Landon Cube 24kGoldn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She don't got no control
She got a broken soul
And she don't know what it's like
To wake up in the morning light, yeah
She always wanna fight
She don't know how to make it right, nah
And she got style but I know that she crazy
And she do blow like she grew in the eighties
Baby, don't waste my time
I'm fucked up and shit ain't right
And she got style, but I know that she crazy
And she do blow like she grew in the eighties
Baby girl, that's alright
We're fucked up but we'll be fine
Wasted, wasted
Done with the liquor
Wanna taste it, taste it
Down with the dripper
Impatient, patient
Drugs in her system
Shawty can't two step
Tryna fuck with my rhythm
And late nights get longer
Your feelings get stronger
But if it's one thing I know
You're way too fucked, can't take you home
Cocaine crazy, off the rails
Money got long like her pinky nails
She do coco, no Chanel
Fucked up head but she bad as hell
And she got style but I know that she crazy
And she do blow like she grew in the eighties
Baby, don't waste my time
I'm fucked up and shit ain't right
And she got style, but I know that she crazy
And she do blow like she grew in the eighties
Baby girl, that's alright
We're fucked up but we'll be fine
The lyrics to Landon Cube's song "Eighties" featuring 24kGoldn presents a narrative about a girl who is struggling with a broken soul and lacks control over her life. The artist describes her as someone who doesn't understand the feeling of waking up in the morning light, and is constantly fighting without the ability to make things right. Despite her flaws, Landon Cube finds her appealing because she has a unique sense of style, and although she is crazy, she is the type of girl who knows how to have a good time.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the artist's connection with the girl, highlighting that although they are both "fucked up," everything will be alright, and there is no need to worry. The lyrics delve deeper into the complexities of substance abuse and addiction, painting a picture of a girl who has a strong affinity for cocaine (not Chanel) and drugs, and whose problems have escalated to the point of no return. The line, "Money got long like her pinky nails," implies that drugs have led her to venture into dangerous territories that have caused her to lose everything.
In summary, the song's message is a warning about the dangers of drugs and addiction, with an underlying message of hope and empathy for those who struggle.
