Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ya gon' feel this shit man
I know yeah yeah
I got a dead heart yeah
I got a dead heart and I'm feeling like I'm buried alive
I feel so sorry for you baby, but I'm broken inside
You told me you ain't tryna waste my time
But I still can't get you off my mind
I wish you would stay for the night
I wish I could hold you tight
I wish I would get along with my life
But I gotta work longer than 9 to 5
I just wanna make you smile on the regular
Girl you know why I should better not fall in love
I bless whatever in the sky above
I think that I've been hurt enough
Got a dead heart and I'm feeling like I'm buried alive
I feel so sorry for you baby, but I'm broken inside
You told me you ain't tryna waste my time
But I still can't get you off my mind
I got a dead heart and I'm feeling like I'm buried alive
I feel so sorry for you baby, but I'm broken inside
You told me you ain't tryna waste my time
But I still can't get you off my mind
My head tells me it's time for me to change that
Gotta make all these hits until the sun comes up
I'm never gonna give up yeah, I know me well
Don't even try to offer, I ain't gonna sell
Save my bands cause it still feels like I'm dreaming
You'll only reach the top if you keep believing
Just mark my words and wait wait wait till it's done
You say I'm up but I feel it hasn't even begun
I just wanna make you smile on the regular
Girl you know why I should better not fall in love
I bless whatever in the sky above
I think that I've been hurt enough
I got a dead heart and I'm feeling like I'm buried alive
I feel so sorry for you baby, but I'm broken inside




You told me you ain't tryna waste my time
But I still can't get you off my mind
