Remembering MacMiller one year after his passing ❤️ Here are 10 lyrics that defined his career
behind the boards. Plagued by a noticeably more hoarse rapping tone than usual, the former Rostrum Records artist begins explaining to listeners that he plans on taking several risks with his career in the future, which he followed through with years later.
"Don't you ever wanna hide away/ Poseidon triumph in the eyes of rain / Won't give a f--k about tomorrow if I die today/ I'll greet the devil with a smiling face/ S--t, that God fellow may reside in space." - Mac kicks off his sophomore LP by looking inward into the depths of his psyche. The introspective-produced tune finds Miller adopting his menacing alter-ego of Delusional Thomas.
"I'm comin', knockin' on your door / Well, I'ma, I'ma maintain, I'm stayin' so high / Put the ladder all the way up 'til we touching the sky / And you know you're dead wrong, you're in love with a lie / All I, all I, all I wanna do is free your mind / "Ladders" serves as the midway point of Mac's latest studio album. Used as a metaphor, the ladder symbolizes Miller ascending through his life's journey.
"Can you please help me find my friend / I'll give you anything you need / Multiplied by ten / I heard he moved to a place where the time don't end / You don't need money / All you got is time to spend / Life is short, don't ever question the lengths." -was close with Mac for over a decade prior to his 2012 passing while studying abroad in Switzerland. The "REM" capitalization commemorates Reuben's initials on the somber song's title.
"No matter where life takes me, find me with a smile / Pursuit to be happy, only laughing like a child / I never thought life would be this sweet / It got me cheesin' from cheek to cheek."-"Best Day Ever" kicks off Mac's 2011 bubbly mixtape of the same name. The joyful track sets the tone for what's to come on the rest of the project. Mac wants listeners to always cast a happy and positive outlook onto every situation possible.
