Lyrics

So what's the root of all evil if the love is lust and if the money ain't a thing why's it hard to trust.

Questioning the root of evil when love is perceived as lust and trust becomes challenging despite money being seemingly insignificant.

And when they tell my that I can't why do I combust?

Reflecting on the tendency to combust when told 'no,' questioning personal motivations.

And why the fuck am I still not on the bus?

Expressing frustration at not progressing despite efforts, using the metaphor of being not on the bus.

It's hard to lose when all was lost, but when you end up like me it's like you're in another Holocaust.

Feeling like a personal loss is comparable to being in another Holocaust, a metaphor for intense suffering.

Getting burnt by the people that you love so much.

Experiencing betrayal from loved ones, questioning the value of such relationships.

So what the fuck, you lost your touch and gonna break down.

Acknowledging a loss of capability or effectiveness and anticipating a breakdown.

Looking around, tell the whole world that you're running on fate now.

Publicly declaring reliance on fate, possibly as a coping mechanism.

But when You're breaking it down it's like your own dam people got a whole lot of hate now.

Observing a pervasive sense of hatred within one's own community when breaking things down.

But it ain't gonna stop me, all I know is I know that I got me.

Asserting determination despite challenges, emphasizing self-reliance.

At the end of the day things change it's strange but I know that it's not me.

Acknowledging the inevitability of change, recognizing personal growth.


Oh my god I'm on my own.

Reiterating the feeling of being on one's own, emphasizing self-sufficiency and dedication to work (overtime).

I said oh my god I'm on my own.

-

But it ain't no thing, ain't got no time, and I ain't gon' change what's on my mind, I'm always on my overtime, I'm grinding like all the time.

-

Like oh my God I'm on my own.

-

I said oh my god I'm on my own.

-

But it ain't no thing, ain't got no time, and I ain't gonna change what's on my mind, I'm always on my overtime, I'm grinding like all the time.

-

I'm out in Montana making plans for the east coast, Johnny Rotten tour for the fans so they seem close.

Describing the challenges of touring, feeling isolated despite being surrounded by people, and the constant struggle for connection.

I'm just trying to meet 'em all, show 'em what they mean yo.

-

Living on the road there's a lot you gotta devote.

-

Lot you got to give up to give to the people, always gotta get up and show 'em they are equal.

-

But I'm still on my own, when I'm in a crowded place I am all in my zone.

-

I'm just trying to make it home but my home's like a month out.

-

Driving on my own and I don't wanna punch out.

-

Lookin' at my phone and I see a new time zone, every time I roam I'm alone about to bug out.

-

Tell me that I'm gonna find a place someday, that I'm gonna find a better way to pace my way.

Expressing a desire for a better life pace and the difficulty of maintaining greatness in the face of current challenges.

Cause I can't keep going at the rate that I am, if I do then I'm not being great as I can.

-

Oh my god I'm on my own. I said oh my god I'm on my own.

Reiterating the theme of being on one's own and maintaining a strong work ethic (overtime).

But it ain't no thing, ain't got no time, and I ain't gon' change what's on my mind, I'm always on my overtime, I'm grinding like all the time.

-

Like oh my God I'm on my own.

-

I said oh my god I'm on my own.

-

But it ain't no thing, ain't got no time, and I ain't gonna change what's on my mind, I'm always on my overtime, I'm grinding like all the time.

-

More money where the fame goes, but I don't do it for the pesos.

Balancing the pursuit of fame with a focus on personal growth and the challenges of maintaining mental well-being in the process.

Either way my name grows.

-

All the people in the videos telling me to get it yo, telling me to get it yo.

-

But they don't know that I sit alone at home tryna maintain and calm the storm.

-

It's a long windy road when I'm all alone, when I'm all in my head with a heart of gold.

-

I'm pushed and pulled and lost inside, I'm told I've gone and lost my mind.

-

Got lots emotion locked that's why, it's hard for me to realize.

-

I've made it to the pinnacle my difficult time is done tell me that I'm pitiful, my syllables hit and run.

-

I swear I'm in a race where the pace is based by the pace of the face of the rising sun.

-

Oh my god I'm on my own.

Repeating the sense of being on one's own, emphasizing a commitment to personal beliefs and continuous hard work.

I said oh my god I'm on my own.

-

But it ain't no thing, ain't got no time, and I ain't gon' change what's on my mind, I'm always on my overtime, I'm grinding like all the time.

-

Like oh my God I'm on my own.

-

I said oh my god I'm on my own.

-

But it ain't no thing, ain't got no time, and I ain't gonna change what's on my mind, I'm always on my overtime, I'm grinding like all the time.
