Independent
oceanfromtheblue Lyrics

Keep peace with my enemies
I strive to maintain a peaceful relationship with those who may not necessarily like or agree with me.

Self love for my sanity
I prioritize loving myself and taking care of my own well-being to maintain good mental health.

Where do I belong in here
I struggle with a sense of belonging or fitting in with those around me.

Why am I not welcome here
I feel like an outsider and wonder why I am not accepted in certain spaces.

Stay true
I remind myself to remain authentic to who I am as a person.

Trying to make with no label in my motherland
I am pursuing my goals and dreams without the support or backing of a major record label in my home country.

No love for the money, maybe couple bands
While I am not solely driven by money, making a decent amount of income to support myself and those close to me is important.

I got some feelings left for ya
Despite whatever may have happened in the past, I still have some emotional connection to a certain person.

And you know where just to find me
If that person wants to reach out or reconnect, they already know how to get in touch with me.

Been away for a while still can't find someone like me
Even though I have been gone for some time, I still feel like I stand out and am unique compared to those around me.

She be asking for the paper
A woman is asking me for money or other material possessions or favors.

Pullin' out clean yeah she suckin' on my vapour
Showing off my wealth or status, this woman is performing sexual acts on me.

Took a trip trying to runaway from my issues it's out of hand
I have attempted to escape or ignore my problems, but now they are becoming too much to handle.

And I tried to warn you don't get in my way when it's purely business
If someone interferes with my money and work, I am not afraid to push back or take action.

And I've had a feelin' for ya
I have romantic or emotional feelings for someone.

You can smell the green on me now
Recent success or wealth is evident through my new attitude or possessions.

And I'm about to light it up
I am ready to celebrate or enjoy my new success and the newfound attention it brings.

At least she's still rolling for me now
Despite some negative aspects of this situation, I still have support from the woman mentioned earlier.

Can you stay with me till the end?
I am making a request for someone to stay by my side and support me throughout my journey.

I wanna show you off this, til i die
I am excited to share and showcase my success with this person for the rest of my life.

Look what im doing it's almost banned
My actions or work may be considered controversial or unique compared to others in my field.

I'm not a lying i'm on a skyline
I am not bluffing, and my success has taken off significantly.

So many hobbies from the music i go
I have many interests or hobbies, and a lot of them overlap with my passion for music.

So we are top 3 in like chicago
My music or work is highly regarded and respected within certain communities and regions.

I'm so sorry I don't know who it is
I am unaware or indifferent to who may dislike me or not support my work.

Nobody like us just curious
I am proud of my uniqueness and distinct personality, even if it sets me apart from others.

Yeah I'm a MF independent
I am completely independent and self-sufficient as an artist.

I'm never gonna depend on it
I will never rely on anyone else or any external factors to achieve success.

You so afraid of me
Others may be intimidated or fearful of my success and status.

Ya already know they'll be feeding me
Despite any negativity or opposition, I am confident in my success and that it will continue.

Stay true
I end the song like I started, reminding myself to remain authentic to who I am as a person.
