Headache
Dee Gatti Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Told me she a blessing not a lesson
She give me good head when I’m stressing
But she the cause of it all
Had to go a extra mile
Just to keep a smile on your face
And you wonder why I need time
And you wonder why I need space
Slow it down need a break
Girl you suppose to be my peace
Giving me headaches

Cause time don’t wait for no one I don’t think this can wait
Plus I been losing patience with you
Now it’s too late
I mean what I say
Until we face to face
And you know just what it takes to get my mind to change
I just need to get away ain’t no reason left to stay
Told me she a blessing not lesson
She give me good head when I’m stressin

But she the cause of it all had to go a extra mile just to keep a smile on your face
And you wonder why I need time
And you wonder why I need space
Slow it down need a break

Girl you suppose to be my peace giving me headaches
All them late nights
Can’t get no sleep
Cause u wanna be petty
To tell the truth to ya




What it doooo
To me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Dee Gatti's song "Headache" revolve around the complexities and challenges of relationships. In the opening lines, Dee describes his female partner as a blessing who helps him relieve stress through her offerings of oral sex. However, he soon reveals that she is also the cause of his problems, leading him to go an "extra mile" just to keep her happy. He expresses his frustration and need for space by asking her why he needs time and adding that she was supposed to be his peace, not his source of headaches.


The chorus emphasizes the urgency of the situation by insisting that time does not wait for anyone, and that the singer has been losing patience with his partner. He also implies that there is a lack of reciprocity in the relationship, as his partner's behavior is causing him undue stress without offering any solutions or compromise. In this way, the song explores the difficulties of communication and compromise in romantic relationships, as well as the emotional toll they can take on individuals.


Ultimately, the song's lyrics hint at a sense of resignation, as the singer declares that there is "no reason left to stay," and that he "just needs to get away." While Dee Gatti's "Headache" may seem like a simple song on its surface, it offers an insightful look into the complexity of relationships and the emotional turmoil they can cause.
