It’s generally designed to be the replacement you’re looking for. It comes from google, who has a lot of C++ code. Its memory managed, but relatively fast. You can’t beat languages that are designed for speed (c, rust) but it’s not python, and it’s closer to rust than python in terms of speed. Similar to Java probably. If you’re writing a web server or anything similar you’ll be fine. I wouldn’t reach for it to crunch numbers though (eg a ML model, image manipulation).
