So I dream in color
I found you sleeping with another
Take my hand but don't pull me under
'Cause if I fall for you, it's gonna be trouble
And if I fall for you, there's gone be trouble

Girl I'm wondering, I'm just wondering
Is it just me or would you do the same thing to another kid?
Girl I understand if a heart is never broken
Where the hell the fun in it?
Got my shooters really wanna run in it
You're a nice girl, we just taking pics
You know I run with the intelligence
Man I swear the city hate the melanin
Just how I hate the weapons that they sellin' 'em
And I don't care what they tellin' now
I be sonning jokers, I got hella kids
Fucking with the clique and you're a skeleton
Put a kiss around my heart, Pelican
Got a couple secrets I don't tell my friends
Started walking slow and then I fell again
Like why
All these knifes started falling from the sky
Man, I'm diving, I survived
Why you trying to turn me into your guy
Baby, I'm just tryna catch your vibe

'Cause if I fall for you, it's gone be trouble
And if I fall for you there's going to be trouble

Girl I'm wondering, I'm just wondering
Is it just me or would you do the same thing to another kid
Girl I understand if a heart is never broken
Where the hell the fun in it?
Got my shooters really wanna run in it
You're a nice girl, we just taking pics
So you know I hated our relationship
And girl you know I run with the intelligence
Swear the city hate the watermelon and the melanin
Girl, your heart is open so I fell in it
I'ma follow the rules, then rebel again
As soon as I can get a whiff of freedom
All these girls you know I never need 'em, uh
Know you think I'm so conceited, my innocence will never be defeated
Lately I'm running from demons,
Been having trouble since I was a fetus (Jaden)
My heart is tatted with description, my chest is hurting
Girl, I'm just a bishop, had a problem listening the father figures
Now I'm on a wave,
Hope that God is with us, but I've calmed calmed down
Not as vicious, I'm just glad I got a kitchen pot to piss in
If I didn't that would mean I blew my riches
Screw these other girls,
Girl I know I'm trippin', girl you know I'm trippin' on you
I think you picked the wrong dude
All eyes on me, sippin', fall through it all
Oh, you don't know what I'm going through
The saddest shit is so true, that's why my soul is so blue

Thy air inspired God to make the breeze
Thy lips inspired God to make a Man
And from his rib an angel born as Eve
Formed into flesh and promised him her hand
Thy air inspired God to make the breeze
Thy lips inspired God to make a Man
And from his rib an angel born as Eve
Formed into flesh and promised him her hand

You won't wake up, why not?
He can't remember
He forgot
She killed him
He doesn't remember
He died before her
He doesn't remember
Can you here me?
Yeah, I can
Why?
He doesn't remember
What?
Come back to us
Where?
Where is he?




Right here
Your wake up call is coming

Overall Meaning

Jaden’s song “E” portrays his relationship with a girl who cheated on him. In the first verse, he explains that he dreams in color and discovered that his partner was sleeping with someone else. Still, he doesn’t want to be pulled under if he falls for her again. Jaden doesn't trust her and is wondering if she would cheat on him again. He expects to have fun in his relationships and is aware that his race is not favored in his city. In the chorus, he warns that falling for her would lead to trouble. The second verse reveals that Jaden hated their relationship, was conceited, and had trouble listening to father figures. He has a troubled life and is just glad to have basic necessities, such as a pot to piss in. He acknowledges his mistakes and believes that the girl picked the wrong guy.


In the bridge, Jaden uses biblical references to describe the girl’s beauty and how God created a man from Adam's rib. He is saying that the girl is unique and made for him, but she broke his heart. He repeats a part of the song where someone is trying to wake up, but they can't because they didn't remember what happened. Perhaps it is a metaphor for Jaden being stuck in the past and unable to move on from his ex.
