About This Track

Jaden opens 'Fast' with a simple, repeated question: why does she drive so fast? The song builds from that hook into a restless meditation on speed, ambition, and the pressure of visibility. He moves between addressing a girl moving too quickly through life and reflecting on his own trajectory, the two narratives bleeding into each other as the track accelerates. The verses pile on images of fame and youth colliding. Jaden raps about living in the public eye, cameras and scrutiny following him, whilst also trying to hold onto something real. There's a tension between the fantasy of success and the cost of it, between wanting to live freely and knowing that freedom is being watched. The production keeps pace with the lyrical energy, matching the song's central obsession with movement and momentum.

"Fast" is a track by Jaden, released 1st October 2014. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Fast

[Intro]

Yup!

[Verse]

Why you drive so fast? Why you drive so fast?

Girl where you gotta go? Girl where you gotta go?

Baby you should try and drive slow

You should try and drive slow

Cause you're going 45 on the 15

I'm just tryna stay alive on the big screen

When you comin' up to drive all the kids scream

I don't know baby girl you're movin' onto better things

Usually you don't be using me

I'm dead you cry at my eulogy

Magic like Houdini

Baby you taking my scrutiny out with the fireworks

This isn't new to me

Damn baby jump off the roof with me

Live up your youth with me

Before they shootin' me

With all their cameras and bullets

I swear I'm the man up in France with the hooligans

Yeah, I'm up with Centipede, you do not answer me

I'm in the canopy, livin' my life like a fantasy

Sleep with the girl of my dreams on the weeks

So I sleep and I see my reality

Battle me, that's your fatality

Actually, I'm a catastrophe

Go to your school and they ask for me

I'm in your class making cash

And we're fruity like passion

It's burning like ashes

We had to just make this ish happen

He's rappin' again, he's snappin' again

It happened my friends

I'm back with the Benz

And I know you jokers stay pissed

So I had to make you pre-exist
