Wisdom
P.H.O.B.O.S. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is a fire
And it burns to ash
Got So many questions
Different paths
Take by each person
This a flash
This life done quick
Equipped with facts
To make this
Mess immac
Reverse the trap
The wasted
Purpose rap
Immersed in that
It's basic
Flirt with death
I'm working next
To Nathan
World is vexed
And punishment
Is faceless
Pain doesn't get a score
say that I'm hurt
You tell me that you're hurting more
Say that I'm cleave
But I see that it ain't enough
Say that you'll leave
Best believe
Ima call your bluff,
I'm not super tuff,
I'm invincible
I'm odd
Undivisable
With words
Unmissable
Above my backside
I hang my
Mistletoe
DnD dice roll
Random how this'll go...
Critical!
Gun soaked
I can almost taste it
Millions of memories
Made it the basement
Now that I'm grown
Back then
it was pavement
Street socc God
No exaggeration
1 way to make it
Practice n patience
The World will awaken
I'm sent here to save it
Deforestation
It leaves a bad taste in
my mouth,
Like when I speak words of doubt
I Believe!
In you
and the projects
That you do
Being Facetious is feces
That's poo poo
New threads from vv
Money I'm not used to
My library
Is much bigger than YouTube
Français infini
Na I'm not finished yet
Not till the gears in my head stop glitterin'
Not till the snake in my spine stops slitherin'
Not till the rebound's mine and I put it in!
Warning
Incoming beat
No way my kid
Trick or treats
Cancer synonym
Is candy
So chew cinnamon
Not dentyne
Ha!
I'm versatile
Like 640 commercial drive
Many uses
Who is the God that you describe
Bet it's the same as mine
Chill if it isn't though
Focus on inner glow
Spirits gimme iller flow
Let's fucking go
The song "Wisdom" by P.H.O.B.O.S is a contemplative reflection on the fleeting nature of life and the importance of taking hold of the present moment. The lyrics convey this message through metaphors of fire and ashes, highlighting the briefness of life on this earth. The artist acknowledges the vast array of questions that come with life and the different paths people take but emphasizes the need to seize the moment and make the best of it. The artist also stresses the importance of being equipped with knowledge and facts to make a potent impact in the world, rather than being lost in a trap of purposeless existence.
The song's themes move from the profound to the personal as the artist delves into themes of heartache and resilience in relationships. The artist acknowledges that pain is subjective and that comparing one person's pain to another is unproductive. This part of the song emphasizes the importance of empathy in human relationships and avoiding being dismissive of people's emotions. Towards the end of the song, the artist talks about his confidence in himself and his capabilities, even in the face of challenge and adversity. The artist ends the song by urging listeners to focus on their inner selves and let their spirits guide them to create impactful change in the world.
