Lyrics
Shame on me when I chose to fall
Feeling regretful for choosing to fall or make a mistake.
I lost myself and lost it all
Experienced a loss of self and everything as a consequence.
But now I'm back and I'm better
Having returned from difficulties and feeling improved.
So whatever
Adopting a carefree attitude towards circumstances.
I don't need applause I got my own two hands
Self-sufficiency; not reliant on others' approval.
I stripped myself bare to be my only fan
Being a supporter of oneself, even in vulnerable states.
I laid it all out but God had other plans
Offering everything but realizing divine intervention altered plans.
I learned the whole game, now I prefer the stands
Understanding the system but choosing not to actively engage.
Why don't you write a song about it?
Encouraging someone to express their experiences in music.
You know there's nothing wrong with doubting
Embracing doubts as a natural part of life.
You know that you a human being
Acknowledging one's humanity and fallibility.
I know that shit gets too misleading
Acknowledging the confusion that life's situations can cause.
You know that you got next, next, next
Reiterating that the listener has opportunities coming.
Some shit gets old to hear
Some things become tiresome to repeatedly hear.
Twenty-one is too old for fear 'cause
Feeling that being 21 is too old to be fearful.
The whole plan's to feed the fam and buy some land
Life goals include supporting family and owning property.
And disappear
Desire to vanish or escape from certain circumstances.
My mom was a mom by my age
Comparing one's age and responsibilities to parents' experiences.
My dad always made some shit shake
Admiring a parent's ability to handle challenges.
If I do not do it for them
Feeling a responsibility to fulfill obligations for parents.
Then I feel like this shit's a waste
Sense of wasting opportunities if not fulfilling parental expectations.
Why don't you write a song about it?
Encouragement to turn experiences into musical expression.
You know there's nothing wrong with doubting
Reinforcing the acceptance of doubts as normal.
You know that you a human being
Recognizing one's human nature despite complexities.
I know that shit gets too misleading
Acknowledging the confusion or misdirection life can bring.
You know that you got next, next, next
Reiterating the idea that the listener has a future opportunity.
I don't need applause I got my own two hands
Emphasizing self-reliance and not needing external validation.
I stripped myself bare to be my only fan
Being a supporter of oneself, regardless of vulnerability.
I laid it all out but God had other plans
Offering everything but experiencing a change in plans by a higher power.
I learned the whole game, now I prefer the stands
Learning about life's workings but choosing to observe from a distance.
