My regrets look just like texts I shouldn't send

Life is the leading theme, tagged on 5 of 19 lines, followed by pain and struggle on 4 each. All but one are lyrics (18 against 1 interview), including REMember, Come Back to Earth, S.D.S., Weekend, I'll Be There and One Last Thing. The tone is gentle and self-aware: regrets that look like texts you shouldn't send, a reminder that it's fine to cry, and a sideways question about whether Christ made a million selling the cross. Fame and perseverance each show up on 3 lines.
Yeah, life's short, don't ever question the length
It's cool to cry, don't ever question your strength
People sellin' drugs 'cause they can't find no job
Wonder if Christ made a million off of sellin' the cross
And I was drownin', but now I'm swimmin'
It's a dark science when your friends start dyin'
Like, "How could he go? He was part-lion"
If I'm dyin' young, promise you'll smile at my funeral
Yeah, it's just a rule to follow
Take my time to finish, mind my business
A life ain't a life 'til you live it, I was diggin' me a hole
Big enough to bury my soul
Weight of the world, I gotta carry my own, my own
No matter where life takes me, find me with a smile
Pursuit to be happy, only laughin' like a child
I never thought life would be this sweet
It got me cheesin' from cheek to cheek, ayy, ayy

Think I lost my mind, reality's so hard to find
When the devil tryna call your line, but shit, I always shine
Even when the light dim
No, I ain't God, but I'm feelin' just like Him
Contemplatin' suicide like it's a DVD
Lost inside my mind, it's a prison, homie, leave me be
Everybody's gotta live
And everybody's gonna die
Everybody just wanna have a good, good time
I think you know the reason why
No, they don't like it when I'm down
But when I'm flyin', oh
It make 'em so uncomfortable
So different, what's the difference?
I keep my head above the water (Water)
My eyes gettin' bigger, so the world is gettin' smaller (Smaller)
In the quest to be a man, you start to learn you need your family
It wasn't for them, I'd be way closer to insanity
Never scared of death, but I ain't ready for that day to come
The day that I die on will turn me to an icon
The goal here is to be as much me as possible
Done so much in my short lifetime, but I haven't done shit
I done flew around the whole world
I been havin' trouble sleepin', battlin' these demons
Wondering what's the thing that keeps me breathin': is it money, fame or neither?
