Lyrics
Wonderin' does this repetition get me anywhere
Wondering about the effectiveness of repetitive actions and their impact on progress.
Number 8 rhymes with great, so that's what I'm gonna be
Aspiring for greatness, possibly using the association of the number 8 with success.
Superstition yields paranoia
Linking superstition to the development of paranoia.
And plans get foiled, the chance recoils
Acknowledging that plans can be thwarted, and opportunities may retract.
How many times I gotta do somethin' before it's okay
Questioning the number of repetitions needed for an action to be considered acceptable.
How many times I gotta do somethin' before it's the right way
Expressing uncertainty about the correct or optimal way to perform a task.
And what's the right way
Pondering the concept of the "right way" to do something.
What even is the right way
Reflecting on the ambiguity of the concept of the "right way."
There's gonna be a ghost of me
Expecting a lasting impact or consequence on one's identity.
Cus of my OCD
Attributing a potential ghostly presence to the influence of OCD on the self.
In the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, yeah
Reiterating the impact of OCD on the individual during the night.
In the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, yeah
-Superstition one bad batch of cocaine for ya head
Associating superstition with potential negative consequences, like a dangerous substance.
You put me to bed and now you keepin' me up aw god
Describing the disruptive nature of an experience that keeps the person awake.
Superstition yields paranoia
Repeating the link between superstition and the development of paranoia.
And plans get foiled, the chance recoils
Reiterating that plans may fail and opportunities may retract due to superstition.
Stare a hole in the wall see my hand still on the poster
Visualizing a focused, obsessive action, possibly related to OCD.
So can I say that I'm actually closer
Raising the question of proximity to a goal due to obsessive actions.
One day Imma be like number 8
Expressing a desire to achieve a state similar to being number 8, implying success.
All good all good all good all good sir
Affirming a positive state, possibly related to success or well-being.
There's gonna be a ghost of me
Anticipating a lasting influence on identity due to OCD.
Cus of my OCD
Linking the presence of a ghost to the impact of OCD on the self.
In the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, yeah
Repeating the theme of OCD's impact on the individual during the night.
In the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, yeah
-Ah there's gonna be a ghost of me
Reiterating the expectation of a lasting impact due to OCD.
Cus of my OCD
Linking the presence of a ghost to the influence of OCD on the self.
In the ni- the, the night, the, the night
Continuing to emphasize the impact of OCD during the night.
In the night, the night, the night, the, the night
-Aw yeah now
Expressing affirmation or agreement with the preceding statements.
