Our Time

Lil Tecca's song "Our Time" is a reflection on his rise to fame and the accompanying challenges that come with it. The lyrics express a sense of bewilderment at the sudden changes in his life, particularly how people who were once distant are now claiming closeness due to his success. The repeated line, 'I'm gettin' to the racks, now that nigga call me bro,' highlights the opportunistic behavior of others now that he's making money.

The song also touches on the theme of authenticity and self-awareness. Lil Tecca questions the loyalty of those around him and whether they have contributed to his success. He ponders over his own identity and the image he sees in the mirror, suggesting a search for genuine self-recognition amidst the superficiality of fame. The lines 'Are you really that man that you see in the mirror? Is that really your gang? Did they help you get here?' underscore the importance of staying true to oneself and recognizing who is really there for you.

Moreover, the song conveys a sense of frustration with the fake personas and the exploitation he experiences in the industry. Lil Tecca feels 'really fucked up' about people using him for clout, indicating a betrayal of trust and a desire to distance himself from such negativity. Despite the hardships, there's an underlying tone of resilience and determination to succeed on his own terms, as he mentions his inevitable rise to the top.
