Social Distancing
Navigating Love's Labyrinth: Jah the Prophet's Social Distancing
Lyrics
Been social distancing my heart
Expressing emotional detachment or isolation from love and relationships.
And yea I know that love don't ever last I been infected so I know that it's contagious
Acknowledging the impermanence of love and drawing a parallel between love and a contagious infection.
Angels play a harp
Symbolic reference to angels playing a harp, possibly indicating a spiritual dimension or influence.
Barley talk to god so I'ma ask why I've been blessed with spoken word so I could make this
Reflecting on blessings and questioning the purpose of being gifted with spoken word abilities.
And plus I made a pact to do the right things
Commitment to doing morally right things.
Time to mop up all this water that my eyes bring
Expressing the need to overcome emotional struggles represented by tears.
My hearts been like a ice pack need a nice drink
Comparing the heart to an ice pack, suggesting emotional numbness or coldness.
But if I pour another cup I think I might sink
Contemplating the consequences of further emotional indulgence.
Hate drugs that I abuse I reup packs before they run out
Expressing dislike for drug abuse and a proactive approach to maintaining a supply.
Darkest of my days can't show me shade if there ain't sun out
Facing challenges with resilience when there is no apparent support.
Brodie caught a case in police face he pulled a gun out
Describing a friend's encounter with the law and advising a different path.
Told him he should money chase he chose to play and go the dumb route
Encouraging a focus on financial success rather than risky behavior.
She'd tears but not for too long you a grown man
Addressing the need for self-reliance and independence during tough times.
No one here to ease the weight you hold your own hand
Encouraging self-sufficiency when facing challenges.
You lost but not for too long missed your whole chance mind be clouded tryna tell you that your soul can't
Acknowledging loss but emphasizing the importance of moving forward.
Ever make it out with this doubt ain't no roses here to sprout a couple baggies and some needles on the pavement
Describing a difficult environment with drug paraphernalia on the pavement.
I don't see no scouts here to vouch for the tricks I'm pulling out I skipped the draft cause they ain't giving me no placement
Expressing a lack of recognition for personal achievements and skills.
I lost but I won't pout life's about learning lesson in and out they ask my weakness still ain't giving them no statements
Accepting losses as lessons and maintaining a resilient attitude.
Bucks under the couch spilling out all these checks I'm giving out investing hard I'm tryna get up out this basement
Highlighting financial progress and determination to rise from a difficult situation.
I'm social distancing my heart and yea I know that love be ending fast it's probably shorter than this music on this playlist
Reiterating emotional detachment and the fleeting nature of love.
Dancing in the dark kinda find it odd that could laugh while going through it I go through the shit in phases
Finding humor or irony in facing challenges and difficult phases.
I travel with a slight few it's a nice team brodie here so they be scared cause we don't fight clean
Describing a tough and intimidating group that doesn't shy away from conflict.
But soon it's just them nice suits with the ice clean but for now it's Nike techs with overpriced jeans
Anticipating a future of success and luxury contrasted with the current reality.
It's bad to cheat your worth I heard that fear that don't ever run out
Emphasizing the importance of self-respect and not undervaluing oneself.
Baiting on your gift could let it slip then it won't come out
Warning against neglecting one's talents and potential.
Reflection looking sick a different image in this fun house
Describing a distorted self-image in challenging situations.
Distort you favorite pics no simple fix you looking strung out
Highlighting the impact of challenges on personal well-being.
Could cry but not for too long you a grown man
Encouraging emotional resilience and self-reliance.
Fuck the past you can't be dwelling on your old plans it's time to make a new song get some more fans got some goals so I was wrong to say my soul can't
Rejecting dwelling on the past and urging the creation of new opportunities.
Ever make it out with this doubt ain't no roses here to sprout a couple baggies and some needles on the pavement
Reiteration of the challenging environment with drug references.
I don't see no scouts here to vouch for the tricks I'm pulling out I skipped the draft cause they ain't giving me no placement
Expressing frustration at the lack of recognition for personal achievements.
I lost but I won't pout life's about learning lesson in out they ask my weakness still ain't giving them no statement
Accepting losses as part of life's lessons and maintaining a strong stance.
Bucks under the couch spilling out all these checks I'm giving out investing hard I'm tryna get up out this basement
Reiterating financial success and determination to improve living conditions.
