Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What's the world young nigga
Diamonds and thotty wit a boob job
Cruisin' in that 'Rari with the loose top
ALL EYES ON ME
Like I'm Tupac
No Biggie, we too litty, my goons wit me
True Hippy, Get QPs for $250
DOE
Its swisher island, fuck a mascot
Im Mike goin' for his Last Shot
Ill ride for my niggas
Ill die for my niggas
Ill slide for my niggas All Day
I been gettin high
Twisting finga's to the sky
Takin off to Swisher "I" wit my niggas All Day
Even before
All this fame and people
Screamin my name they know
One thing
They know I was gettin high
They know I been gettin high
They know I be getting high
They know I be gettin high
Oooooo child
Things are gonna get easier
Well how come its not gettin easier
I been smoking a lot
Someone bring the herb, cuz I'm
In need of something different
Brothers stuck in prison
I swear life's saditty, unforgiving
Go for higher learning
When you're colored
Thats just how you're living
Things don't change
When the lane I was given was to
Ride for my niggas
Ill die for my niggas

Stand up and niggas start gettin funny, huh
Pull a stretch and ima flex like its summertime
Use to put the bullshit behind me
Like, I'm front line now
Im Rambo wit the blade when its huntin' time
You could run to church
And get saved every fuckin time
Livin' off a hoe
Better pray that it come a time
Ima ride for my niggas
Ill die for my niggas
Ill slide for my niggas All Day
I been gettin high
Twisting finga's to the sky
Takin off to Swisher "I" wit my niggas All Day

They know I be getting high
They know I be gettin high
WAIT

Cuz they love how I do it my
WAY
Gimme love and ill give it back
Just don't get in my way
Yeah, you see the weed like the women
Aint no telling what I hit in my day
Plus I been lit like Craig since the first muhfuckin Friday
Nigga, Oh yeah
I been burning up the wood
No fireplace
Takin' hoochies from the hood to the hills
Just to set em up to leave em
Broken dreams on the fire escape
I know Deezy D aint shit
but I aspire, Great
I took an L and turned that bitch into a fire eighth
While niggas beafin' over dumb shit
Im half baked with the function




Jumping' like its 1998
Now Everybody Gettin...

Kawari yuku kisetsu ga machinami somete yuku 
Aimaina jikan ga nagarete 
Namida iro no sora wo boku wa mitsumete ita 
Kanashimi no nami ga oshiyoseru 
Yume wa tooku made hakkiri to miete ita no ni 
Taisetsuna mono wo miushinatta 
Ano hi kawashita yakusoku wa kudakete chitta 
Hageshiku hakanai kioku no kakera 
Tatoe futari narande mita yume kara samete mo 
Kono omoi wasure wa shinai zutto 
Iro aseta keshiki wo kaze ga nagarete yuku 
Omoide wa sotto yomigaeru 
Kayoi nareta michi ayumi susundemo modorenai 
Saisho no uso saigo no kotoba 
Tsuyogattebakka gomakasu kanjou ni sugisatta 
Kisetsu kara no kaitou 
So ima sara nani mo dekiyashinaitte 
Wakattetatte mou dame mitai 
Shosen kurikaesu dake no jimonjitou 
Kasane tsudzuketeru genjou nakai yoru hitori shizukesa 
terasu gaitou 
Omoide ga soumatou no youni guru guru nouri wo hashiridasu 
Awai kioku ni nandomo shigami tsukouto suru ga keshieteshimau 
Kanashimi no merry-go-round mayonaka no melody slow dance 
Ano hi kawashita yakusoku wa kudakete chitta

Kono omoi wasure wa shinai zutto 
Tsuioku no hibi ga terasu ima wo

I was gazing up to the tear colored sky

悲しみの 波が押し寄せる

@Poison_Paradise

The changing seasons color the streets
Ambiguous time passes by
I was gazing up to the tear colored sky
I push aside the waves of sadness

My dreams are far away
Even though I could see them quite clearly
I lost sight of the important things

The promise that we made that day was broken and scattered
Pieces of passionate and short lived memories
Even if I wake up from the dream that we both had
I won't forget these feelings, ever

The wind blows through the faded landscape
And my memories softly return

Even if I walk down that familiar road, I can't go back
My first lie, my final words

My pretending to be strong, I misrepresent my feelings
An answer from the passed seasons
So I understand that after all
I can't do anything about it, it seems futile
After all, I just answer my own question every time
These conditions just keep building up 
On this long night, the street lights shine on the stillness 
My memories are kaleidoscopic
My mind starts to race round and round
So many times, I forgot that I try to cling
To fleeting memories

A merry-go-round of sadness
A melody slow dance at midnight

The promise that we made that day was broken and scattered
Pieces of passionate and short lived memories
Even if I wake up from the dream that we both had
I won't forget these feelings, ever
The days of my memories shine down on this moment...



@Poison_Paradise

+Don't want Shadenfraude
people exploding because they can't bare life anymore

unethical cloning experiments treating live human test subjects like mindless rats, injecting them with different chemicals and poisons when they fail

people in fits of rage inside giant mech suits crushing other people into soup like consistencies and their body parts ooze off of the mech

a very sick young girl unconscious in a wheelchair getting the shit beaten out of her because of her religion due to a mixup between terrorism and falsely that religion

people literally becoming vegetable-like due to pure loss of all hope and reason to live, until the very moment before they die

literally tortured young girl forced into insanity and used to kill another girl with the promise{lie} that she'll be better because of it

"it's just a fight to put food on the table on either side"

people getting character development, then brutally dying

people losing limbs, then dying

people going insane, then dying

people getting character development, watching someone they love who also has character development die, going insane, losing limbs, and then dying

horrible horrible ethical realizations and questions

death

death

death

more fucking death

death

little children dying

adults dying

death

children hiding under the massacred remains of their parents, bloody, crying

more fuCKING DEATH


"happier"



@Poison_Paradise

Don't want Shadenfraude​
Eureka and Renton sacrifice themselves to stop existence itself from corrupting due to the limit of questions being breached,
ultimately creating multiple separate timelines

In the main timeline, Renton and Eureka disappear into nothingness, leaving behind only a carving on the moon

a timeline created because of that gives them children,

another timeline makes them friends from childhood{the movie}

Renton and Eureka, the original,
become the void of existence

FLOW - Days (Días) letra en español:
La estación que cambia está tiñendo las calles
El tiempo ambiguo pasa
Estaba contemplando el cielo color de lagrimas
Una ola de tristeza se avecina

Aunque podía ver claramente
mi sueño desde lejos
Perdí de vista las cosas importantes

La promesa que hicimos aquel día se ha roto en
apasionadas pero efímeras piezas de memorias
Aunque despierte de aquel sueño que ambos tuvimos
Nunca olvidaré estos sentimientos

El viento sopla por el paisaje opaco
y mis memorias son gentilmente refrescadas

Aunque siga caminando por este camino familiar, no puedo retractar
mi primera mentira, mis ultimas palabras

Al solo hacerme el fuerte, engaño mis sentimientos
Es la respuesta que obtuve de las estaciones que han pasado
Así que ya no puedo hacer nada por ello
Lo sé, es inútil
Después de todo sigo respondiendo a mis propias preguntas
La situación sigue empeorando
Solo en una larga noche, las luces de la calle brillan en la quietud
Mis memorias son como una linterna rotatoria
dando vueltas y vueltas dentro de mi cabeza
Intenté aferrarme a las débiles memorias pero
desaparecen

Un carrusel de tristeza
Una lenta melodía de baile en medio de la noche

La promesa que hicimos aquel día se ha roto en
apasionadas pero efímeras piezas de memorias
Aunque despierte de aquel sueño que ambos tuvimos
Nunca olvidaré estos sentimientos
Los días de mis recuerdos brillan sobre este momento
