Thoughts
Kyo-N Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

So, how do you feel right now ?
Today the sun rose, and the sun will set soon
What people mean to me, something I hope I get soon
In the meantime I need more Nekketsu
Some more evidence why I do music for the meaning
Inspiration for hope as I’m breaking my glass ceiling
Cuz’ I’ve only hit 19% of my self-healing
Okay

Okay
This a letter to my better self than when I was 17
With a shyness deeper and a self-love never guaranteed
Add to that the negative narrative of an errant teen
And I reckon I’m prolly less straightforward than my parents deemed
Self-confidence a work in progress; that’s cool though
I feel my winds of change; they hit me like a cool blow
If you want some of them I’ll take you to school with this cool flow
And if I say them long enough I’ll take these words as truthful
I feel like winning again, like I’m getting back that edge
So tell them other rappers to be on their best day
Yeah
I got a stake in my pen, it’s headed straight for your head
So with that being said, lemme segue
Today the sun rose, and the sun will set soon
What people mean to me, something I hope I get soon
In the meantime I need more Nekketsu
I got 19 thoughts and a beer
And I’m drunk off some, it’s pretty clear
You can catch me on that power trip Kanye, no can fetter me
Life’s just a battle with my self-doubt, towards a better me
I reckon that my inner me is my only enemy
I recognize that my sole enemy is my lack of anomie
It’s into me, it’s intimate
Listen to me, I scream too much
Inside of me
Labour of feeling for reward of consistent happiness as a salary
Today the sun rose, and it prolly set soon (Hmmmmm)
What birthdays mean to me, something I think I’ll get soon (Hmmmmm)
Not sure anymore that I need Nekketsu
So, how do you feel right now ?
Umm, so right now, I would say that like
I don’t know it’s almost like there’s two parts of me
Like, there’s this me that’s like, really confident and assertive

Who can, do whatever he wants and like
Just feels really happy with the life he has and like the friends he has and, everything
