Ice
L.O.U.D. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ice in the cup
Don’t give a fuck
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Ice in the cup
Don’t give a fuck
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Every day I’m running looking right back at the past
My feet breaking down from pressure don’t know if I’ll last
Don’t know if I’m director or an extra in the cast
Look at my decisions feel I’m going nowhere fast
Friends are making moves and starting all of their careers
I’m looking at my work and all I see is all my fears
What if I can’t make it and I never hear those cheers
On the wrong side of the barrel going hunting dressed as deer
Maybe it’s a sign I’m on a path I should stay clear
Like this wasn’t actually the real reason I was here
I smoke a bowl Windex for the the brain to wipe it clear
Lately it’s been harder looking myself in the mirror
Ice in the cup
Don’t give a fuck
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Ice in the cup
Don’t give a fuck
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
I’m losing my grip on this reality now
I haven’t left my bed it beats reality now
Disintegrating time planting seeds without a plow
I wanna run away but I don’t got the know-how
And self made walls are surrounding me now
I tried climbing up em but keep falling back down
Try to be the hero end up dressed as a clown
Got me feeling like I’m Joker with the painted on frown
This isn’t who I am, or who I thought that I would be
But things in life are clearly almost never what they seem
I swear to chase this dream that’s a bond tween you and me
So I’ll make it out this shit and that’s a fucking guarantee
Ice in the cup
Don’t give a fuck
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Ice in the cup
Don’t give a fuck
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch
Fill her up
Got another can
Crack the bitch




Fill her up
Ugh

Feeling like a clown or a joke with a fake smile


This isn’t who I am, or who I thought that I would be
Feeling like I have not fulfilled my potential


But things in life are clearly almost never what they seem
Realizing life is unpredictable and full of surprises


I swear to chase this dream that’s a bond tween you and me
Promising to pursue my dreams and make them a reality


So I’ll make it out this shit and that’s a fucking guarantee
Determined to overcome my problems and make a better life for myself
