Or maybe you still love it, but now you have a different perspective.

I love people being surprised by this song when a verse literally says ‘doing crystal meth will lift you up until you break’.

"It won’t stop, I won’t come down

I keep stock with the tick-tock rhythm

I bump for the drop, and then I bumped up

I took the hit that I was given, then I bumped again

Then I bumped again"

That entire verse, but honestly rereading the lyrics, I’m amazed that got radio play in the Bible belt. I know it did, because I heard it uncensored in southeastern Indiana.
