Story Lyrics – Fireboy DML, Take a Daytrip

Story Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
He’s just setting the vibe here — a kind of emotional check-in, saying “this is my life,” with a calm, personal tone. The mention of Daytrip signals their signature production touch.

[Pre-Chorus: Fireboy DML]
Here, Fireboy is basically saying he’s in his own lane right now, riding a good wave of energy and doesn’t want any negativity messing that up. He’s choosing to live life the way he wants and isn’t paying attention to gossip or outside opinions. He knows when things get confusing or tough, he can still rely on his own inner strength to guide him. The overall vibe is about protecting his peace and doing what feels right for him.

[Chorus: Fireboy DML]
He’s calling out people who try to twist his narrative or tell his story in a way that doesn’t reflect who he really is. But he gives credit to the ones who truly understand him. He knows he’s walking a unique path and even though some want to break him down, he refuses to let them win. He insists on owning his story and telling it his way.

[Verse 1: Fireboy DML]
He’s reflecting on his journey so far, saying he’s been grinding for five years and while the money or success might not be huge yet, people know who he is now. He’s been hustling for a long time — this isn’t overnight. From the streets to the studio, he figured things out on his own and always stayed real, even if others didn’t see the pain behind it. He’s been consistent, showing up every single day and putting in serious work. Despite any pressure, he stays cool and doesn’t let haters get the satisfaction of seeing him fall.

[Pre-Chorus: Fireboy DML]
Again, he’s repeating how he’s flowing with good energy and doesn’t want anyone messing with that. It’s his life, and he’s owning every moment. No matter what people say or what’s going on around him, he focuses on his own light and keeps pushing forward with confidence and calm.

[Chorus: Fireboy DML]
Same message as earlier — some people are trying to mess with how his story is told, but he stays loyal to the people who truly get him. He knows his path is different and even though others try to bring him down, he won’t back down. He’s determined to be the one in control of his narrative.

[Bridge]
This part feels more emotional and chant-like. He’s pushing back on those who want to rewrite his story, while giving love to the people who really know him. He’s standing firm in his journey and repeating again — they can try, but he’s not backing down. He’s going to share his truth.

[Chorus: Fireboy DML]
Once more, he’s standing strong against people trying to rewrite his past or mess with his journey. He respects those who understand where he’s coming from. He knows he’s on his own path and won’t let anyone crush his spirit. Pressure doesn’t scare him — he’s calm and refuses to give people the joy of seeing him stressed. In fact, he flips it — saying if anything, he’ll be the one turning up the heat on them.
