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.
I hit hoes and get triple crown-I spit ripple in they mouth-I Lean nipples out-now like the Colorado Rockies they stand proud-fucc excepting hand outs-when hoes see me they say O.M.G and put they hand on they mouth-I taught Cy Young how to pitch on the 4ever mound-I got factorys of cream like Almond Joy & Mounds-call me Peter Paul from the LAndtown-I pass hoes down like hand me downs-to my lil homies that's how I hold it down-I'm the King of the ring I inovated Pound for Pound-when I knock you out-revenge is the sound-that's heard out loud-from every town to town-I stay sharp and on point like Pelican Bay shanks-my cesspool is Salinas Valley Salad Bowl shark tanks-I'm on the edge like the percipepe-soon as I spit from the baby crib I painted lifes centerpiece-you gotta remember me-i'm the Forever King-that's 24-7 street-from the first 21 Jump Street-could be on the beat-my D.N.A 213-I sewed up the game with Blue Meang Trapstar Spider silk string-I'm to bitter sweet Apple Cider Spitter on ever beat-I'm too true so Blue Cantrail me-on every 211 Robbery-Jacking Spree-I'm slanging Black Tails-like crack pails-Big Mac tails-the biggest crack sales-I started the crack epidemic I got Ronald Crack Donaldmail-my buns and bread always have the most mayo-i'm one eye Willy like Houston-Third Eye Illuminati light jewels outshining the Astros in Houston-I spit rocket fuel then the whole Industry lifts off like Houston-Gold Mine shaft-in a Golden Coast bitch ass-3CPO my gold bullets-R2D2 when I pull it-they spin like ballerina tu tu's-just like them two two's-hoes fein until drool-cuz I'm way too cool-they drool like Haladol pools-cuz I got them on lock like the Old & New School-I'm the Dean-you want beef call me Jimmy Dean-Ima Giant my mini me James Dean-but I never crash-I'm never last-I Everlast-the best to pass-I'm way to advanced-I make the future look like the past-I leave your dreams shattered like Mr.Glass-I see thru everybody's ass like Windex on the crystal balls glass-my Derty Ferty guns out bark Cujo-I'm spitting bars call them Pruno-I'm King of the Uno-bigger then any and all Sumo's-

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
