The song describes trying hard to escape misery and the streets but trouble always follows. It discusses being stuck in a cycle of hustling, gambling, and scamming due to being used to making money that way instead of a 9-5 job. Various verses express struggling with relationships, chasing dreams but losing sight of responsibilities, and feeling cursed to keep returning to harmful behaviors and places despite efforts to change. The chorus reiterates constantly trying to get away from trouble but it always following, and waiting to be rescued from the situation.
