Last Hurrah
Bebe-Rexha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm done with the drinking, I'm done with the smoking
I'm done with the playing, I'm done with the joking
I'm done with the ladies, I'm done with the fellas
Just sayin' (yeah)
Farewell tequila, so long margarita
And lady sativa, I hate to leave ya
Don't want the pressure, I don't need a lecture
No, thank you, honey, God bless ya

I know I've said it all before (said it all before)
But it won't hurt to do it all once more

This is my last hurrah, once I start
I ain't gon' stop 'til I go too far
Last hurrah and it's okay
Maybe tomorrow I won't feel this pain
Last hurrah
Last hurrah

I'm done with the heartache, I'm done with the demons
Can't wait to be normal, right after this weekend
I'm done with the drama, I'm fixing my karma
One more night of pure nirvana

I know I've said it all before
But it won't hurt to do it all once more

This is my last hurrah, once I start
I ain't gon' stop 'til I go too far
Last hurrah and it's okay
Maybe tomorrow I won't feel this pain
Last hurrah
Last hurrah

Maybe I'll never change
But I'm still glad I came
Try again another day
But for now

This is my last hurrah, once I start
I ain't gon' stop 'til I go too far
Last hurrah and it's okay
Maybe tomorrow I won't feel this pain

I'm done with depression
I'm done with anxiety
I'm done with overthinking
I'm done with crying
I'm done with sadness
I'm done with laziness
I'm done with being backstabbed
Can't wait to be happy
Can't to be alive
Can't wait to be cheerful
Can't wait to be proud
<3 <3 <3

'Last Hurrah' is about vices. We all have them. It’s not just about smoking or drinking, it’s about love, food or any of our bad habits. It’s our final anthem to all our vices as we seek a new tomorrow and a better us. And then do it all again tomorrow.

@olegzlatoustovskiy8501

Absolutely right !!! And in any case this work is art, not just another song, so it needs more delight, irritation and discussion

Bebe Rexha praying for you. You are beautiful and have a beautiful voice. Use your talents to shed positivity and class. To shed light in a world full of enough darkness. Don’t let the devil fool you. Pleading the blood of Jesus over you. You said the only person you would apologize to for this video is God and that should mean more to you than worrying about apologizing to people. God is the one in control of all things, he is the creator of life. People do not take Jesus serious enough these days and it really shows.
