Lyrics
I ain't never seen you skim the stones uh oh
I have never seen you casually throw stones; an expression of unfamiliarity with a carefree or playful side.
Didn't live long enough to live proper
You didn't live a long life to experience it properly; a reflection on a short-lived existence.
Pour the cup and lets go alone uh oh
Pour the cup and let's go alone; possibly an invitation to share a moment of solitude.
I'm making sure we are gold not copper
Ensuring that our value is like gold, not cheap like copper; emphasizing the importance of quality.
I ain't never seen you run in a long time long time
I haven't seen you run in a long time; a commentary on a lack of urgency or vitality.
Bells ringing out for a soul fly soul fly
Bells ringing for a departed soul; a somber indication of death.
Black suits yeah it's a dark life dark life
Referring to the dark aspects of life, possibly hardship or challenges.
Funeral blown in the dark night dark night
Funeral imagery in the dark night; reinforcing the theme of loss and mourning.
We had so much left to do
Expressing regret for the unfinished business or unfulfilled potential.
Why'd you pass away?
Questioning the reason for your untimely death.
Left the troubles for the next one
Leaving problems for others to deal with in the future.
For another day
Delaying challenges for another day.
Trying to figure shit out
Struggling to understand or find an alternative solution.
Or find another way
Searching for a different path or method.
Feel like sherlock but no home
Feeling like Sherlock without a home; a sense of displacement or lack of belonging.
We need a raise
Expressing a need for recognition or improvement in circumstances.
We need some praise
Desire for acknowledgment and appreciation for hard work.
Working hard for the money
Emphasizing the dedication to working for financial gain.
It ain't no phase
Stating that the effort is not a temporary phase.
Working hard for the attraction
Working hard to attract attention or success.
Not complicated
Highlighting simplicity and straightforwardness in the pursuit of goals.
Writing lyrics, writing bars
Engaged in the creative process of writing lyrics and bars.
We can't stay here
A recognition that staying in the current situation is not an option.
I ain't never seen you skim the stones uh oh
Reiteration of not seeing the person engage in carefree activities like skimming stones.
Didn't live long enough to live proper
Reiteration of a life cut short, not experiencing it fully.
Pour the cup and lets go alone uh oh
Repetition of the invitation to share a solitary moment.
I'm making sure we are gold not copper
Reaffirmation of the desire for a valuable and not cheap existence.
I ain't never seen you run in a long time long time
Repetition of the lack of recent physical activity.
Bells ringing out for a soul fly soul fly
Reiteration of funeral bells and a dark life.
Black suits yeah it's a dark life dark life
Reiteration of the challenging and dark aspects of life.
Funeral blown in the dark night dark night
Repetition of funeral imagery in the dark night.
You don't skim the stones
Asserting that the person doesn't engage in light-hearted activities.
Why'd you go alone
Raising a question about the choice to go alone.
Oh
A sigh or expression of regret for being alone.
I never need no one
Expressing self-sufficiency and independence.
I ain't never seen you skim the stones uh oh
Reiteration of not witnessing carefree stone-skimming.
Didn't live long enough to live proper
Reiteration of a life cut short without proper experiences.
Pour the cup and lets go alone uh oh
Reiteration of the invitation to share a solitary moment.
I'm making sure we are gold not copper
Reaffirmation of the desire for a valuable existence.
I ain't never seen you run in a long time long time
Repetition of not seeing recent physical activity.
Bells ringing out for a soul fly soul fly
Reiteration of funeral bells and a soul flying.
Black suits yeah it's a dark life dark life
Reiteration of the dark and challenging aspects of life.
Funeral blown in the dark night dark night
Repetition of funeral imagery in the dark night.
