Shyler Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Baby know I ain't shit
Tried my best to save this
Running out of patience
Living like I'm famous
Baby know I ain't shit
Tried my best to save this
I told you what I wanted and how I'm feeling now
You turned around and held your gun right at my crown
Face it I'm a user can't control myself
She's pacing back and forth I'm tryna calm her down
Please don't make excuses
Calling me useless
Cause I'm abusing
All of these drugs that I'm choosing
Keeping my patience under control
'Cuz life without you I can't take it no more
I'll never face it you know I'm praying
The sky is the limit
So I'm always chasing
Stuck at bottom of hell
No one is wishing me well
My life is so fucked up right now
And I can't wait to let it out
My life is so fucked up right now
I'm trying not to kill myself
I told you what I wanted and how I'm feeling now
You turned around and held your gun right at my crown
Face it I'm a user can't control myself
She's pacing back and forth I'm tryna calm her down
Living like I'm famous
Baby know I ain't shit
Tried my best to save this
Running out patience
Living like I'm famous
Baby know I ain't shit
Tried my best to save this
Running out patience
In "Famous," Shyler portrays the life of a person who is living like they are famous, but they know they are not worth much. The song talks about how the singer has tried to save something, maybe a relationship or their reputation, but they are running out of patience. Even though they are behaving like a celebrity, they acknowledge that they are not significant.
The song's tone changes as the singer takes responsibility for the problems he created. He talks about how he asked for what he wanted, and now someone he loves has a gun pointed at his head. The singer admits that he's a user who cannot control himself, and the other person is trying to calm them down. The story ends with the singer begging for forgiveness, being aware of their situation and trying to control their use of drugs as their relationship crumbles.
"Famous" is a song that describes the struggle with identity and the vulnerability of those who often try to live up to society's impossible standards. The singer is not famous, but they live as if they are, trying to save something important to them. However, their addiction to drugs and their inability to control themselves could cost them everything they have struggled for.
