Lyrics

Never had it easy easy like krule

Comparing life difficulty to that of Krule (possibly referencing King Krule, an artist). The speaker did not have an easy life.

Back then I was a metal kid scraping through school

Reflecting on being a metal enthusiast during school days, struggling to get through education.

Nowadays I can read them like a book

Currently, the speaker can easily understand situations or people.

I can feel your motive so don't take me for no fool

Warning someone not to deceive them, as the speaker can discern their intentions.

Was used to feeling frozen, now shit's speeding up

Previously feeling emotionally numb, now experiencing a faster-paced life.

But the current keeps me balanced with the drink in my cup

The speaker maintains balance despite the speed of life with the help of alcohol (drink in the cup).

Moretime you'll never see me in a club

Rarely seen in clubs, suggesting a preference for a more solitary lifestyle.

17, No I.D I'll be bunning good stuff

At 17, engaging in substance use without official identification (No I.D).

Used to hate everything and everyone

Previously harboring hatred for everything and everyone.

Cynicism in my veins, I was always on my ones

The speaker had a cynical outlook, often being alone (on my ones).

From a young age was that one jammed gun

From a young age, the speaker felt like a problematic or misunderstood person.

Turned into a dark horse, where the fuck you think I'm from

Transformed from a troubled individual into someone mysterious or unconventional.

Used to hate everything and everyone

Reiteration of a past state of hating everything and everyone.

Cynicism in my veins, I was always on my ones

Continued reflection on past cynicism and solitude.

From a young age was that one jammed gun

Repetition of the speaker being a troubled individual from a young age.

Turned into a dark horse, where the fuck you think I'm from

Reiteration of transforming into a mysterious or unconventional person.
