Are You Ready
Heart 2 Heart Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Absorbing my poison through your skin pores
I argue it's the other way around, no
Narcissist tendencies and I won't admit (uh)
Take a look at my reflection just to test it
Tryna get you to forget all my bad deeds
Swimming in that tight pussy were my best days
They say that love is blind, it's your fault you caught me
I had my reasons girl, you made me feel lonely
Your friends want you to be with someone you don't love
It starts to feel like a love square or hexagon
It's damaging to you because I can't admit
I got bad habits myself
He said: I hate the fact you turned me to a monster
Blood drippin' off my fingers
I also hate the fact that you seeing other niggas
Bitch, I'm not the toxic one, you are
He said: I hate the fact you turned me to a monster
Blood drippin' off my fingers
I also hate the fact that you seeing other niggas
Bitch, I'm not the toxic one, you are
You don't seem to want to understand, baby
You just put on your boxing gloves and throw me in the ring like you're ready
You don't wanna be the one to breach the lease
I'll hold you even if it means we can't breathe
Be fallen soldiers where we thought we couldn't be
Drown in my poison 'til you cry out: save me
No matter what you do, you'll never forget me, no
Put it on God, I can guarantee
Tie a rope around my neck if you let me be
The fuck is breathing? Who the fuck needs breathing?
(Next message)
(Fuck you!)
(Next message)
(Go fuck yourself like for real...)
(Like, I been fucking waiting for so long for you to just gimme my fucking money back and so I can close our account)
(I just can't see why this fucking shit is going on)
How could you say that you loved me?
(Nah, cause like... Here goes the bank account...)
Not even two years no, but little as one year
Already laying down in the bed of someone else
Healing from the trauma that I inflicted on you
You know the scars I left on you will never truly heal
The manipulation, the broken nights
You will never truly heal
And the lack of effort, the lack of love
You will never truly heal
Tastes just like sweet murder and sweet sugar as I destroy your insides
Yeah, yeah
So does poison
Girl, you know you should run but why are you still here?
You know that you should be with anybody but me
Tastes just like sweet murder and sweet sugar as I destroy your insides
Yeah, yeah
So does poison
Girl, you know you should run so why are you still here?
You know that you should be with anybody but me
(Next message)
(Just fucking leave me alone)




(Like give me my shit back and fuck off)
(I'm so sick of this shit)
