I Feel Like Dying

Lil' Wayne

Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
(I feel like, I feel like, I feel like)

I am sittin' on the clouds
I got smoke comin' from my seat
I can play basketball with the moon
I got the whole world at my feet
Playin' touch football, on marijuana street
Or, in a marijuana field, you are so beneath my cleets
Get high, so high, that I feel like lying
Down in a cigar, roll me up and smoke me 'cause
(I feel like dying)

Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
(I feel like, I feel like, I feel like)

Swimming laps around a bottle of Louis the Thirteenth
Jumpin' off of a mountain into a sea of Codeine
I'm at the top of the top, but still I climb
And if I should ever fall
The ground would then turn to wine
Pop, pop, I feel like flying
Then I feel like frying, then
(I feel like dying)

Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
(I feel like, I feel like, I feel like)

I can mingle with the stars
And throw a party on Mars
I am a prisoner, locked up behind Xanax bars
I have just boarded a plane, without a pilot
And violets are blue, roses are red
Daisies are yellow, the flowers are dead
Wish I can give you this feeling, I feel like buying
And if my dealer don't have no more, then
(I feel like dying)

Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying

    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'm going to say though that maybe the message is just to enjoy/stick with weed; maybe referring to coke as the "drugs" and the feeling of wanting to die when the drugs "are done". (A sober state.)

    The song's about Lil Wayne taking drugs because when he's sober he's depressed

    The Part where the girl says "Only once the drugs are done, that I feel like dying" is sung by Karma, the sample is from the song "Once"

    I heard someone saying that this was about burying a girl or something? I wish I had been paying attention to that conversation.
