In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Send me the location
Nobody gotta know just don’t discuss our situation
She asked me what we are I told little baby have some patience
Cause I’m living how I live don’t wanna raise her expectations
Said I’m Satan cause I’m playing baby girl I gotta play it right
Money different colors like monopoly my flavors right
And I got a shawty coming over you can’t stay the night
I don't do relations I’m flirtatious I won’t say it twice
Damn
Why you ain’t tell me you had feelings for me
I only fucked you cause I thought you wouldn’t get them for me
You said you had them for a minute didn’t hear this story
I be in my own Lanez and no you can’t compare to Tory
No you can’t get near my glory
Gotta win its mandatory
Ain't have a pot to piss so I just go and mark my territory
Talking tough I’ll air the 40
I’ll hit you and spare the shorty
Niggas with me when it’s sunny never when the air is stormy
Damn
Ain’t nothing new because I been the man
I use to hit it before I rapped because she been a fan
And we just took a couple losses but we’ll win again
All this ice be cooling down the room shit like a ceiling fan
I be with some niggas keep it cool cause they move dangerous
Smell the pack all on me she addicted to my fragrance
She know a lot of artists but my music is her favorite
...
Damn
Don’t got a hook cause I’m just popping shit
You playing round we got some rounds we got a lot of it
Come to the block we send some shots and that boy dodging it
You gonna have to pay me to end beef cause I ain't squashing it
Tryna make a call to Heaven
Just to hear my grandma voice
God gave me this rapping blessing
Feel like I aint have a choice
I be in the stu I’m stepping
Guess I’m lucky triple seven
Guess I had to learn my lesson
Gotta win it ain’t no question
Send me the location
Nobody gotta know just don’t discuss our situation
She asked me what we are I told little baby have some patience
Cause I’m living how I live don’t wanna raise her expectations
Said I’m satan cause I’m playing baby girl I gotta play it right
money different colors like monopoly my flavors right
And I got a shawty coming over you can’t stay the night
I don't do relations I’m flirtatious I won’t say it twice
Damn
Nobody gotta know just don’t discuss our situation

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
