Sort It Out
Caesars Palace Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I want to smoke crack
cause you never coming back
I want to shoot speed balls
put my head against the wall
I want to sniff glue
cause I can't get over you

Am I gonna sort it out
Am I gonna sort it out

I want to smoke crack
cause you never coming back
I want to shoot speed balls
put my head against the wall
I want to sniff glue
cause I can't get over you

Am I gonna sort it out
Am I gonna sort it out
Am I gonna sort it out
Am I gonna sort it out

Am I gonna sort it out
Am I gonna sort it out




Am I gonna sort it out
Am I gonna sort it out

The lyrics could also be interpreted as a critique of societal views on addiction, as the singer seems to view drug use as a symptom of a deeper emotional issue rather than a moral failing. By listing out their desire to use drugs alongside their inability to "get over you," the singer implies that their addiction is rooted in their emotional pain rather than a lack of willpower or moral character.


Overall, "Sort It Out" is a sad and melancholy song that speaks to the complex and often painful ways that people cope with heartbreak and addiction.
