the way
Kehlani Feat. Trey Songz Lyrics

Whoa, whoa
The singer is emphasizing the mood of the song

Oh, oh, oh
The singer is emphasizing the mood of the song

Lately, I've just been feelin' like
The singer is saying that they have been feeling a certain way lately

We might have to try somethin' else
The singer is suggesting that they need to try something different

'Cause it's too late for us
The singer is saying that it's too late for the relationship to work

Girl, I'm done fakin' love
The singer is saying that they can't fake love anymore

Got my mind made up and I can't do this no more
The singer has made up their mind and can't continue the relationship

But somehow you got me so unsure
The singer is unsure of their feelings despite having made up their mind

It goes two ways in love
The singer is saying that love is a mutual thing

Can't be the one chasin' us
The singer can't be the only one putting effort into the relationship

All my money and time, I can't spend it no more
The singer can't continue investing their money and time in the relationship

Can't be myself if I can't be yours
The singer can't be themselves if their partner doesn't accept them for who they are

Never been the one to play the fool
The singer has never been gullible or easily fooled

Always been the one to keep it cool
The singer has always been calm and collected

I'm a player, got me breakin' rules
The singer enjoys breaking the rules and being unconventional

Ever since I fell in love with you
The singer has been in love ever since they met their partner

Keep it one hunnid like the proof
The singer is vowing to be honest and truthful

Drinkin' all night, please excuse
The singer is apologizing for any erratic behavior caused by alcohol

Anything I'm 'bout to say to you
The singer is about to say something to their partner

I don't really got nothin' to lose
The singer has nothing to lose by speaking their mind

Swangin' and ridin', I pull up and slide in you
The singer is describing their car and the act of pulling up to their partner

Say it's just me but I feel like you're lyin'
The singer believes that their partner is lying to them

Your phone's goin' crazy, you switch it to silent
The singer noticed their partner's phone buzzing and the partner silenced it

I only do that when there's somethin' I'm hidin'
The singer is implying that their partner is hiding something

I've been drownin' tryna catch a wave
The singer is struggling to keep up with their partner's actions

You've been out here tryna run your game
The singer thinks their partner is playing games and trying to manipulate the situation

I've been thinkin' I should do the same
The singer is contemplating doing the same as their partner

But I could never put you through the pain
The singer doesn't want to hurt their partner

I don't wanna have to turn the page
The singer doesn't want to give up on the relationship

See which way the story 'bout to play
The singer doesn't know how the story of their relationship will end

We might have to try another day
The singer is suggesting that they should try again some other time

We gon' have to try another way
The singer is suggesting they need to try something different to make it work

Leanin' and drivin', I'll be there in five
The singer is on their way to see their partner

And you in a position before I arrive
The singer is implying that their partner is ready and waiting for them

And I don't need no guidance, you wet like Poseidon
The singer doesn't need anyone's help and describes their partner as being aroused

I wish it could be like this every time
The singer is expressing their desire for things to always be passionate like this

Too late
The singer is reiterating the idea that it's too late for their relationship
