About You
J-Dub Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got productive mornings, I spend my nights alone
So if you're looking for me, I'm sorry I'm not home
You know I hit the city the streets be calling me
So if I'm being honest think you're the one I need
Caught in a situation we out here living life
Cause all that matters baby is that you live it right
So if it doesn't happen it wasn't meant to be
You know deep down inside we're meant to be free
I can't believe it happened again
It always starts the same way it ends
I'm thankful for the time that we spent
I'm sorry nah but we can't be friends
It's Mr. gas addict, mad savage, riding with my black glasses
And I got a bad baddie sitting by my side supporting all of my bad habits
Thinking back at it you stole my heart
And all of my hoodies and you would jack jackets
Then I got my heart broken I just laugh at it
Now everybody wanna hump me like a jack rabbit
Can't think of a time when I was last happy
I trusted you to have my back but you was back stabbing
Man that's really crazy to me
You always think the worst and manifest the craziest things
Don't wanna hear another word unless you making it right
You only got this one moment so just say what you like
And at the end of the night I might just see you again
Psych you thought but it's the thought that makes me think that it's dead
And so listen instead I'm gonna leave you alone
So do the same and hit the road don't ever hit up my phone
Bye
I can't believe it happened again
It always starts the same way it ends
I'm thankful for the time that we spent
I'm sorry nah but we can't be friends
Now if I choose to save ya, I don't need back any favors
I don't need to pick a flavor cause I live la vida loca
I just need the paper cause the past turned into vapor
Not my crush I'm not a player
See ya later alligator
Esta loca
You could take the win I take my losses
Whatever that you need to say that helps rebuild ya conscious
With it came a lesson I hope that you quit the nonsense
Still I pray to God that you can make it through the hardships
That's hard shit
I can't believe it happened again
It always starts the same way it ends




I'm thankful for the time that we spent
I'm sorry nah but we can't be friends
