Insane
Summer Walker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What, you tryin' to meet your maker, darlin'?
Or are you runnin' out of time? Huh?
Look time ain't even real, you really need to chill
It's all an illusion
You gettin' mixed up in the fusion
Whatever it is you tryna see
You can sit down and just believe
How?
But I can tell you straight, it ain't no game, baby, oh
God bless me (God bless me)
God help me (God help me)
Oh, I think I'm insane, ah
God bless me (God bless me)
God help me (God help me)
Ooh, I think I'm insane, ah, oh, oh-oh
Why you wanna play so bad?
Why you wanna play so bad?
Why you wanna play so bad?
Why you wanna play so bad?
'Cause you know it's real (you know)
'Cause you know it's- (you know)
You gotta get two times too fast to feel (to feel)
'Cause you claim you see things (you claim, you claim)
When you on DMT
But I've seen the same things before I go to sleep (you, you)
God bless me (God bless me)
God help me (God help me)
Oh, I think I'm insane, ah
God bless me (God bless me)
God help me (God help me)
Ooh, I think I'm insane, ah, oh, oh-oh
Why you wanna play so bad?
Why you wanna play so bad?
Why you wanna play so bad?
Why you wanna play so bad?
In Summer Walker's song "Insane," the artist seems to be confronting someone who is feeling rushed and anxious. The lyrics suggest that the person may be feeling like they're running out of time, but Summer encourages them to slow down and relax, telling them that time is just an illusion. She sings, "Look time ain't even real, you really need to chill, it's all an illusion, you gettin' mixed up in the fusion." She urges the person to take a break from trying to see and understand everything, and just trust in what they believe.
The chorus of the song repeats several times, with Summer asking God to bless and help her, while also acknowledging that she feels insane. The repetition of this chorus suggests that Summer may be grappling with some inner turmoil or personal struggles, and is seeking guidance and strength from a higher power. The use of the word "insane" in the chorus could be interpreted as a metaphor for feelings of instability, insecurity, or confusion.
In the second verse, Summer seems to be confronting someone who is obsessed with trying to understand reality by experimenting with drugs like DMT. She acknowledges that this person may have seen some extraordinary things on their journey, but reminds them that she has had similar experiences in her dreams. The lyrics seem to suggest that Summer believes that there are other ways to gain insight and understanding, without relying on external substances.
Overall, the song "Insane" is a meditation on the human condition, and the ways in which we try to understand ourselves and the world around us. Summer's lyrics suggest that there are many paths to enlightenment, and that sometimes the most important thing is to slow down and trust in our own beliefs and experiences.
