Push To Start (feat. Juice Wrld)

In 'Push To Start,' Tmmrw and Juice Wrld use the metaphor of a car race to explore themes of urgency, danger, and the fast-paced lifestyle often associated with fame and substance abuse. The repeated lines 'The race is beginning, everybody push to start their engines' set the stage for a high-stakes environment where every moment counts. This metaphor extends to the idea of life as a race, where individuals are constantly pushing themselves to the limit, often with reckless abandon.

Juice Wrld's verses delve deeper into the darker aspects of this lifestyle. Lines like 'Caught him at the red light, had to leave em dead right' and 'Shoot him in his head right, we don't aim for legs right' suggest a violent, cutthroat world where survival is paramount. The references to drug use, such as 'Taking them Xannys, imma fuck around and stop time' and 'I've been taking Percs to bed,' highlight the self-destructive behaviors that often accompany this high-speed chase. These substances are portrayed as both a coping mechanism and a means of escape, albeit a dangerous one.

The song also touches on themes of existential despair and nihilism. The line 'Said she wanna go to hell, baby just jump off the ledge' starkly illustrates a sense of hopelessness and the allure of self-destruction. The imagery of 'crash landing' and 'space Coupe attraction' further emphasizes the chaotic and unpredictable nature of this lifestyle. Despite the glamorous facade, the underlying message is one of caution, warning listeners about the perils of living life in the fast lane.
