This track delves into the struggles and changes experienced by an individual who has achieved fame and wealth. The artist grapples with his evolving identity, stating he's not the same person he once was due to his new lifestyle. He highlights the irony of success, as it simultaneously brings wealth and induces feelings of isolation and estrangement. The repeated line "Shame on you" seems to be a critique towards those who fail to understand his journey or judge him for changing. Despite the challenges, he remains determined, pushing through obstacles while acknowledging that success can lead to a distorted perspective on life. In essence, this song is a candid exploration of the personal cost of fame and success.
Hurt Feelings
Lyrics
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Well, okay
I'm always sayin' I won't change but
I ain't the same
Everything is different, I can't complain
Don't know what you missin'? Shame on you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Shame on you
Everything is strange, that's just a game
Everybody trippin', thrown it away
We was getting lifted, now we getting paid
Shame on you
I pay the cost to see apostrophes
That means it's mine, keep it myself, taking my time
Always into some bullshit, and out of line
Driving with my eyes closed, missing all the signs
Turn the ignition, I'm driven and sittin' pretty
Listenin' to Whitney and whippin' it through the city yeah
Man on a mission, figure it out
Putting way too much on my shoulders, please hold me down
I keep my head above the water (water)
My eyes is gettin' bigger, so the world is gettin' smaller (smaller)
I've been getting richer but that only made me crazy
Mama told me I was different even when I was a baby
That Mercedes through the PA when I pull up, sounded like a concert
Or a, or a monster truck, I'm trippin' but I'm falling up
I always said I want it all, but it's not enough
O-kay
I'm always sayin' I won't change but
I ain't the same
Everything is different, I can't complain
Don't know what you missin'? Shame on you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Shame on you
Everything is strange, that's just a game
Everybody trippin', throwing it away
We was getting lifted, now we getting paid
Shame on you
We only just begun
No, we don't wanna hurt your feelings
I was only just begun
No, we don't wanna
Hurt (hurt) feelings (feelings)
Down go the system, long live the king
Turn the power off and get your water from the spring
I'm bringing everyone with me when shit get iffy
I give a hundred and fifty percent
This is the shit that I'm dealing with, but I wish I forget
Used to be feelin' depressed, now that I'm living and I'm a little obsessed
Yes, high in Jacuzzi's I been hitting the jets
I'm showing her some love she been givin' me sex
Respect the outline, don't fuck around and be the victim of your pride
Why you lyin'? (Why you lyin'?) Tell the truth and step aside
I don't got the time to let it slide (yep)
I'm too grounded, push whips that move mountains, new crib, blue fountains
These are my surroundings
I've been going through it, you just go around it
But it's really not that different when you think about it
I'm always sayin' I won't change but
I ain't the same
Everything is different, I can't complain
Don't know what you missin'? Shame on you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Shame on you
Everything is strange, that's just a game
Everybody trippin', thrown it away
We was getting lifted, now we getting paid
Shame on you
Hurt
Feelings
