Virgo Tendencies
Keke Palmer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you wear your heart on your shoulder
I got Virgo tendencies
Cross me once and it's over
Sippin' Henny like a remedy
Put my heart on my shoulder
I got Virgo tendencies
When I cut you off it's really oh, oh
Look, don't get deaded
I put you in the morgue, yeah, I said it
Tense energy around me, I fed it
Sent you hella texts, you just read it
Brick wall around my heart how'd you get in?
Sittin' here regrettin' our connection
Why you dancin' like some diamonds round my question?
Finna lose all this greatness your obsession
Should prolly always wear long sleeve
When you wear your heart on your shoulder
I got Virgo tendencies
Cross me once and it's over
Sippin' Henny like a remedy
Put my heart on my shoulder
I got Virgo tendencies
When I cut you off it's really over
When I found you, found a serious fool
If you tryna play me you delirious too
And on God and my momma, I'm done
And that's period, pooh
And knowin' me, you end up where you supposed to be
You had a Keke, nice knowin' me
All you fuck boys like some groceries
You had your Kodak moment, now go roll in peace
Finally met the real you, thanks for showin' me
Nigga wish you'd do me wrong, you a ghost to me
No more ghosts for me, Virgo tendencies
Cross me and I freeze
Should prolly always wear long sleeve
When you wear your heart on your shoulder
I got Virgo tendencies
Cross me once and it's over
Sippin' Henny like a remedy
Put my heart on my shoulder
I got Virgo tendencies
When I cut you off it's really over
I got Virgo tendencies
Cross me once and it's over
Put my heart on my shoulder
I got Virgo tendencies
In Keke Palmer's song "Virgo Tendencies," she reveals that she has Virgo tendencies, which means that she is detail-oriented and can be critical, but also loyal and reliable. She warns that if you cross her, she will cut you off mercilessly, and she wears her heart on her sleeve so she should probably always wear long sleeves to protect herself. Keke also mentions that she sips Henny like a remedy, possibly referring to using alcohol to deal with her emotions.
The second verse shows some of Keke's bitterness and hurt from a past relationship. She feels like she let her guard down and let someone in who didn't deserve it. She confronts this person with a brick wall around her heart, and is regretful of her connection with them. She also acknowledges her own tendency to cut people off quickly, which may have contributed to the downfall of the relationship. Keke concludes by saying that if someone crosses her, they become a ghost to her, highlighting her strong Virgo tendencies.
