Reflections
Dustystaytrue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see reflections of me when I look at you
And I ain′t never felt this way
And I can't lie, girl you got it
And I got pain all in my body
You helping me heal from
Lil′ mama a real one

Baby girl you want the rest of me and I'ma give it to you
I'ma spoil you like a real nigga
Know I adore you
Baby girl you got me shook
Lil′ mama got me hooked
And you know these niggas ain′t gon' do what I do
You know my body girl I gotta stay true

Niggas know I got a dime
Deep strokes in your spine
I been running out of time
Gotta show the world you′re mine
And when I fuck up, girl you hold it down even though I ain't shit
I been fucked up, I′m so traumatized since my dog got hit
Promethazine in my eyes
Girl you be tight when I sip
But I tell you I'ma hood nigga first
I′m out the mud, I'm from the dirt
My niggas still putting in work
They trap from the first to the first
I ain't tryna end up on no shirts
So I keep a glocky tucked around me
I just pray that my angels surround me
I remember when they tried to clown me
Tell me all your ambitions baby I′m here to listen if you need me baby
First one to talk tough shit but I need you lately

I see reflections of me when I look at you
And I ain′t never felt this way
And I can't lie, girl you got it
And I got pain all in my body
You helping me heal from
Lil′ mama a real one

Baby girl you want the rest of me and I'ma give it to you
I′ma spoil you like a real nigga
Know I adore you
Baby girl you got me shook
Lil' mama got me hooked
And you know these niggas ain′t gon' do what I do
You know my body girl I gotta stay true

You know I'm street first
Gotta make sure you eat first
And I can′t let you sleep hurt
Knowing damn well that nobody don′t love me
Why the fuck would I leave her
Can't speak on all the shit that a nigga done seen firsthand
Feel like I don′t need no man
I be moving off of instinct so I feel like I don't need no plan
She ain′t worried 'cause she know a nigga got commas on me
And I ain′t never worried 'bout no nigga plotting on me
Seem life gotta lil' worse I got the dollars on me
But I ain′t worried ′cause a nigga always got it on me
Niggas hate so you know I try to stay solo
You done been around ever since it was USPA not Polo
Street nigga, she a down bitch so my lil' baby on go mode
I see reflections of me in you that′s something you don't know

I see reflections of me when I look at you
And I ain′t never felt this way
And I can't lie, girl you got it
And I got pain all in my body
You helping me heal from
Lil′ mama a real one

Baby girl you want the rest of me and I'ma give it to you
I'ma spoil you like a real nigga
Know I adore you
Baby girl you got me shook
Lil′ mama got me hooked




And you know these niggas ain′t gon' do what I do
You know my body girl I gotta stay true
