When It's Over
DreamDoll Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How do I go on when I know I'm on one
Wish I could explain seem like I got no one
Wake up everyday feel like I just want it to be over...
When I got the whole world on my shoulders
I could feel the end getting closer...
Feel like I just want it to be over
Would they still pop up in my comments tryna diss me
They don't know my pops is doing 5 over 50
And I ain't hear from him in 3 months shit is shifty
I swear life is iffy
And sometimes I be over it
Feeling like I can't hold it in
Feeling like I can't go again
Hoping y'all ain't gone notice it
Been labeled as a bad girl
Just case I did bad girls
But everything you saw was product of a sad girl
In a mad world but I'm sorry
Everyday ain't no party
I'm not Nicki I'm not Cardi I'm a Dreamdoll but not Barbie
Everyday I get older
Swear to God I just want it to be over
What am I to do when I feel I'm so done
How do I go on when I know I'm on one
Wish I could explain seem like I got no one
Wake up everyday feel like I just want it to be over...
When I got the whole world on my shoulders
I could feel the end getting closer...
Feel like I just want it to be over
If I die would you miss me
Would you drive by and play me loud through the city
Or would you say Dreamdoll was just another pretty
Reality star with some ass and some titties... please
I'm the oldest of 5 tryna keep us alive
Outta Edenwald projects you learn how to survive
And I cry and wanna give it up
Cause they ain't tryna give a feature less I give it up
Thats real as fuck
And if the rawness offend you
I-magine what I been through
Cause it be messing with my mental they don't see my potential
My pictures off of IG
Cause fuck likes it's no love left inside me

What am I to do when I feel I'm so done
How do I go on when I know I'm on one

I could feel the end getting closer...
Feel like I just want it to be over
DreamDoll's song "When It's Over" expresses the singer's struggles with her emotions and the pressures of fame. The lyrics discuss the feelings of being alone and unsupported, and the desire for relief from these burdens. The song is full of the raw emotion that is indicative of DreamDoll's style.
The first verse portrays DreamDoll's feeling of hopelessness and the struggle to continue with the stress of her life. She wakes up every day feeling like her life is over and sees the end getting closer while carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders. DreamDoll contemplates how she can move forward when she feels like she's at her breaking point.
The second verse speaks to the artist's fear of being forgotten by the public and her personal angst. DreamDoll talks about how if she were to die, she wonders if people would miss her or if she would just become another reality star with some curves. She shares her personal trauma, such as her father being in prison for five years or more, and how it affects her mental state. She feels like the world doesn't see her potential, and she's forced to prove herself in a way that takes away from her identity as an artist. DreamDoll ends the song with a feeling of isolation and lack of support, causing her to temporarily withdraw from social media.
