Cro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now he sits slumped and don′t know what to do
Dusted gave away some important piece
Now he sits here completely incomplete
Alone
Alone
Dusted′s home is a dirty street
In it his time down here is almost complete
He relies on folks that feel
Jesus might return as he
Alone
Alone
Dusted's home is a hamster's wheel
And the hum tells him how he has to feel
He relies on folks that feel
Jesus might return
Jesus might return
Jesus might return
(Jesus)
If only a slight return (slight return)
Might return (might return) as he
As he (Jesus)
Jesus (Jesus)
Might return (Jesus)
Jesus
Slight return
The lyrics of Cro's song "711" tell the story of a person named Dusted who has recently been dumped and is feeling lost and incomplete. Dusted gave away something important, and now he sits slumped, not knowing what to do. The song describes his state of being alone, with his emotions and vulnerabilities on display for everyone to see.
Dusted's home is described as a dirty street, symbolizing his downtrodden and undesirable living conditions. It implies that his time on earth is almost complete, emphasizing a sense of hopelessness and despair. He relies on others who share his belief that Jesus might return, as if that is the only hope he clings to.
The repetition of the word "alone" emphasizes the theme of isolation and the feeling of being disconnected from others. Dusted's existence is likened to a hamster's wheel, implying that he keeps going through repetitive and unfulfilling cycles. The hum of the wheel reminds him of the emotions he should feel according to societal norms.
The mention of Jesus returning suggests that Dusted's hope lies in a future transformation or salvation. However, the use of the phrase "slight return" implies a level of uncertainty, as if Dusted's hopes are based on a small chance rather than a guaranteed outcome. Overall, the lyrics depict a character who feels lost, incomplete, and trapped in a cycle of loneliness.
