Mac Miller Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
People tend to think all the dranks on me
I don't even have the money to spend
To buy patron for you and all your friends
Baby I be on my grind
Rain sleet snow
Rollin up good every place we go
Cause we tryin to get high get high get high Know the bullshit and all the problems
But we to gone to see
Little bit of this and a little bit of that
We proceed to give them what they need
Just wakin up and gettin stoned
Rub my eyes and check my phone
Open up the fridge to make some waffles
But no more syrup up in my bottle
Damn, but it's okay
I top it off with scrambled eggs
Aye gotta work with watcha got
Aye gotta work with watcha got
[Chorus:]
Suppose to be in class but I ain't go
And let's chill on the couch
See what's on the telly
Where we won't leave house
Can ya stay a while
Can ya stay a while
Cause girl I'm feelin lazy and I'm tryna hang around
Ain't tryna get out of my bed till noon
Neighbors smell the perfume smoke in my room
And I got the door closed can't be sure though
Get the herb rolled
Let's relax
Take your shoes off and kick it back
We escaped the world
Escaped the stress
But I don't give a fuck if the house a mess
Cause we gonna handle that later
We gonna handle that later
Right now let's get that paper and smile for all them haters
Aye cream cheese and a bagel
Have a glass of milk and an ego
I'm rockin pjs and no shirt
I smoke weed eat yogurt
Haha
Enjoy the best things in your life
Cause you ain't gonna get to live it twice
They say you waste time asleep
But I'm just tryna dream
[Chorus:]
Suppose to be in class but I ain't go
And let's chill on the couch
See what's on the telly
Where we won't leave house
Can ya stay a while
Can ya stay a while
Cause girl I'm feelin lazy and I'm tryna hang around
In the first verse of Mac Miller's "Senior Skip Day," he addresses the criticism he receives for being constantly high. The words "I'm just high why they hatin on my" suggest that he is aware of his critics and their opinion of his recreational drug use. However, he counters their judgement by explaining that he doesn't have the means to buy drinks for himself and his friends. Despite this, he rolls up good weed wherever he goes, emphasizing his quest to get high. Through the lyrics "we proceed to give them what they need," he reveals that he and his friends are aware of their wild lifestyle, but they choose to ignore it and continue having fun.
The chorus talks about Miller's desire to stay in bed, watch TV, and relax instead of going to class. He mentions smoking weed in his room, which can be smelled by his neighbors, and the fact that he's lost the syrup for his waffles. However, he remains content with scrambled eggs and a bagel. The line "let's get that paper and smile for all them haters" encourages the idea of enjoying life and ignoring any negativity in it. In the second verse, Miller continues to describe his lazy day routine. He mentions smoking weed from Amsterdam, spending euros on it, and kicking back with no stress. The lyrics "cause we gonna handle that later, we gonna handle that later" reinforce the idea of living in the moment and not worrying about the consequences until later. The song ends with Miller's catchy refrain, encouraging listeners to enjoy the best things in life and dream, because life is short.

@@cartersbread1432 Hello SORRY THAT THIS WAS LONG SPEECH. Okay? Well hey there...
During high school my parents had concerns with my tardies. I was a strict AB honor roll student, but when I left essay outlines or packets/ folders at home, which happened a lot my Sophomore year, went home and went back to school to turn in homework. Being "a school walker" ended up making me jog a ton: tried out for Soccer and Track in 10th grade but that's another story.
So there's this time in December 2019 in English for 5th period my teacher was explaining Senior Skip Day and how that got turned into a school field trip for Seniors that year. Well, that same day I ran home to grab papers for a 14-references Bibliography to my World History Essay I took weeks developing. All grades was due the very next week. Well some security guards caught me running off but they were some distance away and in a orange "mini-Tractor". I ran straight out the school ,saw them, ran across some blocks outside the school, came back to school then ran across the school outskirts, and made it at home without the Tractor. Lucky. While there I looked up Senior Skip Day: that's the first day I learned of Mac Miller Skip Day and "Project K.I.D.S.". Oh, and yeah I played this song like once during morning Detention in 12th grade. But this was my fun memories. EXTRA CONTENT ---> ---->
**For reference: Imagine an ignorant world without flash drives and without sending attachments through e-mail back to yourself, that was me during 2019-20 year.
* Quite literally wrote my Microsoft Word essay main points on a sheet of paper, went to school to class, and "guess-estimated" what my content was supposed to mean when I re-created talking points in my School District Microsoft Word Docs for World History. But I learned better way in 12th grade (2021) when I took a really difficult Calculus BC class which even made me create an Orange spiral full of sheets called "Anti-Wifi Chronicles and Phone Photo-Gallery Notes". 12th grade was my funniest high school year since I was proactively using tech-notes to cram HW at school or finally perform tutoring with Math, Chemistry, and Computer Science classes.
And hi @ramsessevenone416 thanks for your famous comment LOL.
