Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The smoke in the other
I don’t give a fuck what you saying
I’m numbing the pain
Before I go insane
They tryna take my freedom from me
Well give it up honey
I love fun
I Major in playing
Oooooooo
This drink got me leaning
I’m gone off the deep end
Oooooooo
They want me to slow down
But they don’t have a reason
One hit
Two hit
Wishing you would come inside right now
Three hit
Four hit
Knowing I shouldn't be this high right now
(high right now)
High right now
(high right now)
High right now
You say this all the time
And use me for my body
Always on my mind
I know you’re not for me
I’m waiting all the time
I can't do it right
I should change my mind
You use me for my body
Noooo all the time
Noooo all the time
The lyrics of Asia Kyreé's song "Overdose" delve into the themes of escape, rebellion, and self-destruction. The singer finds solace in temporary distractions such as alcohol and smoking, using them as a means to numb their pain and avoid going insane. They defiantly dismiss the opinions and judgments of others, vowing not to surrender their freedom. The lyrics suggest a hedonistic attitude, with the character embracing a lifestyle centered around fun and games. However, it becomes apparent that this excessive indulgence is taking a toll on their mental and emotional well-being.
The chorus captures the intoxicating effects of the substances consumed, with the singer feeling physically and emotionally consumed, almost losing themselves in the process. There is a conflict between their own desire for freedom and the external pressure to slow down, but they question why they should listen to such advice when no valid reason is given.
In the second verse, the lyrics shift to a relationship dynamic. The singer acknowledges that they are being used for their physicality by someone who is always on their mind, but deep down, they know this person is not right for them. They find themselves waiting and hoping for change but also acknowledging their inability to make the necessary adjustments. The repeated assertion of being used for their body emphasizes the unhealthy and unbalanced nature of this relationship, symbolizing a further descent into emotional turmoil and self-deception.
Overall, "Overdose" explores the cycle of self-destructive behaviors, the struggle for independence, and the consequences of being trapped in toxic relationships.
