Trippie Redd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You left me in the cold
I was waitin' to see what you said again
You bring me above (you bring me above)
Straight mischief in my head again, oh (my head)
Some things I regret, I wish I could incinerate
Life's full of lies, and then you damn die
I thought we were in sync, but I misread the signs
I was such a fool to think I could make you mine
You left me in the cold
I was waitin' to see what you said again
You bring me above (Yeah, yeah)
Straight mischief in my head again, oh (Mischief in my head)
Sometimes I realize that I really need to get away
Some nights, my mind has thoughts that I wish I could incinerate
Life sells lies you should never buy
I got side effects, they never ever die
I was waitin' to see what you said again (What you said again)
You bring me above (You bring me above)
Straight mischief in my head again, oh
(Mischief in my head)
Oh, oh
Today, I saw a dotted line with your signature on the contract
Your soul is no longer mine, you saw Lucifer and made contact
In Trippie Redd's song "RED SKY," the artist sings about heartbreak and the pain of being left behind by a lover. The lyrics express a sense of confusion and frustration towards the end of a relationship, where expectations were not met, and the love turns cold. The imagery in the chorus highlights the emotional distance between the two lovers, with the singer left alone in the cold, waiting for a message that never comes. The line "you bring me above" suggests that the relationship was once uplifting, but straight mischief in the singer's head again indicates that the good times have ended, and negative emotions have taken over.
The verse lyrics demonstrate a longing to leave the heartbreak behind and move on. The artist expresses regret for things he wishes he could incinerate - hinting at harsh memories and actions taken in the relationship that caused damage. He recognizes that life is full of lies and is short-lived, making it essential to break free from toxic influences. The line "I got side effects, they never ever die" is a powerful metaphor demonstrating that the repercussions of negative relationships can haunt an individual even after it's ended.
Overall, Trippie Redd delivers a raw perspective on heartbreak and the emotional turmoil that comes with the end of a relationship.
