Shannon's Ladder
BBY GOYARD Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Evilgiane, surf gang bitch

You was tryna save face, I was tryna get some
I ain't even packed yet
It's really hard to pick one
Oh, she love my shirt
Well it's really hard to get one
Down to earth till the FN beam 'em up

Got my own problems



She just got some drug problems
The devil in the details
I ain't felt the flames but I've seen hell
Now everybody's watching

Everybody's watching
Some moccasins just to walk it off in
My brother brought the wok in
I do the Steven Hawking
Designer bag talkin'
Tell that girl please shut
Up when Shannon talkin'
Took a yellow pill now I
Go proceed with caution
Stone Island jacket let the fog in
Double F's on the boy like Fallen

You was tryna save face, I was tryna get some
I ain't even packed yet
It's really hard to pick one
Oh, she love my shirt
Well it's really hard to get one
Down to earth till the FN beam 'em up

Got my own problems
She just got some drug problems
The devil in the details
I ain't felt the flames but I've seen hell
Now everybody's watching

Got my own problems
She just got some drug problems
The devil in the details
I ain't felt the flames but I've seen hell
Now everybody's watching

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to BBY GOYARD's song "Shannon's Ladder" paint a picture of two individuals with contrasting motives. Evilgiane, referred to as a "surf gang bitch" in the opening line, seems to have had a superficial interest in the singer, as she was "tryna save face" while he was "tryna get some." The singer seems to have left after the encounter, as he hasn't yet "packed" anything, and it's difficult for him to choose between potential partners.


The mention of drugs is prevalent throughout the song, with the singer acknowledging that "she just got some drug problems," but he also alludes to his own "problems." The line "The devil in the details" can be interpreted in various ways, but it could be a nod to addiction and the power that details and habits can have over one's life. The singer, however, has not "felt the flames but [has] seen hell," meaning that he has witnessed the consequences of addiction, but has not experienced it himself.


The last line, "Now everybody's watching," hints at the pressure that comes from public scrutiny and criticism. It's unclear who "everybody" refers to, but it could be society at large, fans, or peers. The singer, however, seems to remain grounded despite the attention, choosing to remain "down to earth" until the "FN beam 'em up," indicating that he remains humble until he achieves success.
