Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Too humble so you won't complain
Always tell them it's gon be okay
Still you always tryna find a way to
Be there for the ones you love
Shit feel off nigga don't even budge
Yea
Do you know how it feel
Then you end up going different ways
Used to know them now they seem estranged
And you looking for a reason it came to
This what a price to pay
Shit will never be the same
Yea
Do you know how it feel oh yea
Now Tell me what would you do for love
Anything for the ppl that I love
Give my all for the ppl that I love
A nigga wouldn't be without the ppl I love
Washing clothes in the sink when machine broke down
Many times
Really coulda loss all hope
The water off
Hit the vacant next door
Nah we wasn't poor didn't live like the rich
Welfare assist taking all we could get
Living in condition thinking life was a bitch
Stuck it out together didn't phase us for shit
House use to be lit
They ain't wanna go home so we took them all in
Not a group home but jy close it would get
Brothers in the streets looked out for their kids
School notes for them legal guardian shit
Lotta friends who ain't have no siblings
Used to call them dirty now they cleaned up
Every time in the mall they came off
Using discount five fingers
Dry humping Sis friends hide n seeking
Lul yungin had the stroke of a genius
Couple homies got close wit my exes
Guess they didn't really respect me
When nobody don't know your pain
Too humble so you won't complain
Always tell them it's gon be Okay
Still you always tryna find a way to
Be there for the ones you love
Shit feel off nigga don't even budge
Yea
Do you know how it feel
When somebody you was close to change
Then you end up going different ways
Used to know them now they seem estranged
And you looking for a reason it came to
This what a price to pay
Shit will never be the same
Yea
Do you know how it feel oh yea
Yu Took advantage of me
Took my kindness for granted
They don't make them like me no more
How I was you could never understand it
As I got a lul older
Yungin stood up for self
Lotta situations tried to Blitz
So a nigga had to lower his shoulder
Soldier
Knew the deal it was kosher
It's all love til the day you gotta approach them
Coach them
Envision how it coulda went down
But your resilience wouldn't let you erode them
And shawty use to be my forever
Til I saw another side of her
Everything you told me it was true
Then you found a wave you could ride better
Switched up on a nigga
You see This shit been on my mind
Started peeping the signs
You Shoulda kept it real wit me
Tried to keep me in the blind
But wen you was stuck in bind
Good support I supplied it
But it was getting one-sided
Maybe it was something that I did
Prolly didn't even notice
Feel like you would've told me
That's why I move by my lonesome
What did I do to deserve this
Guess it is what it is
Betrayal a muhfukka
And Karma is a bitch
When nobody don't know your pain
Too humble so you won't complain
Always tell them it's gon be okay
Still you always tryna find a way to
Be there for the ones you love
Shit feel off nigga don't even budge
Yea
Do you know how it feel
When somebody you was close to change
Then you end up going different ways
Used to know them now they seem estranged
And you looking for a reason it came to
This what a price to pay
Shit will never be the same
Yea
Do you know how it feel oh yea
In "Feel. Care. Live.," G3RSt articulates the profound experiences of emotional struggle and loss that often accompany close relationships. The opening lines paint a vivid picture of solitude in suffering, where the singer grapples with pain that remains unseen by others. This sentiment highlights a universal truth: people often endure their battles quietly, prioritizing the comfort of their loved ones over voicing their struggles. The singer also embodies a sense of humility, choosing to remain steadfast during turbulent times and reassuring others that everything will be alright. Yet, beneath this surface selflessness lies an internal quest for connection and understanding, reflecting the complexities of human emotions where one wishes to support others while also needing acknowledgment of their suffering.
As the lyrics progress, the theme of relational change emerges, particularly the emotional toll of witnessing a close bond transform into estrangement. The singer's reflection on what it feels like when someone once integral to their life begins to drift away encapsulates the deep sense of loss that accompanies such changes. Once-familiar faces become strangers, and the search for clarity regarding the rift becomes a painful endeavor. The line “this what a price to pay” underscores the idea that relationships, especially those that once offered comfort and security, evolve or dissolve, leaving in their wake a sense of longing for what once was and an understanding that some connections, no matter how cherished, might be destined to fade.
In a poignant exploration of love and sacrifice, G3RSt emphasizes the lengths to which one is willing to go for their loved ones. He narrates experiences marked by resilience—washing clothes in a sink, relying on welfare, and maintaining a sense of community despite difficult living conditions. These moments illustrate a dedication to family and friends amidst financial hardships, reinforcing the idea that love and support can transcend material challenges. The references to bringing in friends who have nowhere to go further exemplify the singer's unwavering commitment while revealing the close-knit bonds that often develop in adversity. This section serves as a testament to love, showcasing how shared struggles can forge deep connections and foster a sense of belonging.
The lyrics take a more introspective turn, as the singer confronts feelings of betrayal and the heavy burden of unreciprocated support. The pain of realizing that someone once considered a lifelong partner has changed against their will reflects the reality of relationships and the emotional scars left by unfaithfulness. The artist's realization that kindness can be manipulated elicits a raw acknowledgment of the hurt in being taken for granted. As the narrative unfolds, feelings of confusion arise regarding whether the singer’s efforts were sufficient or if the change in dynamics was unavoidable. The repetition of the question, “Do you know how it feel,” resonates as an invitation for empathy, emphasizing a longing for validation and support in navigating these tumultuous emotional landscapes. Ultimately, G3RSt composes a reflective piece that captures the intricacies of love, loss, and the quest for mutual understanding, illustrating the complicated tapestry of relationships that define our lives.
