Slow To Me
Tech N9ne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fast forward, no repeat
(We push start with no key)
Y'all on one, we on three
(We push start with no key)
All talk, gotta show me
(We push start with no key)
It's big dog and Don P
(We push start with no key)
Fast forward, no repeat
(We push start with no key)
Y'all on one, we on three
(We push start with no key)
All talk, gotta show me
(We push start with no key)
It's big dog and Don P (We push start with no key)

I push start with no key
Gritty nigga from the show me
Reverse the letters of OG, think about it (I go big)
Slippery tongue, gotta spit that game
Sickening numb when I dump these flames
Wait of a ton, hit like a gun (bang, bang, bang)
What y'all doing I already done it
Get down through it, nigga, let's run it
Simple and plain, I'm trained for this
I come from the gutters where anguish lives
Look in my eyes, I'm dangerous
They mock me and copy, they (Yankovic)
Yeah, Johnny's, I walk a life
Trappin' and rappin', respect the stripes
Hustle and struggle, get game from strife
Money and muscle, pain from plight
Hard scars, made me a blight
Dark hearts, searching for lice
Sick of the same, I'm ready for change
Something within me keeps wanting the game
Avoiding the voices deep in my brain
Gorilla within me could never be tamed!

Fast forward, no repeat
(We push start with no key)
Y'all on one, we on three
(We push start with no key)
All talk, gotta show me
(We push start with no key)
It's big dog and Don P (We push start with no key)

Don P's where the dough be
(We push start with no key)
I drink liquor, I blow tree
(We push start with no key)
All the niggas and the hoes see
(We push start with no key)
So tell the crooked ass police
(We push start with no key)

Repping KC I eat Niecie's
Go chicken Go and at Lutfi's
That's family nigga, don't ever scam me nigga
You getting gone if you talk too loosely
Word to Ivy, aunt Susie, you can ask my big brother Puchie
We good ghetto to ghetto we get to murdering medals
Back in the day motherfucker we Gucci!
Dumb bitch, I'm on young shit, many bitches on this one dick
So many more wanna come get
But I can't have a whole lot of sprung chicks
Bum nigga to a plum gritter
You don't gotta have a million to run with her
She got a gun witcher, and a tongue spitter
You gotta get 'em believing there ain't nothing bigger
Tell a real G to get a meal free
Cause the drive and the level that is skilled, B
You wanna kill me, then we will be getting filthy
Bigger than norm with Big Scoob, I'm with Big Nick
I'm with Big Shug, I'm with Trick Trick
I'm with O.G. Mugs in this quick list
You don't wanna get your motherfucking wig split
I'm with Big Chuck from film, oh, me and my niggas, we will go
When approaching us, take your hands out your pocket real slow
Kill foe! 56 where my rouges be
Ask around, all the real niggas know me
Nigga, free O.G. be O.P, we push start with no key!

Fast forward, no repeat
(We push start with no key)
Y'all on one, we on three
(We push start with no key)
All talk, gotta show me
(We push start with no key)
It's big dog and Don P (We push start with no key)

Fast forward, no repeat
(We push start with no key)
Y'all on one, we on three
(We push start with no key)
All talk, gotta show me




(We push start with no key)
It's big dog and Don P (We push start with no key)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Tech N9ne Collabos' song Push Start describe the rappers' approach to life - they are pushing forward without looking back, ignoring the haters and critics who talk big but can't back it up. The repeated phrase "we push start with no key" is a metaphor for their self-reliance and determination to succeed, without waiting for anyone else's permission or help. Tech N9ne himself describes his creativity and drive as coming from his "gorilla within," which can never be tamed or controlled by anyone else.


The rhymes in the song are raw and gritty, reflecting the harsh realities of growing up in the streets and fighting to make a name for oneself in the competitive music industry. Don P adds his own perspective, referencing his hometown of Kansas City and the local "ghetto" eateries that he frequents. There are also shoutouts to other rappers and collaborators who share the same mindset and work ethic as Tech N9ne and Don P.


Overall, Push Start is a high-energy anthem for anyone who is trying to make it in their chosen field, against all odds and obstacles. It encourages listeners to keep pushing forward and never give up on their dreams, no matter how difficult the path may seem.

Man, Tech's mind must never think of resting. He just released an album in May, now he's doing another in November. I respect his work ethic.

KingJangoo - Gamer/Designer

Right , I've never seen a goddam artist who comes out with 2-3 fire albums a year , crazy .

Brian Harris

Pretty sure Tech doesn't even know what resting is.

DaTechn9cian

+Brian Harris ikr

cody sour

Completely agree, and it's not like the shit he puts out is garbage either, his shits dope! It'll take any other rappers 2 to three years to drop an album on Techs caliber, it's just natural for Tech!

John Ringo lll
