Trust
Mistah Kye Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You don't have voluntary control over these things
So we say it happens spontaneously
So when you go to sleep and you try to go to sleep
You interfere with this spontaneous process of going to sleep
Try to breathe, you know real hard
And you'll find you get balled up in your breathing
You gotta let go... and let it happen
You know what they say, you might as well trust a person for being themselves
Trust a snake to be a snake and bite but trust yourself to spot the fake
I been round so many snakes I bled, you live and you learn that's why I ain't dead
2 steps ahead Nah fuck that, you gotta stay 2 feet above or you're walking dead
Walking dead like clem martial artist on the mic spin domes like Jet Lei
Them man talk bout' love fuck trust well my tee's been brown cuh the bloods been dried up
I need trust way more than this love Cuh my heads fucked up so I'm living off pure lust
I can't trust no girl I just trust myself, she a villain in disguise coming like sawdust
Now I gotta hoover it up, I'm cleaning my canvas feel like a campaign
I'm really by myself in this ting and the A.I around me are driving me insane
Some say that I need me a doctor, well let them say it, cuh my skies really been grey
I gotta build this ting on my ones so I stand my ground all now I ain't seen face
Trust... You can't make this up
I came in this world on my own
Leave on my own, work on my own
Misunderstood cuh I'm real to the bone
MK, I gotta set my tone
I'll rise my chin double tap my nose
I know I'm 5'6 and they think I'm a kid
6'6 when I spit on the mic, I'm grown
Trust... You can't make this up
I came in this world on my own
Leave on my own, work on my own
Misunderstood cuh I'm real to the bone
MK, I gotta set my tone
I'll rise my chin double tap my nose
I know I'm 5'6 and they think I'm a kid
6'6 when I spit on the mic, I'm grown
There's no trust without you
So trust yourself before trusting a person
I been sitting in my room tryna figure this out
Just go with your gut cuh I swear that it's certain
Me I been hurting, my heads been turning
Me I'm fucked up but I guess I been learning
Heart ain't working, need some nursing
Fuck the world any bridge I'll burn it
There's no trust without you
So trust yourself before trusting a person
I been sitting in my room tryna figure this out
Just go with your gut cuh I swear that it's certain
Me I been hurting, my heads been turning
Me I'm fucked up but I guess I been learning
heart ain't working, need some nursing
Fuck the world any bridge I'll burn it
Let it burn like Usher cos pain hurts when it comes from a lover
It hurts too when it comes to your friends, gotta burn that bridge real quick don't stutter
I got guys that chill with guys that don't like me, oh shit duck down take cover
Shot in my shoulder, golden revolver... friendly fire best know I'm a soldier
And my cousin try fucking my ex, are you taking the piss? nearly had man jumping
I can't lie by the way that they spoke and the way that they, nope! man I saw that coming
But true say I ain't tryna go back to the way that I was, right now I'm crumbling
I wanna load up a gauge and slap mans face, doing that I ain't gaining nothing
I can't lie I'm nothing like these other guys...
I'm tryna better myself, I'm tryna better me... as a person
And a lot of people don't know who I am
They think they know me but MiSTah Kye is just a persona
Only I know my progress and I've come a long way from the person I used to be
Trust... You can't make this up
I came in this world on my own
Leave on my own, work on my own
Misunderstood cuh I'm real to the bone
MK, I gotta set my tone
I'll rise my chin double tap my nose
I know I'm 5'6 and they think I'm a kid
6'6 when I spit on the mic, I'm grown
There's no trust without you
So trust yourself before trusting a person
I been sitting in my room tryna figure this out
Just go with your gut cuh I swear that it's certain
Me I been hurting, my heads been turning
Me I'm fucked up but I guess I been learning
heart ain't working, need some nursing
Fuck the world any bridge I'll burn it
There's no trust without you
So trust yourself before trusting a person
I been sitting in my room tryna figure this out
Just go with your gut cuh I swear that it's certain
Me I been hurting, my heads been turning
Me I'm fucked up but I guess I been learning
Heart ain't working, need some nursing
Fuck the world any bridge I'll burn it
The lyrics to Mistah Kye's song Trust seem to focus on the topic of trust - specifically, how it can be difficult to trust others and that the best course of action may be to trust oneself. The beginning of the song provides a metaphor to illustrate this idea, discussing how breathing is an involuntary process that becomes difficult when one tries to control it too much. In a similar way, the song suggests that trying too hard to trust others can actually backfire and impede one's ability to trust. Instead, the song encourages listeners to trust themselves first and foremost.
The rest of the song delves into various experiences that have led Mistah Kye to be wary of trusting others. He discusses being around "so many snakes" he's been hurt in the past, but also references the importance of learning and growing from those experiences. He also touches on feelings of isolation and loneliness, but concludes the song by asserting his ability to trust himself and rise above these struggles.
Overall, it seems like the song is a personal reflection on the ups and downs of trusting others and the importance of trusting oneself first. It encourages the listener to be mindful of their own gut feelings and to embrace their own strengths in order to navigate difficult situations.
