Make It
Eli. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

we were wasted
stayin' up all night long
in the basement
singin' your favorite song
you were naked
thinkin' that we belong
didn't make it
funny how we were wrong

you can lose your attitude
lil mama feelin' rude
calm down witcho' headass
we didn't last 5 minutes

why you bein' so damn mean?
throw a tantrum cause a scene
all my, all my broken promises
girl, i swear i never lied to you
just changed my mind, cause that's what we do

indecisive, you don't mean a thing to me
tell yo girlfriends i'm just tryna play some games
girl, i swear i never lied to you
just changed my mind, cause that's what we do

we were wasted
stayin' up all night long
in the basement
singin' your favorite song
you were naked
thinkin' that we belong
didn't make it
funny how we were wrong

we were wasted
stayin' up all night long
in the basement
singin' your favorite song
you were naked
thinkin' that we belong
didn't make it, we didn't make it

ooo, girl you know what to do
you know i need it, i need it, i need it
i need you

as indecisive as they come




but i made up my, made up my mind
i don't wanna run
