Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'd rather save every last dime to earn something
I'd rather be alone in Barcelona
I'd rather be alone in Barcelona
I gave it all back for a time that wasn't nothing
I'd rather save every last dime to earn something
I'd rather be alone in Barcelona
I'd rather be alone in Barcelona
Hoes always start with the extra shitthen they just make they self worthless to you and that's exactly what these niggas do
I always smile when the hating come
Jitting and drip when I walk 223's spit when it bark
I do my dance in the dark these n be spitting gibberish this is artWe move the bag like bachata
Cocoa go cook the Fajitas
Blockas sound like maracas
and yes I do believe in Jesus
Money make them into true believers young thug with the jubileeYeah I'm plugged tell me what you seeing
Break the bread so it's stretchable
The wickedest witch can't put a hexing on it
The flick of the wrist go put a blessing on it put dick in a bitch then call a taxi co
Before I leave I thought you ought to know that
I gave it all back for a time that wasn't nothing
I'd rather save every last dime to earn something
I'd rather be alone in Barcelona
I'd rather be alone in BarcelonaI gave it all back for a time that wasn't nothing
I'd rather save every last dime to earn something
I'd rather be alone in Barcelona
I'd rather be alone in Barcelona
In the song "Barcelona" by Cornelius Sims Jr, the lyrics express a sentiment of sacrifice and determination. The artist reflects on a past experience where he gave up everything for a period of time that ended up being insignificant or unfulfilling. He regrets wasting his resources and instead emphasizes the importance of saving money to achieve something meaningful. The line "I'd rather be alone in Barcelona" suggests that the artist values being alone, possibly seeking solitude or self-reflection in a distant place like Barcelona.
The lyrics also touch upon the artist's encounters with relationships. The reference to "stacking fettuccine" implies the artist's ability to attract attention and affection from others. However, he recognizes that these individuals often leave after fulfilling their own desires, demonstrating the fleeting nature of these encounters. The line "heart hard as rock for the messages it won't break when the pressure comes" implies that the artist has developed resilience and an emotional shield to protect himself from heartbreak or disappointment.
The lyrics further emphasize the artist's self-assuredness in the face of negativity or criticism. He mentions smiling when faced with hate and maintains confidence in his own abilities. The references to dancing in the dark and spitting gibberish as an artform suggest a disregard for traditional norms or expectations. This artistic expression may be a way for the artist to show his true personality and authenticity.
In the latter part of the song, the artist touches on the influence of money and materialism. He acknowledges that money has the power to turn people into believers, suggesting that it holds significant influence over others' perceptions. The line "Break the bread so it's stretchable" refers to finding ways to make money last, ensuring its longevity and impact. The artist also asserts that no amount of negative energy or witchcraft can deter his success, as he possesses the ability to bring blessings and happiness to his life. Ultimately, the artist reiterates his preference to be alone in Barcelona, reinforcing his desire for introspection and personal growth.
