Lyrics
“I’m caught in a trap
Threw way the key and I never looked back
Don’t look at me and what’s that in my back?
All I got is love but my heart screams attack x2
Guess I gotta get it from the get go
Had a lotta lovers wouldn’t leave it so I let go
They only be sayin I’m a sucker cause I said so
Hyped like a huckleberry, where’d your homies head go? Huh?
We only do if it’s ten toes, wait.
Is it deep is it down?
You a sheep or a clown?
They be feeling profound
Really reachin around
It be creepin us out
Man I feel for me now
Please don’t read this out loud, Fuck.
Shit
Get back into it
Bad rap influence
Is all I had
So can I act diligent
Wait a minute Dylan
Now do that shit different
Get back under the bus
What you runnin from?
What’s the rush?
Stay right here and play with us
Okay guys really that’s enough
Okay guys really that’s enough
Okay guys REALLY THATS ENOUGH
Okay guys let’s fuck shit up
Gonna face myself
Gonna knuckle up
Better buckle up
Not a runner up
Not a runner but
I’ll keep runnin what
You keep wantin huh?
Tortured mind of an artist
That’s what I like to call it
Sick of all this word vomit
Think you gotta call the pot an alcoholic”
The lyrics represent a conflict. At the beginning, the artist seems to believe that the conflict is external, slowly coming to realise that it's internal, a battle against their own mind & predisposition to addictive tendencies. The song is highly emotional, there is a lot of anger, doubt, fear & sadness. There is an undeniable vulnerability to it, you get the sense that the speaker craves unconditional love, like a scared kid with no boundaries or protection. It's the story of someone coming to terms with their demons.
The speaker is tired, fighting constantly just to survive his own mind. But there is an underlying sense of unwavering determination to confront & tackle those issues before he drowns in them. The core theme seems to be addiction & some kind of mental disorder. There is a strong sense of feeling lost, struggling to find direction, & two sides of the same person desperately fighting for control over the other. It’s about growing up, maturing and taking accountability so he can change for the better, even if you get the sense he’s not quite sure if he can make it.
