About This Track

Rich Brian opens 'Amen' with a track that sets melancholy against bravado, the production slow and melodic whilst the lyrics swing between introspection and posturing. He begins with a surreal image – a car crash recalling a first date – and moves through a day spent deliberately alone, a rare departure for someone who admits he is never without company. The solitude does not unsettle him; he observes street violence without flinching, smokes when the mood takes him, calls his father for advice.

The second verse shifts gear into rapid-fire boasting, the flow tightening as he dismisses rivals and claims stamina both professional and personal. He notes his own contradictions: caring about everyone but himself, the burden of a Virgo temperament, a heart that weighs thirty kilos. The tone is self-aware without dwelling, the track moving quickly enough that neither the melancholy nor the swagger overstays its welcome.

"Cold" is a track by Rich Brian, from the album Amen, released 2nd February 2018. Full lyrics are available below.

Lyrics

Cold

[Verse 1]

Saw a car crash, it remind me of our first date

Then I went back, got massages at that one place

Always brought friends but today I feel like doin' this shit alone

Callin' my dad when I wanna hear some wisdom

Callin' my cab alcohol up in my system

Saw a fist fight and that shit don't even make me scared no more

Man, I never been the one to be alone

All my friends are always hittin' up my phone

Every day is spent with everybody, never on my own

But today I'm by myself and I don't even feel alone

Like to smoke cigs every time I feel the outside

Like to play chicks but get mad when they get new guys

You don't get me but I don't blame you, I don't get myself

Pressin' on keys, got my life so sweet man

GoFundMe on your bitch's pinned tweet man

Bumpin' oldies as I try to dick her down

She said give it to me now, and I can't help but listen

She go, "Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh"

Slippery sign all over my door

Show some attitude and bitch I won't show

Expectation high, I feel like a drone

2018, I got some new goals

Not checkin' my statement 'til I got 4 mill

Rushin' all year like I commit roadkill

Killin' everybody like I'm in a wrong deal

Do triple checks on every move I make

Work 'til I'm tired then sip on some latte

Only do shit if we do it my way

Everything gon' depend on what I say

3, 4

[Verse 2]

Ayy, hold up, wait a second

Man, my flow on lethal weapon

Hit 'em with the rhymin' pattern

Put these rappers under pressure

This feel like Armageddon

If she witcha I'ma get her

Cut you off like Jerry Heller

She gon' need another fella, ayy

I don't take drugs, I just take naps

Find another girl to eat up like I hate snacks

Dick gon' make her choke like reflux, gotta relax

Man, yo' shit is borin' and it's makin' me go sleep fast

And I always care 'bout everybody but myself

That's the life of a Virgo, never gettin' mad

That's not the Brian that we know

I just weighed my heart, it's about 30 kilos

I just fucked a lady and she 'bout 30 years old

Rappin' on this instrumentals, feelin' like a hero

Never usin' triplet flows because I'm not a Migo

Only lastin' longer 'cause I'm drunk, I don't think she knows

Only thing that matters that my dick is like my ego

[Outro]

They wishin' I'ma fail

These days, no picnics, ain't no fun and games

Still, motherfuckas always got a lot to say

Never got love, so they spreadin' all this hate oh, oh

Man they always actin' real tough

But I show up for a show and they just wanna leave town

People sayin' that my words are colder than the winter

It's Brian, not Brita, so I'll never have a filter

The sun don't impress him much.
