In My Mind
S (Canada) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Got a lot on my mind
Got a lot on my mind again
Fighting myself all the time
Need to chew up and swallow my pride again
Cuz if I don't I might as well be just alone
Only eyes are my shadows
Liquor tasting like water
Fuck I've lost it
All again
Poppin' another one
Try to say its the last one
But I know that's dishonest
I'm ashamed
It's my only way of escaping
Left and the right one
Tryna tell me what's right, wrong
But it's only more confusing
Cuz I have a lot more demons
Than accounted for
I have a lot more feeding
off my heart, I'm sore
I'm fucking screaming
For all of it to stop
Got a lot on my mind
Got a lot on my mind again
Fighting myself all the time
Need to chew up and swallow my pride again
Call it what you want
Call it as you see
Call it fucking damaged, if what you see in me
Call it what you want
Call it as you see
Cuz I got a lot on my mind again
Now I'm doing donuts in the Benz
Whipping round with no hands
I ain't really got friends
I ain't really got friends like that
Yeah I swear I only got 10
And they all blessings amen
But they'll never understand
Yeah they'll never understand me
I got demons they coming to light
Evil eye, I'm in their sight
I'm breathing, but I'm not alive
Soaring I'm riding this high
I'm ready I've sharpened the knife
To cut off all of my ties
From the weight I've shouldered
All this time that made me want to hide
Got a lot on my mind
Got a lot on my mind again
Fighting myself all the time
Need to chew up and swallow my pride again
Call it what you want
Call it as you see
Call it fucking damaged, if what you see in me
Call it what you want




Call it as you see
Cuz I got a lot on my mind again

Feeling like there's no control over one's life


All again
This feeling has returned


Poppin' another one
Taking drugs to cope


Try to say its the last one
Knowing this behavior is harmful


But I know that's dishonest
Feeling unable to stop despite trying


I'm ashamed
Recognizing the negative impact of one's actions


It's my only way of escaping
Using substances to temporarily escape pain


Left and the right one
Everyone around has an opinion


Tryna tell me what's right, wrong
Being pressured to conform to others' standards


But it's only more confusing
The conflicting advice is not helpful


Cuz I have a lot more demons
Dealing with inner demons that others do not understand


Than accounted for
There are more issues than what is visible on the surface


I have a lot more feeding
The internal struggles are causing pain


off my heart, I'm sore
This emotional pain is taking a physical toll


I'm fucking screaming
Wanting a way out of this cycle of pain and self-destruction


For all of it to stop
Wishing for relief from the internal struggles


Call it what you want
Labeling oneself doesn't change the struggles being faced


Call it as you see
Others may label someone based on what they observe


Call it fucking damaged, if what you see in me
Acknowledging that these struggles have caused harm


Now I'm doing donuts in the Benz
Engaging in reckless behavior


Whipping round with no hands
Risking one's safety


I ain't really got friends
Feeling alone


I ain't really got friends like that
Not having close relationships


Yeah I swear I only got 10
A small number of people in life


And they all blessings amen
Grateful for those few friends


But they'll never understand
Others can't fully understand the internal struggles


Yeah they'll never understand me
Feeling isolated and misunderstood


I got demons they coming to light
Internal struggles are becoming harder to suppress


Evil eye, I'm in their sight
Feeling like one's struggles are visible to others


I'm breathing, but I'm not alive
Existing without truly living


Soaring I'm riding this high
Feeling temporary relief from the pain


I'm ready I've sharpened the knife
Feeling ready to make drastic changes


To cut off all of my ties
Making changes in relationships and habits


From the weight I've shouldered
Lightening the burden of internal struggles


All this time that made me want to hide
Past experiences and struggles have led to isolation


Call it what you want
Labels don't define someone's struggles


Call it as you see
Others may see the struggles and consequences


Cuz I got a lot on my mind again
Recurring internal struggles and emotional weight

Ooh, stop
Ooh
Ooh
With your feet on the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
But there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Way out in the water
See it swimming
I was swimming in the Caribbean
Animals were hiding behind the rock
Except the little fish
Bump into me, swear he's
Tryin' a talk to me, say wait wait
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Way out in the water
See it swimming
With your feet on the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
If there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Where is my mind?
Way out in the water
See it swimming
Ooh
With your feet on the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Hey life varies with its tragedies, accomplishments, failures,and so on.. nothing surprises me anymore. If it's tragic or spells an unimaginable fate, one of many..
I known of those who died with no name. Dead man, 15 yards from my damned eyes.
No memories of who he was.
Where he was going that day, but he was forgotten in an instant...
