Lyrics
Sleepin’ on this floor I’ll drive the sky
Sleeping on the floor, I contemplate the vastness of the sky
And when some drops of your sweat
Symbolic representation of effort or hard work, with sweat representing dedication
try to cover my shoulders
The effort and dedication of others weigh on my shoulders
I need to lay in the dust that blinds my eyes
I feel the need to experience hardship that obscures my vision
On the cake I’m blowin’ all my lies
Metaphor for exposing and confronting one's lies or falsehoods
How they charge tons on me, man!
Feeling burdened by the expectations and judgments of others
It’s a no matter-day
A day that doesn't matter, suggesting indifference or emotional detachment
I spare
I refrain or hold back from something
You keep on movin’, guy
Encouragement to persevere and keep moving forward
And always keep on lookin’
An advice to remain observant and vigilant
You try to look who I am
Others attempt to understand or judge my identity
I am
A simple affirmation of existence
I am…
Repetition of affirmation, emphasizing self-awareness
To be less than being what I can
Desire to be more than one currently is
I don’t know if I’m ready, I don’t make enough
Uncertainty and lack of preparedness for something
Too long the way, man, I don’t take a new breakthrough
Reluctance to embrace change or take new opportunities
I’ll be there again
An expectation or hope to return to a certain state or place
I, when I’m frozen,
Feeling immobilized or stuck in a frozen state
Slow the ways
Deliberate slowing down of progress or movement
To arrive at my end
Struggling to reach a desired destination or goal
I try to look who I am
Continued introspection into one's identity
Who(ooooooo)
Expressing a contemplative sound, possibly representing uncertainty
I am
Reiteration of self-awareness
Peace or war, I’m an african
Identification with being African, possibly addressing heritage or identity
You remember of your own
A reminder of personal experiences or memories
On the right side, I do raise an high wall
Building barriers or defenses on the right side, possibly metaphorical
We’re unchosen
A sense of not being chosen or selected
Do you understand, there’s no time and I’ve
Understanding the absence of time and the challenge of preserving one's sanity
Almost saved my mind
Nearly reaching a point of mental salvation or stability
Lost in my mind
Experiencing a state of being mentally lost
I’m lost in my mind
Repetition of being lost in one's mind, emphasizing the theme
Butterfly
Mention of a butterfly, possibly symbolizing transformation or fragility
Little guy
Reference to a small individual, possibly symbolizing vulnerability
Little girl
Reference to a young female, extending the theme of vulnerability
Live and fly
An encouragement to live freely and soar like a butterfly
