Are you alright?
I'm alright
I'm quite alright
And my money's right
(8) yeah
Countin' them bands all way to the top 'til they be fallin' over
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Countin' them bands all the way to the top 'til we fallin' over

I don't really care if you cry
On the real, you shoulda never lied
Shoulda saw the way she looked me in my eyes
She said, "Baby, I am not afraid to die"
Push me to the edge
All my friends are dead
Push me to the edge
All my friends are dead
Push me to the edge
All my friends are dead
Push me to the edge

Phantom that's all red
Inside all white
Like something you ride a sled down
I just want that head
My Brittany got mad
I'm barely her man now
Everybody got the same swag now
Watch the way that I tear it down
Stackin' my bands all the way to the top
All the way 'til my bands fallin' over
Every time that you leave your spot
Your girlfriend call me like, "Come on over"
I like the way that she treat me

Gon' leave you, won't leave me, I call it that Casanova
She said I'm insane, yeah
I might blow my brain out (hey)
Xanny help the pain, yeah
Please, Xanny, make it go away
I'm committed, not addicted, but it keep control of me
All the pain, now I can't feel it

I don't really care if you cry
On the real, you shoulda never lied
Saw the way she looked me in my eyes
She said, "I am not afraid to die" (yeah)
All my friends are dead
Push me to the edge (yeah)
All my friends are dead (yeah, ooh)
Push me to the edge
All my friends are dead, yeah
All my friends are dead, yeah

That is not your swag, I swear you fake hard
Now these niggas wanna take my cadence
Rain on, thunderstorm, rain on (oh yeah)
Medicine, lil' nigga, take some (yeah-yeah)
Fast car, NASCAR, race on
In the club they got no ones, that we will beg them
Clothes from overseas
Got the racks and they all C-Notes, you is not a G though
Lookin' at you stackin' up your money, it all green though
I was countin' that and these all twenties, that's a G-roll

She say
"You're the worst, you're the worst"
I cannot die because this my universe

I don't really care if you cry
On the real, you shoulda never lied
Shoulda saw the way she looked me in my eyes
She said, "Baby, I am not afraid to die"
Push me to the edge
All my friends are dead
Push me to the edge
All my friends are dead
Push me to the edge
All my friends are dead
Push me to the edge

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Uzi Vert’s song XO TOUR Llif3 depict a narrative of a relationship gone wrong that has pushed the artist to the edge. Uzi states that he is “quite alright” and “my money’s right,” but the repetition of the line “Push me to the edge” throughout the chorus reveals that he is far from alright. The artist references a girl who is not afraid to die, which suggests that she may have suicidal thoughts or is putting herself in harm's way. Uzi’s relationship with his girlfriend is deteriorating, “I just want that head, my Brittany got mad, I’m barely her man now,” and his friends are struggling as well, “All my friends are dead.”

Uzi is struggling to deal with the pain of his relationship, which is where the line, “Xanny help the pain, yeah,” comes in.

By the time of the bridge, Uzi realizes that he cannot die because this is his universe, which showcases a numbness and acceptance of the pain he is feeling.

Overall, Uzi Vert’s lyrics in XO TOUR Llif3 delve into themes of relationships and coping with pain. It illustrates Uzi's journey with his girlfriend and his friends, both of whom are struggling, and his descent into drug use, which is a way of dealing with the pain.
