Before the Vomit
Amir Obe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't trust a girl that's heard it all before
All them rapping niggas that you vouching for
Lost a good girl for a bad one
And then she claiming, yeah, I'll be the last one

Tell me all your flaws, bet you I'll relate
Tell me all your wrongs, bae, I'll take the blame
Smoking on the ganja, got me so cloudy
Kill my energy, they still got doubts about me
Hit me when I'm lit, just before the vomit
Chase me when I'm coming down, and solve my problems
Think it when I'm sober, say it when I'm drunk
Don't need no closure, I'm still thinking that it's love

I can't trust a girl that's heard it all before
All them rapping niggas that you vouching for
Lost a good girl for a bad one
And then she claiming, yeah, I'll be the last one

She don't love me, she just love potential, I know
Searching for yourself, you need direction, I know
You too fine to blend in with the rest of these hoes
I'm just another guy that tried impressing you though
Bite my tongue until it bleeds
Tryna figure you out, but you hard to read baby
I'm just honest, them promises hard to keep babe
See you run through my nightmares, it's hard to sleep babe
Yeah, yeah

Tell me all your flaws, bet you I'll relate
Tell me all your wrongs, babe, I'll take the blame
Smoking on the ganja, got me so cloudy
Kill my energy, they still got doubts about me
Hit me when I'm lit, just before the vomit
Chase me when I'm coming down, and solve my problems
Think it when I'm sober, say it when I'm drunk




Don't need no closure, I'm still thinking that it's love
Yeah, yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Amir Obe's song Before the Vomit explore the complexities and challenges of modern-day relationships. The song talks about the difficulty of finding someone trustworthy in a dating scene that is saturated with false promises and deception. The lyrics highlight the singer's fear of trusting a girl who has heard it all before and has been vouched for by other rapping guys. He has lost a good girl to a bad one, and even though the latter claims that she will be the last one, the singer finds it hard to believe her.


The chorus of the song talks about the singer's desire to know his partner's flaws and wrongs and to take the blame for them. He talks about smoking ganja and feeling cloudy, which kills his energy, making him doubt himself. He also talks about how his partner hits him up when he's drunk and just before he vomits - suggesting that his partner only wants him when he's vulnerable and not when he's in control. The singer feels that his partner only loves his potential and not him as a person, which makes it difficult for them to connect romantically.


The verse highlights the singer's struggle to understand his partner and his fear of losing her. He is trying his best to figure her out, but she is hard to read. He is biting his tongue until it bleeds, trying to keep his promises to her. He is honest about his feelings but finds it hard to keep his word. He sees her in his nightmares, making it hard for him to sleep. The chorus is repeated, emphasizing the challenges of modern-day love - where people doubt themselves and their partners, and where love can be difficult to define.
