EYES
Mr. Bout-It Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I see a world better off without me
And every time I try to cry
I hear my friends and they all doubt me
And every time I open up my eyes
They like to drown me
In my own lies
My own eyes
I'm running low on life
Cause my mind is
All erased from here
And my heart is shot it can't be fixed
But your love it could repair the hit
But who's gonna watch over it
Oh boy my eyes just wanna die
Oh boy my eyes just wanna die
I'm running low on time
I'm running low on life
And every time I open up my eyes
And every time I open up my mind
The lyrics to Mr. Bout-It's song "Eyes" express feelings of despair, loneliness, and self-doubt. The persona in the song struggles with their perception of the world and themselves. They feel that the world would be better off without them, as evidenced by the line "Every time I look outside, I see a world better off without me." This indicates a deep sense of pessimism and a lack of self-worth.
The persona also expresses the difficulty they face in expressing their emotions. They mention that every time they try to cry, their friends doubt them, which suggests that they are not receiving the emotional support they crave. Additionally, when they open their eyes, they feel overwhelmed by their own lies, implying a sense of self-deception or living a life that is not true to themselves.
The repeated line "I'm running low on time, I'm running low on life" exposes the persona's desperation and feeling of being at the end of their rope. They feel as if their mind is erased, indicating a loss of clarity or purpose, and their heart is broken beyond repair. However, they acknowledge that love has the potential to heal their wounds, though they question who will be there to provide that love and watch over them.
In summary, the song "Eyes" delves into themes of despair, loneliness, self-doubt, and longing for love and support. The persona feels disconnected from the world and themselves, longing for someone to help mend their broken heart and guide them through their struggles.

Every time I look outside
Whenever I observe the external world
I see a world better off without me
I perceive a world that would be improved if I were not a part of it
And every time I try to cry
Each occasion I attempt to shed tears
I hear my friends and they all doubt me
I receive skepticism and lack of faith from my companions
And every time I open up my eyes
On every instance of unveiling my vision
They like to drown me
They take pleasure in submerging me
In my own lies
Within the falsehoods I fabricate
My own eyes
My personal viewpoints
I'm running low on time
I am lacking ample time
I'm running low on life
My existence is diminishing
Cause my mind is
Because my thoughts are
All erased from here
Completely wiped away from this place
And my heart is shot it can't be fixed
Additionally, my heart is damaged beyond repair
But your love it could repair the hit
However, your affection has the potential to mend the blow
But who's gonna watch over it
Nevertheless, who will protect and safeguard it?
Oh boy my eyes just wanna die
Oh dear, my eyes yearn for their demise
And every time I open up my mind
Furthermore, whenever I expose my thoughts

I agree, her verse on "I Always Feel Like (Somebody's Watching Me)" is one of the best gangsta rap verses of all time. She killed everything she touched around this time.
Brother James
It's a toss up between her and Mystikal for me. They definitely held it down

Young Bleed was pretty good when he was with them but he wasn't a wordsmith just flows
