London (GT-R Remix) Lyrics – Lil Uzi Vert

London (GT-R Remix) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
Lil Uzi Vert starts by saying that people dislike the person he has become, possibly referring to his success, wealth, and lifestyle. He repeats it to emphasize that haters can’t stand his transformation. Then, he name-drops Givenchy, a high-end fashion brand, suggesting he’s spoiling a woman with expensive gifts. However, he quickly switches up, implying that he might not always be generous. Finally, he boasts about his confidence and unique style, making it clear that he stands out wherever he goes.

[Chorus]
Here, Uzi repeatedly mentions London, making it the song’s focal point. He talks about going there, but not necessarily for sightseeing—he’s more interested in foreign fashion. He questions whether people enjoy being tourists or if they just want to experience luxury. He also highlights his appeal as an American in a foreign country, attracting women who are drawn to his different lifestyle and fame.

[Verse]
Uzi continues flexing his wealth by mentioning Vetements, another high-end fashion brand. He then describes a woman who desires him, but he believes she sees him as entertainment rather than someone serious. He refuses to “come back to Earth,” meaning he’s living in his own world, possibly referring to his lifestyle fueled by fame and substances. He admits he doesn’t visit London often, but when he does, he indulges in American drügs, hinting at his preference for familiar vices even abroad. He also touches on relationships, mentioning both American love and lust, suggesting that his interactions with women are often fleeting and transactional. He notices that some women want to make money in an “American” way, possibly implying they seek fast success or luxury. He then mentions criticism from others who claim he doesn’t have the same style as them, but he dismisses their negativity, choosing instead to focus on showing love in his own way, through affection and material things.
