| Kid Cudi – Alive (Nightmare) (feat. Ratatat) Lyrics | 14 years ago |

I think alot of people are looking too in depth for this one. "My skin is burning when my rock begins to speak" "I'm feeling stronger, more alert, I'm on the move" "smell her scent and I know I will find her soon" "I'm on the prowl and I'm hoping to find some light" "A sexy lady who's pure, she has the cure, uh" Kid Cudi is speaking about cocaine. -Skin burning- side effects of cocaine- he even references the word rock in this line -smell her scent- means that he sniffs cocaine -Im on the prowl- means that he just like a typical addict is searching for his drug/cocaine and this drug gives him light/enlightenment when he uses it -a sexy lady whos pure, she has the cure- references cocaine again and wants the pure kind because it is like a remedy for his pain and desire. |

| Kid Cudi – Solo Dolo (Nightmare) Lyrics | 14 years ago |
|
So Im going to try to tackle this from beginning to end of lyrics: Hes alone from society but seems fine with it. His exterior looks seems normal and sane to those viewing him. But inside he's in constant turmoil from his inner thoughts that are never ending. His turmoil seems to comfort him though.- He tends to combat his inner demons that have run his life for years, hence its hard to be good idea.He would like to have peace from his turmoil, not the adjusting peace like he has, but the type in which he blocks himself from outside pressures that cause it. But theres no way to mask who he really is inside which is "solo dolo"- we will get to what that means at the end... -he is not sure who he may be to others. Friend or foe. Either way hes judged and at times a friend can be a foe. hes been double crossed before. And therefore he doesnt know who he really is to people. - He has his ups and downs hence the contant cycle as the world turns repeatedly.But it doesnt affect him like it use to because he is now accustomed to it.Those who know his struggles can relate to him, therefore he in a way is normal.He reminisces on how he couldnt be protected by forces of the world and its cruelty- "igloo"Those forces helped mold him to who he is now. Hes stronger and in a way untouchable since he has hardened himself using his own inner turmoils to protect him...so now the question who is "mr solo dolo"..think about it.. kid cudi is alone but has himself- hes in a way two different people- part of him who use to care what people thought of him and theres himself now that doesnt give a fuck. hes there to protect himself.. hence the reference he makes about "me outcast, no not the duo"..solo duo- he changes it to solo dolo- this my interpretation. |
