Libianca People

On Rolling Stone, Libianca said;

I had recorded that song during a time where I was at a low. So I have Cyclothymia, which it’s a mood disorder. So you have your highs and you have your lows. It’s not necessarily manic, it’s not too severe, but the lows just suck. So I was going through that at the time. And I was just like, I don’t know how much of this I can take. It’s getting ridiculous. I was really struggling. Depressive symptoms, harmful thoughts, just trying to push myself through. During a Friendsgiving I was hosting a Friendsgiving at my house, eventually, I was like…I wasn’t feeling the vibes. I went to the bathroom, I cried, tried to pull myself together, and then I came back downstairs. And everyone’s like, “Oh, Libby, you want to take a shot of this Casa?” I’m like, “Yeah, sure, whatever.” So I take the shot. And then I’m just like, okay, you know what? This is not doing it for me. Prior to that day, we had went out a few times and I noticed that I was drinking way more than I usually do. I never felt anything that I didn’t like. I was feeling just jolly, and so I just kept drinking more. So after I took that shot downstairs, I was like, all right, I got to go. So I just left. No one noticed that I left. I just left. I went upstairs to one of the studios and I was like, I have to record something, because it’s been two days since I’ve posted on social media and I need to get some content done. I was not feeling like doing it at all, because I was like, I don’t feel like doing anything. I just want to just sit here, sit in my room and cry and just cry all night. So I sat and I started looking for beats. I went on YouTube, and that’s when I found the instrumental by Mage the Producer. And I was like, hmm, something about this is hitting. I’m just filling this, so let’s see what comes out. And I transported it into Logic and I just started recording. I closed my eyes and it just came out really. I didn’t necessarily write it. It was exactly how I was feeling.

Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Mhmm, mhmm
From Bamenda, it’s Libianca
Oh-oh (A-yo, Mage, it’s yo’ beat)

[Post-Chorus]
I’ve been drinking more alcohol for the past five days
Did you check on me?
Now, did you look for me?
I walked in the room, eyes are red and I don’t smoke banga
Did you check on me? (Did you check on me?)
Now, did you notice me?

[Verse 1]
Nobody wey know the paranoia oh
‘Cause I put a smile on my face
A façade you can never face (Ooh)
And if you don’t know me well, well, oh
You won’t see how buried I am inside my grave
Inside my grave

[Chorus]
‘Cause you see peoplе, people, peoplе, people
Don’t really know you
They don’t really know you
‘Cause you see people, people, people
They don’t really know you
They don’t really know—

[Post-Chorus]
I’ve been drinking more alcohol for the past five days
Did you check on me?
Now, did you look for me?
I walked in the room, eyes are red and I don’t smoke banga
Did you check on me? (Did you check on me?)
Now, did you notice me?

[Verse 2]
Oh, holy father
Oh, holy father, I dey try fo hold my head
I say make you no leave me diko
Oh, holy father (Yeah-yeah)
Oh, make you try fo understand
Yahoo girl no dey for here

[Chorus]
‘Cause you see people, people, people, people
Don’t really know you (They don’t really know you)
They don’t really know you
‘Cause you see people, people, people
They don’t really know you (Mmm)
They don’t really know—

[Post-Chorus]
I’ve been drinking more alcohol for the past five days
Did you check on me?
Now, did you look for me?
I walked in the room, eyes are red and I don’t smoke banga
Did you check on me? (Did you check on me?)
Now, did you notice me?
I’ve been drinking more alcohol for the past five days
Did you check on me?
Now, did you look for me?
I walked in the room, eyes are red and I don’t smoke banga
Did you check on me? (Did you check on me?)
Now, did you notice me?

[Outro]
I’ve been drinking more alcohol for the past five days
Did you check on me?
