Reaper Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I’m stuck in a room, I’m stuck in a tunnel
I’m stuck in a loop like a fish in a bubbl
ive me something to do, you’re only asking for trouble
I’m a fake, I’m a fool and it’s not even subtle
Every time I’m faded, I’m okay
Every day I’m wasted, it’s a good day
It’s all in my head, but that’s exactly the problem
That’s exactly the problem (That’s exactly the problem)
[Chorus]
Yeah, you’re not alone, I’m the reaper in your phone
Horsemen of the apocalypse, I’m your Al Capone
You’re addicted to the rap, yеah
Baby, I’m a consequence
Don’t act likе you forgot
[Bridge]
Don’t give me a chance ’cause I already blew it
Can’t remember the last time that I was lucid
I’m-I’m not on the fence, yeah, I’m ready to do it
I’m not on the fence, yeah, I’m ready to do it
You already know
It’s not the first time did you even learn?
Yeah, you love it, the gravel in your burns
Contortion is pinching the nerve
Through the dash like a bullet, headfirst
[Chorus]
Yeah, you’re not alone, I’m the reaper in your phone
Horsemen of the apocalypse, I’m your Al Capone
You’re addicted to the rap, yeah
Baby, I’m a consequence
Don’t act like you forgot
[Verse 2]
You already know, you can’t hide it like blood in the snow
I’m the monster that’s screaming down your neck
But you like it, you’re fu*ked in the head (Head)
Try to fight it, if you have the guts
You’re outnumbered, you’ll never be enough
Give up, man, you’re already dead (Dead, dead)

Reaper Lyrics Meaning
[Verse 1]
He describes feeling trapped mentally, like there is no way out and everything repeats again and again. Life feels small and closed off, and boredom mixes with self blame. He sees himself as fake and foolish, aware of his flaws but unable to fix them. Using substances or distractions makes things feel easier for a moment, so numbness starts to feel normal and even comforting. The problem is that all of this is happening inside his own thoughts, which makes it harder to escape. He understands that his mind is creating the trap, but knowing that does not stop the cycle, and that realization only adds to the frustration.
[Chorus]
This part shows him as a dark influence living in your phone and music, reminding you that you are not alone in these feelings. He compares himself to powerful, dangerous figures to show temptation and chaos, and points to addiction and consequences that quietly pull people back.
[Bridge]
Here he admits he has already messed things up so many times that he does not trust himself with another chance. His mind feels foggy, and being clear or present feels rare. He sounds decided and reckless, ready to jump into harmful choices without hesitation. There is frustration about repeating the same mistakes and not learning from the pain. The pain itself almost becomes familiar, even attractive, like something he leans into. The images suggest rushing forward without thinking, choosing intensity over safety, and letting self destruction take control instead of slowing down and pulling back, when everything inside feels loud and out of control, and he stops caring about the outcome.
[Chorus]
This part shows him as a dark influence living in your phone and music, reminding you that you are not alone in these feelings. He compares himself to powerful, dangerous figures to show temptation and chaos, and points to addiction and consequences that quietly pull people back.
[Verse 2]
This section turns more aggressive and honest about the struggle. He says the darkness is obvious and impossible to hide, and that it stays close, constantly whispering. Even though it is harmful, there is a twisted comfort in it. Fighting back feels pointless because the problem feels bigger than one person. The lines express exhaustion, self hatred, and the feeling of already being defeated, like the battle was lost before it even truly started, leaving him feeling trapped with no strength left.
