Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tryna be with you is crazy
You be on your own shit daily
Peyote with that rum, make you go, "Papa"
You only show your love inside my casa
These drugs ain't keeping you off my mind
Good lord to have that ass one more time
These problems that we havin' ain't gon' stop us
And breaking this shit off is not an option

Keepin' secrets from me babe, and I want in
You've been croonin' on your own, and I want in
Drinkin' 'til you see the sun, I want in
Even when you're fuckin' wrong, I want in

Keepin' secrets from me babe, and I want in
You've been croonin' on your own, and I want in
Drinkin' 'til you see the sun, I want in
Even when you're fuckin' wrong, I want in
I want in, yeah

What's it gon' take for you to see it, babe
See this for the things that it ain't
It's bound to get ugly one of these days
But it's okay, you know we're grown, oh, oh, oh
Still, I don't want to see you go, no, no, no
You know my love isn't guaranteed
But I'm there when you need some company
If you jump, then you should jump at your own caution
Ain't your forever, but right now I know I want in

Keepin' secrets from me babe, and I want in
You've been croonin' on your own, and I want in
Drinkin' 'til you see the sun, and I want in
Even when you're fuckin' wrong, I want in

Keepin' secrets from me babe, and I want in
You've been croonin' on your own, and I want in
Drinkin' 'til you see the sun, and I want in




Even when you're fuckin' wrong, I want in
I want in, yeah
