Visions
The Internet (Odd Future) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Minded out my past
Damn its so familiar
That they hardly ever last
Now they tried tellin' me
Messed up on my mind
Called and saved my pain
Got the ones you'll never find
Its all right
Its all right
Its all right
Its all right
Its all right
We can play chess all night
Its all right
We can play chess all night
Tell me that I'm all right
Tell me
Tell me that I'm all right
Tell me
Tell me that I'm all right
Tell me
Tell me
The lyrics to The Internet featuring Coco O.'s song Visions are open to interpretation, but one possible meaning is a reflection on past mistakes and struggles. The opening line "time and time again" suggests a repeating pattern, perhaps of making the same mistakes over and over again. The next line "minded out my past" indicates an effort to be mindful of one's past actions and learn from them. However, the following line "damn it's so familiar, that they hardly ever last" suggests that despite this effort, the same mistakes often continue to happen.
The next few lines appear to be referencing external pressures, with someone trying to tell the singer that they messed up their mind, but the singer finding solace in others who have helped ease their pain. The repetition of "It's all right" may be a form of self-assurance, a reminder to stay positive and keep moving forward. The mention of playing chess all night could be a metaphor for dealing with life's challenges, with each move on the chessboard representing a decision that has consequences.
Overall, the song seems to be about the difficulties of the past and the determination to push through them, with the support of loved ones and an optimistic mindset.
