Delusion
K-D Lab Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lookin good, got my fit on and a blue bandana
It's a mood, nothing in the world like getting
Off the mountain boarding and you look at a girl
And her friend, laughin, blushin lookin back
Leave off in their car, but then they come back
Asking for her number, so she yell it out
Remembering those digits when i turned around
Most of yall equate that shit to luck
But that not true lemme sum up
It's about the good ways you be living your life
Exploring so much more you might think you would like
New thoughts going through the radius of my cranium
I'll fill up stadiums with my crazy and wild thoughts
So many different ways to tie up knots and solve your problems
If you can choose to use your delusions as imaginations to solve the madness in our nation
Then i'll leave ya to it
But if you don't do it
I'll lead by example to assemble what might resemble some kind of rebellion and i'll let hell in
Flipping the verse i am the worst
At explaining what my brain is sayin
To my lips and my mouth, my lungs and heart
When i get on the couch, my mind gets so far
Off railed, its failed me, not providing money for my family
Im working so hard to be happy that its trapped me in
Split cut unclear decision
For the win, i have a choice
I could go with my voice to balance my poise
Or quit with the noise and drink with the boys
Quick viable options but taking the long way to solve them
Is not to wait
Because if i wait then i'll be late
If you can choose to use your delusions as imaginations to solve the madness in our nation
Then i'll leave ya to it
But if you don't do it
Then i'll do it myself, helping people to help
And creating great groups of people that be looking for change
So i get involve and i help with the pain
Yo so a day after i check with up with this girl when im bored
Ask her if she wanted to ski with me, when i board
She says please so we meet at the base of the ski lift
Ain't no one else i wanna be with
Hands in my gloves because she is freezing
Give her one last kiss soon im leaving
She in my thoughts a lot in the evening
I can hear her breathing
If you can choose to use your delusions as imaginations to solve the madness in our nation
Then i'll leave ya to it
But if you don't do it
I use my ability and love unwillingly and give my heart to a girl in a parking lot
Because i'm caught and she was so hot
Its happiness
K-D Lab's song "Delusion" delves into themes of self-discovery, youthful exuberance, and the complexities of love and ambition within a modern societal context. The opening lines paint a scene charged with excitement, highlighting an ordinary yet captivating moment where the singer feels confident and stylish, adorned with a blue bandana. The imagery of "mountain boarding" encapsulates a sense of freedom and exhilaration as the singer observes a girl and her friend. This interaction serves as a catalyst for feelings of attraction and possibility. The subsequent appearance of the girl returning to ask for her number conveys a sense of fate or serendipity, and it challenges listeners to consider whether these experiences are purely based on luck or shaped by the way we live our lives actively and positively. The idea that approaching life with a joyful and adventurous mindset can yield rewarding experiences is a central message of the lyric, encouraging listeners to explore their surroundings and expand their perspectives.
The narrative progresses as the singer reflects on the balance between internal thoughts and external actions. K-D Lab posits new ideas circulating in his mind as a powerful force with the potential to "fill up stadiums," emphasizing the magnitude of his creativity and how it can address life's challenges. The metaphor of "tying up knots" illustrates the complexities of problem-solving, suggesting that one can find various angles from which to approach difficulties. This perspective encourages listeners to trust their intuition and imagination as tools to not only understand their own lives but also contribute meaningfully to larger societal issues. The refrain of using "delusions as imaginations" reinforces the idea that while one might face chaos and madness in the world, the creative power of thought can lead to resolution and change, showcasing the importance of personal agency in actively engaging with and reshaping one's reality.
As the song unfolds, the fractured relationship between ambition and personal happiness becomes evident. The singer candidly admits to struggling with communication between his thoughts and actions, creating a sense of vulnerability. The expression "my mind gets so far off railed" suggests feelings of being overwhelmed, possibly by expectations or responsibilities, leading to a sense of dissatisfaction despite hard work. This introspection highlights the universal human experience of striving for success while grappling with mental health and personal desires. The internal conflict is intensified by the need to choose between momentary pleasures, like "drinking with the boys," and the deeper pursuit of joy through creativity and purpose. This duality illustrates the complex nature of decision-making in a young adult's life, suggesting that avoiding procrastination and embracing one’s authenticity is essential in navigating toward fulfillment and happiness.
In the latter part of the song, romance takes center stage, with the narrative shifting to an evocative memory of a day spent with a girl at the ski lift. The warmth of the emotions transcends the narrative as the singer recalls the tender moments shared, intertwining feelings of love and adventure. The essence of this experience contrasts the earlier struggles, as it highlights the beauty in genuine connections and the simple joys in life. The way the singer describes their interaction—her request to ski together and their brief exchanges—evokes a sense of nostalgia and yearning. The final lines encapsulate the theme of happiness, reinforcing the notion that love and meaningful moments can serve as antidotes to life's challenges. Ultimately, K-D Lab navigates a rich landscape of emotions and experiences in "Delusion," capturing the blend of youthful desires, personal reflections, and the profound impact of love against the backdrop of a chaotic world.

Так люблю эти "посторонние" звуки в треке, вроде марша или гудка паровоза, это даёт прочувствовать всю абстрактность и сюрреализм психосферы, её миров да и игровой вселенной в целом

Добро пожаловать в индастриал, где частенько используют звуковые сэмплы для придания особой атмосферы.
