Lyrics
Darkness in my retinas I can't even see straight
Expressing a sense of blindness or confusion, unable to see clearly.
I don't wanna leave here yeah I know you feel hate
Reluctance to leave a situation despite knowing that someone harbors resentment.
Wish I had another way to take away the pain
Desire for an alternative method to alleviate emotional suffering.
Look me in my eyes let me hold you one time
Requesting a moment of intimacy and connection by looking into each other's eyes.
Let me tell you truth let you tell me lies
Desire for honesty in communication, acknowledging the potential for deception.
Tattoos on my skin of my friends that have died
Tattoos symbolize the memory of deceased friends, reflecting on loss.
Praying to your god can I call him mine?
Questioning the concept of God and the possibility of a personal connection.
Tried many times but he never heard me cry
Expressing frustration with unanswered prayers and struggles with faith.
I've been looking in the mirror who am I to blame?
Self-reflection on personal responsibility and accountability.
Lost so many friends I forgot their names
Memory loss regarding friends, possibly due to their passing.
Everybody dies but we never know the day
Contemplating mortality and the uncertainty of when death will occur.
Life is the cancer that we really can't escape
Metaphorically describing life as an inescapable and destructive force.
Pop another pill and I take another break
Escaping reality through substance use as a coping mechanism.
Drowning in some problems I hope you can relate
Feeling overwhelmed by problems and seeking relatability from others.
Wanna make it out but I can't catch a break
Expressing a desire for a positive change but facing persistent obstacles.
Wanna be me? Hey, why you wanna hate?
Questioning why others would harbor resentment or animosity.
Got Gucci on my waist with a frown on your face
Contrasting material possession (Gucci) with a negative emotional state.
I don't give a fuck like a tiger I'm a beast
Embracing a fearless and assertive attitude.
You can taste it in your mouth baking soda on your teeth
Metaphorically implying a bitter taste in one's mouth, possibly from life's challenges.
Haven't been the same since I left the fucking streets
Transformation and difficulty adjusting after leaving a challenging environment.
Darkness in my retinas I can't even see straight
Reiteration of the initial feeling of confusion or lack of clarity.
I don't wanna leave here yeah I know you feel hate
Reaffirmation of the reluctance to leave amid perceived hatred.
Wish I had another way to take away the pain
Repetition of the desire for an alternative solution to ease emotional pain.
Look me in my eyes let me hold you one time
Repeating the request for a moment of connection and intimacy through eye contact.
Let me tell you truth let you tell me lies
Reiteration of the desire for honesty in communication, acknowledging potential deception.
Tattoos on my skin of my friends that have died
Repetition of the significance of tattoos in remembering departed friends.
Praying to your god can I call him mine?
Repeating the questioning of a personal connection with a higher power.
Tried many times but he never heard me cry
Repeating the frustration with unanswered prayers and struggles with faith.
