Get It Right
HI-D Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was lost for a minute
I had to get it right
I can not let them get too close they hurt me every time
You know what hurt the most? thats when you know they lie
But they gon look up in your eyes and say they love you right
I'm so tired of all these heartbreaks love gave me scars snakes
Can't hurt me again and I kept it real when they was all fake I swear they all strange
Don't wanna see me win
I took a loss cause I danced with the devil
Dripping in fashion designer the denim
If I make a million I know they gon hate
Don't rock with nobody too real for the snakes
Play your part baby don't play with my heart again
You know this heart's so cold I need you round it like a cardigan
How you my brother dog? you give me bad habits
Say you want me too make it main reason I aint have it
Main reason I aint did it had me fucking with pillies
Turn a ghost in the city like really
You gon make me keep my distance thats just how I feel
It don't take much for me to love you girl just keep it real
I'm in the mood to make a million
I cant be posted with the killers
I lost a couple to the streets it broke my heart I can not cap
Yeah I told you that I love you I can take that shit right back
Please don't come around me faking it baby keep it a stack
And keep it like that
Just keep it like that
Baby just keep it like that
How you my brother don't wanna see me win?
Make me keep my distance not fucking with them
I was lost for a minute
I had to get it right
I can not let them get too close they hurt me every time
You know what hurt the most? thats when you know they lie
But they gon look up in your eyes and say they love you right
I'm so tired of all these heartbreaks love gave me scars snakes
Can't hurt me again and I kept it real when they was all fake I swear they all strange
Don't wanna see me win
I was lost for a minute
I had to get it right
I can not let them get too close they hurt me every time
You know what hurt the most? thats when you know they lie
But they gon look up in your eyes and say they love you right
I'm so tired of all these heartbreaks love gave me scars snakes




Can't hurt me again and I kept it real when they was all fake I swear they all strange
Don't wanna see me win
