End of the day
TheRealTaco Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was born in '94
Came out without my right ear
This goddamn deformity has caused me plenty of tears
Longed to be treated normally
For fucking years and years
Other kids words hurt me
Cut my flesh like throwing spears
So get out the way stop looking at me
Don't care what you say I'm not so friendly
I don't feel good
I don't feel like I'ma make it even though I think I should
Parents kicked me out they didn't like what I was about
So then I moved out all by myself
I don't need nobody no not no one else
I can't do it all on my own
Prove it to myself my mind is gone
I'm not myself till I smoked a cone
Till I'm all toked up now I'm in that zone
I won't feel like I belong till I'm on that throne
At least I tried
Make sure to mention on my headstone
I longed to be heard in your headphones ugh

Does it even matter
At the end of the day
My brain is scattered
At the end of the day
Does anybody care
At the end of the day
I've had it up to here
And I don't give a fuck bout what they say yeah

I was born in '94
Came out without my right ear
This goddamn deformity has caused me plenty of tears
Longed to be treated normally
For fucking years and years
Other kids words hurt me
Cut my flesh like throwing spears

I'm so sick and tired of my friends acting different
They said they heard my song today
But today I have no listens
Acting like I don't pay attention
Words attack like an infection
I'm at a point where reality is just a misconception
But I see the bullshit and hear it everyday
My life is bullshit it's attracting my way
It can't be that bad is what they gon say
Don't blame you for thinking I could handle more my way
But I swear to god I can't do it no more
I'm considering everything that's happened before
Don't know if I have strength to break down another door
Tryna ask God, "what the fuck is this all for ugh!"

Does it even matter
Cuz I'm doomed as fuck
Do y'all even care
that I'm about to give up
I know I got it in me
I could show y'all up
Wanna bring my city with me
Yeah I say those words so simply

Does it even matter
At the end of the day
My brain is scattered
At the end of the day
Does anybody care
At the end of the day
I've had it up to here
And I don't give a fuck bout what they say yeah

I was born in '94
Came out without my right ear
This goddamn deformity has caused me plenty of tears
Longed to be treated normally
For fucking years and years




Other kids words hurt me
Cut my flesh like throwing spears
