Miscommunication and Materialism in 'Over Your Head'

Future's song 'Over Your Head,' featuring Lil Uzi Vert, delves into themes of miscommunication, materialism, and the complexities of modern relationships. The repeated phrase 'everything I said went right over your head' underscores a sense of frustration and disconnect between the speaker and his partner. This line suggests that despite his efforts to communicate, his words and intentions are not being understood or valued by the other person. This miscommunication is further highlighted by the act of leaving messages on read, a modern-day symbol of ignoring or dismissing someone's attempts to reach out.

The song also explores the lavish lifestyle and material wealth that both Future and Lil Uzi Vert have achieved. References to spending millions of dollars, owning luxury cars, and wearing high-end fashion brands like Chanel and Christian Louboutin paint a picture of opulence and excess. These material possessions are not just status symbols but also tools for attracting and impressing others. However, this focus on wealth and luxury also hints at a deeper emptiness, as the relationships described in the song seem superficial and transactional.

Additionally, the song touches on themes of infidelity and fleeting connections. The line 'fuck it off and end up with your best friend instead' reveals a casual approach to relationships, where loyalty and commitment are easily discarded. This behavior is juxtaposed with the speaker's self-perception as a 'big dog,' someone who is above the petty concerns of others. Yet, this bravado masks a sense of isolation and the inability to form meaningful connections. The song ultimately portrays a world where communication breaks down, and material wealth cannot compensate for emotional fulfillment.
