Lyrics
Verse 1 Let me tell you a little story, one time online Went on Instagram with a killer fucking rhyme All done with my work, had to go berserk 'Bout to eat some food, watch the tube, or network Verse 2 But what about this jam? What about this cam? What about this plan I had to make a lot of fans? How they gonna find me if I spit it all silent? How they gonna mind bend if the talent is denied then? Chorus How they gonna hear me If I never make a sound? How they gonna feel me If these words don't come around? Verse 3 Sleep at night not feeling right, I wake with a startle Where the fuck am I? Why was I a turtle? Weird, man, just weird, man, don't understand Afghan Batman caravanning through Sudan Verse 4 With a suntan, Bran can beat flan, desert living Wasn't walking solo, he was feeding twenty women Hidden under hijab, moving tandem Metaphor? Could be… or maybe just random Chorus How they gonna hear me If I never make a sound? How they gonna feel me If these words don't come around? Bridge These lyrics on repeat, looping in my head You might not understand a single thing I said Outro Little story, one time told In between the quiet and the scroll
Interpretation
The tension between creative impulse and visibility anxiety. The speaker has something to say but questions whether silent talent counts if no one hears it. The middle verses dissolve into surreal dream imagery—turtles, Afghan Batman, caravans through Sudan—as if the unconscious is processing the absurdity of wanting to matter in an endless scroll. The chorus keeps returning: how will they hear me if I never make a sound? The outro lands quietly: a little story, told once, somewhere between silence and the scroll. Emotional arc: creative urgency → visibility anxiety → absurdist dreaming → looping uncertainty → quiet resolve.
