Drama
Maestro Fresh-Wes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She was on vacation, she was in the sauna
She was a socialite, sure, but she felt a pariah
Mariah Carey played in the background at the cabana
She tried to be cool
She tried to be sexy
She knew she was
There's something wrong with you
I guarantee there's something wrong with all of you
Is there something wrong in your view?
Or is there nothing new to do?
Like a car crash, right on cue
Like fashion, always new
Like aging preys on youth
There's something wrong with you
She died in a mid-tempo drama
She died from a storm inside a pinata
Always in a dream, posts quote Dalai Lama
Nirvana played loud in a full plexi-tank of piranha
She tried to be true
She tried to be heartfelt
I don't think she was
There's something wrong with you
I can guarantee there's something wrong with all of you
Is there something wrong in your view?
Or is there nothing new to do?
Like a car crash, right on cue
Like fashion, always new
Like dark thoughts, Kyle always knew what to do
Friendships gone quiet
The things that time will do
The street at night, lit up by Christmas mood
Like travel, something you always said you'd do
There's something wrong with you
I guarantee there's something wrong with all of you
There's something wrong with you
I can guarantee there's something wrong with all of you
There's something wrong with you
There's something wrong with all of you
The lyrics of Maestro Fresh-Wes's song "Drama" speak to the underlying sense of unease that can exist within interpersonal relationships, even amidst seemingly idyllic or relaxed settings. In one verse, a woman dies unexpectedly while on vacation, described as a "mid-tempo drama." The juxtaposition of her death against the mundane activities of vacation - being in a sauna, listening to Mariah Carey - speaks to the fragility of existence and the potential for unexpected tragedy. Meanwhile, the chorus reiterates the idea that there is "something wrong" with everyone - a reminder that we are all flawed individuals.
The second half of the song continues this theme, describing another person's death in similarly surreal terms: "she died from a storm inside a pinata." This verse also highlights the tension that can exist between one's inner experience and their public persona. The woman is described as being "always in a dream" and posting quotes from the Dalai Lama, yet she ultimately struggles with internal turmoil. The chorus repeats the refrain that there is "something wrong" with all of us, reminding listeners of the universal nature of this struggle.
Overall, "Drama" is a song that speaks to the human condition and the inherent difficulties of navigating complex relationships in an uncertain world. By presenting these themes through imagery and storytelling, the song creates a vivid picture of the emotions and experiences that we all encounter at some point in our lives.
