Grey
gr3y Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can feel a water drop rolling down through my face
I've been in the zone I ain't been the same
Bright and early days all I see is grey
Bright and early days all I see is grey
Don't leave, nights early
Baby won't you stay a while
When I'm all alone all I hear is sounds
Hate it when you run from me
I could use some company
So, please
Hope that tapping outside is a soul, I'm sick of trees
Another cup of something rough I'll fill it up with ease
We don't care for what you say we care bout what you mean
In other words, fuck what you say
Speakers blasting me right through your phone like it's the wave
I've done saved too many hoes I'm running out of space
Why ain't an angel watching me
I done seen a lot of shit I can't unsee
Baby spread your wings and let's be free
Fly high
High above a rainbow, I can't see
Maybe one day you will shed some light on me
I can feel a water drop rolling down through my face
I've been in the zone I ain't been the same
Bright and early days all I see is grey
Bright and early days all I see is grey
Don't leave, nights early
Baby won't you stay a while
When I'm all alone all I hear is sounds
Hate it when you run from me
I could use some company
I know, I know
That the lights out the cameras flashing won't shed light on my life
I know, I know
That the darkness will be haunting me for the rest of my life
That be the truth
I'm back so ya'll gotta move
Cop a Royce and watch my view
Spit with five 9's in the booth
Never know who fucking with you
No sleep don't hit my snooze
Because if I drop today
What is there left to prove
Life at stake don't know what'll get me by
Ls to the face gon' get me low not high
Step aside, I want my, peace of mind that I can't find
Sorry I'm, dead inside, I don't got too much of time
I can feel a water drop rolling down through my face
I've been in the zone I ain't been the same
Bright and early days all I see is grey
Bright and early days all I see is grey
Don't leave, nights early
Baby won't you stay a while
When I'm all alone all I hear is sounds
Hate it when you run from me
I could use some company
Don't go
You ain't gotta leave yet
Have a drink, take a seat
But I wanna go home
Don't go
No, the roads are wet
And it's cold, you'll probably freeze
Mama is expecting me
La di da di don't go
You're gonna leave me alone you see
Something is wrong with me
I pray you don't fall for me
Don't go
Can we get the check please
You're starting to upset me
Don't you fucking touch me
Don't go
I can feel a water drop rolling down through my face
I've been in the zone I ain't been the same
Bright and early days all I see is grey
Bright and early days all I see is grey
Don't leave, nights early
Baby won't you stay a while
When I'm all alone all I hear is sounds




Hate it when you run from me
I could use some company

Overall Meaning

The song "Grey" by gr3y is a reflection of the artist's emotional state. The opening lyrics, "I can feel a water drop rolling down through my face, I've been in the zone I ain't been the same," set the tone for the song. The artist is struggling with his emotions, feeling detached from himself and the world around him. He describes his days as "bright and early," but all he sees is "grey," emphasizing his emotional numbness.


The chorus of the song is a desperate plea for companionship. The artist is alone and hears only "sounds" when he is by himself, and he hates it when people run from him. He is looking for someone to keep him company, to distract him from his own dark thoughts. The line "Why ain't an angel watching me, I done seen a lot of shit I can't unsee" suggests that the artist has experienced trauma and is struggling to deal with it alone.


The second verse of the song continues with the theme of struggle, with the artist acknowledging that he knows the darkness will be haunting him for the rest of his life. He is desperate for some peace of mind, but he can't seem to find it. The artist also references fame and the pressure that comes with it, stating, "That the lights out the cameras flashing won't shed light on my life." The song ends on a cliffhanger, with the artist pleading for someone not to go, suggesting that he needs someone to stay with him.


Overall, "Grey" is a melancholic and introspective song that speaks to the pain of feeling lonely and detached.
