Flying
E.S.S. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No one gives a fuck about you, right until you end up dead
Talk about the fist between your legs
It's what the therapist would say to me when I was younger filled with rage
Talk about my fucking hollowed heart
It's the aftermath of all this pain, I should've said this from the start
Tell me what this life could've brought
Besides dead people, scars, loneliness, I'll name em all
Year seven my mom was murdered stabbed fourty times
The person that did it was dear old stepdad, he slit his throat, do I
How the fuck am I supposed to act
Like I give a fuck or should, like ever, scratch that
I can only fucking care so much
So if you're sensitive you're fucked
That sucks cuz so am I
Talk about demons in your head
No one gives a fuck about you, right until you end up dead
Talk about the fist between your legs
It's what the therapist would say to me when I was younger filled with rage
Talk about my fucking hollowed heart
It's the aftermath of all this pain, I should've said this from the start
Tell me what this life could've brought
Besides dead people, scars, loneliness, I'll name em all

This song is deeper than most ppl think. If you really listen to it & understand the concept you can tell he thoroughly studies theology. He left earth on this song almost in a literal sense. Sounds like something you could read in a book or see in a movie. Dude writing is on another level! 🔥🔥🔥

Can you tell me about “Prince Salahudin”. This song is absolutely beautiful; it reminds me of Edgar Allen Poe grieving for his dead Wife, or Paradise Lost. I love it truly and am so glad it got number one album.

Crazy how nobody realizes how he’s talking about how he’s legitimately a fallen angel from the Bible… him flying again is being let back into heaven after God kicked him out” I’m not human but I’m human-like”

I came here after reading a comment explaining it just to see all these people saying praise God and not noticing it just to congratulate him.
