This track was first announced in a March 2022 interview with Loud and Quiet.
On the track, Denzel tackles multiple racial issues in America, from a retrospective verse on the response to the George Floyd protests in the summer of 2020 to institutional racism in the music industry.
[Chorus]
Any day can be our last day
So much trouble on the streets that we need to buy a AK
Brung a mask for the whole day
We ain't tryna get sick, so we walk around with no face
The USA is a cold place
Cold world, cold world, we don't even got a North Face
Any day can be our last day
Drinkin', I been drinkin', I need AA
Any day can be our last day
So much trouble on the streets that we need to buy a AK
Brung a mask for the whole day
We ain't tryna get sick, so we walk around with no face
The USA is a cold place
Cold world, cold world, we don't even got a North Face
Any day can be our last day
Drinkin', I been drinkin', I need AA
[Verse 1]
I been smokin' chronic, on my Panasonic watchin' people dyin'
Got me bein' honest with my savior
Keep that sinnin' away from me, yeah
Shit is hard to stomach, I can't even vomit
Pour up gin and tonic just to calm my conscience
Wonderin' on every second, I wanna leave, yeah
Forced to be mellow, see my common fellow
Told him "Keep your distance" can't even say "Hello"
It struck me harder than a bow and arrow
Time is gettin' worse for people in the ghetto
Too many homeless
People layin' down, too many roses
Losin' loved ones that be the closest
People run up with guns fully loaded, they might blow it
[Chorus]
Any day can be our last day
So much trouble on the streets that we need to buy a AK
Brung a mask for the whole day
We ain't tryna get sick, so we walk around with no face
The USA is a cold place
Cold world, cold world, we don't even got a North Face
Any day can be our last day
Drinkin', I been drinkin', I need AA
Any day can be our last day
So much trouble on the streets that we need to buy a AK
Brung a mask for the whole day
We ain't tryna get sick, so we walk around with no face
The USA is a cold place
Cold world, cold world, we don't even got a North Face
Any day can be our last day
Drinkin', I been drinkin', I need AA
[Verse 2]
Stayed off the net, now I'm constantly readin'
You say the wrong thing, you get canceled for tweetin'
Looking for answers, that's what I been seekin'
The ones with influence don't ever be teachin'
Industry colorist, they need to cut this shit
Can't fuck with government, what can I say?
Caught me some other shit, can't fall in love with it
I say a prayer to not be the prey
Hoes with the drama OD
Then they turn around and throw they drama on me
These are the only reasons why I stay lowkey
And I knew this world was shitty when we lost Kobe
Young man, black man, I'm a negro
World had to heal, now the world need growth
Cops killin' blacks when the whites do the most
And your so-called revolution ain't nothin' but a post
Period
[Chorus]
Any day can be our last day
So much trouble on the streets that we need to buy a AK
Brung a mask for the whole day
We ain't tryna get sick, so we walk around with no face
The USA is a cold place
Cold world, cold world, we don't even got a North Face
Any day can be our last day
Drinkin', I been drinkin', I need AA
Any day can be our last day
So much trouble on the streets that we need to buy a AK
Brung a mask for the whole day
We ain't tryna get sick, so we walk around with no face
The USA is a cold place
Cold world, cold world, we don't even got a North Face
Any day can be our last day
Drinkin', I been drinkin', I need AA
The Last was written by HWLS & Mickey De Grand IV & Finatik & Zac & Denzel Curry.
Denzel Curry released The Last on Fri Mar 25 2022.
Commenting on the second verse of “The Last” in a March 2022 interview with Loud and Quiet, Denzel said:
The music industry is a bit colourist,[…] A lot of the most seen, talented singers and rappers are light-skinned. I see a lot of light-skinned women, like Saweetie, Doja Cat, Cardi B, just to na...
Yes, he has. “Pig Feet,”, his June 2020 collaboration with Terrace Martin, Daylyt, G Perico, and Kamasi Washington, offered Denzel’s immediate reaction to Floyd’s death and the ensuing civilian protests and law enforcement response that swept the nation in the summer of 2020.
