Few Times
Aer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Few times you been
walking through my front door
spend my money but im

slowly makin back more

never knew I had
time to even the score i let you take all i had to give
Im not a soldier, a gangster
and i've never reached the point of leaving, i never thanked you
for making up my mind, i just dont have the time
girl you act like a child, so dont expect me to wait for you, no
Now I feel like i've won it, thats right
comin' out the trouble, after massive attack,
I'm pullin' myself up from the rubble,
never end up face down, my heart in her hands again,
I'mma pass my love to crowds and spill my soul out with this pen,
and I can't be walked upon, well I've had enough,
let you win at mini golf, bitch you can't even putt,
thought I'd take a bullet for you, thought you're worth my blood,
It's obvious you'll never notice what's up girl
few times you been
walking through my front door
spend my money but im
slowly makin back more
never knew i had
time to even the score i let you take all i had to give.
I've been done with this bullshit business
since this kiss stopped being what I want,
90 percent of the hours consisted of you pissed, only 10 of love
had to cut her rope (snip), layed out upon the hammock,
got out of there quick like a qualified bandit,
and I've been searching for a fresh new twist,
finally have them keys to rid them cuffs around my wrist,
I can be on my way, you got no words to say,
that can change my mind, I'm not playin' games
few times you been
walking through my front door
spend my money but im
slowly makin back more
never knew I had
time to even the score i let you take all i had to give
And all I had to give (all I had to give)
was taken relentlessly,
and all I wanted to gain (all I wanted to gain)
washed right away with this evening's rain
Few times you been
walking through my front door
spend my money but im
slowly making back more




never knew i had
time to even the score i let you take all i had to give.

Overall Meaning

In "Few Times", Aer recounts a past relationship where he allowed his partner to take advantage of him. They had walked in and out of his life a few times, spending his money, making him feel obligated to give all that he had to give without receiving any reciprocation. In the chorus, he expresses a will to even the score, to get back what he put into the relationship. He acknowledges that he had never been one to fight or resort to violence, but he is not going to wait around for his partner to come back to him. Instead, he is going to focus on himself and his passions, such as music, and let his art do the talking. In the end, he realizes that he has come out of the relationship stronger than before and is done with the "bullshit business".


The lyrics are straightforward and relatable, describing a situation where many people have found themselves in. It captures the feeling of wanting to move on from a toxic relationship and reclaiming one's own worth. The verses contain imagery about being pulled out of the rubble and finding a fresh new twist, symbolizing the idea of starting fresh and taking control of one's own life. The chorus wraps up the message of the song, with Aer realizing that he had let his partner take advantage of him and that he is determined to reclaim his own dignity.
