Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Drink drank
Clearing my head while I fill up my brain
I wish it ain't but I cannot keep sane
Proof is too clear, it deposit the pain
Effort is in but got nothing to gain
Leveling up cause life feel like a game
Started with shit now they knowing my name
OD'd I can never pop another pill
Till its molly
Pop a quick few shots at your man think you sorry
Drop my head like dead what I said I'm gon' prolly
End it all depressed fuck this shit like a hobby
Hopped off the meds
Went harder 'nd harder
It's clear to me it was harder not smarter
Do not want to but I know I'm gon' part her
Like a night in Nevada
I don't understand you said never leave
You told me I was special put me right back on my knees hoe
You're always on my fucking mind, when it's late at night
I think of what you're doing, do you think of me sometimes
Wrist slit
Drink drank
Clearing my head while I fill up my brain
I wish it ain't but I cannot keep sane
Proof is too clear, it deposit the pain
Effort is in but got nothing to gain
Leveling up cause life feel like a game
Started with shit now they knowing my name
Won't ever stop till my funeral grave
OD'd I can never pop another pill
Till its molly
Pop a quick few shots at your man think you sorry
Drop my head like dead what I said I'm gon' prolly
End it all depressed fuck this shit like a hobby
Wrist slit
Drink drank
Clearing my head while I fill up my brain
I wish it ain't but I cannot keep sane
Proof is too clear, it deposit the pain
Effort is in but got nothing to gain
Leveling up cause life feel like a game
Started with shit now they knowing my name
Won't ever stop till my funeral grave
OD'd I can never pop another pill
Till its molly
Pop a quick few shots at your man think you sorry
Drop my head like dead what I said I'm gon' prolly
End it all depressed fuck this shit like a hobby
The lyrics to Demxn's song "TRAUMA" depict the artist's struggles with mental health, substance abuse, and the pain he experiences in relationships. The chorus, "Wrist slit, drink drank," is a metaphorical representation of self-harm and numbing one's emotions with alcohol. By clearing his head and filling up his brain, he tries to escape the chaos and confusion, but unfortunately, he confesses that he cannot maintain his sanity.
The line "Proof is too clear, it deposits the pain" suggests that the evidence of his emotional struggles is undeniable and that it only intensifies his suffering. Despite his efforts and hard work, he feels that he gains nothing and the pain remains. He compares life to a game and describes leveling up, implying that he is determined to rise and make a name for himself, even though his journey began in a difficult situation.
The mention of OD'ing and popping pills indicates a history of substance abuse. He expresses that he cannot take another pill unless it is Molly, a slang term for MDMA. The lyrics also include violent imagery of shooting at someone and feeling remorseful afterward. The artist is in a dark place mentally, feeling depressed and even considering ending it all, portraying this feeling as a hobby, which may suggest a distorted perception of his own suffering as a form of self-expression.
In another section, he reveals the pain caused by a specific person who promised never to leave him and made him feel special but ultimately brought him down. This person has a significant impact on his thoughts, even when it's late at night, leaving him wondering if they think of him in return.
Overall, the lyrics of "TRAUMA" delve into themes of mental anguish, addiction, failed relationships, and a longing for recognition and escape. They paint a vivid picture of the artist's emotional turmoil and the desperate measures he contemplates to find solace or release from his pain.
