honesty the gratification from earthly desires or sins or whatever doesn't even compare to me.
But I'm not rich so what do I know. 😂


Oh and last thing: Yeah it does feel wicked cool to have a lot of cool power and stuff, so please stop being alarmed if I flex or do anything a normal person would do in my situation. There is no creepy clown or scary lady...or if there is I don't fuck with it.

Blah blah...

I pray for everyone's happiness and health, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.


Also can I have some money now
somebody pls invest in my science lab

Oh and I think Elon Musk has the right idea. Maybe we should get some AI legislation or whatever
please let me intern
