Insane
Ofln - Summer Walker Lyrics

Summer Walker's song "Insane" explores the concept of time and perception. In the first verse, she questions why someone is in such a rush, questioning if they are trying to "meet their maker" or running out of time. She suggests that time is not real and that they should calm down because it's all an illusion. The person is getting caught up in the idea of fusion or trying to understand something beyond their comprehension. Summer advises them to sit down and believe, but warns that she wouldn't be the same old thing. The chorus repeats the idea of feeling insane and asking for God's blessings and help.

The second verse delves deeper into the theme of perception. Summer questions why the person wants to play so bad, implying that they are seeking some form of escape or distraction. She acknowledges that they know it's real, but they need to go fast or alter their state to truly feel it. The mention of DMT (a psychedelic drug) suggests that the person may be seeking to expand their consciousness. However, Summer claims that she has already seen the same things before she goes to sleep, implying that she doesn't need external substances to experience a heightened reality.

Overall, "Insane" seems to be a contemplation of the illusions of time and the search for something beyond our everyday perception. It urges listeners to take a step back, embrace belief, and question the need for external stimuli to experience a sense of truth or intensity.
