Confusion
7th Obi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wonder if you got backbone?
Wonder if you gon’ listen to ‘em?
Wonder if you gon’ prove ‘em wrong?
Wonder if you gon’ stick it to ‘em?
I been pedalling rap songs
Don’t give a fuck about what you say

Yeah I got old friends I could never save yeah
I been working all day yeah
I got set back couldn’t ever wait yeah
Lock my dreams in a safe yeah
I’mma be a legend it’s destiny not a goal
Highest in the room when I was down on my lows
Came back to myself I get the bag and I go
When the sun sets, my soul treasure bury the gold

Same niggas on road same niggas who go yeah
Streets is way too cold streets is way too cold
Please don’t hit my phone
I am not at home

Wonder if you got backbone?
Wonder if you gon’ listen to ‘em?
Wonder if you gon’ prove ‘em wrong?
Wonder if you gon’ stick it to ‘em?
I been pedalling rap songs
Don’t give a fuck about what you say

I gotta do better to show myself
I was under the weather when no one helped
I met you
Got off on a bad foot I know this
I know this and I’m feeling so wrong because of it
If you give me control girl I’m running it
Tell me that you got played but that was the last time
I’mma give you the universe just for the fun of it

Girl I’m in love with you
I’ll take it slow
Tell me your sign
But I already know
Is this confusion?
Maybe I hope
I don’t know what to say
Baby we grown
Feel like I know you from
Somewhere before
Is this confusion?
Maybe I hope
Maybe I hope

Yeah I got old friends I could never save yeah
I been working all day yeah
I got set back couldn’t ever wait yeah
Lock my dreams in a safe yeah
I’mma be a legend it’s destiny not a goal
Highest in the room when I was down on my lows
Came back to myself I get the bag and I go
When the sun sets, my soul treasure bury the gold

Girl I’m in love with you
I’ll take it slow
Tell me your sign
But I already know
Is this confusion?
Maybe I hope
I don’t know what to say
Baby we grown
Feel like I know you from
Somewhere before
Is this confusion?




Maybe I hope
