Little Pills
Kabosh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Or make it better (give me pills let me take it)
Can't change the weather (yeah),
And I'm going back to where I've been,
Hope somebody lets me in,
I need shelter,
From myself, if you can hear me please send help,
It's keeps raining in my mind,
Another storm another day,
These little pills won't change my mind,
Cuz they don't make it go away,
Keeps on raining in my head,
Another storm another day,
These little pills won't change my mind,
Cuz they don't make it go away,
(Keeps on raining)
It's over.
[Verse]
Can only see myself is anybody here,
(I ain't even myself no more)
If you could be myself you'd understand me clear,
(Can't pick myself up off the floor)
And if I died today, it would take my pain away,
Cuz it flooded, (flooded)
And I'm drownin' (drownin')
Boy it's liberating me,
[Hook]
Lets find a way to run away from life,
Full of pain and strife,
Which direction I'm going I can't tell now,
Mister 7/20 nina tell me I'm hell bound,
The IRS is on my ass for the check that I didn't cash and the levey from child support felt like I fell down,
So I'm lookin' for extacy pills tech is the next to be thrilled seconds from method we I'll daily,
My brains cookin' the recipe will beckon the best of me killed sections of stepping I feel crazy,
Hit the club in the night with a lil bit of drug in my life and I'm sure lovin it real hypey I'm delivering,
With my seat out my site, seperated from my wife in the middle of a crisis I'm high shakin' and shiverin',
Rolling balls I'm elated I'm going dumb now drinking liquor I'm faded n havin fun now loaded gun and I'm tripping with everyone around keep me stuck in the sky I never wanna come down
The song "Little Pills" by Kabosh is a reflection of the struggles an individual goes through while dealing with internal turmoil. The opening lines suggest that the singer is trying to break through but cannot and is seeking help in the form of pills to get by. They feel as though they cannot change anything and are only going back to where they have been before. The artist highlights the need for shelter, not from external forces but from oneself.
The hook of the song emphasizes the continuous rain in the singer's mind, with every new day bringing in new troubles. The little pills they consume do not provide relief but instead exacerbate the problem, making it difficult for them to cope with the situation. The singer is looking for a way to escape the everyday pain and strife that life offers, and at the same time feels isolated, as if no one can understand their troubles.
The final verse highlights the desperation of the singer further, as they contemplate death as a means to end their pain. The artist's creative use of metaphors- "And if I died today, it would take my pain away, Cuz it flooded, (flooded) And I'm drownin' (drownin') Boy it's liberating me"- suggests that the singer feels imprisoned by their thoughts and wants to break free from this cycle.

I first heard this song over decade ago and I really had little knowledge about anxiety and pills in general. Unfortunately, I would eventually get prescribed anti anxiety meds to help a rare vestibular disorder and have been on them since 2017. I’ve cut down to .25 mg from 1 mg, and I’ll eventually be off of them completely but they genuinely destroyed my soul for years. Needless to say, this song means even more to me now.
