I could be wrong but i think this song is about imposter syndrome. For the context of it being imposter syndrome the lyrics "touch me, midas" is such a genius line. It implies he is 'gold' not to his efforts but to outer forces that are not in his control, which is something people with imposter syndrome feel when it comes to their success. He also goes from someone who is slightly successful and has enough money to be comfortable to someone getting so much adoration he believes he doesn't deserve, he starts to question and lose himself in the process.
Ive been watching this Song so much, now im addicted to this - I wanna watch this like a 100 times (Im addicted to this song btw) Anyways, i wish yall good luck, and the Best

@@wdym8808 it’s technically not an anime since it’s from Nickelodeon, but I highly suggest you watch it since it’s such a great series! It’s called Avatar: The Last Airbender you can find it and it’s sequel on Netflix :>
TW: Mentioning of suicidal thoughts I personally don't feel like Toph is the absolute best representative character for this song, but I can understand where a lot of people are coming from. The song can be taken in a direction where the lyrics are interpreted as having an over-inflated ego and thinking that one person can think they are higher of a status (or a metaphorical "god") like the character. While I don't think it's exactly false as one of the phrases states "they tell me I'm a god, I'm lost in the facade, six-feet off the ground at all times, I think I'm feelin' odd" (which is where the song can be interpreted from as a viewpoint), the rest of the lyrics contradicts that viewpoint and shows a different meaning as a whole; which is, simply put, suicidal thoughts and messages because of the way the singer is viewed as as a person of popularity. It's not a bad way of looking at the lyrics at all though, I just think it's a completely different path and character representation for what the song had originally intended for it's main morales.
“Lay still, restless. Losing sleep while I lose my mi-i-ind. All thrill, no stress. All my muses left behi-i-ind. World is, below. So high up, I’m near DIVI-I-INE. Lean in, let go. I feel fear for the very last time.” this part _IS_ divi-i-ine
oh my this is getting so much views ?!?!? also sorry for the lyric errors i made this video at 3 am, i actually didn't think this would go viral thanks for all your support
"They tell me I've been sleeping, I say im wide awake" This is me when they me that I'm staying in my room to just sleep when I was up all night playing Genshin Impact
OK. This is def Darkstalker's POV for those Wings of Fire ppl out there. No but just listen to it and imagine it. Warning. Long comment ahead and possible book spoilers. !LYRICS! The beginning is Kinkajou, as a clue to who defeated him "They tell me keep it simple, I tell them take it slow" (That's Clearsight and Fathom trying to convince him not to use his power so much.) "I feed and water an idea so I let it grow" (Darkstalker imagining all the things he can do with his animus magic) "I tell them take it easy, they laugh and tell me no" (Darkstalker telling Clearsight/Fathom not to worry so much; they didn't listen) "It's cool but i don't see them laughing at my money though" (In this scenario money could be replaced with power/magic?) "They spitting facts at me, I'm spitting tracks catch me? I'm spitting gold out my records, no, you can't combat me" (Flaunting his animus magic/mindreading/seeing futures) "They tell me Jesus walks, I tell them money talks" (Also money being replaced with magic) "Bling got me chill, so I'm living in an ice box" (where he gets put under for 2000 years) "They tell me I've been sleeping, I say I'm wide awake" (He was released by Peril when everyone thought he was dead) "Tracks hot and ready so they call me Mr. Easy-Bake" (He starts giving out powers to the Nightwings) "They say my grass is greener I think my grass is dank" (Grass used as a metaphor for his soul) "Driving with a drank on an empty tank to the bank" (When he heads out to the rainforest to convince them to come with him) "Do you feel me take a look inside my brain, the people always different but it always feels the same. That's the real me, pop the champagne, the haters wanna hurt me and I'm laughing at the pain" (Him brainwashing and convincing them to come with him) "Stayin' still, eyes closed, let the world just pass me by" (Him being able to fix stuff with magic) "Pain pills, nice clothes, if I fall I think I'll fly" (Wants to be with Clearsight again but doesn't want others to see) "Touch me, Midas, make me part of your design" (Everyone fighting to get power from Darkstalker) "None to guide us, I feel fear for the very last time" (Him saying they're safe under his rule and he knows no one can hurt him) "They tell me that I'm special, I nod and shake my head. I'll give them stories to tell about the things I said!" (People bewitched to like and trust him) "They tell me you're so humble, I say I'm turning red. They let me lie to them and don't feel like they've been mislead" (Him knowing he's evil and knowing he's wrecking peace all over the continent.) "They give so much to me, I'm losing touch, get me? Served on a silver platter, ask for seconds they just let me" (Him being overwhelmed with power and the idea of creating and overpowered super army) "They tell me I'm a god, I'm lost in the facade, six feet of the ground at all times I think I'm feeling odd" (Him not being sure if the praises are genuine or if they are from his spell he has on everyone) "No matter what I make, they never see mistakes" (The spell making them trust his decisions no matter what they are) "Making so much bread I don't care that they're just being fake" (Him having so much power he doesn't need real feelings towards him) "They tell me they're below me, I act like I'm above, the people blend together but I would be lost without their love" (Him knowing if he took off the spell he would have no actual friends) "Can you heal me? Have I made too much? When you become in touch but unable to touch? Is there a real me? Pop the champagne!" (Knowing he was evil evil when he woke back up and trying to convince himself otherwise) "It hurts me just to think and I don't do pain!" (Thinking about Clearsight and wanting to be back with her) "Standin' still, eyes closed, let the world just pass me by" (Knowing power shields him) "Pain pills, nice clothes, if I fall I think I'll fly" (again being in pain but not wanting to show it) "Touch me, Midas, make me part of your design" (Everyone fighting to get power from Darkstalker even more now) "None to guide us, I feel fear for the very last time" (Him saying they're safe under his rule from IceWings) "Lay still, restless, losing sleep while I lose my mind' (Losing his soul slowly) "All thrill, no stress, all my muses left behind" (Trying to be better) "World is below, so high up I'm near divine. Lean in, let go." (Too evil to go back) "I feel fear for the very last time." (right before Kinkajou uses his power against him to turn him into another dragon) And finally, the fading is him turning and losing his memory. Thank you for reading!
