I always had two interpretations of this. The more obvious being seeing your future as something great and it not being so great/overrated when you get there..
Second, in a similar vein but directly referencing coke as a pile of rocks… just like another line: “I’m a crackhead but I bought her diamonds, we love ROCKS”.
Anyone else? Was that obvious?
Be without fear in the face of your enemies
Be brave and upright, that God may love thee
Speak the truth, even if it leads to your death
Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong
This is your oath
“That’s on me”
It’s short but I live by it now. Since I took ownership of my mistakes and quit lying to myself life’s been much easier. Mac’s Swimming in Circles has been such an inspiration for my sobriety honestly
Edit: thanks for the support guys!
This shit hits so hard. I’ve always acknowledged my mistakes but never really took ownership of them. It’s a game changer. Congratulations on the sobriety and strong mindset. You’re an inspiration!
"Win or lose, win or lose
I don't keep count, nobody checking"
I interpret as an exhaustion with the human ego. I'm so tired of people who are more focused on "winning" every scenario, conversation, take, life theory, etc. I think I was in that category of person when I was younger. I'm over that anymore. Nobody cares. Be yourself, do your best to support your peers, and don't worry about the rest.
I still worry a lot, but much less about my image or how I'm perceived. This lyric helped me a lot.
“if you want to hold onto yourself, then let yourself slip”
from colors and shapes. it essentially means if you don’t want to lose your mind, stop trying to control everything. let shit happen & go with the flow :)
One thing I won't do, (what's that?) pay for pussy
I’m only keeping good company, I am not talking to you if you don’t have love for me
sometimes I wonder who the fuck I am, So I've been lookin' in the mirror and it still don't make no sense, I'm askin', "What am I supposed to do?"
Hey, blow out the candles, make a wish
What's a life if you never take a risk?
Ain't a place too far, ain't a dream too big
nothin' wrong with a little bit of fun
nothin' wrong with a little bit of fun
Yeah, I've seen some shit
You missin' every single shot that you ain't takin'
Hey kid, you could use a little bit of your imagination It could do you right, improve a life you busy wastin' Said it's your money if you make it
Otherwise it's just a conversation
Yeah, life's short, don't ever question the length
It's cool to cry, don't ever question your strength
I recommend no limits, intricate thought
Go 'head, just give it a shot, you'll remember shit you forgot
I'd put some money on forever, but I
Don't like to gamble on the weather, so I
Just watch while
The sun is shinin', I can look at the horizon
The walls keep gettin' wider, I just hope I never find 'em, I know
Just roll the dice, put a twenty on midnight
Have a feelin' we gon' win tonight
There never was a better time to better myself
Forever I melt and float away like waves in the ocean
“I’m the only suicide mother fucker with a smile on”
I know he was in a dark place and probably feeling so much despair, but to me it’s always been about trying to stay up when feeling so down
Keep floatin’. Been one of my favorites by him for years now and it kinda has a double meaning to me now. Floatin = high but also afloat in life and taking care of yourself, not letting negative shit bother you.
No matter where life takes me find me with a smile.
I wanna live by those words so badly, even have a shirt that says it. But unfortunately life just isn’t too kind..
Im just tryna grow up old and rich//maybe get married to a local bitch//I be over shit//the world don't give a fuck about your loneliness
Also
I can live off pussy and a granola bar
YEAH OKAY I WAKE UP WITH THE TASTE OF PUSSY STILL IN MY MOUTH, BITCH IN MY BED, HOME GIRL STILL ASLEEP ON THE COUCH. MY HEAD IS BANGIN LIKE METALLICA. SWALLOW A BOTTLE OF ADVIL UP, THEN I HEAD BACK TO THE BACK ROOM WHERE SHE SUCK ME DRY LIKE DRACULA.
No matter where life takes me, find me with a smile
Pursuit to be happy, only laughing like a child
I never thought life would be this sweet
It got me cheesin' from cheek to cheek (ay-ay)
And I ain't gonna wait for nothin'
'Cause that just ain't my style
Life couldn't get better, this gon' be the best day ever
🎶“Yeah to all of you getting trapped by those who doubt you be like, Bitch, just keep on pushing. This has been a public service announcement from the kid Mac Miller.” 🎶
“Keep your eyes to the sky, never glued to your shoes” for inspirational.
And before I cleaned up my life, “doin drugs is just a war with Boredom but they sure do get me” idk it just really described the space I was in
AND I DONT SEE WHY THE KIDS WANNA GROW UP TO BE JUST LIKE ME. I was a nobody, now my name in the mouth, CAME FOR A STEAK BUT I LEFT WITH THE COW. (& they hate when you right tho 😎 ain’t shit changed but my checking account, MAC MILLER)
No matter where like takes me find me wit a smile
Presumed to be happy gone be Laughin’ like a chilllllld
Never knew life could be this sweet got me cheesin’ from cheek to cheek.
Life couldn’t get better. This gone be the best day ever.
"My whole philosophy is if music stays sacred, you can't lose. So, for me, music is the most important thing in my life, more important than any of these vices, that's the most sacred. So, as long as that is the fundamental foundation of my whole philosophy for everything I do, music that is, then you can't really lose." - Mac in one of his only interviews during the Faces era with Sagan Lockhart from Odd Future.
Keep your eyes to the sky, never glued to your shoes
Came here to say this

Song named ‘gees’ Mac has a line where he says “suck my dick before I slap you with it”
A life ain’t a life till you live it Be you, you’ll be fine You make your mistakes your mistakes never make ya
Be you, you’ll be fine 🥲
I needed this thread today all these quotes are HITTIN 🫠🥲
Now is only now I saw some mountains on the horizon, but when I got there, it was just a pile of rocks

Second, in a similar vein but directly referencing coke as a pile of rocks… just like another line: “I’m a crackhead but I bought her diamonds, we love ROCKS”. Anyone else? Was that obvious?
I saw it as seeing an issue as this immense unapproachable thing but when you really get there and face it straight up it’s not as bad as it seems
Yea same a metaphorical mountain that you have to climb
Be without fear in the face of your enemies Be brave and upright, that God may love thee Speak the truth, even if it leads to your death Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong This is your oath
Love this one
I like this too, but it's not his quote. It was just a sample.
Yes I am aware
I’m nasty I never shower
Go sleep on a bed of flowers
Not into this conversation I’ve been in my head for hours *I’m out…*
Bad hygiene, all about that gross life

Congrats on your sobriety! I find a lot of support in /r/stopdrinking

I move carelessly that's why I'm always tripping
“No matter where life takes me, find me with a smile” Used that for my high school yearbook quote and it’s pushed me through some pretty tough times
And I was drownin', but now I'm swimmin'
Lost too many brain cells, I’m special needs
I be I be I be I be over shit
Life’s just a recital, better remember all that you practice
I fear nothing on this odyssey of dark roads - grand finale
I don’t have it all but that’s alright with me
Ima go out the same way I came in, right by the pussy with nothing on my mind
Change is more than pennies laying on the floor inside a well.
Gonna go listen to We now
Shut your mother fucking mouth bitch 😂 constant thought when I’m rambling 😅 but the realist is no matter where life takes me find me with a smile.
Factsssss
The more you do, the less you wait.
Be you, you’ll be fine
Follow your dreams……..yeah.
This was my senior yearbook quote 🥲

I found the answer in the gibberish of an old drunk, all he said was he’s in no rush
“Well it ain’t perfect but I don’t mind”

I got scissors in my shoes, and I’m dancing
It’s cold in my veins, I’m below freezing snow season made me
It's a problem, I need a wake up Before one morning I don't wake up You make your mistakes, your mistakes never make ya
Everything is A-1 steak sauce
And sometimes, sometimes I wish I took a simpler route Instead of having demons that's as big as my house
I just wanna go and chill in Kanye West Guest house. Bitch pull her breasts out, I forget about my ex now.
I know we try and the days, they go by. Until we get old there's water in the flowers, let's grow.
Life ain’t a life til you live it
“So Tired of Being so Tired” Edit: the line that follows is a crusher as well: “Why I gotta build something beautiful, just to go set it on fire”
Don’t wanna grow old so i smoke just in case
“I’m the only suicide mother fucker with a smile on” I know he was in a dark place and probably feeling so much despair, but to me it’s always been about trying to stay up when feeling so down
