Cheat Codes Feels Great

[Antionette Eastin]

Do you remember how it feels to be young?/Do you remember?/We could be anyone/Now I miss the view from the floor of your room/September came way too soon/Do you remember how it feels to be young?/It feels great, muthafucka, yeah," Fetty sings.

"'Feels Great' is our version of a John Hughes movie in song form." says Cheat Codes about the collab. "Everybody loves to look back at the glory days, but being young is just a state of mind. Fetty joining us on this song is the icing on the cake. We're label partners with him and we played a show with him in Texas a few months back. This dude always has a smile on his face, so when we originally had the demo of the song we immediately thought he'd be perfect on it."

Cheat Codes' song 'Feels Great,' featuring Fetty Wap and CVBZ, is a nostalgic anthem that captures the essence of youthful freedom and the bittersweet memories of growing up. The lyrics take listeners on a journey back to the 'golden age' of their youth, filled with carefree moments like throwing rocks at windows and skipping classes. These simple yet vivid memories evoke a sense of longing for a time when life was less complicated and more spontaneous.

The song delves into the contrast between the past and the present, highlighting how the responsibilities and pressures of adulthood have replaced the carefree days of youth. Lines like 'Credit cards and my student loans, that's so millennial' reflect the financial burdens and societal expectations that come with growing up. Despite these challenges, the song emphasizes the importance of remembering and cherishing those youthful moments that made life feel exhilarating and full of possibilities.

The chorus, with its repetitive and emphatic 'It feels great, mothafucka,' serves as a powerful reminder of the joy and freedom that characterized their younger days. The song also touches on themes of friendship and love, recalling the deep connections and shared experiences that defined their youth. The mention of significant events like prom and graduation day adds a layer of sentimentality, making the listener reflect on their own milestones and the people who were part of those moments. Ultimately, 'Feels Great' is a celebration of the past, a reminder to hold onto the memories that shaped us, and an acknowledgment of the inevitable passage of time.
