Bliss
I.B.E Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

They competing for your attention
Don't realize you in detention
With every like post and mention
It's not like you can pretend it's
Any different, they clouding vision
Hoping we post every family mission
So that when we finally missing
They can sit and read descriptions

I just need you to sit and listen
I been looking at the scriptures
We get lost behind the pictures
Likes and shares add to the mixture
We're all sipping the elixir
She don't want you to fix her
She just wants you to tip her
This isn't a post on mixer
On Facebook or the twitter
She wants only fans and glitter
While I'm stuck on the shitter
Just swiping till I get sicker
Post so much I get a sticker
Absorbed by a mystical figure
My drinks get a little stiffer
It's a twenty four bar ripper
Fuck man I'm headed to the river
Someone tell me how it got like this
How it got like this
Now the screen it's got my bliss
It's got my bliss
It's okay online But the phone hide my fist
Get the gold to line my wrist
So now it shine like shit
Look do I die in time to be the greatest
Every sentence bout you elated
They scream you were their favorite
But every happy birthday belated
Or do I live so long I'm no longer famous
Everyone tell me my style tainted
Know your picture already painted
So now they paint you as the lamest
This shits just a game ain't it?
We watch people blow up
And then they live or die
This the truth they don't supply
Everyone wanna be famous
But ain't nobody asking why
This jealousy get you killed
Especially if you real
Got sixteen bars in my will
Can't fix scars that never heal
Where they fix cars on the hill
I worked it hard to pay the bills

Fuck I been afraid of pills
Seeing people die chasing a thrill

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of I.B.E's song "Bliss" may come across as dark and disturbing at first glance. However, a closer look reveals a deeper meaning. The song can be interpreted as a metaphor for addiction, specifically to drugs or alcohol. The singer is describing their desire to indulge in their addiction, even if it means harming themselves or others.

The lines "Drink from your veins of death" and "Wipe the blood from your hips" suggest that the singer is willing to go to extreme lengths to satisfy their addiction. The repeated chorus of "I want you to die, I want you to cry" could be seen as the singer's inner battle between wanting to continue using and wanting to stop.
