RED CROSS Lyrics – Bladee

[Intro]
(Game!)
Huh

[Chorus]
Stop all that talking, can’t you see, I’m in the night often (Ah)
Leaves fall in the fall, it’s a nice evening
I make the summer freezing (Ah)
I’m hooked up on a feeling
Creeping late after 8, yeah, the 9 all the time
See that black crow fly, smoking drain, so high
Red cross at the top, yeah, this drain s*it, it don’t stop (Ah)
We’re 360 on the clock, really, everything you’re not
There’s no windows in the spot
There’s no innocence in us
We’re the realest in a sense, I don’t want friends
Tinted windows on the Benz, we’re with wizards in it
Treat this talking like a well, throw your wishes in it (Ah)

[Verse]
3 stars, moving militant
Collect from many men, s*it, we want them millions
Red cross (Red), we on that hill again
We at the top floor of the Hilton with little to no feelings
Hoodie on, I’m a civillian, Oakleys on like a Brazillian
No gravity in the building, we all up in the ceiling
Chandelier on my wrists, it’s evident we mean business
In the mall swiping cards
Decisions, decisions
Crocodile Dundee, alligator skin all over me
I’m having superiority, get all your sin away from me
I’ve had enough, this s*it boring me
It’s time for another story
I’ve been feeling immortal
I straight drop paranoia
Backpack on like I’m Dora
I start feeling important
I started moving major, I’m in immediate danger
So cold, our reality is blueberry flavoured
It’s 9 PM in the morning, I’m on the court scoring

[Chorus]
Stop all that talking, can’t you see, I’m in the night often (Ah)
Leaves fall in the fall, it’s a nice evening
I make the summer freezing
I’m hooked up on a feeling
Creeping late after 8, yeah, the 9 all the time
See that black crow fly, smoking drain, so high
Red cross at the top, yeah, this drain s*it, it don’t stop (Ah)
We’re 360 on the clock, really, everything you’re not

[Outro]
There’s no windows in the spot
There’s no innocence in us
We’re the realest in a sense, I don’t want friends
Tinted windows on the Benz, we’re with wizards in it
Treat this talking like a well, throw your wishes in it
(Three Star)

[Intro]
The brief “Game!” followed by an exclamation and an interjection “Huh” sets a tone of engagement, signaling the start of a narrative or an intense experience.

[Chorus]
Bladee describes his nocturnal lifestyle, where he finds solace and familiarity in the darkness. The mention of leaves falling evokes the autumn season, symbolizing change and transition. He contrasts the freezing summer, indicating a personal detachment from warmth and joy. The repetition of being “hooked up on a feeling” suggests an addiction or reliance on certain emotions or substances. The imagery of a black crow flying high while smoking drain alludes to a sense of elevated detachment from reality. The “Red cross” symbolizes both addiction and opulence, showing a paradoxical relationship with substances. Bladee asserts his uniqueness, rejecting societal norms and friendships, preferring isolation in his Benz with tinted windows, accompanied only by his chosen companions, symbolically likened to wizards.

[Verse]
Bladee references his pursuit of wealth (“them millions”) with a militant determination, symbolized by the three stars. The “Red cross” motif recurs, signifying the continuous pursuit of substances despite being on top of the hill again, suggesting a cyclical struggle. He describes being emotionally numb at the Hilton, emphasizing his detachment from conventional emotions. Adorned in luxury items like Oakleys and chandelier-like jewelry, he portrays an image of power and opulence. Despite material success, he feels bored and superior, longing for excitement and significance, hence seeking out new stories and experiences. The reference to paranoia and feeling immortal suggests a heightened sense of awareness and invincibility amidst danger and uncertainty, depicted through surreal imagery like blueberry-flavored reality.

[Chorus]
The chorus revisits Bladee’s nocturnal lifestyle, emphasizing his comfort and preference for the night over the day. He maintains his detachment from conventional pleasures and societal norms, embracing his unique experiences and perspectives. The imagery of the black crow and the recurring “Red cross” motif reinforces his affinity for darkness and substances, symbolizing his ongoing struggle with addiction and detachment.

[Outro]
The outro reinforces Bladee’s rejection of innocence and societal norms, asserting his authenticity and refusal to conform. The mention of tinted windows on the Benz symbolizes his desire for privacy and exclusivity, accompanied by his chosen companions, who are likened to wizards. He encourages others to share their desires and wishes, suggesting a sense of camaraderie amidst their shared experiences and struggles. The repetition of “Three Star” and the countdown further emphasizes a sense of urgency and determination in their pursuit of significance and fulfillment.
