Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Playboi Carti's song "On That Time" are heavily focused on being a gangster and engaging in criminal activity. The term "push up" is repeated throughout the song and is likely a reference to doing push-ups as a form of exercise to stay in shape for criminal activity, as well as possibly a reference to pushing drugs. The lyrics also reference riding around town with a Draco, which is a type of gun, and being ready for any potential conflict with rivals. The line "Ain't no reasonin', ain't no fixin' shit" suggests that Carti and his crew don't bother with resolving conflicts peacefully and instead resort to violent means.


The chorus of the song repeats the same lines over and over again, further emphasizing the focus on aggression and the lack of regard for consequences. The lines "Every day my birthday, so I made a wish" and "Every day my birthday, so she suck my dick" suggest a sense of entitlement and a desire for instant gratification, as well as a lack of respect for women. Overall, the song paints a picture of a dangerous and reckless lifestyle, glorifying violence and criminal behavior.
