Lyrics

I'm running out of time

I'm under pressure and time is running out for me.

And I'm running out of breath

I'm physically exhausted, feeling the strain.


Sometimes I feel

Expressing periodic feelings of time slipping away.

Like I'm running out of time

Reiteration of the sense of time slipping away.

Yeah I'm running out of breath

Emphasizing the physical exhaustion accompanying the time pressure.

And I can't even explain what it's doing to my head

Unable to articulate the impact on mental well-being.


Feel it in my legs

Sensations felt in the legs, possibly stress-related.

Still I'm tryna focus like I'm looking through a lens

Trying to concentrate amidst challenges, using a metaphor of looking through a lens.

What if I just wake up and see this is all pretend

Pondering the possibility that reality is an illusion.

I don't know the beginning and no I don't know the end

Uncertainty about the origin and conclusion of the situation.

I just want my bread

Desire for financial success or stability.

I ain't tryna vent, baby, I just don't repent

Not expressing emotions, avoiding remorse.

Gasoline scent

Ambiguous reference to a distinctive scent, possibly related to a substance.

Smoking on gelato

Indulging in smoking a particular strain of cannabis.

Burning feeling in my chest

Feeling a burning sensation in the chest, potentially linked to smoking.


Feel it in my chest

Reiteration of a physical sensation in the chest.


Sometimes I feel

Recurrence of the theme of time slipping away.

Like I'm running out of time

Reinforcing the sense of time running out and breath fading.

Yeah I'm running out of breath

Emphasizing the physical toll on breath and the mental impact.

And I can't even explain what it's doing to my head

Difficulty in explaining the psychological effects.


I don't know what to believe in, I just wanna feel it

Uncertainty about beliefs, seeking emotional experience.

I'm smoking blunts in the evening in garden of Eden

Engaging in substance use in a metaphorical "garden of Eden."

No spirits, no demons, just feeling the freedom

Desiring freedom without external influences.

No spirits, no demons, no, I cannot hear 'em

Claiming an absence of supernatural elements.


I cannot hear 'em loud

Inability to perceive external influences strongly.


Sometimes I feel

Reiteration of the recurring theme of time slipping away.

Like I'm running out of time

Re-emphasizing the physical and temporal challenges.

Yeah I'm running out of breath

Highlighting the impact on breath and the difficulty in explaining the mental strain.

And I can't even explain what it's doing to my head
