No Stress
Feeki Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Way back when we had the time
Parents talked but we never listened
Knew it all we were masterminds
Every class tryna stay awake
Afternoons when we rode the bus
Finding out that your friend is fake
Back with the crew they were holding me down
Get on the bikes and we riding around
There was a pack of us tearing it up
We pulling up all over town, Yeah...
Shoveling jumps, we sending it high
Finally Friday, spending the night
Eleven pm and we all sneaking out
Everybody get down, it's better to hide
Young rebels, we taking a stand
Good idea, we should play in a band
Make some music, express yourself
Before it was all about chasing the bands
In "No Stress" by Feeki, the artist takes us on a nostalgic journey through his younger years, reminiscing about good times spent with friends. The lyrics speak to a simpler time when his biggest concerns were schoolwork and navigating social circles. He talks about how back then, he felt like he knew everything and was a "mastermind," a common feeling among adolescents. The song's title, "No Stress," speaks to this carefree time in his life.
Feeki describes moments when he felt the most free and happy with his friends. He mentions riding bikes around town, sneaking out late at night, and riding around, causing trouble. These are all classic experiences that most teenagers go through, and Feeki's way of painting them through the song creates a sense of familiarity that many listeners can relate to.
The latter half of the song sees Feeki and his friends dreaming of starting a band, a common aspiration for many young people. He encourages his friends to express themselves through their music, before outside pressures and the realities of adulthood take over. The song does an excellent job of tapping into universal themes of youth, making it resonate deeply with listeners.

As of late I been reminiscin
I have been thinking about the past recently
Way back when we had the time
Time used to seem plentiful
Parents talked but we never listened
We were disobedient to our parents
Knew it all we were masterminds
We felt knowledgeable and intelligent
Every class tryna stay awake
We made an effort to pay attention in class
Afternoons when we rode the bus
We spent our afternoons on the bus
Finding out that your friend is fake
Realizing that a friend is not genuine
And the day that you had enough Yuh...
The day you were fed up with a certain situation
Back with the crew they were holding me down
My friends were supporting me
Get on the bikes and we riding around
We rode bikes together
There was a pack of us tearing it up
A group of us were causing commotion
We pulling up all over town, Yeah...
We were visiting different locations
Shoveling jumps, we sending it high
We were jumping ramps and going high in the air
Finally Friday, spending the night
We spent Friday nights together
Eleven pm and we all sneaking out
We snuck out late at night
Everybody get down, it's better to hide
We needed to hide in order to avoid getting caught
Young rebels, we taking a stand
We were young and rebellious
Good idea, we should play in a band
We thought forming a band was a good idea
Make some music, express yourself
Creating music was a way to express ourselves
Before it was all about chasing the bands
Before, our focus was entirely on trying to become famous musicians

Before it was all about chasing the bands
Way Back we were chasin the girls
Back when we all had Faith in the world
Middle school, they try to keep us straight
While Knowing that most would be taking a whirl
Learn shit that we never should of
Gonna find out, it was only time
Learn to fail when we said we could've
Taking risks, we Rollin dice
Thinking back I'm envious of the days I wouldn't listen
Kinda wish I had a mission, Right about now I'm really missing
[Hook]
All the days, that were care free
All the moments we used to have
No one knew what their plans be
But somehow knew we could use a laugh
Life came like a stampede
All of us goin through a test
So far back we can't see
Cause they gone, but I guess I miss no stress
Godamn I miss no stress
X4
[Verse 2]
High school with the same story
Thick head kid that would hate to lose
Not good at shit, all the games bore me
But never cared about making moves
Getting jobs we all need a check
Fifteen tryna get a brand new bike
No one told me I could be with the best
And as for the squad, we thinking alike
Fuck everything we just wanna go ride
Butting the heads and you know we collide
Hit up the pool and we all on the slide
They kicking us out while we laugh till we cry ha!
Acting dum like that
Next week weee gonna come right back
You know what I mean man the summer time free
Not a care in the world till the fun go flat... Yuh
We just fucking around
Friends come and go man they up and they down
Some of them, are never coming back
Either by choice, or they stuck in the ground
Not the case, for the rest of us
Keep it pinned while you count your blessings
Every loss that we take is ruff
And the times are tough, all throughout recession
That didn't matter to me tho
Never cared about getting paid
Long as I could go get to race
And not worry bout life, to forget the strain
Your hindsight 20/20 work with a different stare
Way back, no limits there
Afterall of that, I still didn't care through
[Hook]
All the days, that were care free
All the moments we used to have
No one knew what their plans be
But somehow knew we could use a laugh
Life came like a stampede
All of us goin through a test
So far back we can't see
Cause they gone, but I guess I miss no stress
Godamn I miss no stress

[Verse 3]
Spending hours gazing back
Here and now I lay these tracks
My power for gaining racks
And how to scour eighty plaques
No time to be chillin
Theres dope rhymes to be killing
But god damn, I wish I could go back
Sometimes to the life I was living
And that's no stress, no bills
Back 'fore I had those flow skills
Had to move up my growth real
Now I travel the world how the globe feel yeah
.But I wouldn't trade that for shit I got me in return
Even times I'm getting burned
25 years of live and learn.
