After a few years of releasing singles both commercially and on her SoundCloud (including the song "Good Morning"), Wrice finally released her debut album Overgrown on March 19, 2021. Executive produced by Dernst "D'Mile" Emile II, the album was supported by the singles "So So Sick" and the Freddie Gibbs-featured single "On One"; and featured guest appearances from Lucky Daye, Westside Gunn, Masego, KAYTRANADA and Devin Morrison.
Blurred Lines
Joyce Wrice Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tryna mess up what's already a good thing
How is it supposed to feel?
Whatever happens, let it happen
Just gotta look out for attachment
Why fix what ain't broken?
Just don't think so much right now
What are we trying to say?
What if we do what comes to mind?
And whatever we're trying to say
Hope it don't blur these
Lines
Lines
Go with your heart, not with your mind
Sometimes I need to jump in the fire
Rolling the dice, blurring the lines
I don't wanna live in denial, ooh
Just don't think so much right now
It won't make no sense anyway
(What are we trying to say?) What are we trying to say?
What if we do what comes to mind?
And whatever we're trying to say
Hope it don't blur these (hope it don't blur these)
Lines (lines)
Lines
Hope it don't blur these
Lines
Can you tell me, how do we define (these blurry lines, blurry lines?)
I don't know what we might find (behind these blurry lines)
What are we trying to say? (What are we trying to say?)
What if we do what comes to mind?
(What if we do it, what if we do it, yeah?)
And whatever we're trying to say (whatever we're trying to say)
Hope it don't blur these (hope it don't blur these)
Lines (lines)
Lines
Lines
Lines getting blurry now
Got my mind in a hurry now
In lane we ain't used to
I don't wanna slow it down
I'm in it if you with it
Them seconds turn to minutes
Them minutes turn to hours
But we're blowing loud
What are you trying to say?
Some things you can't explain
In this song, Joyce Wrice addresses the idea of navigating a relationship that is already going well, and the fear of potentially ruining it by overthinking and analyzing every aspect. She tells her partner that they don't have any business trying to mess up what's already working, and that they should just let things happen naturally without worrying about getting too attached. She tries to encourage her partner to follow their heart instead of their mind, to take risks and roll the dice, hoping that everything works out in the end without blurring the lines of their relationship.
The lyrics reflect the feeling of uncertainty and hesitation that comes with trying to balance the desire to express oneself and the fear of causing damage to a good situation. The main message of the song is to not overthink and just take everything one step at a time, in the hope that the lines of their relationship stay clear.
