Lyrics

On my best days felt the pain, my best days felt the rain

Felt pain on my best days, indicating struggles even during positive moments.

I was fourteen with the slide back just looking where to aim

Reflecting on adolescence at fourteen, uncertain about life's direction.

On my best days felt the pain, my best days felt the rain

Repetition of line 1, emphasizing the enduring nature of pain.

I was fourteen with the slide back just looking where to aim

Repetition of line 2, reinforcing the theme of searching for purpose.

If today I blow up, then tomorrow I ain't gon' show up

If success comes suddenly, there's a fear of losing touch with one's dreams.

Cause when shit happen overnight, people lose the dream in they sight

Overnight success can lead to losing sight of aspirations.

I remember being fourteen, praying to God to shed some light

Recalling prayers at fourteen for guidance and illumination.

But if God shed that light, I'd probably never learn how to fight

If divine intervention occurred, personal growth might be hindered.

Cause I hate my situation, world round gave me some motivation

Disliking current circumstances provides motivation for change.

Couple broken hearts and drug abuse, the shit that I was facing

Mentions of heartbreak and drug use, illustrating personal challenges.

Watching momma fold and dadda go, got my mind oh really pacing

Observing family struggles, contributing to emotional turmoil.

I ain't wanna live this life no more, so happy days I'm chasing

Desire to escape a difficult life and pursue happiness.

On my best days felt the pain, my best days felt the rain

Reiteration of enduring pain during the best days.

I was fourteen with the slide back just looking where to aim

Repetition of line 2, emphasizing the teenage struggle.

On my best days felt the pain, my best days felt the rain

Restating the persistence of pain during positive moments.

I was fourteen with the slide back just looking where to aim

Emphasizing the ongoing search for purpose at fourteen.

Freshmen year I was wishing I could blow my brains out with a piece

Expressing a dark moment in freshmen year, contemplating self-harm.

Too depressed with my life, not speaking to anyone for weeks

Struggling with depression, avoiding communication for weeks.

I was running through the motions, couldn't see past household commotions

Caught up in daily struggles, missing opportunities provided by God.

Too distracted to see the way better doors that our God opens

Being distracted prevents seeing the positive paths God offers.

Cause if I ain't live my worst days, then I'll never know my best days

If worst days are not experienced, the best days won't be appreciated.

My best days are my worst days and my worst days are my best days

Paradoxical statement, suggesting the intertwining of best and worst days.

Cause if I ain't live my worst days, then I'll never know my best days

Reiteration of the importance of facing worst days for personal growth.

My best days are my worst days and my worst days are my best days

Emphasizing the reciprocal relationship between best and worst days.

On my best days felt the pain, my best days felt the rain

Repeating the experience of pain on the best days.

I was fourteen with the slide back just looking where to aim

Repetition of the struggle at fourteen, seeking direction.

On my best days felt the pain, my best days felt the rain

Reiteration of the persistence of pain during positive moments.

I was fourteen with the slide back just looking where to aim

Repeating the search for purpose during adolescence.

I ain't feel the pain no more

Expressing liberation from past pain.

I ain't feel the pain no more

Reiteration of the freedom from past pain.

I ain't live my life, ain't live my life and the rain just ain't no more

Not living in the past and overcoming difficulties, and rain symbolizing hardships.

I ain't feel the pain no more

Repetition of the emotional release from past pain.

I ain't feel the pain no more

Continued expression of emotional relief from previous pain.

I ain't live my life, ain't live my life and the rain just ain't no more

Stating the choice to move forward without dwelling on past pain.

I ain't feel the pain no more

Reiteration of the emotional liberation from pain.

I ain't feel the pain no more

Continued emphasis on the absence of previous pain.

I ain't live my life, ain't live my life and the rain just ain't no more

Choosing to live without being burdened by past pain.

I ain't feel the pain no more

Reiteration of the emotional liberation from past pain.

I ain't feel the pain no more

Continued expression of the absence of previous pain.

I ain't live my life, ain't live my life and the rain just ain't no more

Deciding to live without the weight of past pain.

On my best days felt the pain, my best days felt the rain

Recalling enduring pain on the best days, highlighting the journey.

I was fourteen with the slide back just looking where to aim

Repetition of the struggle at fourteen, searching for direction.

On my best days felt the pain, my best days felt the rain

Reiteration of the enduring pain during positive moments.

I was fourteen with the slide back just looking where to aim

Repeating the search for purpose during adolescence.
