Jerusalem
I.P.C.C. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I’m in love in 5 days, how long it take you fall?
If my past is prophecy then it don’t matter at all
I know this shit ain’t gon work out and that’s as certain as law
But I would kill for you to give me a call
I'm just feelin' mad confused in whatever I do
And that’s especially the case when it’s coming to you
I know that you want some space
But what I’m saying is true
See I feel like we in a race
And I’ve been destined to lose
And I been the jealous type I feel like every man is making a move
If you don’t wanna see my face then ima tint out the coup
And even when I’m slidin' out about to vibe with the crew
The fact is that you on my mind too
But Lemmy be straight
I need a remedy like I’m Ali
Poetic that she go and break my heart at the Dead Sea
I'm feelin' underwater but floating so drowning simply impossible
So I’m stuck with all my problems that’s at least till I hit the bong
Now I’m only hoping that broken is better off
Because if that shit ain’t the case then I know that it’s my fault
And even though to be honest I’m really feeling pretty lost
I know some good come where pain is the cost
Cuz even though it’s been a short time
Girl I feel
Something for you
And even though it’s been a short time
Girl I feel
Something for you
Why every conversation gotta lead to questions?
Why it feel like ain’t nobody transparent with their intentions?
I'm in the same position, still I ain’t learned my lesson
So I guess I’m dumb or maybe just regressin’
And it’s pressing me
Cuz to be honest, I just thought you were different
And ima speak it how feel because I know you won’t listen
And you ain’t nothing like my last because there ain’t any distance
But Between us, girl you got me trippin'
And to be real you been stuck in my head
Wonder if you ain’t want your mans then why you hop in my bed?
I won’t try to hit your phone cuz everything has been said
And to be honest think you’d leave me on read
Cuz even though it’s been a short time
Girl I feel
Something for you
And even though it’s been a short time
Girl I feel
Something for you
You not a b, but it’s the fact that you stung
That there’s a crack in my heart due to the fact that we done
I guess the only thing to do is take the world as it come
You something like the sunset in Jerusalem
Cuz even though it’s been a short time
Girl I feel
Something for you
And even though it’s a short time




Girl I feel
Something for you

Overall Meaning

The opening lines reflect a sense of urgency and impatience, as the singer wonders how long it will take for the person they are interested in to reciprocate their feelings. The repetition of "Even though it's been a short time, girl I feel something for you" emphasizes the intensity of the singer's emotions, despite their awareness that the relationship is unlikely to work out.

They are frustrated by the lack of transparency and question the other person's intentions.

The final lines of the song offer a bittersweet resolution, as the singer compares their feelings to the fleeting beauty of a sunset in Jerusalem. Despite the heartbreak and uncertainty, they have found something to hold onto in the midst of all the chaos.
