D.veloped Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not coming down from the top
Staying high
Me and my brothers don't know who you are
My VVS keeps on giving me shine
I am reflecting I'm bright in the sky
Not coming down from the top
Staying high
My VVS keeps on giving me shine
I am reflecting I'm bright right in the sky
The whole town knows us, fuck the clout
My girl screaming so loud when I pound
Your bitch ugly as fuck, she so dry
Smoking bud second day, moms we can fly
Shut the fuck up, watch me put racks on racks
Me high as always eating munchies UK snacks
Too much money - won't fit in all the bags
I ain't touching losers, snitches and all the slags
Feelin' that high on the fucking ganja
Spyin on the feds like a silent ninja
Giving Moncler to hell a broke people
Reload that 47 like a huge desert eagle
Eatin some bread
Seing leo messi
Looking kinda dressy
Me - Lingard, Jesse
Being on that skunk
Sippin' on that soda
I'm washing that 'rarri
I don't even know ya
Expensive cars
Explicit bars
Me, my gs right in this bitch
Have no idea who you are
Never been down from the top
Balling a lot be smoking pot
Never been down in my life
Never been I'm really high
Never been down in my life
I'm really high
I'm really high, aye (High)
Yeah
Not coming down from the top - staying high
Me and my brothers don't know who you are
My VVS keeps on giving me shine
I am reflecting I'm bright in the sky
Not coming down from the top - staying high
Me and my brothers don't know who you are
My VVS keeps on giving me shine
I am reflecting I'm bright right in the sky
Gs showing good shit and fire bars
Private school - boys expensive cars
Private school boys - expensive shit
In the house we never switch off the beat
Even if were broke we always got weed
I'm telling you, fuckers, we're different breed
***** fast like Kobe, punch like Creed
2 Grams in my joint is what I need
If you're snitching you not a real g
Drivin' on the high way - AMG
I take no sedans, only SUV
I have many problems so better be
If you're snitching you not a real g
Drivin' on the high way - AMG
I take no sedans, only SUV
I have many problems so better be
Yeah
Not coming down from the top
Staying high
Me and my brothers don't know who you are
My VVS keeps on giving me shine
I am reflecting I'm bright in the sky
Not coming down from the top
Staying high
Me and my brothers don't know who you are
My VVS keeps on giving me shine
I am reflecting I'm bright right in the sky
The lyrics to D.veloped's "Spirit In The Sky" are braggadocious in nature and focus mainly on the theme of staying high both literally and metaphorically. The singer claims to stay elevated in all aspects of life, be it through drug use or material possessions. They assert that they are always shining bright like a VVS diamond and looking down upon everyone else from the sky. The verses also reference their disinterest in associating with those who they consider 'losers, snitches and all the slags' and their obsession with luxury items like Moncler jackets and expensive cars. The lyrics are filled with profanity and reflect the arrogance of the singer who believes themselves to be superior to everyone else.
The song itself features a trap beat and a repetitive chorus which further reinforces the message of staying on top in every aspect of life. The verses are reminiscent of traditional gangsta rap but with a contemporary hip-hop sound. The use of VVS diamonds as a metaphor for the singer's own shine is a classic hip-hop trope that has been used by many artists in the genre.
