Iceland Moss
Sudan Archives Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm tired
I'm bothered
Yet dwelling on the fact
You're just like
My father
You don't know when to quit it, admit it

I don't need your fucking handle
Tired of this silly dance
As I'm the special on my high out
Don't get it twisted, this is where I stand
Don't get consumed, don't wanna want to
Had a couple rounds, now it's my turn
Can't stand to see a nigga flirty
Don't get it twisted, this is where I stand

You think I'm soft
Like Iceland moss
All over me
Mike harmonies
Life's a priest ring
So smooth like us
I think that's why
We're eye to eye

I'd rather lose focus instead
Enjoy these moments to spare
Looks like we're going nowhere
I left my path, got my wine
And saw the words on the wall
Our love's a cave in the dark
It read that you're all done

She said, "How you going? Walk around, acting like you don't even care"
"Last year we were so close, tell me, how'd we get here?"
If you don't know, then I'll make it clear

I don't need your fucking handle
Tired of this silly dance
As I'm the special on my high out
Don't get it twisted this is where I stand

You think I'm soft
Like Iceland moss
All over me
Mike harmonies
Life's a priest ring
So smooth like us
I think that's why
We're eye to eye

You think I'm soft like Iceland moss
Watch me prance in the Iceland loft
That we built with the Iceland thoughts
While you watched through the window coat

I loved you soft like Iceland moss
I loved you soft like Iceland moss
I held you close like Iceland moss
I held you close then I saw you off

You think I'm soft
Like Iceland moss
All over me
Mike harmonies
Life's a priest ring
So smooth like us




I think that's why
We're eye to eye

Overall Meaning

In Sudan Archives's song "Iceland Moss," the artist is expressing her exhaustion and frustration with a relationship that is similar to that of her relationship with her father. She is tired of the constant dance and the other person's inability to quit and admit their mistakes.

She also explores ideas of vulnerability and tenderness, comparing herself to Iceland moss, which is soft and delicate yet resilient. The song highlights themes of self-worth, self-love, and empowerment.


The lines "Life's a priest ring, so smooth like us" refer to the smoothness of the Iceland moss and the resilience it has, almost like a symbolic reference to life. The song is dynamic, presenting the listener with an empowering message wrapped in poetic lyricism, and the upbeat combination of electronic sounds and African stringed instruments leave the listener captivated and enveloped in the song.

Last year we were intimate, explain how we ended up like this


If you don't know, then I'll make it clear
If you are unaware, then I will explain


Watch me prance in the Iceland loft
Observe me dance playfully in the Icelandic space


That we built with the Iceland thoughts
That we constructed with the Icelandic ideas


While you watched through the window coat
As you observed through the window covering


I loved you soft like Iceland moss
I loved you gentle and tender like the Arctic plant


I held you close like Iceland moss
I held you closely and lovingly like the Arctic plant


I held you close then I saw you off
I embraced you then I let you leave

Lyrics

I'm tired
I'm bothered
Yet dwelling on the fact
You're just like
My father
You don't know when to quit it, admit it

I don't need your fucking hang up
Tired of this silly dance
There's something special on the high note
Don't get it twisted this is where I stand
Don't get consumed the one I'm on to
Had a couple hurts and now it's my turn
Can't stand to see a nigga blowing
Don't get it twisted this is where I stand

[Chorus]
You think I'm soft
Like Iceland moss
All over me
Like harmonies
Life's so breezy
So smooth like us
I think that's why
We're eye to eye

[Verse 2]
I'd rather lose focus instead
Enjoy these moments to spare
Looks like we're going nowhere
I let my path guide my heart
And saw the words on the wall
Our love's a cave in the dark
It read that you're all talk

Is that how you gon' walk around, acting like you don't even care?
Last year we were so close, tell me how did we get here?
If you don't know, then I'll make it clear"

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't need your fucking hang up
Tired of this silly dance
There's something special in the high note
Don't get it twisted this is where I stand

[Chorus]
You think I'm soft
Like Iceland moss
All over me
Like harmonies
Life's so breezy
So smooth like us
I think that's why
We're eye to eye
