R.I.P.
Jesse Gold Lyrics

Speeding
The singer is trying to make it big and reach his goals as fast as possible.

I thought it'd break me through the ceiling
The singer believed that taking risks and going fast would help him succeed.

Defeated
Despite his best efforts, the singer has been unsuccessful.

Kept using codes but couldn't cheat it
The singer kept trying to find shortcuts, but they didn't work.

Can't use my superpowers with all these growing pains
The singer feels held back by his troubles and limitations.

I put in stupid hours, switching lanes, nothing changed
The singer worked tirelessly, but it didn't help him achieve his goals.

I look down at my sweater, rip my heart off the sleeve
The singer is emotional and feels like he's been hurt.

I go and write a letter, send to who I used to be
The singer is reflecting on his past and how he has changed.

Saying, 'Rest in peace'
The singer says goodbye to his old self, his past regrets and failures.

Crazy (crazy)
The singer is feeling overwhelmed and insane.

I would have killed if it'd saved me (saved me, saved me, saved me)
The singer would have done anything to succeed, but he still couldn't make it.

But lately (lately)
The singer's mood has changed and he is now feeling down.

I went from green to purple hazy
The singer's life has changed from positive to negative and confusing.

And they hate me
The singer feels disliked and criticized.

Rest in peace (superpowers, superpowers)
The singer is letting go of his old self and his failed attempts to succeed.

I can't use my (stupid hours, stupid hours)
The singer recognizes that his hard work has become counterproductive and hasn't helped him.
