Used To
Embracing Shadows: A Journey Through Addiction and Desire
Lyrics
Ima be honest: I smoke too much
Admission of excessive smoking
It gives me that lovely smell of death
Describing the scent associated with smoking
I admit I'm an addict
Acknowledging addiction
But I'm not weak
Asserting personal strength despite addiction
Can you feel my breath
Questioning if others can sense the impact of smoking on breath
Used to be able to run
Reflecting on the loss of physical capability
Used to be able to go out, have fun
Expressing nostalgia for past social activities
Used to be able to sing higher
Noting a decline in vocal ability
Thought screw that, u got fire?
Questioning someone's passion or energy
Used to be able to run
Reiterating the loss of physical capability
Used to be able to go out, have fun
Revisiting the nostalgia for past social activities
Used to be able to sing higher
Repeating the decline in vocal ability
Thought screw that, u got fire?
Repeating the question about passion or energy
That's just my breath
Emphasizing the impact of smoking on breath
That's just my breath
Reiteration of the impact of smoking on breath
That's just my breath
Continued emphasis on the impact of smoking on breath
That's just my breath
Further emphasis on the impact of smoking on breath
But I could quit whenever I want at least that's what i tell myself
Claiming the ability to quit smoking at will, albeit with doubt
But quitting man, that just ain't fun and makes you gain weight as well
Highlighting the negative aspects of quitting smoking
It's when that cough hits you
Describing the moment when the negative effects of smoking become evident
You feel a sense of doubt
Expressing doubt and concern when experiencing a cough
I don't wanna die
Expressing a fear of death
I need a cigarette
Expressing a desire for a cigarette to cope with stress
I'm so stressed out
Acknowledging high stress levels
Can you feel my breath?
Repeating the question about the perceptible impact of smoking on breath
Used to be able to run
Recalling the past ability to run
Used to be able to go out, have fun
Recalling the past enjoyment of social activities
Used to be able to sing higher
Recalling the past ability to sing at a higher pitch
Thought screw that, u got fire?
Repeating the question about passion or energy
Used to be able to run
Reiterating the past ability to run
Used to be able to go out, have fun
Reiterating the nostalgia for past social activities
Used to be able to sing higher
Reiterating the past ability to sing at a higher pitch
Thought screw that, u got fire?
Repeating the question about passion or energy
U got fire?
Repeating the inquiry about someone possessing passion or energy
