Nosedive Lyrics
- Lyrics
- Meaning
[Verse 1: Post Malone]
I found God lookin' for the devil
Chasin' a high I couldn't keep forever
It's always worse before the better, I suppose
And how far down, it's hard to tell
When to buy and when to sell
'Cause that comedown, it hurts like hell
And every thorn has its rose
[Chorus: Post Malone]
Sometimes you're drivin', sometimes you're stallin'
Sometimes you're flyin', sometimes you're fallin'
But there's still beauty in the nosedive
Sometimes you're runnin', sometimes you're crawlin'
Sometimes you're broke, sometimes you're ballin'
But there's still beauty in the nosedive
[Verse 2: Lainey Wilson]
I hit rock and dropped the shovel
Clawed my way out past the rubble
Do my best, stay outta trouble, heaven knows
Sometimes, the picture, it ain't perfect
But there's learnin' in the hurtin'
Sick of bearin' all the burden
Every thorn has its rose
[Chorus: Post Malone & Lainey Wilson]
Sometimes you're drivin', sometimes you're stallin'
Sometimes you're flyin', sometimes you're fallin'
But there's still beauty in the nosedive
Sometimes you're runnin', sometimes you're crawlin'
Sometimes you're broke, sometimes you're ballin'
But there's still beauty in the nosedive
[Bridge: Post Malone]
Ah, on my descent, the turbulence is my best friend
Buckle up and enjoy the ride
I cut my line through pale blue sky
To remind me I'm alive
[Chorus: Post Malone]
Sometimes you're drivin', sometimes you're stallin'
Sometimes you're flyin', sometimes you're fallin'
But there's still beauty in the nosedive (Beauty in the nosedive)
Sometimes you're runnin', sometimes you're crawlin'
Sometimes you're broke, sometimes you're ballin'
But there's still beauty in the nosedive
[Outro: Post Malone & Lainey Wilson]
Sometimes you're drivin', sometimes you're stallin'
Sometimes you're flyin', sometimes you're fallin'
But there's still beauty in the nosedive
[Verse 1: Post Malone]
In this section, Post Malone reflects on the search for meaning and the pursuit of temporary highs that ultimately lead to difficult comedowns. The imagery of finding "God" while searching for "the devil" suggests a journey of self-discovery and grappling with one's inner conflicts. The verse emphasizes the challenge of knowing when to take risks and when to hold back, highlighting the pain that comes with these decisions. The recurring theme of each thorn having its rose suggests that despite the hardships, there is a positive aspect to every struggle.
[Chorus: Post Malone & Lainey Wilson]
The chorus underscores the central message of the song: despite experiencing different states of being—whether driving or stalling, flying or falling—there is inherent beauty in the process. The repetition of these contrasting situations serves to reinforce the idea that every experience, no matter how challenging, has its own value and beauty. The line "But there's still beauty in the nosedive" encapsulates the essence of the song, suggesting that even in moments of freefall or instability, there is something to appreciate.
[Verse 2: Lainey Wilson]
Lainey Wilson's verse continues the theme of personal struggle and resilience. She describes hitting rock bottom and working hard to overcome difficulties. The imagery of dropping the shovel and clawing out of rubble symbolizes the effort required to move past tough situations. The verse also touches on the imperfection of life and the lessons learned through pain. The idea that "every thorn has its rose" is reiterated, emphasizing the growth that can come from enduring hardships.
[Bridge: Post Malone]
In the bridge, Post Malone likens turbulence during descent to a friend, suggesting a sense of camaraderie with the challenges faced. The imagery of cutting a line through the sky represents a deliberate and conscious effort to navigate through difficult times. This section highlights the importance of embracing the journey, with turbulence symbolizing both the struggle and the vitality of being alive. It reinforces the theme of finding meaning and purpose through adversity.
[Outro: Post Malone & Lainey Wilson]
The outro echoes the chorus, reaffirming the central message of the song. By repeating the phrase "Sometimes you're drivin', sometimes you're stallin'," the outro reinforces the idea that life's fluctuations are an integral part of the experience. The continuous reminder of finding beauty in the nosedive brings the song full circle, emphasizing the enduring theme of appreciating the highs and lows of life's journey.
