Wings
Mac Miller Lyrics

Yeah
An interjection used to express agreement, affirmation, or excitement.

Well
An interjection used to indicate that what follows will follow from what has just been said; anyway.

I got a bone to pick like roses (roses)
I have an issue or concern to address that is prickly, like a rose with thorns.

I ain't feelin' broken no more
I am no longer feeling shattered or without hope.

Balled a fist, they gossipin', I notice
I tighten my hand into a fist as I overheard others spreading rumors about me.

Talkin' shit, I wander through the motives
As people continue to speak negatively, I consider their underlying intentions.

Wonder who the fuck I'm supposed to be
I question my identity and purpose.

I ain't worried now 'til I leave
I am not bothered by others' opinions until I am away from them.

I'm just tryna ride and feel the breeze
I want to enjoy life and experience freedom.

With somethin' bad beside next to me
Accompanying me is someone who is not necessarily good or wholesome.

Wind in my face
I am moving towards my future, feeling rejuvenated.

Don't stop now when it feels so great
If something feels good, it is advised to keep moving forward.

You can run 'til you slip on the sidewalk
You can expend energy and try as hard as you can until eventually you will slip up or fail.

And the same bone you pick gon' break
Continuing to obsess over the same problem will eventually lead to its destruction.

That's a motif (that's a motif)
This is a recurring element or theme that is present throughout my experience.

Yeah, when it's comin' right back
Yes, when it is returning again.

So familiar, never been realer
This is a well-known theme, but has never felt more true or genuine than it does now.

Never felt so damn good where I'm at
I have never felt so positive or optimistic about my current situation.

I don't know what it's all about
I am uncertain of the true meaning or purpose of life.

Runnin' through the many thoughts to count (that's way better)
I am trying to sort through a plethora of thoughts, but this effort is an improvement from feeling numb or stagnant.

Still ain't addin' up, I'll let you know that I've had enough, yeah
I am still unable to make sense of everything and want to express my frustration.

I'd put some money on forever, but I (hey)
I would invest in a loving, long-term relationship, but...

Don't like to gamble on the weather, so I just watch while
I prefer not to risk on something unpredictable, so I opt to observe it from afar.

The sun is shinin', I can look at the horizon
Despite any troubles or unknowns, there is still a positive outlook to appreciate.

The walls keep gettin' wider, I just hope I never find 'em, I know
It seems as though obstacles keep appearing, but I pray they never become too constricting or impossible to overcome.

Movin' so fast, the clock look slow (slow)
I am making progress so quickly that time feels like it is passing slowly.

Water my seeds 'til the flower just grow, yeah
I am nurturing and cultivating potential growth, knowing that it will come to bloom eventually.

Love so much that my heart get broke
I put my heart and soul into my affection, which can lead to heartbreak.

I don't really know how the normal shit go, so
I am unfamiliar with traditional or typical behaviors and expectations.

I guess I just play it by ear, silence is all that I hear
I am taking life as it comes, listening to the lack of noise around me for guidance.

Listenin' close as I can
I am doing my best to pay attention closely.

Growin' up (one, two, three) jump
Maturing involves taking leaps of faith and making bold moves.

Nobody holdin' my hand, no
I do not have anyone to guide or support me through these new experiences.

Trust is a problem, never knew how, yeah
I struggle with trusting others due to a lack of example or experience in doing so.

That's why I just keep to myself
To avoid the risk of betrayal or disappointment, I would rather remain introverted and independent.

Get what I need, then I'll be out (please tell me)
Once I have all that I require, I will leave the situation, hoping for confirmation or approval from those involved.

Who can surf the universe with me?
Who is willing to ride the waves of life with me?

Lucifer is human, so are we
The concept of evil or temptation is something that is built into human nature, and can affect anyone.

All I ever want is what I need
I am not interested in acquiring things that are unnecessary or purely cosmetic.

And that don't include your time and company
I do not require or desire investment from others solely for the purpose of company.

Follow me, we on the up and up
Come follow my lead, as things are getting better and better.

Remember when I owed a hundred bucks
Reflecting on a past memory of owing a great deal of money.

Now, I look around like, "What the fuck?"
I am amazed and in disbelief at the change and improvement in my life.

If you don't fuck with me, you fuckin' up
If you choose not to associate or support me, you are making a mistake.

I know I need to watch my temper, so I
I am aware that I must be mindful and cautious in controlling my anger.

Don't ever gamble on the weather but I just watch while the
I do not like taking risks with unpredictable outcomes, but I keep a close watch regardless.

The sun is shinin', I can look at the horizon
Despite any troubles or unknowns, there is still a positive outlook to appreciate.

The walls keep gettin' wider, I just hope I never find 'em, no, no
It seems as though obstacles keep appearing, but I pray they never become too constricting or impossible to overcome.

These are my wings
These are the attributes or qualities that make me capable and free.
