I Feel Like Dying Lyrics
It's about getting so high on so many different drugs that you feel like it's an endless ascent into ecstacy. And when you come down you look around and realize that that feeling is gone, and then you start thinking about everything that's gone wrong or could go wrong or is going wrong, and it turns into an endless trail of paranoia and depression that you're causing just by thinking. The obvious solution is to do more drugs or die. And when you can't get any all you want to do is die. Obviously.
As for you people saying the song is 'eerie', you clearly do not know how it feels to be in that position. Not accusing you of anything, just saying. I find it to be a beautiful song that reveals the thoughts of someone who is clearly on drugs as he writes. The first time I heard it I was high, and the way the song is setup sent me into a trail of words and knowledge that I didn't even know I had, because it was knowledge that I had read about and just forgotten. But even though I couldn't confirm it, I knew that it was all true, and as I analyzed my own thought process I reeled out all sorts of randomized thoughts that were connected only in a third section of my brain that was operating independently of the other two. I had so many thought processes going that I eventually forgot what I was thinking about and just wanted to listen to the song.
Favorite song to blaze to.
This song is about dying yes, and its about drugs yes. But this song actually talks about alot more, stuff tha you would only recognize if you had it in your life already.
This song remind me of "a scanner darkly", a great read, or if you dont like to read they made a kick-ass half-animated movie about it
This song is incredible. (obviously its about drugs. I had to say it though.) Drugs make you feel on top of the fxcking WORLD and when they go away you have nothing and you feel like dying.
When i first heard this song i was on my way to a drug deal with some friends and they played this (the base is incredible, by the way). What made the meaning of this song obvious was when the deal went bad and everyone in the car was pissed.
But the whole song is purely (and beautifully) metaphorical. Lil Wayne is not hiding secret messages that your supposed to find. He means he's getting high and it awesome. If he were to fall, even the ground would react to how monumentally stoned he is. And when its gone he feels like dying because nothing feels good.
Oh, and kamikaze-boy, I disagree with everything you just said. Especially the part about flowers. I call bullsh!t and implore you to NEVER try to analyze anything ever again. Thanks.
I love this song. One particular aspect that I love so much is how he never actually says "I feel like dying," but lets the recorded loop say it. To me its like how when having thoughts like that, its hard to say them out loud, even to yourself, and that you would rather someone else do it.
Drugs.....damn.
this really is a cry for help in my opinion. feeling like dying is obviously not something thats a good thing, especially when that person is relating that to the feeling when coming down from drugs. the whole chorus, and song at that, have a very eerie feel to it.
I love this song but it's really eerie..
this is onea my fav. songs by lil wayne but the song is talking about addiction, and what happens to him becaus eof his addiction
this song is definately about being addicted and slowly getting worse and worse into it. he starts talking bout smokin weed, and then eventually startes talking about getting into things like xanax which is no better than doing dope and how the withdrawls feel like dying
