Breathe Slow
Allday Lyrics

She cries like a lost toddler, said don't judge me, I said I'm not gonna
She's emotional and vulnerable, and she asks me not to judge her. I tell her that I won't.

Said you don't have to call me your honour, she laughed, said I keep getting in hot water
I tell her that she doesn't need to address me formally. She laughs and admits that she often finds herself in trouble.

I said we'll have a bath, it's only right, you know who to call on a lonely night
I suggest that we take a bath together, which feels appropriate and intimate for our relationship. I imply that I'm the person she turns to when she's lonely.

You know when you fall to show some fight, but I'm not the Doctor Phil or Oprah type
You tend to give up easily when faced with adversity, but I'm not the type of person to give you advice like a self-help guru.

I don't have much advice for you, I'm just for you I support you when you
I don't have a lot of wisdom to offer you, but I want you to know that I'm here for you and I support you through anything.

And I hope one of these days I can call you
I hope that one day, you'll reverse the roles and reach out to me so we can hang out together.

When you pick up, girl we hang out and I tell why I adore you when you smile
If you answer my call, we'll be able to spend time together and I'll take the opportunity to express how much I admire your smile.

And take a whiff of all the flowers that I bought you
I want you to smell the flowers that I gave you as a gift and enjoy their fragrance.

And you don't need to be a perfect angel or a saint for me
You don't have to be perfect or flawless for me to like you and accept you.

I know all about you, I heard all the stories they warned me
I'm aware of your past and the rumors people have spread about you, but I'm not fazed by them.

But if you say boy just wait for me, swear the writings on the wall like a cave drawing
If you tell me to wait for you, I promise that I won't forget and that it's as certain as a message engraved on a cave wall.

So she tells me her little stories, all the rich boys that she thinks are boring
She confides in me about her experiences with wealthy men, who she finds uninteresting.

And I don't really listen fully, I just stare at her in a biggy hoody
Although I'm present, I'm not actively listening to everything she's saying. I'm more focused on observing her appearance.

I tell her things and I know they don't get through
I acknowledge that my advice or opinions don't always resonate or make an impact on her.

She looks for love, and a reason to live too
She's searching for romantic love and a sense of purpose or meaning in her life.

I wish I had those things to give you, but those things you've gotta find in you
Although I want to fulfill her needs, I recognize that love and a sense of purpose must come from within herself.

And she plays the cool chick living in the Tumblr
She acts like a detached, trendy girl who's immersed in social media.

Smoking weed in a alleyway right next to the dumpster
She smokes marijuana in a grimy, unattractive location.

The boys they wanna fuck her so they text her and they bug her
Men are attracted to her sexually and repeatedly contact her through text messages.

She likes the attention but she can't give them an answer
Although she enjoys the flattery and validation, she doesn't know how to respond to their advances.

Cause' she's looking for an answer of her own, can you blame her?
She's searching for her own solution or response to her situation, and it's understandable that she's confused.

Underneath the fake her these people aggravate her
She puts on a façade or pretense around certain people, and they upset or irritate her.

But really I just wanna save her if she calls up bustin' down the door like Kramer
I want to rescue her if she suddenly reaches out to me, like a hero who bursts through a door to save someone.

She dropped the ‘L' bomb, and said wow Tom you know I'm just joking around that came out wrong
She accidentally expressed her love for me in a humorous way, and corrected the misunderstanding as a joke.

But I know she loves me I can see it, it's so obvious
I believe that she has romantic feelings for me, and it's obvious to me.

We hang and talk for hours doesn't matter what the topic is
We spend a lot of time together conversing, and the subject matter is irrelevant because we enjoy each other's company.

She is far from perfect but her demons make her what she is
She has flaws and personal challenges, but these characteristics contribute to her unique personality.

And she never smiles unless I'm in her like a floppy disk
She only shows genuine happiness or joy when I'm around, and becomes emotionally engaged like a computer that reads a floppy disk.

Uh Windows 95', party like its 99'
A nostalgic reference to older technology to evoke a feeling of excitement and liveliness.

Every day she's getting older time is always flying by
She's growing older and time seems to be passing quickly.

Never know how to trust, but I would try
She struggles to trust people, but I'm willing to put forth the effort to earn her trust.

I always liked a bit of trouble in this life of mine
I enjoy a bit of excitement or challenge in my life.

Well I don't have an answer
I don't know the answer to these unanswered questions or uncertainties.

For these questions maybe we will never know
These questions might be impossible to answer or resolve.

But you, you, you, gotta breathe slow
Despite the uncertainty and confusion, you need to remain calm and composed.

She says girl things, I say boy things, she likes to make things, I destroy things
We have different interests and tendencies - she enjoys creating, while I tend to dismantle or damage things.

She does drawing so I get the blue tack, she doesn't like em' there, I say too bad
She creates art and needs adhesive, but I place it in a location she doesn't like. I'm indifferent to her opinion.

We hang out and I show her all my new raps, I see the real her, not the cute act
We spend time together and I share my new musical compositions with her. I appreciate her authentic identity, rather than a false persona she sometimes presents.

Well I don't have an answer
I still don't have the answer to these unresolved questions or uncertainties.

For these questions maybe we will never know
These questions might continue to be unanswered or unresolved.

But you, you, yeah you, you, yeah you, gotta breathe slow, just breathe slow, just breathe slow
Regardless of the unknown, it's important to remain composed and take calming breaths.
