Desperate Youth is a full expression in sixteen songs to encourage us as youth to pursue whatever the hell we want to do instead of falling subdue to the swirling pressures of today, and to, bang in the whip.
Lately
WebsterX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Saw this vision on the frequent
In every mirror, every woman, every demon
In every chamber I've been caught up in the secrets
Y'all niggas fufu oh so lazy I've been eatin' well
(well… well...)
Feeling the rush
Feeling the twisting of words on the hush
Vivid depictions of us in the cut
What is enough, what is enough?
I shake my hair to turn up
And every time I step in the club
Well I never really step in the club
We just explore and blow shit up
Here we are all young
For our dreams we'll run
I say dawg just chill buckle up
Cause we're in this ride 'til it's done
And they'll know just where we're all from
And they'll know just where we're all from (yeah)
Well if it's all on me
Dawg it's all on me
Why's it all on me
Well if it's all on me
If it's all on me
Then it's all on team (yeah)
Well if it's all on me
Then it's all on team
I'm shaking we're mobbing it's time to clear shit up
The pieces to puzzles we're surely fixing up
I'm honest with visions so why's the pressure tough?
Young niggas wylin' rekindle the buzz
I speak in sign language throw ya hands up!
Dawg chill you've been tweakin'
The funks usually speak on weekends
And I've been enjoying beatin'
The demons that steady creep in
I'm flexin' enough for me
And my team is unique in dreamin'
And climbing is what we're teachin'
Well if it's all on me
Dawg it's all on me
Then it's all on team (yeah)
Well if it's all on me
If it's all on me
Then it's all on team
Well if it's all on me
Then it's all on team
Wha?
I'm shaking we're mobbing it's time to clear shit up
The pieces to puzzles we're surely fixing up
I'm honest with visions so why's the pressure tough?
Young niggas wylin' rekindle the buzz
I speak in sign language throw ya hands up!
The lyrics of "Lately" by WebsterX talk about self-reflection and self-awareness. He mentions having visions and seeing them constantly in different aspects of his life such as mirrors, women, and demons. These visions are related to the secrets and the chambers he has been caught up in. He also refers to feeling the rush and the twisting of words, vivid depictions of himself and his crew, wondering what is enough, and shaking his hair to turn up. WebsterX mentions that he has been enjoying beating the demons that constantly creep in and how he and his team are unique in dreaming and climbing.
The chorus of the song talks about being young, going for their dreams, and how they are all in this ride until it's done. WebsterX mentions the pressure being tough and rekindling the buzz, but all he needs is his unique team to continue teaching and climbing. When he talks about shaking and mobbing, it shows that he and his team are ready to clear things up and fix the pieces of the puzzles.
