Overthinking Lyrics – Tee Grizzley

Overthinking Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
This part is just setting the vibe, saying the beat and melody are really good and that the song is going to be a hit.

[Chorus]
Here, he talks about how much he stresses and overthinks things, often being his own harshest critic. Sometimes he doubts himself but reminds himself that he’s strong and capable. He believes that if you start making some money, you can keep growing it bigger and bigger with no limits. His goal is to make huge amounts of money, like a quarter billion, after already hitting ten million. He’s come a long way from being broke and locked up to now being free and wealthy, but he’s still not used to that feeling. He also mentions ignoring calls sometimes because people bothering him seem crazy, and warns not to question why someone would take another’s girl since she was willing.

[Verse 1]
In this verse, he describes flashy things like shining jewelry and how people around him act. His friend’s girl is upset because he’s not answering his phone, but he’s just doing his own thing. They’re always watching for anyone who thinks they can challenge them but can’t find anyone brave enough. If someone wants money, they get it but also get dealt with if they mess up. He’s not interested in hearing about who’s losing fame or success. He doesn’t want fake respect from anyone because his new expensive watch already shows his status. He admits to hating some people and also the women who cause problems. He says it’s not Halloween but there are still a few “ghosts” (fake or untrustworthy people) around.

[Pre-Chorus]
He feels like he might need a therapist because of all the mental weight he carries. He’s been praying and working hard to succeed without any help or inheritance. Even though he tries to act fearless, he’s scared of jealousy from his own people, knowing they could easily get whatever they want but still act jealous.

[Chorus]
He repeats that he stresses and overthinks a lot, always judging himself. Sometimes he gets caught up in his feelings but reminds himself that he’s powerful. He believes money grows if you start with some and work hard. His ambition is huge, aiming for way beyond what he already made. He went from tough times like jail to being free and rich but still doesn’t fully understand that new life. Sometimes he ignores calls from people acting crazy, and he tells others not to ask why someone would take another’s girl because she was willing.

[Verse 2]
This verse talks about his past in jail and how far he’s come, now wearing expensive watches (AP’s) that sparkle like Frosted Flakes. He warns people to be careful how they talk to him because he can mess with their minds and get them paid or get revenge. He knows about people who spend all their money on partying because he’s the one selling to them. He’s seen friends switch sides, fake loyalty, and girls who leave people easily. He reminds listeners that he’s from Detroit, where he had his first fight early on, and that he’s always ready to protect himself, even leaving clubs with a gun for safety.

[Pre-Chorus]
Again, he mentions needing a therapist because of the stress he carries. He’s proud that he made it by himself without any help. Even though he acts brave, he’s really scared of jealousy and envy from people close to him, especially when they could easily get what they want but still act bitter.

[Chorus]
He stresses and overthinks, always criticizing himself but also reminding himself of his strength. He believes starting small with money can grow into something huge, and his goal is massive wealth beyond what he’s already achieved. He’s gone from tough situations like jail to living rich, but it still feels strange to him. He ignores calls sometimes from people acting crazy and warns not to question why someone would take another’s girl because she was down for it.

[Outro]
This part repeats how his jewelry shines bright and talks about how dangerous people around him are always ready on time. He mentions that his friend’s girl is upset because he’s not answering his phone, but he’s just focused and moving.
