Cloud Aura
Charli XCX Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby what hurts the most is when you become so cold
You're starting to hurt my heart, you left me here in the dark
Now I've got to make a change, I don't want to see your face
I'm starting to hurt so hard, huh, you fucked up hard

We were on some Bonnie and Clyde shit
Kept the blunts rolled, always let you take the first hit
When the Feds caught us I said I would take the rap
'Cause I knew it ain't easy livin' life in the trap
I was the Queen B, and you were like my Jay-Z
The only one who held me down when I was fucking crazy
Ivana and Trump, shit we coulda' ran the world
You were my Chris Brown, I was your only girl
Let you put your feet up while I was cooking you breakfast
Thought I found my rider, yeah but now I just regret shit
Log into your email cause I knew that shit was wrong
Pulling up a private photo of a bitch showing her thong
And I look a lil' closer it's my home girl Lisa
Time to terminate shit, hasta la vista
Married to the mob so I put a hit on it
Handed you my heart, then you took a shit on it
That's fucked up

Baby what hurts the most is when you become so cold
You're starting to hurt my heart, you left me here in the dark
Now I got to make a change, I don't want to see your face
I'm starting to hurt so hard, huh, you fucked up hard

Now I'mma fuck your shit up
Supply it to your picker
And drive a supersonic, crash and burn it with my sister
No I don't need a mister, cancel your babysitter
I'm never going down that road, it's easy to resist you

You broke my heart
And I'm never gon' forget this
You broke my heart
And I am coming back to get you, don't you know

Baby what hurts the most is when you become so cold
You're starting to hurt my heart, you left me here in the dark
Now I got to make a change, I don't want to see your face
I'm starting to hurt so hard, huh, you fucked up hard

Baby what hurts the most is when you become so cold
You're starting to hurt my heart, you left me here in the dark




Now I got to make a change, I don't want to see your face
I'm starting to hurt so hard, huh, you fucked up hard

[Verse 1: Brooke Candy]
We were on some Bonnie and Clyde shit
Kept the blunts rolled, always let you take the first hit
When the feds caught us, I said I would take the rap
'Cause I knew it ain't easy livin' life in the trap

Only one who held me down when I was fuckin' crazy
Ivana and Trump, shit, we coulda ran the world
You were my Chris Brown, I was your only girl
Let you put your feet up while I was cookin' you breakfast
Thought I found my ride or die, but now I just regret shit
Log into your email 'cause I knew that shit was wrong
Pullin' up a private photo of a bitch showin' her thong
Then I look a lil' closer, it's my home girl Lisa
Time to terminate shit, hasta la vista
Married to the mob, so I put a hit on it
Handed you my heart, then you took a shit on it
That's fucked up

[Chorus: Charli XCX]
Baby, what hurts the most

bby

Charli admitted this entire era was fake lol

Ramzi Ghadban

This music is pure modern American pop culture. I hope Charli XCX's debut album sounds a lot more like her mixtape, Heartbreaks & Earthquakes.

Brand91

Shes isnt american. Shes english(aka british). And the music genre uses late 70s european music.
