Wish
Trippie Redd Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh, baby, what you wishin' for? (Wishin' for?)
Maybe you should wish it more (wish it more)
Maybe the world is yours (world is yours)
Maybe when it rains, it pours (keep on wishin')
I don't know how to wish anymore (keep on wishin')
I don't know how to wish anymore (I don't know how to wish anymore)
Or do I?
Wish you'd get out my face, might go MIA
Might just blow my brain, I'd be Kurt Cobain
I can't feel my face, I can't feel my face
I can't feel my face, I can't feel my face

I wish you would find your chill
'Cause Lord knows this shit get real
And for this price, you know you'd kill
Man, it's big brack, you know the deal
Man, it's big slatt, you know the deal
Draco a big dragon, fire, hell
Can't save me, man, save yourself
'Cause I do not need no help

Keep on wishin'
Keep on wishin'
Keep on wishin'
(Ooh-oh, oh-ah)

Ooh, baby, what you wishin' for? (Wishin' for?)
Maybe you should wish it more (wish it more)
Maybe the world is yours (world is yours)
Maybe when it rains, it pours (keep on wishin')
I don't know how to wish anymore (keep on wishin')
I don't know how to wish anymore (I don't know how to wish anymore)
Or do I?

Wish you'd get out my face, might go MIA
Might just blow my brain, I'd be Kurt Cobain




I can't feel my face, I can't feel my face
I can't feel my face, I can't feel my face

Overall Meaning

In Trippie Redd's song, "Wish," he questions the purpose of wishing and its power. He asks his listeners, "Baby what you wishin' for?," implying that dreams and desires are formless without intention and effort. Trippie further explores this idea by suggesting, "Maybe you should wish it more?" insinuating that lack of follow-through may be why wishes don't come true. However, he also acknowledges that the world may belong to those who wish for it enough, indicating that true dedication can make one's wishes a reality.


The chorus of the song, "Maybe when it rains it pours?" can be understood in two ways. It can imply that when things go wrong, they tend to go wrong in abundance, like a thunderstorm or flood. On the other hand, it can also suggest that when things finally start going right, success can come in droves. Trippie goes back and forth between wanting solitude and wanting success. In the verse, he says, "Wish you'd get out my face, might go MIA," indicating that he wants to disconnect from the world around him. However, he simultaneously raps about his desire to become rich and successful, stating, "And for this price you know you'll kill, and it's big brack, you know the deal."


Overall, "Wish" touches upon the ideas of wanting more, but not knowing how to manifest those desires. Trippie Redd questions the power of wishful thinking and explores the duality of solitude and success.
