PEN GUTT Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Spiser no dop
Deler no snop
Som det var coop
Oh
Bitchen er lø
Vi stacker brød
Stell deg i kø
Var uten clique
Så sa det klikk
Nå er vi lit
Oh
Nå er vi lit
Oh
Oh
Lil Truls
Vi sa "klikk"
Se hva vi har blitt
Vi har blitt lit
Har hatt cliquen min fra starten
Du vet vi går alt for langt tilbake
Du vet vi ikke trenger noen andre
Vi skal komme opp sammen
Vi kan ikke lenger snakke sammen
Hvis du ikke støtter meg og laget
Vi lar dem bare prate uten handling
Mens gutta mine er ute å slakter drager
Jeg var så nede
Men nå skal vi opp
De skaper problemer
Jeg trenger min glock
Oh
Spiser no dop
Deler no snop
Som det var coop
Oh
Bitchen er lø
Vi stacker brød
Stell deg i kø
Oh
Var uten clique
Så sa det klikk
Nå er vi lit
Oh
Nå er vi lit
Oh
Oh
In "Lit," PEN GUTT explores themes of camaraderie, personal growth, and rising above obstacles. The lyrics, however, are written in conversational Norwegian slang, making the interpretation challenging. I'll do my best to break it down.
The song begins with the line "GlockSivertFlex." The word "Glock" may refer to a Glock handgun, while "Sivert" and "Flex" could possibly be names or slang terms. These terms may suggest a tough and confident demeanor.
The next few lines, "Spiser no dop, deler no snop, som det var coop," could be interpreted as nonchalant references to drug use and sharing. "Dop" typically means drugs, "snop" means sweets, and "coop" refers to the Coop supermarket chain.
The chorus consists of a repetition of "Oh," which sets the ambivalent and carefree tone of the song. It is followed by the line "Bitchen er lø," which could mean that everything is working out smoothly or positively.
The phrase "Vi stacker brød, stell deg i kø" could be understood as a metaphor for being successful and in demand. "Stacker brød" literally translates to "stacking bread," suggesting the accumulation of wealth or success. "Stell deg i kø" means to get in line, implying that others should wait their turn.
The verse begins with the introduction of a character called "Lil Truls." Together, they state that they have become successful ("Vi har blitt lit") and imply that this success has been achieved by staying true to their original group ("Har hatt cliquen min fra starten"). They emphasize their determination to progress together, refusing to rely on others and their support.
The lines "Vi lar dem bare prate uten handling, mens gutta mine er ute å slakter drager" express an indifference towards people who may talk but fail to act. They boast about their crew's productivity or success by metaphorically slaying dragons.
The singer reflects on their past struggles ("Jeg var så nede"), suggesting a previous state of being down or low. However, they now have a newfound determination to rise above their problems ("Men nå skal vi opp"). The phrase "Jeg trenger min glock" interestingly implies a need for protection or strength in navigating challenges.
In the final chorus, the lyrics are repeated, emphasizing the idea of being "lit" or successful. Overall, "Lit" appears to boast about personal growth, resilience, and loyalty within a tight-knit group. The lyrical content encompasses themes of confidence, overcoming obstacles, and a disregard for those who talk without taking action.
