Lyrics
War baby, war baby uh-uh
Expressing the term "War baby" with an interjection "uh-uh."
War baby, war baby uh, uh, uh
Repetition of the term "War baby" with additional interjections.
Can't never be free, I never felt free I
Feeling trapped and unable to experience true freedom.
I'm at war baby, war baby
Reiterating the theme of being in a constant state of conflict or war.
Yuh, conflict myself I try to be
Struggling to maintain purity but ending up in a compromised state.
Pure like water end up like pee
Metaphorically describing a journey and searching for answers.
Ran through the cycles I searched for the key
Going through cycles and seeking a solution or key.
But slowly to slowly I start to see
Realizing slowly that things don't make sense and feeling lonely.
That, nothing really makes sense and the world lonely
Expressing confusion and a sense of being lost in emotions.
I'm lost in so many emotions, I'm lost in a sea
Feeling lost in a sea of emotions and questioning identity.
What could I try to be?
Reflecting on the complexity of one's personality and identity.
What could I try to be?
-There's a lot of sides to me, what could I try to be?
-Now it's wintertime, yuh
Setting the scene in wintertime.
You staying on my mind
Thinking about someone constantly.
I was thinking you and I maybe spend some time
Contemplating spending time together in dreams.
In my dreams unrealistic so I fantasize
Recognizing the unrealistic nature of dreams and resorting to fantasies.
Love never dies, I can't figure why
Questioning the enduring nature of love.
Why you had to steal my heart?
Expressing the pain of having one's heart stolen.
Horrendous crime
Describing the emotional impact of the heartbreak as a horrendous crime.
I can't identify, how you feel inside
Difficulty in understanding the other person's feelings.
Maybe you should think about it, spend some time
Suggesting the other person should reflect on the situation.
With you it's either all or nothing that is not enough
Expressing the need for a committed relationship.
Now I'm just like call or something, yeah it's getting rough
Feeling the challenges and roughness in the relationship.
I'ma give my all or nothing until I am up
Committing to giving one's all in the relationship.
But I swear this shit get hard it's like a freight train in my gut
Describing the emotional difficulty with a metaphor of a freight train in the gut.
I don't wanna go outside so I hang them blankets up
Expressing a desire to avoid the outside world.
All day in the crib I don't want to see the sun
Choosing seclusion and avoiding exposure to sunlight.
Put in hours on the tape till I feel like this shit is done
Spending extensive time on creative pursuits.
But even when it's done, I feel like nothing is done
Feeling a sense of emptiness even after completing creative work.
Like what really do I want?
Questioning personal desires and goals.
Nothing really makes sense, and the world lonely
Reiterating the theme of things not making sense and feeling lonely.
I'm lost in so many emotions I'm lost in the sea
Reiterating the sense of being lost in emotions.
What could I try to be?
Reflecting on the complexity of one's identity and the search for purpose.
What could I try to be?
-There's a lot of sides to me
-That's another part of me
Highlighting another dimension or aspect of the person's identity.
