Full Of Smoke
Christion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴I'm the man today
Can't nobody tell me nothing
Got a hold on life
Taking each day by day
Being strong
Know just where I'm going to
As I get higher and higher
Dreams grow Visions flow by
This is as good as it gets
As I take another hit sugar
I can't stopI won't stop
Cause I'm too cool
And what they say is true
Ooh, I'm full of smoke
Watching my life go down
Down
Watching my life go down
Watching my life go down
Watching my life go down
Another day
Time just passes by me slowly
But I'm all right
You'll see
Faces in places catchin' different cases
Surroundings is glorified
Same situation nothing ever changes
Just being a bonafide hustler
Hustler baby
From day to night
Business is as good as it gets
As I take another hit
SugarI won't stop
I can't stop
Overall Meaning
The lyrics of Christion's song "Full of Smoke" depict a man who is confident and in control of his life, but is also struggling with addiction. He declares that he is the man today and nobody can tell him anything, indicating a sense of power and authority. He acknowledges that he has a hold on life, but also suggests that he is taking life one day at a time. He asserts that he knows where he is going and his dreams and visions are growing as he climbs higher.
However, the haunting chorus "Ooh, I'm full of smoke, watching my life go down" tells a different story. The repetition of the phrase "watching my life go down" emphasizes the feeling of helplessness that the man is experiencing. The smoke in the song is a metaphor for the addiction that has engulfed his life, slowly taking him down with each hit.
In the second verse, the man admits that time passes by slowly, but he feels alright. He describes how he is surrounded by people who have gotten caught up in different situations, yet they glorify their surroundings, despite the fact that nothing ever changes. He sees himself as a bonafide hustler, someone who is always working hard, day and night, but acknowledges that business is only as good as it gets when he takes another hit.
Overall, the lyrics of "Full of Smoke" paint a vivid picture of a man who struggles with addiction and is stuck in a cycle of self-destruction. Although he may feel confident and strong at times, his addiction ultimately consumes him in the end.
