NET WURTH

Tommy Richman's song 'NET WURTH' delves into the complexities of self-worth, relationships, and the emotional turmoil that often accompanies them. The repeated question, 'What's your net worth?' serves as a metaphor for evaluating one's value, not just in monetary terms but also in terms of personal integrity and emotional stability. The lyrics suggest a sense of frustration and disillusionment with people who lie and fail to get their lives together, causing the narrator emotional pain and headaches.

The song also touches on the theme of escapism. The narrator mentions smoking and listening to music with a friend, specifically referencing PinkPantheress, a contemporary artist known for her introspective and often melancholic music. This act of listening to music serves as a temporary escape from the harsh realities and emotional burdens the narrator faces. The mention of '1942,' a high-end tequila, further emphasizes the desire to numb the pain and avoid confronting the issues at hand.

Another significant aspect of the song is the narrator's struggle with understanding and dealing with other people's attitudes and behaviors. The repeated line, 'Don't want you there with your attitude,' highlights the emotional exhaustion and the desire to distance oneself from toxic relationships. The narrator acknowledges their inability to save or change others, emphasizing a sense of resignation and acceptance of their limitations. This theme is further reinforced by the repeated use of 'Fuck it,' indicating a sense of giving up on trying to fix or understand the complexities of human relationships.
