Lyrics
Bobby got a lot on his mind
Bobby is burdened with thoughts and concerns.
Teachers say he one of a kind
Teachers acknowledge Bobby's uniqueness or special qualities.
Heaven is one hell of a grind
Life is challenging and demanding.
Trouble is so easy to find
It's easy to get into trouble.
Bobby fantasizes about the bright lights
Bobby daydreams about a glamorous life.
Blazing through the skies chasing after white lights
Chasing after success or goals with determination.
Never satisfied even with a nice life
Bobby is not content, even with a good life.
Devil in disguise if you roll the dice right
Success may have hidden risks or consequences.
Astronauts fly into the night sky
Astronauts symbolize those who venture into the unknown or take risks.
Losing control of all the wrong spaceships
Experiencing a loss of control in pursuing the wrong paths.
Run but can't hide from all the rad vibes
Unable to escape from negative influences.
Do as you're told, you know you can't say when
Obedience is necessary, and speaking out is difficult.
We got vices now
Introduction of vices, indulgences, or bad habits.
Different prices now
Different consequences or prices for actions now.
It's a crisis now
A critical situation has arisen.
Astronauts fly into the night sky
Reiteration of the risky nature of pursuing unknown paths.
Momma say one day you'll be grown
Mom advises Bobby that he will mature over time.
Pretty soon you'll reap what you sown
Consequences will catch up with Bobby eventually.
You gon' pay 'em back what you're loaned
Bobby will have to repay what he owes.
Yesterday is written in stone
Past actions are permanent.
Bobby fantasizes about the bright lights
Reiteration of Bobby's dreams and desires.
Blazing through the skies chasing after white lights
Continued pursuit of success with potential risks.
Never satisfied even with a nice life
Despite having a good life, Bobby remains unsatisfied.
Devil in disguise if you roll the dice right
Caution about hidden dangers when taking risks.
Astronauts fly into the night sky
Repetition of the metaphorical journey into the unknown.
Losing control of all the wrong spaceships
Losing control of one's direction and choices.
Run but can't hide from all the rad vibes
Unable to escape the influence of negative vibes.
Do as you're told, you know you can't say when
Emphasis on obedience and difficulty in expressing oneself.
We got vices now
Introduction of personal flaws or weaknesses.
Different prices now
The consequences or prices for actions have changed.
It's a crisis now
Highlighting the seriousness of the current situation.
Astronauts fly into the night sky
Reiteration of the risky nature of venturing into the unknown.
I know I'm out of control
Acknowledgment of being out of control.
I know I'm out of control
Repeated acknowledgment of a lack of control.
I know I'm out of control
Continued acknowledgment of a lack of control.
I know I'm out of control
Consistent acknowledgment of being out of control.
Astronauts fly into the night sky
Reiteration of the metaphorical journey into the unknown.
Losing control of all the wrong spaceships
Repetition of losing control and heading in the wrong direction.
Run but can't hide from all the rad vibes
Unable to escape negative influences and vibes.
Do as you're told, you know you can't say when
Emphasis on obedience and the difficulty of speaking out.
We got vices now
Introduction of personal flaws or weaknesses.
Different prices now
The consequences or prices for actions have changed.
It's a crisis now
Highlighting the seriousness of the current situation.
Astronauts fly into the night sky
Reiteration of the metaphorical journey into the unknown.
