Sun Goddess
Hurt Everybody Lyrics

The first verse of "Sun Goddess" by Hurt Everybody starts with the lines "L's up I put on, Hold me down, She ready, Old me down". The singer is indicating that they are preparing to embark on something new, and they are asking someone to support and encourage them. The use of "L's up" suggests that the singer is from the hip-hop community, where people often hold up their index and middle fingers in an "L" shape as a symbol of victory. The reference to being "old me down" implies that the singer has experienced some kind of restriction or oppression in the past. Later in the verse, they describe suffering and poverty with the lines "Suffered light death, Dark money and rifles / Twelve tummies and nice food". The idea of "light death" suggests the singer has gone through some tough experiences, but they have survived them. The reference to "Dark money and rifles" provides a sense of danger and violence, and "Twelve tummies and nice food" suggests that the singer has struggled to provide enough food for themselves and others.

In the chorus, the singer repeats the line "Once I'm on, I'm gone", suggesting that once they have committed to something, they will see it through and leave their past behind. The lines "Suffered light death, Dark money and rifles / Twelve tummies and nice food" are also repeated, emphasizing the significance of what the singer has been through.

The second verse begins by referencing the musician Billy Ocean and how he is "really smoking". The line may refer to Ocean's popularity and success as a musician. The next few lines describe the singer and their companion leaving a safe place ("the fortress") and enjoying themselves ("hit the re-re"). The line "My bitch look like a vine of orchids, we skipped the TV" indicates that the singer is in a good place emotionally and possibly financially. The rest of the verse repeats the lines "I figured everything is better if we think it's magic / I figure everything is better if we just imagine", suggesting that the singer believes in the power of positive thinking.
