Why the only time I feel alive is when I wanna die?
Yeah, tellin' me, "You can be the one," yeah
And, honestly, I don't really buy it, yeah
Hoe, shut up, be quiet
Just spend the night and suck dick, it's up

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "The Only Time I Feel Alive" by Craig Xen & XXXTENTACION are quite dark and disturbing. The song touches on themes of depression, suicide, and self-destructive tendencies.

They are admitting that they don't feel alive or fully present in their life except when they are having thoughts of suicide or self-harm.


The rest of the lyrics are a mix of braggadocious lines about wealth and success, as well as explicit sexual content. These lines seem to be a coping mechanism for the singer, distracting themselves from their dark thoughts by focusing on material things and pleasure. The line, "Hoe, shut up, be quiet," may be directed at the singer's own thoughts, telling them to quiet their depressive thoughts and focus on the moment.


The bridge of the song features repeating "oohs" and "ahs," perhaps symbolizing the cycle of depression and fleeting moments of happiness that the singer experiences. Overall, the song is a disturbing but honest portrayal of the mental struggles that some people face.
