Lyrics
I think I'm living the dream now, baby
I feel like I'm currently experiencing an ideal life situation, baby
Paying rent like a boss
Paying rent confidently and successfully
Outta college and I go to work daily
I graduated from college and now engage in daily work
Even if I'd rather not
Even though I may prefer not to
But
However
Gotta get that money, bitch
I must earn money, emphasizing the financial situation
Slow my bleedin' out bank account sitch
Taking precautions to avoid financial troubles
Slippin' money in my 401k, yeah I'm
Investing in my 401k for the future, indicating financial responsibility
Savin' up for a rainy day
Saving money for unforeseen circumstances
We're clinically depressed and that's okay
Expressing acceptance of clinical depression
Sittin' round waitin' for darker days
Waiting for challenging and difficult times to come
Just another kid's been led astray
Feeling like just another person led astray or misled
Sittin' round waiting for darker days
Anticipating and waiting for darker and more challenging days
I cried myself to sleep last night
Describing a personal emotional struggle, even with a good night's sleep
Got a full eight hours, it was so tight
Had a satisfying full eight hours of sleep
Need my rest for my 9-to-5
Emphasizing the need for rest due to the demands of a 9-to-5 job
Cause if I'm tired I can't do my boys right
Linking personal well-being to the ability to fulfill responsibilities to friends ("boys")
Got no plans for the weekend
No specific plans for the weekend
Gonna try and write
Attempting a creative endeavor, possibly writing
Mentally jump in the deep end
Mentally challenging oneself, but possibly ending up empty-handed
Come up empty handed, cry about it and then pretend
Expressing frustration and the tendency to pretend or mask emotions
I'm a nihilist, nothing matters anyway
Identifying with nihilism, the belief that life lacks inherent meaning
We're clinically depressed and that's okay
Reiterating acceptance of clinical depression as okay
Sittin' round waitin' for darker days
Continuing to wait for challenging times
Just another kid's been led astray
Feeling like another individual led astray or misled
Sittin' round waiting for darker days
Anticipating and waiting for darker and more challenging days
I wanna make a statement, baby
Expressing a desire to make a statement or voice opinions
I wanna say what's on my mind
Expressing the wish to speak one's mind
But now I'm too damn tired to be angry
Feeling too exhausted to be angry or assertive
I'm just a slave to the grind
Acknowledging being trapped or heavily involved in a demanding routine
I wanna make a statement, baby
Repeating the desire to make a statement or voice opinions
I wanna say what's on my mind
Repeating the wish to speak one's mind
But now I'm too damn tired to be angry
Reiterating feeling too tired to be angry or assertive
I'm just a slave to the grind
Reiterating being trapped or heavily involved in a demanding routine
I wanna make a statement, baby
Repeating the desire to make a statement or voice opinions
I wanna say what's on my mind
Repeating the wish to speak one's mind
But now I'm too damn tired to be angry
Reiterating feeling too tired to be angry or assertive
I'm just a slave to the grind
Reiterating being trapped or heavily involved in a demanding routine
I wanna make a statement, baby
Repeating the desire to make a statement or voice opinions
I wanna say what's on my mind
Repeating the wish to speak one's mind
But now I'm too damn tired to be angry
Reiterating feeling too tired to be angry or assertive
I'm just a slave to the grind
Reiterating being trapped or heavily involved in a demanding routine
I wanna make a statement, baby
Repeating the desire to make a statement or voice opinions
I wanna say what's on my mind
Repeating the wish to speak one's mind
But now I'm too damn tired to be angry
Reiterating feeling too tired to be angry or assertive
I'm just a slave to the grind
Reiterating being
