Mavi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(We've had some good times and some hard times too)
On the back of a napkin I cleaned myself up
And I drew you a map so you could see where I was
Leaving trails for if I die or if I'm dreaming this up
She knows she can get a Chanel whenever my streaming hit
My prayers now laying in hopes that we could reconnect
And my life'll be even keeled enough to be your man, damn
'Cause you might die if you get too high
And you might die if you don't even try
So what's the difference?
Know you don't wanna lose because we bruised
But we still tulips but they stupid enough
To think it's 'cause of what I give you
They don't see all your riches for that, they all forgiven (forgiven)
I hold you tighter than a secret me and God had written
Pocket privilege
Still feel like a fuck up away from rich or broke again
But money coming back quicker the easier I let go of it
World growing colder like a cell unfold with every shoulder tilts
Wanted to yell now these days don't want no one to know here
Maybe we just depressed because the trees depressed
And the sea's depressed, the only thing we see is death
And so the weed the best, the only hope reprieve from that
They plead I keep in touch, I'm scrambling to keep intact
I'm a track runner, it's where I hide my secrets at
Fear that last slumber, first time my people see some rest
But ever since you been away
Nigga just been binging
Finish spirits feeling vacant
And then defenestrate it
And then just waiting 'til I see you again
It's getting empty searching the living when needing a friend
I miss you
Nigga just been binging
Finish spirits feeling vacant
And then defenestrate it
And then just waiting 'til I see you again
It's getting empty searching the living when needing a friend
Every since you been away
Nigga just been binging
Finish spirits feeling vacant
And then defenestrate it
And then just waiting 'til I see you again
It's getting empty searching the living when needing a friend
Every since you been away
Nigga just been binging
Finish spirits feeling vacant
And then defenestrate it
And then just waiting 'til I see you again
It's getting empty searching the living when needing a friend
(Every since you been away)
(Nigga just been binging)
(Finish spirits feeeling vacant)
(And then defenestrate it)
(And then just waiting 'til I see you again)
(It's getting empty searching the living when needing a friend)

Line by Line Meaning
On the back of a napkin I cleaned myself up
I tried to fix myself up to be better for you
And I drew you a map so you could see where I was
I wanted you to know where I was in life
Leaving trails for if I die or if I'm dreaming this up
I wanted to leave a path for you to follow if something happened to me
She knows she can get a Chanel whenever my streaming hit
She knows she can have anything when I'm successful
Guilty if I was someone else you prolly be upset
If I was anyone else you wouldn't be happy with me
My prayers now laying in hopes that we could reconnect
I'm praying we can work things out between us
And my life'll be even keeled enough to be your man, damn
I hope I can be stable enough to be the man you want me to be
Because you might die if you get too high
You could overdose if you use drugs
And you might die if you don't even try
You could miss out on life if you don't take chances
So what's the difference?
Why not take risks if the outcome could be the same?
Know you don't wanna lose because we bruised
You don't want to lose us because we've been through tough times
But we still tulips but they stupid enough
We're still together despite what others may say
To think it's 'cause of what I give you
Others think our relationship is only about material things
They don't see all your riches for that, they all forgiven (forgiven)
They don't see your true value and worth, but I forgive them
I hold you tighter than a secret me and God had written
I love and care for you more than anything
Pocket privilege
I have the privilege of being with you
Still feel like a fuck up away from rich or broke again
I still worry about being successful or not
But money coming back quicker the easier I let go of it
Money comes back to me easily when I don't worry too much about it
World growing colder like a cell unfold with every shoulder tilts
The world is getting colder and lonelier
Wanted to yell now these days don't want no one to know here
I used to want to be heard, now I want to be left alone
Maybe we just depressed because the trees depressed
Maybe we're feeling depressed because of the world around us
And the sea's depressed, the only thing we see is death
All we see is sadness and death
And so the weed the best, the only hope reprieve from that
The only way to escape that is through drugs
They plead I keep in touch, I'm scrambling to keep intact
People want me to keep in touch, but I'm trying to keep myself together
I'm a track runner, it's where I hide my secrets at
I hide my secrets while running away from life
Fear that last slumber, first time my people see some rest
I'm afraid of dying, but it'll be the first time I'll be at peace
But ever since you been away
Since you've been gone
Nigga just been binging
I've been using drugs to cope
Finish spirits feeling vacant
I feel empty inside
And then defenestrate it
I try to throw those feelings away
And then just waiting 'til I see you again
I'm waiting for you to come back to me
It's getting empty searching the living when needing a friend
I'm feeling alone and lost without you

Never had no personal feelings toward the merch we stole
Purging everything pure hellscape vertigo
