The Blurred Lines of Success and Struggle in Juice WRLD's '20/20 Vision'

Juice WRLD's '20/20 Vision' is a track that delves into the complexities of success, personal struggles, and the harsh realities of street life. The song's title plays on the concept of perfect vision, suggesting clarity and the ability to see things as they truly are. However, Juice WRLD flips this idea by repeatedly stating that despite having '20/20 vision,' he still can't see his competitors, implying that they are insignificant or non-existent in his path to success.

The lyrics are laced with references to drug use, violence, and the emotional numbness that comes from heartbreak and betrayal. Juice WRLD uses metaphors like 'popping pills and sipping lean like penicillin' to highlight his coping mechanisms for pain, while also acknowledging the destructive nature of these habits. The mention of 'feeling like an evil villain' and comparing himself to Krillin from 'Dragon Ball Z' adds a layer of pop culture to his self-image, portraying himself as powerful yet conflicted.

Throughout the song, Juice WRLD oscillates between boasting about his wealth and fashion sense, and expressing a deep sense of distrust and disillusionment. The bravado in his voice masks a deeper narrative of survival and the need to maintain a tough exterior. '20/20 Vision' is a raw and honest reflection of Juice WRLD's inner world, where clarity of sight does not necessarily equate to understanding or peace.
