verse 1 I think I got too many memories getting in the way of me I'm about to go Tonya Harding on the whole world's knee And I'm stuck, night vision So stuck night vision But I come to life, come to life Pre-Chorus Some princes don't become kings Even at the best times I'm out of my mind You only get what you grieve Are you smelling that shit? Are you smelling that shit? N.C. Eau de résistance The only thing that's ever stopping me is me, hey The only thing that's ever stopping me is me, hey I testify if I die in my sleep Then know that my life was just a killer dream, yeah Instrumental: verse 2 Seems like the whole damn world went and lost its mind And all my childhood heroes have fallen off or died Fake tears, we are living fake tears But the alcohol never lies, never lies Pre-Chorus Some princes don't become kings Even at the best times I'm out of my mind You only get what you grieve Are you smelling that shit? Are you smelling that shit? N.C. Eau de résistance The only thing that's ever stopping me is me, hey The only thing that's ever stopping me is me, hey I testify if I die in my sleep Then know that my life was just a killer dream, yeah Then know that my life was just a killer dream, yeah I testify I testify Are you smelling that shit?

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque le fait de se sentir prisonnier de ses propres souvenirs, avec un mélange de désillusion et de détermination. L'artiste aborde les luttes internes et les obstacles que l’on se crée soi-même, tout en réfléchissant à la difficulté de devenir ce que l'on aspire à être. Il souligne également le constat amer que beaucoup de héros d’enfance ont perdu leur éclat ou ont disparu, et que les larmes que l’on verse sont souvent dérisoires face à la réalité de la vie. Le contexte pourrait tourner autour d'une époque où la confusion et la perte d'identité semblent omniprésentes, une sorte de critique de notre société actuelle qui peut parfois paraître absurde et superficielle. La chanson capte cette lutte entre nos aspirations et la dureté du quotidien.
