Song Meaning
PEABOD turns a phone full of missed calls into a picture of hard-won peace. The chorus repeats a simple image — standing ten feet tall while problems shrink below — and the verses explain why: after a stretch of feeling low and out of hope, the singer decided not to settle, choosing instead to live "out on attack" rather than hesitate. The phone becomes the song's central prop. Do Not Disturb is switched on, calls go unanswered, and the second verse jokes about 253 problems blowing up the line until the signal drops and the voicemail takes over. There's a playful, almost swaggering tone to lines about scam callers and being "way outta reach," but underneath it sits a real shift in perspective: the noise that used to pull him down no longer has his number. The repeated hook works less like a boast and more like a declaration, a reminder spoken until it settles. What lingers is the choice at the center of the bridge — the decision to stop settling and to see the view from higher ground.

I been feeling ten feet tall
Yeah, the view up here got my problems lookin' small
Things are looking up that's all
They can hit my phone but I'm not taking calls
Got my phone on DND, there's no way I'ma hit you back
I don't like to hesitate, I live my life out on attack
Way too high to see the little problems that you throwing at me
You could try to bring me down but honestly you'll never catch me
All my time, I was low
Had to choose myself
Now I'm really on a different level
I was so down, out of hope
But I found myself
Had to choose that I would never settle
I been feeling ten feet tall
Yeah, the view up here got my problems lookin' small
Things are looking up that's all
They can hit my phone but I'm not taking calls
I'm ten feet, ten feet tall, ten feet
I'm not taking calls
I'm ten feet, ten feet tall, ten feet
I'm not taking calls
253 the number problems got ahold of it
Now they won't stop callin' my phone unless I'm not holdin' it
When it's a circus in here I try to shake it up
Somewhere out of service (chkkk) yeah, you're breaking up
Drop the call, aye, drop the call, aye
No bars voicemail send 'em all, aye
Scam callers on the caller ID
Will find me way outta reach
I'm feelin' taller yeah like ten feet
I been feeling ten feet tall
Yeah, the view up here got my problems lookin' small
Things are looking up that's all
They can hit my phone but I'm not taking calls
I been feeling ten feet tall
Yeah, the view up here got my problems lookin' small
Things are looking up that's all
They can hit my phone but I'm not taking calls
I'm ten feet, ten feet tall, ten feet
I'm not taking calls
I'm ten feet, ten feet tall, ten feet
I'm not taking calls
