Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To see you just smile
I want you to prosper and come proper
Even if that means I ain't by your side
I'd do anything in my power
To see you just smile
I want you to prosper and come proper
Even if that means I ain't by your side
Devil on my shoulder tellin' me I'll die soon
I don't really want that to impact you
But I don't know, maybe I'm just paranoid
I just want the best for you, I just want what's left of you
Oh, you tell me that you're sad inside
I'm sad that I can't satisfy
Yeah, I pray that I get it right this time
Maybe we'll be alright
Oh, you tell me that you're sad inside
I'm sad that I can't satisfy
Yeah, I pray that I get it right this time
Maybe we'll be alright
I'd do anything in my power
To see you just smile
I want you to prosper and come proper
Even if that means I ain't by your side
I'd do anything in my power
To see you just smile
I want you to prosper and come proper
Even if that means I ain't by your side
Oh yeah
I just wanna see you smile (you smile), don't cry (don't cry)
Even though it means I gotta let you go
Dependent on you, gotta learn to be alone
'Cause I'm so desensitized
When our skin is touching (yeah), I need drugs to love you (yeah)
You want so much more from me, but I can only fuck you (you)
I spent every day right beside you ('side you), 'side you ('side you)
A hundred pics of me on your phone
Now you're someone that I used to know
At this point, we playin' with fire (fire), fire (fire)
You don't wanna see what's in my phone
It's just gonna hurt you more
I'd do anything in my power
To see you just smile (oh yeah)
I want you to prosper and come proper
Even if that means I ain't by your side (oh, oh)
I'd do anything in my power (my power)
To see you just smile
I want you to prosper and come proper
Even if that means I ain't by your side
(Even if that means I ain't by your side)
(Even if that means I ain't by your side)

โdevil on my shoulder tellin me Iโll die soonโ Dude like what the heck, itโs like he knew he was gonna pass
@swaveza9421
If you listen to a lot of his lyrics, not only did he predict he would die soon and die young, he also has said numerous times that percocets would be the drug to do it :( watch his video for black&white, its a literal funeral for himself
@Timoboza
Similar lines are present in many of his songs. He spoke it into existence
@stefondiggsenthusiast5680
It feels fake like he knew it so much that he was gonna pass like I canโt process heโs gone something deep down just telling me heโs alive
