You're so cold
You'd be playing like

The lyrics to HRVY’s song “Personal” depict the heartache and confusion of a young man who is still clinging to the hope of a relationship that he knows is toxic. The singer knows that the girl he’s dating is dangerous and that her actions will ultimately hurt him, but he continues to ignore the warnings from his friends and continues to be drawn to her. Despite her actions, he still can’t help but feel a connection to her and hopes that she will eventually change her ways.
The lyric "I got told danger follows everywhere you go, but I still be like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,” highlights how the singer is aware of the danger surrounding the relationship yet still chooses to go along with it anyway. He is young and in love, and he believes that this relationship is worth the risk. As the song progresses, we see the singer grappling with his feelings for this girl, knowing that she’s going to hurt him but unable to let go.
Overall, “Personal” is a relatable track about the pain and confusion of young love. It illustrates how difficult it can be to let go of a relationship when you still have feelings for someone, even when you know that it is no longer good for you.

I don't know why'd do this to me
I am unsure why you would treat me in this manner
You're so cold
Your behavior is devoid of emotion or warmth
You'd be playing like
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You act in a flippant, nonchalant manner
I got told danger follows everywhere you go
But I still be like
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I have been warned about the risks associated with being with you, but I still choose to continue seeing you
This the part where I'm gonna get hurt
I never listened but I didn't deserve it
I was young and she was my first love
So they say that you live and you learn
I am aware that I am putting myself in a vulnerable position by being with you, but despite being advised against it, I went ahead with this relationship because you were my first love and I believed in the idea of learning from one's mistakes
Like yeah she gone mess with you head
Oh yeah and she'll flirt with your friends, oh yeah
Make you wish you were dead
Everytime she moves on she says
(Don't take it personal)
(Don't take it personal)
Every time she moves on she says
You have a pattern of playing psychological games, flirting with my friends, and causing me emotional distress whenever you end things with me. Despite this, you consistently ask me to not take any of it personally.
Who else knows
All my friends are blowing up my phone
Something's telling me
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
My friends are all contacting me about you, and my instincts are telling me that this relationship is not worth the emotional toll it is taking on me.
She won't don't no favors
Beautiful but she dangerous
She was only gone break you
Drive me crazy like
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You have no intention of doing me any favors, and while you are physically attractive, you are also dangerous and have the potential to break me. Despite this, I still can't get you out of my head.
Oh yeah and she gone mess with you head
Oh yeah and she'll flirt with your friends, oh yeah
Make you wish you were dead
Every time she moves on she says
You have a history of toying with my feelings and attempting to make me jealous by flirting with my friends. Even so, when you inevitably move on, you still ask that I not take it personally.
Yeah she gone mess with you head
Oh yeah and she'll flirt with your friends, oh yeah
Make you wish you were dead
Every time she moves on she says
Even though I am aware of the negative impact you have on my mental health and my relationships with others, I still can't help but feel the emotional pain every time you move on and ask me to not take it personally.
