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.
Run that back, Turbo
I just got ten million bucks for shit that I ain't even do yet
You spent your money but I ain't say I was your boo yet
You got your feelings hurt, I ain't really mean to do that
I'm just a bad bitch I'm sorry I put you through that
I'm from New York where we don't ever say "Good morning"
Rippin' the block and he ain't come home 'til the morning
I always prayed to have a building with a doorman
Now I'm so busy I gotta turn down these endorsements
Now I'm flaunting everything that I wanted
Remember a time when I couldn't even afford it
Now I'm in stores I get everything that fits me
Chanel mink slides and shades so they don't know it's me
Drip too hard, got his dick too hard
He gon' fuck around and drown off this wave
Pretty little toes stunting on these hoes
Buy another bag soon as I get paid
Bad little vibe, keep her by my side
Case a dirty bitch gotta catch this fade
Do it all the time, still I'm in my prime
Couple new blessings every time we pray
Uh, I'm still the same bitch from the city of the potholes
She say "oh, I got those", I said "No, it's not those"
I don't fuck with birds but you bitches on my cock though
If I want some chicken and waffles I go to Roscoe's
Cooler than the winter but I heat up like the summer
Fuckin' with my baby I'm a gunna
When I say baby I ain't talkin' 'bout Stunna
I'm talking 'bout lil like Weezy on the come-up
Drip too hard, got his dick too hard
He gon' fuck around and drown off this wave
Pretty little toes stunting on these hoes
Buy another bag soon as I get paid
Bad little vibe, keep her by my side
Case a dirty bitch gotta catch this fade
Do it all the time, still I'm in my prime
Couple new blessings every time we pray
Drip too hard, got his dick too hard
He gon' fuck around and drown
Pretty little toes stunting on these hoes
Buy another bag
Bad little vibe, keep her by my side
Case a dirty bitch gotta catch this fade
Do it all the time, still I'm in my prime
Couple new blessings every time we pray
Couple new blessings every time we pray
Every time we pray
Couple new blessings every time we pray
I just got ten million bucks for shit that I ain't even do yet
You spent your money but I ain't say I was your boo yet
You got your feelings hurt, I ain't really mean to do that
I'm just a bad bitch I'm sorry I put you through that
I'm from New York where we don't ever say "Good morning"
Rippin' the block and he ain't come home 'til the morning
I always prayed to have a building with a doorman
Now I'm so busy I gotta turn down these endorsements
Now I'm flaunting everything that I wanted
Remember a time when I couldn't even afford it
Now I'm in stores I get everything that fits me
Chanel mink slides and shades so they don't know it's me
Drip too hard, got his dick too hard
He gon' fuck around and drown off this wave

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.
