You did good Slick
It’s a smash
Had to go back out west
Yeah, fuck it
Let’s get it
Yeah

The introduction sets the scene, acknowledging the success of the person addressed as “Slick” and expressing excitement and confidence about the upcoming venture, potentially heading back out west.
[Chorus]
Had to go back out west
Had to keep my bags light
Chemicals in my psyche (My psyche)
Why this shit feel so right? (So right)
She was up in my arms
Now she up on a flight
Said you will never leave my side (My side)
Said it was to the grave, yeah
I been tryna change my ways
Swear, I been tryna change my life (My life)
They don’t know what it’s like (They don’t)
Laying awake all night, yeah
Runnin’ away from love (From love)
Runnin’ straight to my cup (My cup)
Time to head back out west (Out west)
Maybe I’ll be in touch
[Explanation of Chorus]
The chorus reflects on the decision to return to the western part of the country. It mentions the need to travel light and the presence of chemicals in the narrator’s psyche, conceivably suggesting to substance use. Despite potential challenges, the decision to go back out west feels right. The lyrics allude at a once relationship, with someone going from being in the narrator’s arms to being on a flight. The commitment is expressed with the phrase “to the grave,” and the narrator acknowledges efforts to change their ways and life. The struggles with love, staying awake at night, and seeking solace in substances like alcohol are evident.
[Verse]
Yeah, covered my heart in gold
Put a smilе on for the shows
When they ask mе how I’m doin’, never been happier I’m told
They tryna bring me home, I just need one more high (Let’s go)
Promise it’s not a lie when I say I’m done forever this time ?[]
I got pain inside, but feel like why, why should I cry?
Thinkin’ about my dead homies like why, why didn’t I die?
How can I feel love when I can’t even feel okay?
How can I feel anything when I, I can’t feel my face?
Givin’ away my heart, ayy, prolly ain’t too much left
But for you, I’d give my last piece, don’t need none for myself
Drinkin’ my way to Hell, tryna find my way to Heaven
So make this moment count, I could be gone at any second
Doc going through my wreckage, hopin’ he find a message
But every time we talk, I’m only left with just more questions
Emotionally never present
Do I hide or grab my weapons?
Only peace I know is when I’m high or in the desert
[Explanation of Verse]
The verse delves into the narrator’s emotional state and experiences. There’s a portrayal of putting on a happy face for public appearances despite underlying pain. There’s a struggle with feeling love and a numbness that prevents emotional connection. The narrator wrestles with the idea of mortality, looking the prospect of death and disputing why they are still quick when others have passed away. The journey is described as drinking one’s way to Hell while trying to find a way to Heaven. The urgency to make every moment count and the vulnerability of life are highlighted.
[Chorus]
Had to go back out west
Had to keep my bags light
Chemicals in my psyche (My psyche)
Why this shit feel so right? (So right)
She was up in my arms
Now she up on a flight
Said you will never leave my side (My side)
Said it was to the grave, yeah
I been tryna change my ways
Swear, I been tryna change my life (My life)
They don’t know what it’s like (They don’t)
Laying awake all night, yeah
Runnin’ away from love (From love)
Runnin’ straight to my cup (My cup)
Time to head back out west (Out west)
Maybe I’ll be in touch
[Explanation of Chorus]
