Gambino uses this song to describe the difficulties of his “rise” to the top to being a popular rapper. He mentions things such as his identity as a non-stereotypical black kid, and how when he first started doing Hip-Hop after leaving Community to pursue that career, he was hated and didn’t seem to “fit in”.
