Discontinuing Wokhardt Lyrics – Lil Durk

Discontinuing Wokhardt Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The intro just emphasizes the production team behind the track, 808 Mafia.

[Verse]
In this verse, Lil Durk talks about how fame has changed the way people treat him, making him feel isolated even though he’s seen as a celebrity. He opens up about using syrup (lean) instead of ecstasy to cope with stress, which is taking a toll on his health. Durk expresses betrayal by those he once loved and reflects on how his father’s gang ties shape his respect for their legacy. He points out that people criticize him, but they haven’t carried the same burden of responsibility for their family like he has. His brother, who’s also involved in the streets, has made a lot of money—symbolized by having “more strips than a referee.” Durk flaunts his wealth with his bulletproof SUV, but despite the money and fame, he’s still battling internal struggles and grief over lost loved ones, especially Dthang. He feels conflicted, wanting to go back to his old life, causing chaos in the streets. Durk mentions friends who have faced legal troubles and paid for their defense by hustling. His frustration with fake gangsters who work with the police and his loyalty to his crew, “Only the Family,” is clear. He also admits to his difficulty breaking away from drügs, falling into relapse after trying to stop. Durk grieves the loss of close friends, and his anger drives him to want revenge, feeling that violence is his only outlet.

[Chorus]
The chorus details Durk’s emotional journey through the week. He starts by focusing on his music and the street business with his friends, but midweek, tragedy strikes, as he receives news that someone close to him has been killed. This news haunts him throughout the week. By Friday, Durk treats himself to luxury—a Maybach—yet the tension remains. Saturday brings a sense of danger, highlighting how fragile life is in his world. Sunday is not peaceful for him; it feels dark and hopeless as he battles the irritation from withdrawing from Wockhardt, a type of cough syrup with codeine, used recreationally.

[Bridge]
Durk expresses the overwhelming silence and disorientation he feels when his pill drops. He hates going through withdrawal from the drügs, and although his friend is tough, he’s been affected as heavily as something like fentanyl.

[Chorus]
In the chorus, Durk repeats the story of his week. He spends Monday recording music, focused on his art, and Tuesday talking business with his friends who are handling illegal activities. Wednesday, Durk’s world falls apart when he learns someone close has been killed, and the pain lingers into Thursday. By Friday, he shows off his success with a luxury Maybach but can’t escape the looming sense of danger. Saturday is tense, with the reminder that he needs to stay armed for his own safety. Sunday feels dark, representing his struggle with drug withdrawal and frustration after discontinuing Wockhardt.

[Outro]
Durk reflects on how disconnected he feels, as if the effects of his drügs are fading and he’s losing touch with everything around him, feeling numb and unable to hear others.
