Cold World
Eric Reprid Lyrics

My head so messed up but I can't fold to no fear
Despite my chaotic thoughts, I refuse to give in to fear.

Got sights set right up on these bands that I'm gon' use to wipe tears
I am focused on earning money that will comfort me in hard times.

Five years still stickin' to the plans I made when I was a jit
I'm sticking to the goals I set for myself as a child.

Told moms I can't go live no normal life, won't stop 'til I'm rich
I made a promise to my mother that I will not settle for a mediocre life and will strive to become wealthy.

Said where were you when I was down bad
I am questioning the loyalty of those who were not there for me during difficult times.

Now the money comin' to me so fast
I am rapidly earning wealth and success.

Left the hoe, she a big dub straight forward with it, I won't go back
I ended a toxic relationship and will not return to it.

Everybody livin' better, I still remember times we done broke down
While others have improved their lives, I remember the moments of hardship we experienced together.

Plotted on this come up, I gotta get a bag for the fam now but
I have been planning my success and now strive to provide for my family.

I got nobody to lean on, got a cold heart in a cold world
I feel alone and isolated in a harsh, unforgiving world.

Ever since you left I don't know what's next, I ain't found closure
The departure of someone important has left me feeling uncertain and without closure.

I keep a knife in my chest just to cut hoes off, I don't know 'em
I am willing to let go of any toxic people in my life, even if it is painful.

Leavin' a bitch in the past, I gotta go now it's over
I am moving on from a past relationship.

Shit don't add up, baby, I'ma get even
I am going to seek justice for perceived wrongs.

It's a cold world, baby, and I'm just gettin' heated
The harshness of the world has motivated me to become more passionate and driven.

Said I'm the only one I ever really needed
I have learned to rely on myself and do not need others to feel complete.

I gotta find a way outta this fuckin' position
I am determined to escape my current situation.

I stay with the gang and don't stress 'bout no bitches
I prioritize loyalty to my friends over stressing about romantic relationships.

I took all my pain and I put it in records
I have used my pain and struggles as inspiration for my music.

They turn up the speaker, I turn it to riches
My music has brought me wealth and success.

When I'm alone, the past come back to haunt me
I struggle with the memories of my past when I am alone.

So I feel like turnin' that boy to a Casper
I often imagine erasing my past or myself completely.

When I'm off whiskey I feel like myself
Alcohol makes me feel more like my true self or helps me cope with my struggles.

And I'll turn that bitch up 'cause it really don't matter
I will act recklessly or aggressively without caring about the consequences.

I got my mind on my money
I am mainly focused on earning money.

Paranoid they all look at me funny
I feel suspicious of others, thinking they may be judging me.

Stressed out so my liver stay muddy
I cope with stress by drinking excessively, damaging my liver.

Pipe down you won't take nothin' from me
I am fiercely protective of my possessions and do not allow others to take from me.

I don't need nobody to love me
I do not require love from others to feel fulfilled.

I don't ever put nobody above me
I prioritize my own needs and goals over others.

Did the time, you can't say that I'm lucky
I have worked hard and overcome challenges, and my success is not due to luck.

Shit done changed, bitch, stay away from me
My circumstances and priorities have shifted, so I do not want certain people in my life anymore.
