Frame
Choker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Things change
Baby I did what I had to do (what I had to)
Wood grain, turn the corner
Hit the avenue
New things
Always, I still have a few
No lane-switchin' on me
I depend on you

Things change
Baby I did what I had to do (what I had to)
Wood grain, turn the corner
Hit the avenue
New things
Always, I still have a few
No lane-switchin' on me
I depend on you

This ain't overnight
We gotta work with time
Balance that you can find
Rally the troops and drive
I wanna re-frame my mind
Ride on a brief flight, no sky
You take the notch out my spine
I'm tryna watch yours and mine

Ain't no way
What we make
Won't live past
All our years
Gonna make an answer
Our powers we can't shake
Our bonds we can't break
I'm sure, I'm sure

And I'll make up the sleepless nights
In due time (yeah, oh, oh)
Pray that I wake up to see
That you're still mine

It's like (it's like)
It's like, it's like, ah
Can't avoid it
Can't avoid it, no
Next page
There's no room to trace
Make some room for you
Please don't waste my space (please don't)

Things change
Baby I did what I had to do (what I had to)
Wood grain, turn the corner
Hit the avenue
New things
Always, I still have a few
No lane-switchin' on me
I depend on you

Things change
Baby I did what I had to do (what I had to)
Wood grain, turn the corner
Hit the avenue
New things
Always, I still have a few
No lane-switchin' on me
I depend on you

Heard you want a shot of free Dom'
Pour one up
And dance with me like ooh-la-la
Never had a chance to be loved
Just hold on my hand
And run with me like ooh-la-la
(Hold on my hand)
There's no one
You can't touch
Shoulders brush
Jet-set love
For us to feel the rush, yeah (the rush)

It's like
It's like, it's like, ah
Can't avoid it
Can't avoid it, no
Next page
There's no room to trace
Make some room for you
Please don't waste my space (please don't)





Don't waste
My space, space
