Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You know it's a wrap, yeah, you know it's a wrap
Cancelled, no don't run come back, yeah
You know it's a wrap, yeah, you know it's a wrap
Quit playin', you already know that
Oh, yeah-yeah, oh, yeah-yeah
Oh, yeah-yeah-yeah, oh, yeah-yeah

Got nothin' to say to you anyway, mmh

I don't need closure, it's really okay, mmh
I'm way too fly to be feelin' a way, mmh
Case closed, you're not a baby, my bank grow, oh yeah
You know it's a wrap, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Couldn't care less, no, it ain't for me
You really a clown, if you tell me come around
This second's really in your dreams

You know it's a wrap, yeah, you know it's a wrap
Cancelled, no don't run come back, yeah
You know it's a wrap, yeah, you know it's a wrap
Quit playin', you already know that
Oh, yeah-yeah, oh, yeah-yeah
Oh, yeah-yeah-yeah, oh, yeah-yeah

Now you callin' me, now you proud of me
Why you botherin' me?
You no longer with me?
My economy, it don't bother me
We love the way we fuckin' up our moods
Reciprocatin' energy ain't new
We trapped and contradictin' points of view
And I'm so tired, baby girl, I swear, I'm through

You know it's a wrap, yeah, you know it's a wrap
Cancelled, no don't run come back, yeah
You know it's a wrap, yeah, you know it's a wrap
Quit playin', you already know that

Oh, yeah-yeah, oh, yeah-yeah
Oh, yeah-yeah-yeah, oh, yeah-yeah

Overall Meaning

In "It's a Wrap," Tinashe Quiet Child Kudzai sings about a relationship that has come to an end. The hook "you know it's a wrap" is a declaration that the relationship is over, and there's no going back. The song encapsulates the classic feeling of ending a relationship with someone who is not good enough for you, someone who has not treated you well, and someone who still tries to come back even after everything is said and done.

The lyrics also highlight the singer's strong sense of independence and self-worth. She states that she doesn't need closure and that it's okay, as she is too fly to be bothered by a failed relationship. The chorus with the repetitive "oh yeah yeah" emphasizes the singer's confidence in her decision to end it and move on.

The second verse sheds light on the turmoil the now-gone relationship might have caused. The singer seems to be tired of the toxic energy they exchanged, leading to the relationship's end. She is tired of the contradicting points of view and the energy they've been sharing. Therefore, she's ready to move on from the relationship and live her life, which is evident from the song's chorus.
