My Ordinary Life Lyrics
They tell me keep it simple.
I tell them take it slow.
I feed and water an idea so I let it grow.
I tell them take it easy.
They laugh and tell me no.
It's cool but I don't see them laughing at my money, though.
They spittin' facts at me.
I'm spittin' tracks, catch me?
I'm spinnin' gold out my records, know you can't combat me.
They tell me jesus walks.
I tell them money talks.
Bling got me chill, 'cause I'm living in an ice box.
They tell me I've been sleepin'.
I say I'm wide awake.
Tracks hot and ready, so they call me Mr. E-Z Bake.
They say the grass is greener.
I think my grass is dank.
Drivin' with a drank on an empty tank to the bank.
Do you feel me? Take a look inside my brain.
The people always different but it always feels the same.
That's the real me. Pop the champagne.
The haters wanna hurt me and I'm laughin' at the pain.
Stayin' still. Eyes closed.
Let the world just pass me by.
Pain pills. Nice clothes.
If I fall, I think I'll fly.
Touch me, Midas.
Make me part of your design.
None to guide us.
I feel fear for the very last time.
They tell me that I'm special.
I smile and shake my head.
I'll give them stories to tell friends about the things I said.
They tell me I'm so humble.
I say I'm turning red.
They let me lie to them and don't feel like they've been misled.
They give so much to me.
I'm losing touch, get me?
Served on a silver platter, ask for seconds, they just let me.
They tell me I'm a god.
I'm lost in the facade.
Six feet off the ground at all times, I think I'm feelin' odd.
No matter what I make.
They never see mistakes.
Makin' so much bread, I don't care that they're just bein' fake.
They tell me they're below me.
I act like I'm above.
The people blend together, but I would be lost without their love.
Can you heal me? Have I gained too much?
When you become untouchable, you're unable to touch.
Is there a real me? Pop the champagne.
It hurts me just to think and I don't do pain.
Stayin' still. Eyes closed.
Let the world just pass me by.
Pain pills. Nice clothes.
If I fall, I think I'll fly.
Touch me, Midas.
Make me part of your design.
None to guide us.
I feel fear for the very last time.
Lay still. Restless.
Losing sleep while I lose my mind.
All thrill. No stress.
All my muses left behind.
World is below.
So high up I'm near divine.
Lean in. Let go.
I feel fear for the very last time.
I tell them take it slow.
I feed and water an idea so I let it grow.
They laugh and tell me no.
It's cool but I don't see them laughing at my money, though.
I'm spittin' tracks, catch me?
I'm spinnin' gold out my records, know you can't combat me.
I tell them money talks.
Bling got me chill, 'cause I'm living in an ice box.
I say I'm wide awake.
Tracks hot and ready, so they call me Mr. E-Z Bake.
I think my grass is dank.
Drivin' with a drank on an empty tank to the bank.
The people always different but it always feels the same.
The haters wanna hurt me and I'm laughin' at the pain.
Let the world just pass me by.
Pain pills. Nice clothes.
If I fall, I think I'll fly.
Make me part of your design.
None to guide us.
I feel fear for the very last time.
I smile and shake my head.

Add your song meanings, interpretations, facts, memories & more to the community.
I think this song tells about the people around becaouse it is describing how some people therat others.
The song is about The Living Tombstone being praised as a god and acts like he is above other people because they forgot that he is an ordinary person
I think it's meaning is about someone getting depressed due to losing his own identity due to them being too popular, causing them to commit suicide (as seen with the final chorus section) the person clearly has trouble even sleeping or even thinking just because of this, and he's been trying to cope with "pain pills and nice clothes" but that didn't help with the situation. The protagonist (probably TLT themselves) clearly wants to stop this whole charade but it won't stop.
I like to think that the song is surrounding a villain, he would be the protagonist in this case, he’s ruled the world for so long that it’s seeming to get boring and he is starting to go insane. The song is separated into three parts being separated by:
Stayin' still, eyes closed Let the world just pass me by Pain pills, nice clothes If I fall I think I'll fly Touch me, Midas Make me part of your design None to guide us I feel fear for the very last time
The first part talks about how he is invincible. Eg: 1.They spittin' facts at me, I'm spittin' tracks, catch me? I'm spinning gold out my records know you can't combat me They tell me Jesus walks, I tell them money talks Bling got me chill, 'cause I'm living in an ice box
The second part talks about how he realises and copes with going to insanity. Especially this part: 1.Can you heal me? Have I gained too much? When you become untouchable you're unable to touch Is there a real me? Pop the champagne It hurts me just to think and I don't do pain
Then the final part is simple yet deep concluding the song and the protagonist’s life with suicide: Lay still, restless Losing sleep while I lose my mind All thrill, no stress All my muses left behind (left behind) World is, below So high up, I'm near divine (I'm so high up) Lean in, let go I feel fear for the very last time
