Geronimo
Trippie Redd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Because time is running out
You are now aware
You are now awake
Tell me the things that you wanna do
Show me the places you wanna go
I'm more than the voice in your radio
I'll kill for you (oh yeah, here I come)
I'll care for you (oh, baby, Geronimo)
I'll kill for you (here I come)
I'll care for you (baby, Geronimo)
Tell me the things that you wanna do
Show me the places you wanna go
Oh, I'll take you there (take you there)
You have my heart, baby, so play fair
You've been crazy lately, baby, I like it
You're one of a kind, yeah (oh)
You're too beautiful to even be mine, yeah
One of a kind (hey), baby, Geronimo
I'll kill for you (oh yeah, here I come)
I'll carry you (oh, baby, Geronimo)
I'll kill for you (here I come)
I'll carry you (baby, Geronimo)
I'll kill for you (here I come)
I'll carry you (baby, here I come)
I'll kill for you (here I come, here I come)
I'll carry you (here I come for you)
I'm alone on the sky
Basin, nothing gray
I want you out of mind, mind, mind
I'll kill for you (oh yeah, here I come)
I'll carry you (oh, baby, Geronimo)
I'll kill for you (here I come)
I'll carry you (baby Geronimo)
I'll kill for you (here I come)
I'll carry you (oh, baby, Geronimo)
I'll kill for you (here I come)
I'll carry you (baby, Geronimo)
The lyrics of GERONIMO by Trippie Redd featuring Travis Barker and Chino Moreno begin with the singer calling out to the listener to 'latch onto me' as time is running out. This seems to suggest that the singer wants to live life to the fullest and wants the listener to do the same. The next lines- 'You are now aware, you are now awake' also point towards the singer wanting to awaken the listener to their own potential.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the point of wanting to experience things together- 'Tell me the things that you wanna do, Show me the places you wanna go'. The singer promises to be there for the listener always- 'I'll kill for you, I'll care for you'. The phrase 'Take a look at the sky, baby, Geronimo' seems to imply that the singer is encouraging the listener to take a leap of faith and trust them.
The bridge of the song is slightly difficult to interpret but it seems like the singer is asking the listener to forget about the outside world and concentrate on the two of them together. The song ends with the chorus being repeated again and again with the phrase 'here I come' suggesting that the singer is ready to embrace the adventure that is life and wants to do it together with the listener.

Huge fan of Trippie and Deftones. Never in a thousand years would I have thought they’d collab ♥️

Same. Is this Deftones or just Chino? Definitely sounds like a Deftones track, but this collab is amazing!
