DOECHII – DENIAL IS A RIVER

Lyrics

Hey, I thought it was all over
What's up, Doechii?
Hey, girl
You know it's been a lil' minute since you and I have had a chat
Has it really?
Probably since like, your last EP, Oh The Places You'll Go
Oh wow, it's been a minute, yeah
I've been getting some calls
Oh?
People are a little bit worried about you
Not worried, okay
And I know that I was kinda that outlet for you, so...
You were
Why don't you just tell me what's been going on?
Okay
Remember old dude from 2019, nice clean nigga, did me dirtier than laundry
Took a scroll through his IG, just to get a DM from his wifey (What the fuck?)
I was so confused, what should Doechii do?
She didn't know about me and I didn't know 'bout Sue
I open up the messages then had to hit the zoom
Turns out the girl was really a dude? (Goddamn)
Nigga think he slicked back till I slipped back
Got my lick back, turned a nigga to a knick-knack
I moved on, dropped a couple of songs
And then I went and got signed, now it's 2021
Okay, I just feel like this is the perfect opportunity for us to just take a second and kind off unpack what's happened to you, you know, this guy cheated on you and–
Mm, nah, fuck it
"Platinum" record this, viral record that
I'm makin' so much money, I'm all over the net
I'm movin' so fast, no time to process
And no, I'm not in a gang but I'm always on set
Wrist watch, drip drop, labels want the TikToks, now I'm makin' TikTok music, what the fuck?
I need cleanse, need a detox, but we ain't got time to stop, the charts need us
(And they do)
Fast forward, me 2023
I'm stackin' lots of cheese and makin' money
My grass is really green, and honestly
I can't even fuckin' cap no more, this is a really dark time for me
I'm going through a lot
By a lot you mean drugs?
Um, I wouldn't–
Drugs?
No, it's a-
No?
It's a natural plant
No, I'm not judging
I'm not an addict
I'm just saying
I don't think–
You wanna talk about it?
Uh...
I mean fuck, I like pills, I like drugs
I like gettin' money, I like strippers, I like to fuck
I like day-drinkin' and day parties and Hollywood
I like doin' Hollywood shit, snort it, probably would
What can I say? The shit works, it feels good, and my self-worth's at an all time low
And just when it couldn't get worse, my ex crashed my place and destroyed all I owned
Whoopsie, made a oopsie
One-hundred thousand dollar "oops" made me loopy
I ain't a killer but don't push me
Don't wanna have to turn a nigga guts into soup beans
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Okay, Doechii, we don't wanna revert back to our old ways. So, we're gonna try a breathing exercise, okay?"
Sorry, alright, word
When I breathe, you breathe, alright? Let's go
Okay, okay

Paroles (Traduction)

Salut, je pensais que c'était fini
Quoi de neuf, Doechii ?
Salut, fille
Tu sais, ça fait un petit moment depuis qu'on a discuté, toi et moi
Vraiment ?
Probablement depuis ton dernier EP, Oh The Places You'll Go
Oh wow, ça fait un moment, ouais
J'ai reçu quelques appels
Oh ?
Les gens sont un peu inquiets pour toi
Pas inquiète, d'accord
Et je sais que j'étais un peu ton confident, donc...
Tu l'étais
Pourquoi ne me dis-tu pas ce qui se passe ?
D'accord
Tu te souviens du vieux de 2019, gars propre et sympa, m'a traitée pire que du linge sale
J'ai jeté un œil sur son Instagram, juste pour recevoir un message de sa femme en DM (Qu'est-ce que c'est que ça ?)
J'étais tellement confuse, que devrait faire Doechii ?
Elle ne savait rien de moi et je ne savais rien de Sue
J'ai ouvert les messages puis j'ai dû zoomer
Il s'est avéré que la fille était en fait un mec ? (Putain)
Le mec pense qu'il est malin jusqu'à ce que je riposte
J'ai riposté, transformé un mec en bibelot
J'ai avancé, sorti quelques chansons
Et puis j'ai signé un contrat, maintenant on est en 2021
D'accord, je pense que c'est le moment idéal pour qu'on prenne un instant pour parler de ce qui t'est arrivé, tu sais, ce mec t'a trompée et–
Mm, non, laisse tomber
Disque "Platine" par-ci, record viral par-là
Je gagne tellement d'argent, je suis partout sur le net
Je bouge si vite, pas le temps de réfléchir
Et non, je ne suis pas dans un gang mais je suis toujours en tournage
Montre au poignet, goutte de style, les labels veulent des TikToks, maintenant je fais de la musique TikTok, c'est quoi ce bordel ?
J'ai besoin d'une purification, d'une
