Eighteen
Embracing the Present, Evading Tomorrow's Worries
Lyrics
I ain't never worried 'bout the future
I am not concerned about what lies ahead.
I've been moving quiet by myself that the usual
I've been discreetly navigating on my own, different from the usual.
They're digging their own grave, yeah they planning their own funeral
Others are harming themselves, planning their own downfall.
Don't know what else to say, I got nothing else to prove
I don't have anything else to say, and I don't need to prove myself.
But I do know
Transition to the next thought or theme.
I ain't never worried 'bout the future
Reiteration of not worrying about the future.
I've been moving quiet by myself that the usual
Reiteration of moving quietly on my own.
They're digging their own grave, yeah they planning their own funeral
Reiteration of others causing their own downfall.
Don't know what else to say, I got nothing else to prove
Reiteration of having nothing more to prove.
But I do know
Reiteration of a transition to the next thought or theme.
Do know I got someone watching over
Awareness of having someone watching over.
Halo on my head but the demon on my shoulder
Contrast between a halo and a demon, possibly inner conflicts.
Always thought I'd understand it more as I got older
Expected understanding with age, but the world remains challenging.
But age don't mean a thing when the world keeps getting colder
Age doesn't provide clarity when the world becomes harsher.
Its cold here
Transition to a description of the cold environment.
Can't roll without my people
Dependency on personal connections in challenging times.
The way I'm moving now, we're going higher than the steeple
Moving towards higher goals despite challenges.
They'll take what they want and more and then just call it equal
Others take more than their share and label it as equal.
On guard when they're around but on my knees in the cathedral
Being cautious when others are present but vulnerable in certain situations.
I ain't never worried 'bout the future
Reiteration of not worrying about the future.
I've been moving quiet by myself that the usual
Reiteration of moving quietly on my own.
They're digging their own grave, yeah they planning their own funeral
Reiteration of others causing their own downfall.
Don't know what else to say, I got nothing else to prove
Reiteration of having nothing more to prove.
But I do know
Reiteration of a transition to the next thought or theme.
I ain't never worried 'bout the future
Reiteration of not worrying about the future.
I've been moving quiet by myself that the usual
Reiteration of moving quietly on my own.
They're digging their own grave, yeah they planning their own funeral
Reiteration of others causing their own downfall.
Don't know what else to say, I got nothing else to prove
Reiteration of having nothing more to prove.
But I do know
Reiteration of a transition to the next thought or theme.
I do know
Emphasis on the awareness mentioned earlier.
I ain't a kid no more but how
Acknowledgment of no longer being a child.
I feel the blessings coming down
Feeling blessed despite challenges.
But I'm already down and out
Despite blessings, feeling down and out.
I'm down and out, yeah
Confirmation of being down and out.
18 guess that I'm the man now
Being 18 and acknowledging adulthood.
Since a kid I told myself that I would stand out, yeah
Since childhood, aspiring to stand out.
Can't lose its catching up to me
The consequences of actions catching up.
Skidding back to my reality
Returning to a harsh reality.
Let me go, let me go, let me go
Repeated plea or desire to be let go.
Let me go, let me go, let me go
-Let me go, let me go, let me go
-Let me go, let me go
-I ain't never worried 'bout the future
Reiteration of not worrying about the future.
I've been moving quiet by myself that the usual
Reiteration of moving quietly on my own.
They're digging their own grave, yeah they planning their own funeral
Reiteration of others causing their own downfall.
Don't know what else to say, I got nothing else to prove
Reiteration of having nothing more to prove.
But I do know
Reiteration of a transition to the next thought or theme.
I ain't never worried 'bout the future
Reiteration of not worrying about the future.
'Bout the future
-Nah I ain't never worried 'bout the future
Final confirmation of not worrying about the future.
