The Future
Mysteryskulls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm worried 'bout the future, future, future, future...
Ain't got no money for the nice things, I barely got enough for rent.
Ain't got no clue 'bout where I'm going, and making dollars, but at least I'm making sense.
Don't need no cash, ain't got no soul, don't need no flesh, just want control.
Never grope enough, you know it's just the way I do it.
I want the gold, ain't no sucker, baby.
I'm worried 'bout the future, and fuckin' with the past.
Ain't got no time to waste on pussy, you know I gotta keep my head on straight.
'Cuz at the rate these times keep changing, I don't really care about second place. Mmhm.
Don't need no cash, ain't got no soul, don't need no flesh, just want control.
Never grope enough, you know it's just the way I do it.
I want the gold, ain't no sucker, baby.
And when you least expect it, I'll be coming from your room.
I'm worried 'bout the future, and fuckin' with the past.
The lyrics to Mystery Skulls' "The Future" express the singer's anxieties about the future while also highlighting their ambition and determination to succeed. The repeated refrain of "I'm worried 'bout the future, future, and fuckin' with that passion, baby" conveys a sense of urgency and desperation. The singer is concerned about their financial situation, expressing that they don't have "no money for the nice things" and only "barely got enough for rent." At the same time, they don't want to waste time on trivialities like "pussy" and instead focus on their goals for success. They want control, not just of themselves, but also of their environment, as highlighted by the line "And when you least expect it, I'll be coming from your room."

The line "And fuckin' with the past" further underscores this tension, as it suggests that the singer is grappling with past mistakes or regrets that might hold them back in the future.
