Aminé Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I-I-I-I've been keepin' to myself and stayin' out the way
I've been always on my lonely 'cause I can't change
I-I've been seein' how they talkin' and I'm outraged
I-I've been takin' care of me, don't need a damn thing

I've been livin' on an island too
I-I've been livin' on an island too
I-I've been livin' on an island too
I-I've been livin' on an island too (yeah)
Tell me, can we?

Shawty suck my dick, then I get lost in the abyss
I'm a quiet motherfucker but I like to talk my shit
I'm off a shroom, I'm off a bean, I'm off a whole lotta shit
You could bet I'm in my head but you could bet I'm in your bitch (livin')
Look, these niggas be my sons, without me, they'd be done
Where the fuck would you get all your mood board pictures from?
That's why I been livin' on this island with my blunt
Ignorin' all these niggas 'cause my energy is priceless

I've been livin' on an island too
I-I've been livin' on an island too
I-I've been livin' on an island too
I-I've been livin' on an island too
Tell me, can we?

I've been keepin' to myself and stayin' out the way
I've been always on my lonely 'cause I can't change
I-I've been seein' how they talkin' and I'm outraged
I-I've been takin' care of me, don't need a damn thing (baby, can we?)

Look, my energy is priceless, told my jeweler, "Ice this"
I'm way too decisive, don't catch that ego-itis
When I'm up in London, everybody say, "Your Highness"
Not because I'm royal but because I be the highest
Sippin' champagne, bitch, I do my damn thing
Born for this like Matt Dam', red whip look like Chastain
People be so phony, that's why I be on my lonely
Pe-Pe-People be so phony, that's why I be on my lonely

I-I-I-I've been livin' on an island too
I-I've been livin' on an island too
I-I've been livin' on an island too
I-I've been livin' on an island (baby, can we?)

People be so phony, that's why I be on my lonely
Pe-People be so phony, that's why I be on my lonely-lonely
People be so phony, that's why I be on my lonely
Lonely, lonely

Sip-sippin' champagne, bitch, I do my damn thing
Born for this like Matt Dam', red whip look like Chastain
Sip-sip-sippin' champagne, bitch, I do my damn thing
Born for this like Matt Dam', red whip look like Chastain

When things were at their very worst:
2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid – repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
Beware – Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
After WW3 – rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist – the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
- will seem to rise from the dead
- will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
Benedict XVI is the last true pope - will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.

"Arab uprising will spark global unrest – Italy will trigger fall out"

"The time for the schism in the Church is almost here and you must get prepared now"

Idk if Aminé comes up with the visuals on his own for videos, but man they’ve been amazing for years. Also the several ways you can interpret the music depending on how your mood is. You could crank to a song like this one or be in your feelings. Either way he deserves praise this dude really does it different. One of my favorite artists.

@claymershon5254
