The Future
Liquid Soul & Zyrus 7 (a.k.a. Talla 2XLC) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm tip toeing closer
To the edge of the line
I can't escape
I saw the future and I died
I'm yelling on the phone cause you left me alone
I'm yelling on the phone no I can't change my tone
I can't escape
All the noises in the room
I can't escape
Girl your love had me consumed
I promise I won't miss you again
I promise I won't miss you again
And no we can't be friend
You were the one that I loved
Why the fuck did I think
We would last all this time
Girl I heard it from the vien
You weren't mine anymore
You were gone I was done
It was fun for a while
Asking myself all these mutherfucking questions
Tryna make up my mind
Girl you really had me blind
I wish I could rewind
How the fuck I miss those signs
I'm disappointed in myself
I won't trust you again
And If we're being honest I had prayed that you died
But God had other plans you gotta give it some more time
You thought you had a nigga figured out but you were wrong
Steady blaming me how the fuck are you that dumb
I'm tip toeing closer
To the edge of the line
I can't escape
I saw the future and I died




I'm yelling on the phone cause you left me alone
I'm yelling on the phone no I can't change my tone

Overall Meaning

The chorus continually repeats the phrase "On débite la dope et on flex," which translates to "we sell drugs and we flex," suggesting that the subject of the song has no concern for the future and only cares about the present moment, fueled by their drug-fueled lifestyle. The verses describe a group of friends involved in criminal activities and how they navigate the dangers and consequences of their actions. The lyrics also mention the desire to live a luxurious life like Pablo Escobar and owning a Ferrari, which is a common theme in rap music.


The use of French and Spanish phrases in the lyrics adds an exotic and international aspect to the song, which can appeal to a broader audience. The use of slang and vulgar language throughout the song adds to the overall gritty and unapologetic vibe.
