D-Emotion Project Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Feel like its time to fade away i hear the 808 let this 38 be the death of me
Feel like its sum wrong wit me my soul is in decay
Got another day fore i rest in peace
Feel like im locked up in a cage i kno ill neva change
Jus a mockingjay neva living free
Had a lotta time to pray a lotta things to say
For my family and my enemies
Sometimes I wanna take my life just let my soul fade away
I'm going thru the motions quick to picking up this 38
Motherfuck everybody quick to looking down on me
I'm on my lonely by myself feel like i need to medicate
Die a legend living as nobody cuz people fake
Deez haters wanna hope on ya wave as soon they think u straight
Feeling like the notorious b.i.g aint no debate
No second chances all over life got me feeling like im so lost
I'm so lost tryna see the light before its closed off
This anxiety killin me tryna hold on
Put hollow tips in my Nogen and then i doze off
Feel like its time to fade away i hear the 808 let this 38 be the death of me
Feel like its sum wrong wit me my soul is in decay
Got another day fore i rest in peace
Feel like im locked up in a cage i kno ill neva change
Jus a mockingjay neva living free
Had a lotta time to pray a lotta things to say for my family and enemies
Got the reaper aiming at my tummy seconds fore im done
I asked the lord to drop me dead im guessing he the only one
Go bananas wit my pencil while my mental need the gun
Can't talk to niggaz no solution no advice can bring me up
Closed off introverted always been a fragile nigga
Stressing everyday I feel like seeing god at every minute
Show my love to everybody that gave me support relentless
I mind my business say fuck the world cuz I'm different
Niggaz pushed out me out I could neva fit in
All this hate behind my back can't see where love will begin
At the end of the road cut it short wit my friends
I got the devil inside my body I'm giving in
Feel like it's time to fade away
I hear the 808 let this 38 be the death of me
Feel like it's sum wrong wit me my soul is in decay
Got another day fore I rest in peace
Feel like in locked up in a cage I kno I'll never change
Just a mockingjay never living free
Had a lotta time to pray a lotta things to say for my family and my enemies
Think it's time to fade away
I hear the 808 let this 38 be the death of me
Feel like it's sum wrong wit me my soul is in decay
Got another day fore I rest in peace
Feel like in locked up in a cage I kno I'll never change




Just a mockingjay never living free
Had a lotta time to pray a lotta things to say for my family and my enemies

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to D-Emotion Project's song "Fade Away" depict a sense of hopelessness and despair. The singer expresses feeling trapped and unable to change, as though they are living in a cage. They contemplate taking their own life as a way to escape their pain and find peace. The references to the 808 and the 38 suggest that they may have turned to music and/or firearms as a source of comfort or release. The lyrics also touch on themes of frustration with the world and people around them, feeling alone and unsupported, and a desire to connect with others through prayer and expression.


The metaphor of the mockingjay is particularly poignant, as the bird is known for being a symbol of rebellion and resilience in the face of oppression. The singer may be comparing themselves to the bird, feeling as though they are constantly being shot down and silenced by those around them. The repeated refrain of "fade away" underscores the sense of defeat and resignation that permeates the song, further emphasizing the singer's desire to escape their pain and find peace.


Overall, "Fade Away" is a powerful and emotional exploration of the darker aspects of human nature, while also touching on universal themes of isolation and despair.
