In short, it is satanic, Black mass stuff. While the represents purification, regeneration, and admission to the Christian Church, the reversing the rite represents the exact opposite. In the above scene, Lil Uzi reverses the religious rite of baptism, which consists in being submerged in water. It is about the corruption of “holy” symbols for black magic.
