Twisted
Macs Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Chop me up another line
Fast, I could never be high class
You can tell when I go out to dinner and get
A hundred dollar merlot and guzzle
On my wine glass
Got a lot of demons that are
Jumping out of my path, like hey there
You don't go to hell

Man you're born in hell
And if your sick in your
Heart you fuckin' stay there
Two cubes of ice and glenlivet in my glass
I'm in love with the game
I ain't just in it for the cash
Even though i'm gonna die in
The future I gotta stop
Living in the past or my enemies will pass me
Devil all in my nostril
Angel all on my shoulder
Taking drugs it feels fake as fuck I
Guess wake me up when it's over
Yo my baby mama threw me
Out the car last week
Tonight we met up at the bar for
A drink just to work things
Out Within minutes we were fucking in
My car back seat wooo!
I took a shot to the head
In front of my bitch
Like John to the Kennedy F
I stay calm through the misery yes
I'm in the court room gone
With the Hennessy breath
Like fuck you, your honor
I'm made of flesh I'm made of
Blood i'm made of water
And some alcoholism you know I
Got it from my mother
I just hate everybody you know I
Got it from my father i'm just smoking on a
Bowl of medicinal marijuana
Time and time again I sit around and
Patiently just waiting for the weekend
Just thinkin'
It's almost 5 PM, I better start drinking
(Ok)

It makes no difference, makes no difference
Fuck it I'm getting twisted
Makes no difference, makes no difference
Fuck it I'm getting twisted
Makes no difference, makes no difference
Fuck it I'm getting twisted
I should probably die alone cause
I'm impossible to live with

Yea my name is David
But the people that know me in real
Life know not to call me that
They just call me Mac and they
Know that nine times out
Of ten if they call I will call them back
No stories no excuses
No pretending that my phones dead
I don't give a fuck about your problems
I'm just living in my own head
I don't want to over-complicate shit
Use a knife when I give that face-lift
Did you buy that Louis bag for
Your bitch cause you want
To act rich or cause you want to act basic?
Still making rap beats in the basement
Red and blue pills in that matrix
If you ever feel like
Life is confusing remember
DMT will make the entire universe make sense
The night I impregnated my wife with my son
I ate a bunch of pot edibles
Now he's 3 years old and now his IQ is high
As fuck and every picture that
He paints is incredible
It ain't no mystery it's true
You take your imagination to a place
That it never been to
And the foreign ass world and it
Turns a little bit new, a little bit new
I am a believer in the universe of sorrow
I just wish that I can
Move away to Jupiter tomorrow
Just to get the fuck away from
All the people on the planet
Man my thinkin is romantic and
Is deeper than Atlantis
Time and time again I sit around and
Patiently just waiting for the weekend
Just thinkin'
It's almost 5 PM, I better start drinking
(Ok)

It makes no difference, makes no difference
Fuck it I'm getting twisted
Makes no difference, makes no difference
Fuck it I'm getting twisted
Makes no difference, makes no difference
Fuck it I'm getting twisted

I should probably die alone cause
I'm impossible to live with

The line "You don't go to hell / Man you're born in hell" suggests a belief that some individuals are destined to live in a state of suffering or turmoil.

The line "Tonight we met up at the bar for / A drink just to work things out" portrays a situation where the couple tries to reconcile their differences but ultimately end up engaging in impulsive and reckless behavior, symbolized by the sexual encounter in the car. This highlights the volatile nature of their relationship and the difficulty in finding resolution or stability.

The chorus, "It makes no difference, makes no difference / Fuck it I'm getting twisted / I should probably die alone cause I'm impossible to live with", speaks to a sense of resignation and self-deprecation.
