Overall Meaning

In Gunna's song "Speed It Up," he uses the lines "hold on, hold on, speed it up, hold on" as a kind of refrain that leads into the chorus. It's like he's telling the listeners to hold on for a second as he transitions into a faster-paced part of the song. He then encourages them to "speed it up" as the chorus kicks in with its repetitive "speed it up, eat it up" verses. This seems to be referring to his success and the pace of his life, as he talks about "Scotty Hotty" and "Charlie Wally," who may be references to his friends or fellow artists. He also mentions extravagant purchases like a Mulsanne car and private plane, as well as his diamond chain and plain watches.


Throughout the song, Gunna is very confident and seems to be flaunting his luxurious lifestyle. He uses lines like "the hate, can't stop it" to indicate that he is not going to let any negative opinions affect him. He also mentions taking LSD ("I'm high, geeking") and lying to the police ("I lied at the precinct") which might imply that he is living life on the edge and doesn't care about the consequences. Overall, the song is about success, the fast pace of life, and enjoying the fruits of one's labor.

I love how this song literally is a speeding up of language and expression and our universal consciousness. People say storytelling left rap, while they have a point, we know the truth is these chains of two/threee word phrases are the power of the mind at its most potent, if one is truly worthy to wield it.

Think of it like the difference between an old sorceror chanting a 20 minute incantation and a yung wizkod running up and hidding you with that A(vada) K(evadra)


Yeah


SPEED IT UP


"mom (feat. post malone)" out now xoxo
