Ain't Together
King Princess Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'd love to see someone else call you
And all this in-between
You think it's hard for me to tell you're falling?
Or we're falling
Being chill, being chill with you
Oh, it kills, I ain't chill at all, at all
We say, "I love you", but we ain't together
Do you think labels make it taste much better?
Darling, do you think that if I talk enough
I will make you wanna be mine?
We ain't together
Cut off all these hoes
Baby you don't gotta worry 'bout nothin'
'Cause everybody knows
That you and I got that something
Being chill, being chill with you
Oh, it kills, I ain't chill at all, at all
We say, "I love you", but we ain't together
Do you think labels make it taste much better?
Darling, do you think that if I talk enough
I will make you wanna be mine?
We ain't together
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do, do)
And I can't watch this fall apart
We say, "I love you", but we ain't together
Do you think labels make it taste much better?
Darling, do you think that if I talk enough
I will make you wanna be mine?
'Til you don't say you and I ain't together, babe
Ain't together
Ain't together
In the song "Ain't Together" by King Princess, the artist explores the complexities and ambiguity of a romantic relationship. She acknowledges that she is with her partner, but they are not officially together, and the uncertainty of their situation is difficult for her to handle. The lyrics "And all this in-between, You think it's hard for me to tell you're falling?" indicate that the artist is uncertain if they are both moving towards a committed relationship, or if it is just a passing phase. The line "Being chill with you, Oh, it kills, I ain't chill at all" reveals the internal struggle of the artist, who tries to maintain a casual, cool persona to suppress her feelings, but is unable to do so.
The chorus of the song highlights the central theme of the track, which is the lack of an official label on the relationship. The lines "We say 'I love you' but we ain't together, Do you think labels make it taste much better?" suggest that despite their shared feelings, they are afraid to put a label on their relationship, as it may ruin the chemistry they have built up thus far. The artist wonders if using labels will make their connection stronger or weaker, and she is unsure how to proceed. The song concludes with the artist hoping that her partner will choose her and solidify their commitment.

I cannot bear to see this end

Until you no longer deny that we are not together
Ain't together
We are not in a committed relationship

You wanna get to know me
You memorized the lines of my thighs
I knew before you told me you'd get it right
And you took the dark for granted
And you love me like you promised your wife
It's almost like you planned it in the daylight
I like the way you say it
Tell me the words you told me that day
Maybe if I could believe it I could just stay
'Cause I like the way you do it
Yeah I like the way you move it baby show me the way
I like the way you get it on the freeway
And I wish I could change it
And we're always gonna be contaminated
And oh, I know what we need
You start letting me go
Our love is tainted
You said they'd be against us
I say, "You care too much what they say"
You said, "Do me a favor, give me some faith"
'Cause you promised me you'd do it
You said, "Baby, let me prove it, look at me in the face
This is the face of someone who loves you, babe"
And I wish I could change it
And we're always gonna be contaminated
And oh, I know what we need
You start letting me go
Our love is tainted
And I wish I could change it
And we're always gonna be contaminated
And oh, I know what we need
You start letting me go
Our love is tainted
And I wish I could change it
And we're always gonna be contaminated
And oh, I know what we need
You start letting me go
('Cause our love is tainted)

Almost 3 months ago, I called my straight best friend and told her we needed to figure out what we were gonna do about our friendship because we were fooling each other and I was deeply in love with her and couldn’t find a way to let that go without letting her go. By the end of that phone call, she asked me to be her girlfriend and I asked her to be mine and it’s been the happiest 3 months of my life. Especially being gay, love hasn’t come easy. It’s confusing and I’ve faced rejection more than anything else, but being with her makes me forget all of that because it’s been her all this time and I just needed to wait. Hope that reaches others, especially the queers. lol We’re on this Earth for so many reasons and one of them is to love, so once it’s there, don’t let it get away from you.

me: really not that interested in football players
me, after seeing king princess in a football uniform: oh, it's because most of the people i see in football uniforms are men. if i saw more women in football uniforms i would definitely be more interested.
Hat
@bruise scarr im sorry WHAT football..?
bruise scarr
Lingerie football
Women do play football
In a degrading way
That’s the only way
Sad and makes me kinda angry
Women play football but they still gotta be half naked to play and they have to prove that they are tough but still feminine
Bullshit
But it’s real
