Superpower (Unreleased)

Juice WRLD's unreleased track "Superpower" delves deep into the artist's tumultuous relationship with drugs, mental health, and the facade of a glamorous lifestyle. The song's lyrics paint a vivid picture of a young man grappling with his inner demons, using substances as a means to cope with his pain and isolation. The recurring theme of nighttime and darkness symbolizes his struggle with depression and the absence of joy in his life, as he explicitly states, "Ain’t no such thing as a fun time / Nighttime, I don’t do the sunshine."

The metaphor of Hennessy giving him "superpowers" is a poignant reflection of how Juice WRLD perceives the temporary escape and false sense of invincibility that substances provide. However, this perceived strength comes at a high cost, as he acknowledges the destructive nature of his habits. The lines "She gon’ overdose off of the powder / I'ma overdose up in the shower" highlight the dangerous and often fatal consequences of drug abuse, underscoring the tragic irony that what makes him feel alive is also what could lead to his demise.

Juice WRLD's lyrics also touch on the superficiality of fame and the emptiness that often accompanies it. Despite the "Hollywood signs" and "Hollywood lights," he reveals that "everything’s wrong on the right side," indicating that the external glitz and glamour do not reflect his internal reality. The song is a raw and unfiltered look into the artist's life, offering listeners a glimpse into the struggles that many face but few openly discuss. Through his candid expression, Juice WRLD sheds light on the darker aspects of fame and the pervasive issue of addiction in the music industry.
