Sooner or Later
N¤E¤R¤D Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Crushing down (crushing down)
When everyone's around
I bet you would've paid up or you'll cash down (you'll cash down)
And not make a sound (to make a sound)
Everyone knows now
(So you're sad)
You couldn't see her leaving
(You were gassed)
And that's sucks don't it cause
God yanked the rug and holding your heart will not help you breathe
Sooner or later it all comes crushing down (crushing down),
Crushing down (crushing down)
When everyone's around
I bet you would've paid up or you'll cash down (you'll cash down)
And not make a sound (to make a sound)
Everyone knows now
It all some crushing down
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
(So you're sad)
And you should own it and you fucked up (Damn)
You thought that you were the team
(You were gassed)
And now you're a opponent who wears your gloves (Damn)
A nightmare just ate up your dreams
Sooner or later it all comes crushing down (crushing down),
Crushing down (crushing down)
When everyone's around
I bet you would've paid up or you'll cash down (you'll cash down)
And not make a sound (to make a sound)
Everyone knows now
It all some crushing down
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
(So you're sad)
Could have had so much done you blew it off (Damn)
Your chance is passing you by
(You were gassed)
Time waits for no one
And it cost for a lost
Because made joke should you laugh or cry
Sooner or later it all comes crushing down (crushing down),
Crushing down (crushing down)
When everyone's around
I bet you would've paid up or you'll cash down (you'll cash down)
And not make a sound (to make a sound)
Everyone knows now
It all some crushing down
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
It's over believe it
It's over believe it

Did RM shout NERD out recently? that’s ill. not enough people appreciate how influential but cool this band was. Pharrell and Chad Hugo are under appreciated visionaries. RM def knows what he’s talking about, their conversation from a few years ago is tight too.
