Life is a stage in wich we all play
And the world is a symphonie of sarcastic lost
I like to be a part of the global game
And i left beind chokin′ on the dust

Chokin' on the dust

Life is a stage in wich we all play
And the world is a symphonie of sarcastic lost
I like to be a part of the global game
And i left beind chokin′ on the dust

Chokin′ on the dust
Chokin' on the dust
Chokin′ on the dust
Chokin' on the dust

Chokin′ on the dust

Chokin′ on the dust

Overall Meaning

"Chokin' on the Dust Pt. 1" by Robert Pattinson speaks about the reality of life and the challenges that come with it. The first verse suggests that life is like a stage where everyone has a role to play and the world is a symphony of sarcastic los(t), which could mean that the world is full of criticism and negativity. Despite this, the artist still wants to be a part of the "global game", which suggests that he still wants to be a part of the challenges of life. However, he leaves behind "chokin' on the dust", which could mean that he is struggling or left behind due to the challenges that come with life.


The repeating chorus of "Chokin' on the Dust" emphasizes the struggles that come with life. The repetition suggests that it is not an easy thing to overcome and could be a constant battle. The last verse repeats the same lyrics, which could mean that the situation he is in hasn't changed. It is possible that he is still struggling despite wanting to be a part of the challenges that come with life.
