XXXTENTACION: King of the Dead Meaning

King of the Dead Lyrics

I'm out my mind, see fear in your eyes
I'm sick, I despise myself again
The tears never come, my body is numb
I feel like a god amongst the men
Cut out my eyes, feed me with lies that I don't never have to see again
I feed the hate, I feed...

   King of the Dead means that he sees everything about us humans and how we aren’t really living but we are being controlled and turned into zombies by the bad. Also he says that when we die we really do go to heaven but if you sell your soul you go into the bottomless pit or hell. He also says he is a demon and that he is god like because he was! He had demon powers but used them for good because he was full of love like God. He also is saying to the bad you won’t make me a zombie (Aka make me brain dead) because I am going to pick when I die and that when he does die it will open many peoples eyes to the truth.

   I feel like he seems to have his eyes open seeing what this world really is. He says he "feel like a god amongst the men" he may be referring to how he feels about everyone else around him. I picture him thinking that we are all dead is the only one the "king of the dead".

   Every Lyric in this song has a meaning, like when he said "fuck the devil for your wealth" he is clearly talking about making an arrangement with the devil.

   He one of the only woke people out here amongst everyone that was different from him. They all asleep and his eyes are open and he sees the world for what it is. His the only one. He sees the world is controlled (dead) and he the only one with open eyes. His therefore the king trying to lead us to open eyes.

   I think it's about his suicidal thoughts or thinking.

    Needle in my veins I'm falling asleep.... My body is numb.... Come on he's talking aboud shooting up dope. Think about when people shoot up D they are like dead to the world. Hence the song title "King of the Dead".
