My Block
J. Slim Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey, um, sorry I missed your call earlier, I was doin' somethin' but
Yeah, um, back to what you were sayin' about goin' out
Yeah, I'm totally down for it
Yeah, and I'd really like that too...alright
Pick me up when you on my block
You look so proud when you show me off
And I, hate to admit it but I've never felt this
By 6 o'clock you was on my block
You saw my fit and said, "oh my god"
And I, hate to admit it when I go tell my friends
Shit, maybe I like you too
But shit, maybe we should just be cool
Oh shit, I think I'm catching feelings, boy
Yeah, I'm scared of this
Shit, maybe I like you too
But shit, maybe we should just be cool
Oh shit, I think I'm catching feelings, boy
Yeah, I'm scared of this
I don't know it's just--I really never felt this way before
And, I don't know... but it's something
Shit, maybe I like you too
But shit, maybe we should just be cool
Oh shit, I think I'm catching feelings, boy
Yeah, I'm scared of this
Shit, maybe I like you too
But shit, maybe we should just be cool
Oh shit, I think I'm catching feelings, boy
Yeah, I'm scared of this
I ain' tryna let you down, baby
You always got me when I'm down, baby
I hope you always come around, baby
And hope your feelings never change
I ain' tryna let you down, baby
You always got me when I'm down, baby
I hope you always come around, baby
And hope your feelings never change
Pick me up when you on my block
You look so proud when you show me off
And I, hate to admit it but I've never felt this
By 6 o'clock you was on my block
You saw my fit and said, "oh my god"
And I, hate to admit it when I go tell my friends
Shit, maybe I like you too
But shit, maybe we should just be cool
Oh shit, I think I'm catching feelings
Boy, I know I'm catching feelings for ya
Shit, maybe I like you too
But shit, maybe we should just be cool
Oh shit, I think I'm catching feelings, boy
Yeah, I'm scared of this
I ain' tryna let you down, baby
You always got me when I'm down, baby




I hope you always come around, baby
And hope your feelings never change
