Weight of the World
NsJ Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let it out
Pressure too high got me on the ground
Open my eyes I can feel it now
Twist top
Let it go
Dulling my myself with the chemicals
I'm trying my best but I'm a hoarder
Got to find a way to make some space
Building up a wall to make a border
And escape
So I can carry the weight of the
Weight of the world in my head
Carry the weight of the
Weight of the world
Exhale
Breathe again
Guess it's a habit to hold it in
Wading the water but I can't swim
I'm trying my best but I'm a hoarder
Got to find a way to make some space
Building up a wall to make a border
And escape
So I can carry the weight of the
Weight of the world in my head
Carry the weight of the
Weight of the world
"Weight Of The World" by NsJ is a self-reflective song that delves into the struggles of the singer, highlighting themes of pressure, isolation, and the burden of carrying the weight of the world on one's shoulders.
In the first verse, the lyrics convey a sense of being overwhelmed. The singer is instructed to "lie down" and "let it out," indicating that they are feeling immense pressure and stress. The line "pressure too high got me on the ground" illustrates that the weight of their responsibilities or problems has become too much to bear. However, they are also able to acknowledge their feelings, as they state, "open my eyes I can feel it now."
The second verse continues to explore the singer's coping mechanisms. The line "twist top, let it go" suggests that they turn to substances or vices as a way to numb themselves from their emotions. The mention of "another long night with my thoughts alone" portrays a sense of loneliness and isolation, indicating that they don't have anyone to share their burden with or find solace in.
The chorus serves as a recurring motif throughout the song, emphasizing the singer's desire to free themselves from their mental and emotional burdens. The lines "I'm trying my best but I'm a hoarder, got to find a way to make some space" reveal that they acknowledge their tendencies to hold onto negative emotions and experiences, which only contribute to the weight they carry. The mention of "building up a wall to make a border" suggests that they are trying to protect themselves but also prevent others from understanding or helping them.
In the final verse, the lyrics depict the singer attempting to find release and breathe freely again. "Exhale, breathe again, guess it's a habit to hold it in" suggests that they have become accustomed to suppressing their emotions and that it has become second nature to them. The metaphor of "wading the water but I can't swim" further highlights their struggle to keep their head above water and stay afloat amidst their burdens.
Overall, "Weight of the World" showcases the internal battle of an individual overwhelmed by the pressures and responsibilities they carry. It portrays their attempt to find a way to escape and find relief from the weight they bear, highlighting themes of self-awareness, isolation, and the struggle for mental and emotional well-being.
