Don't Hate on Me
Jd Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You don't have to rob me
It's not really worth it
I only have credit cards
And I can just cancel them
Know that you needed cash
But what the fuck's up with that?
You can do what you want
But get away from my shit

Let's just go get a couch from IKEA
Not too expensive, just the right kind
Taking this home is gonna be a pain
I wish we could drive I'll call a Lyft
Don't park out there when it's dark outside
We might just get jumped, this spot is sketch
But it's really safe and everyone's insane
What made y'all crazy, no one's friendly

You don't have to rob me
It's not really worth it
I only have credit cards
And I can just cancel them
Know that you needed cash
But what the fuck's up with that?
You can do what you want
But get away from my shit (bitch)

Burnt all our cash and shit that won't last
We're totally broke and you call your dad
Breaking every rule is what we do the most
We broke Stephen's vase and stole Andy's clothes
Making things hard is everyone's delight
I won't do the same but stay inside
Nothing's really fun when everyone's the same
What made us crazy no one's friendly

You don't have to rob me
It's not really worth it
I only have credit cards
And I can just cancel them
Know that you needed cash
But what the fuck's up with that?




You can do what you want
But get away from my shit
