Get like a fit with a rage, yeah
Stackin’ a bricks in a daze, yeah, uh
I got diamonds, diamonds, diamonds
Diamonds, diamonds in my teeth
And I’m runnin’, runnin’, runnin’
Runnin’, runnin’ overseas, where?

Get it and cut it up slow
Stack it up, stack it up, stack it up

Empowerment and Wealth: Charli XCX’s “Bricks”
“Bricks” by Charli XCX, featuring Tommy Genesis, is an unapologetic anthem of success, luxury, and camaraderie. The repeated mantra of “I’m stackin’ bricks with my clique” becomes a metaphor for building wealth, self-worth, and an unbreakable bond with her crew. The song paints vivid images of luxury lifestyles—private jets, gold bars, and mansions—while balancing a playful, rebellious energy. Charli and Tommy’s verses intertwine flaunted confidence with a sense of exclusivity, emphasizing the power found in both material achievements and loyal friendships. The energetic delivery, combined with tongue-in-cheek braggadocio and self-love, turns “Bricks” into both a celebration and a rallying cry for ambition and unity.
