Yeah

(Don't you turn yo back on me)

I aint lifting we aint working out
You've been shitting on me
Word of mouth
Spoke my name so much that you done fucking wore it out
Can't be seen with you like I wore you out
They said don't mess with scene bitches
They gon air you out
Give a fuck bout who you with
When I'm not with you
I mind my business
I suggest that you should do it to

Don't you turn yo back on me
Turn yo back on me
Don't you turn yo back on me
Just throw it back on me
Throw it back on me

My words is slurring
That's what usually happen with the Bourbon
Money look suburban
Curving these hoes
Cause the cheese the only motive
Talking zeros and o's
Shit I been down the slope
A nigga
Been had the dope
Yeah she from the city
She so bouji get a coat
Get it how I'm living or I'm dying
That's the hope
Living what I'm writing see

Can't be lying on me baby
See that karma there a ghost
Fuck that being petty
Aint gone make me do the most

Don't you turn yo back on me
(You aint gon make me do the most)
Turn yo back on me
(These hoes can't make me do the most)
Don't you turn yo back on me
Just throw it back on me
(Throw it back)
Don't you turn yo back on me




Turn yo back on me
Just throw back it on me

Overall Meaning

In "Don't You," DavidTheTragic expresses his frustrations with someone who has been speaking ill of him. The song begins with the artist being direct and stating that he is not willing to put effort into a relationship with someone who has not been treating him well. He uses the metaphor of lifting weights to say that he is not going to put in any effort to make things work. He goes on to say that the person has been spreading rumors about him so much that they have worn his name out. The artist implies that he is distancing himself from this person as he does not want to be associated with them because he fears they will come back to harm him. He instructs the person to mind their own business just like he does.


In the second verse, DavidTheTragic characterizes himself as someone who has been drinking and is therefore slurring his words. He talks about how money changes people and how he is avoiding women who are only interested in him for his wealth. He explains how he is focused on making money and is not interested in petty back-and-forth arguments. DavidTheTragic concludes the song by reminding his subject not to turn their back on him but to throw it back instead.
