Lyrics

I know that things are getting tougher

Things are becoming more challenging.

When you can't get the top off from

Struggling to open up or make progress.

The bottom of the barrel

Facing difficulties or challenges at the lowest point.

Wide open road of my future now

The path ahead in my life is wide, but it's not promising.

It's looking fucking narrow

The future seems constrained and limited.


All I know is that I don't know nothing

Expressing uncertainty and acknowledging a lack of knowledge.

We get told to decide

We are instructed to make decisions.

Just like as if I'm not going to change my mind

Suggesting resistance to committing to a decision without the possibility of changing one's mind.


All I know is that I don't know nothing

Reiterating a lack of knowledge or certainty.

Whatcha gonna do with yourself?

Asking about the listener's plans and decisions.

Boy, better make up your mind

Encouraging the listener to make a decision promptly.


Whatcha gonna do with yourself, boy?

Repeating the question about the listener's future actions.

You're running out of time

Emphasizing the urgency of making a decision, implying time is running out.


This time I got it all figured out

Claiming to have everything figured out this time.

All I know is that I don't know nothing

Reiterating a lack of knowledge and accepting it without concern.

And that's fine

Embracing the idea that not knowing everything is acceptable.
