CROSSBONES
Navigating Changes: A Journey Through Shattered Reflections
Lyrics
I found your skull and crossbones
I discovered a symbol of danger or warning associated with death (skull and crossbones).
A mile from where you stayed
It was found a short distance from where you resided.
The places that I have gone
Reflecting on the places I've visited.
Seem oh so far away
Those places now seem distant or far from my current state.
The person that I once was
I've undergone a significant transformation from the person I used to be.
That ship done sailed away
The past version of myself has moved on or changed.
I ain't nothing
Emphasizing a sense of worthlessness or insignificance.
I ain't nothing
-I ain't nothing
-Like I used to be at all, at all, no
I am not the person I once was.
All my baggage, I ain't check for the damages
I haven't addressed or dealt with the consequences of my actions.
Catch a flight if I could, run away when I'm panicking
If possible, I would escape when overwhelmed or anxious.
See the places I should, leave tonight
Considering leaving for better places tonight.
I can't handle too many changes at once
Struggling with handling multiple changes simultaneously.
All my emotions mismanaged
My emotions are not well-managed or controlled.
But I ain't got no time to waste so we should go
Despite time constraints, it's suggested that we should move forward.
Let's go find a place the sun is so hot, the music's loud
Desire to find a vibrant place with heat and loud music to escape overthinking.
I don't wanna think too much, I do enough of that
Expressing a reluctance to overanalyze and think excessively.
Baby, I been contemplating pictures in cabanas
Contemplating images in luxurious settings (cabanas).
All these different situations, only chance for me to answer
Various situations provide the only chance to find answers.
All the questions I been asking, all these bitches on the 'gram are nauseating
Expressing dissatisfaction with superficial displays on social media.
I'mma need a change of pace, a waste of breath, shit, I'm exhausted
Desire for a change and expressing exhaustion.
Always tryna write a hit and catch a check is motherfucking awful
The process of creating hits for financial gain is tiring and unpleasant.
I'm just gon' make music for the hell of it and chill with my bitch
Choosing to create music for personal enjoyment and spending time with a partner.
I'm sick of being in my head I'm finally flipping the switch like
Rejecting overthinking and choosing a more carefree approach.
I found your skull and crossbones
Repetition of the theme of personal change and a departure from the past self.
A mile from where you stayed
-The places that I have gone
-Seem oh so far away
-The person that I once was
-That ship done sailed away
-I ain't nothing
-I ain't nothing
-I ain't nothing
-Like I used to be at all, at all no
-Yeah
A transition in the narrative.
Sea salt in my waves, felt it dripping
Sensory description of sea salt in waves.
Memories like sand grains and they slipping through my fingertips
Memories slipping away like sand grains.
Lips tasting my tears before my tongue
Tasting tears before expressing emotions verbally.
Sun-kissed by these images
Positive imagery associated with being kissed by the sun.
Sky's cerulean
Colorful and vibrant description of the surroundings.
Water's aquamarine like crystals mixing with the sapphire we been sipping
-If we both leave at the same time
If both parties leave simultaneously, there is no one to blame.
There's nobody to blame
Symbolic reference to the transient nature of relationships, written in the sand.
We wrote our names in the sand and now they're washing away
