Lyrics
I wasn't born last night but I feel brand new
I have experience, but I currently feel refreshed and new.
Almost like a past life where I got these tattoos
Similar to a previous existence where I acquired these tattoos.
I've been working on self improvement
I have been actively working on self-improvement.
If the leader is sick it doesn't help the movement
If a leader is unwell, it hinders progress in the collective effort.
I was self accusing I was health abusing
I used to blame myself and harm my health.
I was looking for a way to love myself as human
I sought a way to love myself as a human being.
Dear notepad, know it's been a while
A message to a notepad, acknowledging a lapse in communication.
Since you've heard my voice sober
It's been a while since the notepad heard the artist's voice while sober.
Instead of drunken freestyles
No more intoxicated freestyles; a desire for a clear expression.
I've been hoping that it's cool
Expressing a hope that changing the topic is acceptable.
If I change up the topic
Considering a shift in focus or subject matter.
(To some this might be corny
Some might find it cheesy, but to the artist, it's monumental.
But to me it's colossus)
A confident and energetic start, with a lifetime ahead.
Jetted free with a head of steam
Earlier in life, the desire for fame was prominent.
Whole life ahead of me
Realizing that inner peace is invaluable and defines the legacy.
When I was younger all I wanted was celebrity
Emphasizing the positive impact of opening up to new perspectives.
But peace of mind is dope as fuck and that's how you'll remember me
Metaphorical reference to rain and a decline in ego.
What a difference it can make just to open up the blinds
Feeling serene and content in the mind.
Rain soaking on the pine
Realization that fame on a large scale may not be suitable.
Yea my ego on decline my libido isn't trying
Recognition of the joy found in smaller, genuine connections.
Feeling peaceful in the mind
Acknowledging the value of personal growth and development.
Recently I stumbled on
Discovery that the artist may not be meant for widespread attention.
That I ain't meant for the Jumbotron
Despite that, some good people appreciate and resonate with the artist's work.
But some good people sing along
Validation from others who consider the artist's work their favorite.
Tell me it's their favourite song
Acknowledging the worthiness of personal growth and improvement.
Yea it's worth working on
Not engaging with direct messages, focusing on seizing the day.
I ain't checking my DM's
Carpe diem attitude, prioritizing experiences over achievements.
I'm carping my diems
A shift from seeking external validation to concentrating on inner peace.
I ain't focused on achievements
Highlighting the importance of family, specifically Couch Money.
I'm tryna focus on my breathing
Contentment found in the simplicity of family bonds.
Couch Money that's the family
Reflecting on the earlier desire for fame and the evolved preference for peace of mind.
That's really all that I need
A repetition emphasizing the value of inner peace over celebrity.
When I was younger all I wanted was celebrity
A reaffirmation that despite experience, there's a sense of renewal.
But peace of mind is dope as fuck and that's how you'll remember me
Similar to the first line, expressing a renewed and refreshed state.
I wasn't born last night
Reflection on past experiences, feeling rejuvenated in the present.
But I feel brand new
Similar to line 2, evoking a sense of rebirth and transformation.
Almost like a past life
A metaphorical reference to a previous existence marked by tattoos.
Where I got these tattoos
A continuation of the metaphorical reflection on personal transformation.
