Lyrics

I got a couple of bags on my back

I carry some burdens on my back

My hair tied up, I'm starting to crack my head

Feeling stressed, my hair is tied up, and I'm mentally strained

Against the wall and floor

Metaphorically hitting a wall and feeling defeated

The blood keeps coming and I just can't take anymore

Experiencing continuous challenges, emotionally overwhelmed

I just can't take anymore

Expressing inability to endure further difficulties


I'm just waiting for a change in your barriers

Awaiting a positive change in a relationship or situation

'Cause in my heart I hesitate with what I'm thinking of

Internal conflict and hesitation in emotions


I've been swimming for a hundred miles

Symbolic journey, facing physical and mental challenges

My arms' getting sore but I'm not turning back

Struggling but determined, unwilling to give up

'Til I'm faster than a whale or a shark

Desiring to surpass obstacles, using marine animals as metaphors

Trust me now brother, time to win a new shark attack

Encouraging someone (brother) to face challenges bravely

Win another shark attack

Emphasizing victory over difficulties, referencing a "shark attack"


I'm just waiting for a change in your barriers

Reiteration of waiting for a positive change

'Cause in my heart I hesitate with what I'm thinking of

Continued internal struggle and uncertainty


'Cause nobody loves a spaceman

Commentary on the challenges faced by those exploring the unknown

And nobody loves their friends

Highlighting the loneliness and challenges in relationships

You look at me like I'm crazy

Perceived as eccentric or unusual by others

But you'll get what you deserve

Forewarning of consequences for actions

When suddenly the world stops

A sudden pause or disruption in life

And you think I'm not around

Suggesting an unnoticed presence

Look down baby, I'm probably in your pocket now

Metaphorical location in someone's thoughts or concerns


I'm just waiting for a change in your barriers

Reiteration of waiting for positive change

'Cause in my heart I hesitate with what I'm thinking of

Continued internal conflict and indecision


'Cause nobody loves a spaceman

Repeating the challenges faced by those exploring the unknown

And nobody loves their friends

Reiterating the difficulties in relationships

You look at me like I'm crazy

Perceived as eccentric or unusual, a recurring theme

But you'll get what you deserve

Warning of consequences for one's actions, recurring theme

When suddenly the world stops

Emphasizing the impact of sudden disruptions in life

And you think I'm not around

Suggesting an unnoticed presence during disruptions

Look down baby, I'm probably in your pocket now

Reiterating the metaphorical presence in someone's thoughts

I'm probably in your pocket now

Reaffirming the metaphorical presence, possibly in a subtle way

I'm probably in your pocket now

Repetition of the subtle presence, concluding the narrative
