Overall Meaning

The Mura Masa song Move Me is an upbeat track with an electronic sound that features R&B lyrics with a bit of a rap edge. The song is about self-empowerment, with the lyrics encouraging the listener to stick with the singer and discover their own power to move forward in their lives. The song begins with the sound of footsteps and the lyrics "Step, step to the left, step, step. Step, step, s-step, s-step," which follows almost every line of the song. The repetition of the phrase suggests a steady and confident forward motion that is required to move ahead in life.


The verses of the song talk about the personal journeys of the singer and the things that they have been through to become the person they are today. The lyrics mention moves from the southeast, hotboxing blocks, walking past cops, and family, which all indicate experiences that have shaped the person that the singer has become. The chorus is a repeat of the phrase "Now you're tryin' to move me, remember back then you never knew me, ay and to the East Side, to the East Side, yeah, can't let you into my mind, yeah, can't let you into my mind, yeah." These lines seem to suggest that the singer has come a long way from their past and is not willing to let others affect them.


The song overall is upbeat and empowering. It encourages the listener to take control of their own journey and not let the opinions or past experiences of others hold them back.
