In this World
T-P Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
Just tryna be on cloud nine
I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
Just tryna be on cloud nine
I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
White people you took our sound
Not the music
But are voice to be found
Too many people out here fake
Inspired by this power
Baking up the bread need my flower
Imma be at the highest in TOWER
Sick of being quiet
Take this POWER
This world to divided
Feel like it's 1955 all over again
Rosa getting arrested
Compared to George Floyd being killed
You hate me
And that's so crazy
Shouldn't be scared for my safety
But all I see lately
Black people being killed
Not a lot of guilties
Can't even go on a date
My heart feeling with hate
Fuck who's next
Is it me
I don't want to wait and see
I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
Just tryna be on cloud nine
I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
Just tryna be on cloud nine
I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
Just tryna be on cloud nine
I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
OOOU-AHH
It's a struggle tryna exhale
Stricken with the fever that's red just when the cup spill
Running out of time and I'm shook
I don't know what they took
But repercussions felt in this room is the living proof
Giant growing through the roof
I want to shoot but family gonna feel it too
I cause a hoot but they called ignorant youth
I don't know what to do so I'm running to the booth
Spit my heart and my truth
We doing it for Lou
3L's that's the view
Live, life, learning for the loot
And the hate of a fool will never ever put a stain on me
United States of the Black
JD the leader of the states Army
Mobbs rule in effect
Can't stand the heat best be protecting ya neck
Cause not another white man goin put his hand my chest
I'm letting cans roll I'm not talking the chef
I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
Just tryna be on cloud nine
I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
Just tryna be on cloud nine
I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
Just tryna be on cloud nine
I just wanna get high
All the time
I'm not tryna die
Yo
It's crazy cause when i grew up
I grew up on only god should put fear in your heart
And now i'm 21 years old about to be 22
Scared for my life every time i walk out my house
And not because i've done wrong
Or I've done wrong to someone
But simply because
I'm an educated gay black women
This world is so fucked and
Not ready to understand
And wonder why every day we fight for justice and equality
Talking about it ended no it didn't end it just got hushed
Pushed down under
Quiet
To make us believe that
There's change in this world




When there really isn't
But that's my 2 cents

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to T-P's "In This World" speak about feeling lost in life and the struggles of being away from home. The song's English and Italian lyrics paint vivid pictures of the difficulties of navigating through different cultures and adjusting to life in new environments. The Italian verses, specifically, delve into the hectic and sometimes frustrating experiences of living in Milan and London. T-P describes his attempts to remain disengaged and cool, but ultimately, he feels lost and disconnected from his roots. In California, T-P finds solace in the sun, but in New York, he faces the harshness of a busy city. The chorus repeats like a mantra, as if T-P is trying to find his way back home or create a new one.


The song's mix of Italian and English lyrics reflects T-P’s multilingual identity, adding to the complexities of the song's meaning. "In This World" is not just about feeling lost physically but also losing oneself in the materialistic and capitalist culture of our world. T-P talks about how his ambition is greater than the Empire State Building and how he wants to escape from a country "in panne," which roughly translates to a country at a standstill. Overall, the song is a call to every person who feels lost and seeks to find a sense of direction or belonging, regardless of the location or language spoken.
