Downward Spiral Lyrics

I'm sweating like I'm in a rave
Been in this room for 3 days
Think I'm hearing voices
Paranoid and think I'm seeing ghost-es, oh shit
Phone keep ringing but I cut that shit off
Only time I use it when I tell the dealer drop it off
Had a threesome last night, ain't matter what it cost
Couldn't it get hard, tried to stuff it in soft
Had to fuck em both raw, keep my fingers crossed
Been grinding on my teeth so long it's swelling up my jaw
Nothing on but my bathrobe and pinky ring
Your worst nightmare for me is a normal dream
And if I learned anything
Is don't nod off with ya motherfucking cigarette burning
Knocking on my door but I won't answer
Residue on mirrors, Jojo dancer

And it's a downward spiral
Gotta figure it out (out)
I gotta figure it out (out)
I gotta figure it out
Cause it's the downward spiral
I gotta figure it out (out)
Gotta figure it out (out)
I gotta figure it out

Everybody say, you got a lot to be proud of
Been high this whole time, don't realize what I done
Cause when I'm all alone, feel like no one care
Isolate myself and don't go nowhere
Smoking blunt after blunt, 'til my eyes burning
Hennessy straight got my chest like a furnace
Drowning frustrations in a ocean of sin
Thinking irrational, I have no emotions
Cold cold world, some might say
Freezing on the snow, brain feel a bit frostbit
Nauseous, don't know the last time I ate
But I eat these fucking rappers like fucking last steak
On death row, feel like I'm Yams
You never know, one day you're here, the next you're gone
So I put it all up in these songs

And it's a downward spiral
Gotta figure it out (out)
I gotta figure it out (out)
I gotta figure it out
Cause it's the downward spiral
I gotta figure it out (out)
Gotta figure it out (out)
I gotta figure it out

What is the Meaning of Downward Spiral?

When life becomes a circus and you're the unicyclist balancing chaos, Danny Brown paints a vivid picture of battling inner demons in a kaleidoscope of madness. Here lies a tale of spiraling into the abyss, where phone calls get ghosted and dealer appointments become life’s highlights. Brown's in a haze of paranoia, frazzled desires, and uninvited specters, generating a symphony of chaos amidst a relentless rave of fantasies and frustrations. With jaw-clenching admissions and raw existential musings, he grapples with reality unlike anyone else. What’s heartbreakingly brilliant is the search for clarity in the swirling vortex of Hennessy and blunt smoke, aiming to stitch together sanity with every line. A chilling reminder from Brown: life's a wild ride—hold tight or get lost in the tunes.
