C-Rex Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

By your side
I can't help how I feel inside
Feel like I'm losing my mind
But I rather be by your side
Crashed a Beemer
Straight off the liter
Don't wanna see her
Last girl was a diva
You wanna meet her
Well I cant take no sides
No No
Cause I'm in the arms of the end
Cause the best parts of days
When I don't know how it's funny
How it all seems just to fall down
You think its over
I don't even wanna hear the noise
Cause at the end of the day
I'm just the edgy, anxious, rockstarboy
So come on closer
I don't need no closure
In my eyes a loner
But your never sober
Because its 10 reasons why I keep falling to pieces
I know 9 bitches that get lit and they Puerto Rican
I got 8 chains around my neck
7 minutes I can spend
For 6 months
And 5 days
And 4 songs that were meant
Numbers in my back account keep adding up like royalty
But so are all the reasons why I feel like I can never sleep
3 albums ain't enough
See the 2 points and I cant breathe




Cause finally it dawned on me
That I am not the one you seek

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of โ€œOn Topโ€ by C-Rex describe a sense of being lost in love, where the person is unsure about their emotions, but one thing for sure is they would rather be with their significant other. The lyrics point to a recent breakup, hinted in the reference to a previous relationship with a โ€œdivaโ€ and the singerโ€™s desire to move on. The singer admits to being in a self-destructive state, as evidenced by the crashed BMW and drinking habit. Despite feeling trapped and alone, he connects with the listeners through his vulnerability, painting a picture of how he finds solace in music and creating art. The chorus suggests a kind of inner conflict โ€“ he wants to distance himself from the problems haunting him but at the same time, he needs someone to lean on.


The second part of the song describes him going through a rollercoaster of emotions and experiences at the same time. He lists the number of people he has been with, the amount of money he has, his fame, and the pressure to keep it up, but with this comes the weight of responsibility, shattered expectations and pressure to produce more hits. The song concludes with the idea that he has come to terms with the fact that he isnโ€™t the one that the person he loves wishes to be with but he still wants to hold onto his music, as it is the only thing that brings him inner peace and purpose.
