these days
Danny and the Champions of the World Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

These days
I find peace when I’m alone
These days
I finally gained some self-control
And You know I
Wanna tell the world
How to live your dreams and live in youth for eternity, oh no
You can get the left-right here on god, if you enter the zone, just leave me alone
You get can left right here on god, if you enter the zone, just leave me alone
I just need a 40 oz quick, and lil quick fix at home, and you know that
I’ll be good
I’ll be good

I ain’t no pillow talking
Nigga
I rather drink my liquor
Roll a couple Swisher
And watch me do my dance
I ain’t yo son or lil niga
Lord, please save a niga
My momma raised a Killa
So I killed romance
Love slow dances, and sells xans to pay her dance school
Lost labs pants, finna sag throughout the classroom
I’ve been bad, I know karmas in the restroom stalling
So we hold hands, make plans, to get away soon
Her best friends, got mans that can’t impress you
The way you shaped my heart, I won’t forget you now
These days
I find peace when I’m alone
These days
I finally gained some self control
And You know I
Wanna tell the world
How to live your dreams and live in youth for eternity, oh no
You can get the left-right here on god, if you enter the zone, just leave me alone
You get can left-right here on god, if you enter the zone, just leave me alone
I just need a 40 oz quick, and lil quick fix at home, and you know that
I’ll be good
I’ll be good
Hello hello hello
Babygirl it’s nice to meet ya
I be your baby father, cmon show me that you need one
I know we young n dumb, and love is blind but here some reasons
To show you that I’m decent, and I’ll keep you on your feet
I know you heard me on your phone speakers, call me Mr. Eager
I call you up for dumb shit, you call me when u need me




You make me, stop breathing, you blow me into pieces
Is it true that a god can hold it down with a demon

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Danny and the Champions of the World's song "These Days" touch heavily on themes of self-discovery, self-control, and independence. The singer finds peace in being alone and gaining control over themselves. They are confident in their ability to live life on their own terms and do not want to be told how to live or what to do. The repeated phrase "You can get left-right here on god, if you enter the zone, just leave me alone" emphasizes this desire for autonomy and a need to be left alone to pursue their own path. The singer also touches on their tough upbringing, being raised to be a "killer" and not believing in romance. However, they still long for connection and companionship, and are willing to put in the effort to build a meaningful relationship.
