Coldest nights,
Way that it burns
Bro likes fights
Hope that he learns
Done miles on the bike
Non handed turns
Do what I like
I don't judge like stern
More like simon
When I saw red
He got frightened
If i want bread
Dont do consignment
Stand up and work
Or sit and stay silent
S, I wont dress to impress
But I'll make an impression
The way he got pressed
He knows compression
I'm in my own head
Can't teach me a lesson
I'm thinking in yellow
I'm clocking these lemons
Babes got melons
I want a fruit salad
Babes got melons
I want a fruit salad
Can't move orange like ed
I wont sing ballads
My faith in my trust
It's all that I had
But I'm losing my touch
Oh no no no
You said what you said but
You broke it instead
Now it's all my head
I can't forget
Who gon make amends now
You said that we was friends, wow
Could see it through my lenses
You had second guesses
Way too complicated
I'm tired of waiting
I'm losing patience
What a shame, oh what a shame
Going too quick on the fast lane
By the time we slowed down it was too late
Had the top dropped down like the Mulsanne
Got my hands tied up like a shoelace
Look around ye this shit goes two ways
Cut me off left stains on the blade
Now my head in the clouds nothing was the same
Its hard to be this cute
I played your tape
All on mute
Why did he lie?
Not one word of truth in his rhymes
Look deep in his eyes and the lies there too
I'm tryna get off the timeline
Its my time and darling you should too
I'm tryna make some moves
Fuck my eyes with my hands I wanna undress you
Say you need some time
But I'm losing my mind
You look more than nice
Looking like my type
Show me paradise
Show me ride or die
Show me what it's like
Ah ah ah
My faith in my trust
It's all that I had
But I'm losing my touch
Oh no no no
You said what you said but
You broke it instead
Now it's all my head
I can't forget
The lyrics to Vas's song "In Our Faith" speak to themes of trust, betrayal, and self-reflection. The opening lines set a tone of emotional struggle, juxtaposing the intense burn of cold nights with a reference to a friend who seems to invite conflict, hoping that they eventually learn from their actions. The mention of non-handed turns on a bike represents a daring approach to life, doing what one likes with a screw-faced determination. The line "I don't judge like stern, more like Simon" references the famous TV personality Simon Cowell, suggesting a more discerning and critical judgment rather than a harsh and unforgiving one.
The second verse delves deeper into the singer's mindset, expressing a sense of detachment and self-assuredness. The use of the color yellow reflects a positive and bright perspective, contrasting with the emotions of the previous lines. The mention of melons and fruit salad might be metaphorical, symbolizing a desire for abundance and variety in life. The repeated phrase "I won't sing ballads" could imply a reluctance to dwell on sadness or heartbreak.
The chorus reveals a sense of disappointment and hurt caused by someone who broke a promise or betrayed the singer's trust. The lines "You said what you said but / You broke it instead" convey a feeling of being let down, with the thoughts constantly playing in the singer's head, making it hard to forget.
Overall, "In Our Faith" explores the complexities of relationships and the challenges of maintaining trust in the face of betrayal. It highlights the importance of self-reflection, resilience, and the search for personal growth even in difficult circumstances.
Line by Line Meaning
Yeah
Confirmation or agreement
Coldest nights, Way that it burns
Experiencing intense emotional pain
Bro likes fights, Hope that he learns
My friend enjoys conflict, hoping he gains wisdom from it
Done miles on the bike, Non handed turns
I've traveled long distances on my bike, skillfully navigating without using my hands
Do what I like, Screwface I'm stern
I do whatever I want confidently, maintaining a serious expression
I don't judge like stern, More like simon
I don't criticize harshly, but rather offer constructive feedback like Simon Cowell
When I saw red, He got frightened
When I became angry, he became scared
If i want bread, Dont do consignment
If I want money, I don't engage in illegal activities
Stand up and work, Or sit and stay silent
Either take action and be productive, or remain quiet and passive
S, I wont dress to impress But I'll make an impression
I don't focus on appearance, but I aim to leave a lasting impact
The way he got pressed, He knows compression
He understands pressure and its effects
I'm in my own head, Can't teach me a lesson
I'm lost in my thoughts, resistant to being taught
I'm thinking in yellow, I'm clocking these lemons
I'm optimistic, turning negative situations into opportunities
Babes got melons, I want a fruit salad
Women have attractive physical features, I desire variety
Can't move orange like ed, I wont sing ballads
I can't manipulate situations like Ed Sheeran, and I won't write romantic songs
My faith in my trust, It's all that I had But I'm losing my touch
I had confidence in my beliefs and reliance on others, but now I feel disconnected
You said what you said but You broke it instead Now it's all my head I can't forget
You made promises you didn't keep, causing turmoil in my mind
Who gon make amends now You said that we was friends, wow
Who will take responsibility for repairing the damage? You claimed we were friends, which is surprising
Could see it through my lenses You had second guesses
I saw the situation clearly, but you had doubts
Way too complicated, I'm tired of waiting I'm losing patience
It's overly complex, I'm exhausted from waiting and becoming less patient
What a shame, oh what a shame Going too quick on the fast lane
It's regrettable and unfortunate, moving too quickly in life
By the time we slowed down it was too late Had the top dropped down like the Mulsanne
When we finally slowed down, it was already too late. The roof of our car was open like a luxury vehicle
Got my hands tied up like a shoelace Look around ye this shit goes two ways
Feeling trapped and restricted, understanding that situations have multiple perspectives
Cut me off left stains on the blade Now my head in the clouds nothing was the same
You abruptly ended our connection, leaving emotional scars. Now I feel detached from reality
Its hard to be this cute I played your tape All on mute
It's difficult to maintain attractiveness while shutting out your influence
Why did he lie? Not one word of truth in his rhymes Look deep in his eyes and the lies there too
Why did he deceive me? Every word in his songs is false, and even his eyes reveal the lies
I'm tryna get off the timeline Its my time and darling you should too
I'm attempting to move beyond the constraints of time. It's my turn, and you should also embrace your moment
I'm tryna make some moves Fuck my eyes with my hands I wanna undress you
I'm trying to make progress. Metaphorically, I want to explore your body intimately
Say you need some time But I'm losing my mind You look more than nice Looking like my type
You claim to need space, but I'm becoming increasingly anxious. You are incredibly attractive and match my preferences
Show me paradise Show me ride or die Show me what it's like Ah ah ah
Demonstrate to me a perfect place and a loyal companion. Show me the reality of it with enthusiasm
