Hollup
Chase Murphy's Journey: Embracing Growth and Ambition in 'Hollup'
Lyrics
Yeah
Expressing agreement or acknowledgment
Hollup' (Hollup', hollup')
Pause or wait a moment
Hollup'
Reiteration of the pause or wait
Oh, I don’t wanna' grow up, I wanna' blow up
Desire to achieve success and fame, reluctance to mature
Waitin' for a while
Waiting for some time
I’ve been told that I’m enormous
Being perceived as significant or influential
I been up n' down the isle, I ain’t even glo' up
Having experienced various phases but not yet achieved success
I got married to the money like a mafucka'
Commitment to wealth and success
Hold up
Request to pause or wait
So I told her hold up
Reiterating the request to wait or pause
Hold up
Request to pause or wait
Hold up (Hold up)
Reiteration of the request to pause or wait
Hold up (Hold up)
Continued repetition of the request to pause or wait
Hold up (Put them hands in the air like)
Encouragement to hold up, possibly in a celebratory manner
Told 'em hold up
Instructing someone to wait or pause
Hold up
Requesting a pause or wait
Hold up (Hold up)
Reiteration of the request to pause or wait
Hold up (Hold up)
Continued request to pause or wait
Hold up
Reiteration of the request to wait or pause
Hold up
Request to hold on or wait
Hold up
Request to pause or wait
So this for the local fellas I been rockin' with
Addressing local friends and supporters
It ain’t all that special from the window of this rocket ship (Nah)
Life from the perspective of fame not being as glamorous as perceived
It gets pretty lonely, ain’t no homies, ain’t no oxygen
Feeling isolated and lacking companionship or support
I can’t even breath without bigot tryna' box me in
Struggling against prejudice or narrow-mindedness
I ain’t out the East coast, wanna' see a red state (Facts)
Desire to explore a different environment (East coast), expressing frustration
Wish there was a cheat code but ain’t none in this pen game
Wishing for an easy solution in the music writing process
Feelin' like I’m Nemo, lost up in this head space (Uhuh)
Feeling lost and disoriented, likened to being a fish out of water
Need a cappuccino, work the words just like an essay
Needing a break or relaxation, comparing work to writing an essay
And no this ain’t a sprint, it’s a marathon
Life is not a short race but a prolonged effort
How that Mary go (Yeah)
Questioning about the stability of life, possibly referencing drugs
Burn a blunt to my fairy tale, that’s how it’s fairly told (Uhuh)
Using substances to cope with life's challenges
I been feelin' like a billion, but building very slow (Come on!)
Feeling rich but progress is slow
Had to get from the ground up like I’m Lil TerRio
Starting from scratch like the internet sensation Lil TerRio
So put yo hands in the air if you showed up (Ayy!)
Encouraging participation or celebration by raising hands
Or if you tryna' roll up
Inviting others to join in or partake in something
Get a gauge of what to smoke up
Assessing the available options for smoking
I’a pass that shit around, no you ain’t even gotta know us (Uhuh)
Willingness to share without needing to know each other
Welcome to the jungle, baby
Metaphorically comparing life to a jungle, warning about its challenges
You could catch the boa but I told her hold up (Yeah!)
Refusing to rush into things, telling someone to wait
(Oh) I wanna' blow up
Reiteration of the desire for success and fame
Waitin' for a while
Waiting for a period of time
I’ve been told that I’m enormous
Being seen as significant or influential
I been up n' down the isle, I ain’t even glo' up
Having experienced various phases but not yet achieving success
I got married to the money like a mafucka'
Committed to wealth and success
Hold up
Request to pause or wait
So I told her hold up
Reiterating the request to pause or wait
Hold up
Request to pause or wait
Hold up (Hold up)
Reiteration of the request to pause or wait
Hold up (Hold up)
Continued repetition of the request to pause or wait
Hold up (Put them hands in the air like)
Encouragement to hold up, possibly in a celebratory manner
Told 'em hold up
Instructing someone to wait or pause
Hold up (Hold up)
Requesting a pause or wait
Hold up (Hold up)
Continued request to pause or wait
Hold up
Reiteration of the request to wait or pause
Hold up (Oh lil' mama do that dance right)
Encouraging someone to dance
Hold up
Reiteration of the request to pause or wait
Told her hold up (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Continued encouragement to wait or pause
