I am attempting to decipher Lil Pump's lyrics to achieve enlightenment.
What do you guys think Lil Pump meant in the following lines from his hit song, "Gucci Gang"?

"My lean cost more than your rent, ooh (it do)
Your momma still live in a tent, yuh (brr)"


Is he referring to the general listener in the second person, or is it a specific person he is calling out? Does his specific mixture of codeine-containing cough syrup and soda cost so much that it is more than the average cost of rent? Or is he simply consuming so much of it that he has spent more on it than the average rent? Does he mean that the person or people that these lines are directed at is homeless? Is he congratulating someone on their low cost of living, as perhaps they have found a good deal? Is he insinuating that the person lives in a residence of poor condition due to their lack of wealth?

Lil Pump ad libs "it do" after the first line. I assume this is intended to emphasize said line. It is possible that he says this because the claim of the first line is somewhat incredulous, but Lil Pump is sure of his claim.

The second line may also reference homelessness, but I'm not entirely sure. I have not figured out why the mother of the person is living in a tent. We can only deduce that the mother has likely lived a tent for a significant amount of time, as Lil Pump's word choice includes the use of "still".

I would love to hear your feedback on these lyrics.

Having done some independent research, I have discovered that a brand of cough syrup commonly used for lean has been discontinued since 2014. This has resulted in a great increase in the price of making lean in some parts of the U.S. Thus, it is indeed possible that Lil Pump's lean does in fact cost more than your rent.

However, I still am unsure as to the deeper meaning of the second line.
I believe the second line stems from the fact that everyone is below Lil Pump on a hierarchy of houses with a tent being at the bottom of the pile. This means that your mum is so far down after all these years, she still lives in a tent and hasn’t progressed.

How can you make this claim when you haven't listened to his music?

I think Off Topic users may still offer valuable insight into the cryptic meaning of Lil Pump's poetry.

Well if you're looking for enlightenment you're definitely looking in the wrong place, and I'm not talking about off topic.

I don't understand what you mean. I am certain that Lil Pump's lyrics contain the secret to reaching enlightenment.

How can you make this claim when you haven't listened to his music?

Cause i'm sure thats all he says. Cause i'm 100% positive that his rhymes are hollow with no flow to follow real rappers bust a *************** all in his mouth and make him swallow.

You haven't explained how you know without listening to his music.

I know you are not serious but Jesus was pretty enlightened. Buddha and the Ancient Greek philosophers too of course. Study their wisdom if you want to start on the journey to enlightenment.

How is it spam when it's an answer to your question. Not the answer you want so you report it cause you don't like the answer. I reported your thread as flame bait and spam.

This is not flame bait. You have simply decided to flame and spam, being incapable of having actual discussion, with no provocation. You have not been baited by anyone but yourself.

You made two identical posts and claim they are not spam. They aren't constructive either, as you didn't answer my question.

That's a song? I thought it was just mindless rambling.
