Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't tell me you could save that shit
All she want is payback for the way I always play that shit
You ain't gettin' nothin' that I'm sayin'
Don't tell me you is
Nothin' like them other motherfuckers
I can make you rich (I can make you rich)
I can make you this, baby, I can make you that
Growin' sick of this and I don't wanna make you sad
Do I make you scared? Baby, won't you take me back?
Nothin' like them other motherfuckers
I can make you rich (I can make you rich)
Nothin' like them other motherfuckers
I can make you rich (I can make you rich)
Fuck my life, can't save that girl
Don't tell me you could save that shit
All she want is payback for the way I always play that shit
You ain't gettin' nothin' that I'm sayin'
Don't tell me you is
Nothin' like them other motherfuckers
I can make you rich (I can make you rich)
I can make you this, baby, I can make you that
I can take you there, but baby, you won't make it back
Growin' sick of this and I don't wanna make you sad
Do I make you scared? Baby, won't you take me back?
Down another lonely road, I go
Just another lonely road, oh
I just wanna know, I just gotta know
Do you wanna glow? Baby, we could glow
Fuck my life, can't save that girl
Don't tell me you could save that shit
All she want is payback for the way I always play that shit
You ain't gettin' nothin' that I'm sayin'
Don't tell me you is
Nothin' like them other motherfuckers
I can make you rich (I can make you rich)
I can make you this, baby, I can make you that
I can take you there, but baby, you won't make it back
Growin' sick of this and I don't wanna make you sad
Do I make you scared? Baby, won't you take me back?
Do I make you scared? Baby, won't you take me back?
Nothin' like them other motherfuckers
I can make you rich (I can make you rich)
In "Save That Shit," Lil Peep describes a toxic relationship that he can't seem to leave behind. He starts by acknowledging that he can't save the girl he's with and doesn't want anyone to tell him that he can. She's only interested in getting payback for his past mistakes and doesn't seem to care about anything he says. However, Lil Peep believes that he's different from the other guys and can make her rich, offering her everything from money to travel experiences. But despite that, he's growing tired of the relationship and doesn't want to make her sad anymore. He asks if he makes her scared and begs her to take him back because he can't seem to leave her alone.
The chorus of the song repeats twice, emphasizing Lil Peep's frustration and hopeless feeling of being trapped in the relationship. He wants to escape the cycle of hurting each other and move on to something better. The bridge offers a glimmer of hope as Lil Peep expresses his desire for something more meaningful, asking if they could "glow" together. But ultimately, he can't seem to let go, asking once again if she will take him back.
Overall, "Save That Shit" is a raw and honest portrayal of a love-hate relationship that's gone too far. Lil Peep lyrically captures the emotional turmoil and dilemmas of getting out of a seemingly toxic situation, while also expressing his willingness to make things work.
