Upside Down
B-Case Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was like upside down
Like earth was on top of me
I was upside down
You know it's funny
Cause I ain't got a second to chill
And you admire it
But life is fucking strange on this hill
Look in the face your devils
I see what I have like medals
Noticing in little things beauty and essence
Like painting a picture of levels of heaven
Don't change my facial expression
Synthetic resin depression
Drawing some smiles on my face like it was geometric progression
Purple hazing time trying to excape from my repression
Voice recorder in my phone knows all the words of my confession
Everyday new ideas trapped in question
I rekon it's time to proceed back to regression
Cause
I was like upside down
Like earth was on top of me
I was upside down
You know it's funny
Cause I ain't got a second to chill
And you admire it
But life is fucking strange on this hill
Ay
We're focusing on the wrong things
We expect some tenders
But we receive just bullets
We shouldn't have to text
If we only had knew the best
Never coming back to your ex
Because f*cking Milan is flex
My body just go flipping
My mind cant keep admitting
There is nothing that I'm missing
I won't stop until I'm breathing
My body just go flipping
My mind cant keep admitting
There is nothing that I'm missing
I won't stop until I'm breathing! (Ay!)
I won't stop until I'm breathing! (Ay, Ay!)
I won't stop until I'm breathing! (Ay, Ay!)
I won't stop until I'm breathing! (Ay!)
Won't stop until I'm f*cking breathing!
I was like upside down
Like earth was on top of me
I was upside down
You know it's funny
Cause I ain't got a second to chill
And you admire it
But life is fucking strange on this hill
Ay
I was like upside down
Like earth was on top of me
I was upside down
You know it's funny
Cause I ain't got a second to chill
And you admire it
But life is fucking strange on this hill




I am upside down
And that's okay
