Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Yeah, Yeah'
I'm feelin' good best believe gettin' fitted
Livin my life like a dream I'm too vivid
Don't give a fuck bout the fame or the bitches
I'm really gon get it I'm going unlisted
Hit the gas and it jump (skirt skrrt)Know that it's up
The heat is abrupt
Lean in the cup, woah
Skirt too hard lost the roof on the drop-top
Talk too much turn his shirt to a crop top
Jake Laurent when and turned to a rockstar
Rock purple kicks it's a lick look like Wockhardt
Peel off the lot in a stock car
If he talk hard then he not hard
Run to the guap like I run from a cop car
I'm in the lamb had to speed it up
Yea I feel like Mike Jack when I moonwalk and beat it up
Your opposition can't walk up be seen with us
Can't let myself down had to work hard and keep it up
I'm in the lamb had to speed it up
Yea I feel like Mike Jack when I moonwalk and beat it up
Your opposition can't walk up be seen with us
Can't let myself down had to work hard and keep it up
I'm feelin good best believe gettin fitted
Livin my life like a dream I'm too vivid
Don't give a fuck bout the fame or the bitches
I'm really gon get it I'm going unlisted
Hit the gas and it jump (skrt skrrt)

Lean in the cup, woah
Beat it up, beat it up, beat it up
Fuck on that bitch and I beat it up
Throw it in gear engine speedin up
All I know is my numbers beatin' ya

Shit ain't abrupt
I remember the fake bitches in High School
Thought I was the nice dude, don't wanna be by you
I ain't fuckin with that
Yeah I ain't fuckin with that
That shit is wack yeah, that shit is wack'
In Lil Spenny's song "Keep it Up," the artist expresses a sense of confidence and self-assuredness in his current life, describing it as a fulfilled dream that's “too vivid.” This statement reflects his clarity of vision and ambition. By saying he doesn't care about fame or superficial relationships, he highlights his focus on genuine goals rather than societal validations. Being “unlisted” suggests he seeks authenticity and perhaps a level of anonymity in a world that often glorifies celebrity status. The imagery of "hit the gas" and "jump" symbolizes an eagerness to accelerate toward his dreams, hinting that he is ready to embrace challenges head-on.
The references to luxury cars, such as the “drop-top” and “Lamb,” serve as metaphors for success and the high-speed chase of life. The artist conveys a thrill-seeking lifestyle, one that welcomes risk and excitement. The phrase "lose the roof on the drop-top" signifies living without constraints, which parallels his rejection of expectations imposed by others. The use of playful language, like “skirt skrrt,” denotes a carefree attitude toward obstacles, underlining his determination not to be deterred by adversaries who may be envious or who doubt his capabilities. Additionally, the line about “Jake Laurent” transitioning to a "rockstar" reflects the blending of various influences and inspirations from the music industry.
There is a juxtaposition of indulgence and diligence in his lyrics, especially as he mentions being “double cupped,” a common reference associated with lean, a beverage mixed with codeine. This suggests a lifestyle that embraces both celebration and the resultant consequences that come with it. The repeated phrase “beat it up” can refer to engaging in romantic encounters but can also symbolize taking ownership of his challenges, driving forward despite any distractions. The lines emphasize the importance of perseverance and hard work, stating that his success is directly tied to his commitment to keep striving despite the hurdles.
In reflecting on his past experiences, particularly during high school, the artist acknowledges the superficiality of certain social interactions, emphasizing that he has outgrown associating with "fake bitches." This indicates a dismissal of those who do not contribute positively to his journey. The explicit rejection of “that shit is wack” points to his growth and a determination to surround himself with authenticity and worthiness in both personal and professional relationships. Overall, the lyrics emphasize resilience, a rejection of negativity, and a celebration of self-empowerment, ultimately advocating for continuous effort and dedication in the pursuit of one’s dreams.
