Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All these
Deep thoughts in my head got me tweaking
Late nights, now that I'm alone, should be sleeping
Plenty more women in the sea, but I'm sinking
Sinking in the waters where these sharks think they eating
They eating
Now I'm doing shows mid season
Working like a dog, but I ain't got no reason
I loved you girl, you were my reason
Now my hearts looking like my neck... freezing

Now you're with that n**** you was sneaking
I'm tweaking, thought you were my girl, never leaving
Took 2 years to earn my trust then you cheated
I can't believe I ever took you to the east end

So Its don't trust b******, they be eating
I Had to cut her off, we ain't speaking
Now she want the smoke, now we beefing
She ain't really bout it she got asthma and she vegan
I'm leaving, b**** I'm out of here like im Wheezy
Waited too long, I should've listened to Beezy
B**** you got too many problems, need a meeseeks
And I move like a Mac, you're a PC

All these
Deep thoughts in my head got me tweaking
Late nights, now that I'm alone, should be sleeping
Plenty more women in the sea, but I'm sinking
Sinking in the waters where the sharks think they eating.
They eating
Now I'm doing shows mid season
Working like a dog, but I ain't got no reason
I loved you girl you were my reason
Now my hearts looking like my neck

I mean, life goes on anyways but... it's whatever

All these, new girls got my phone going crazy
Always had the sauce now it turned in to gravy
I flexed up, TTC to Mercedes
I'm next up, these vvs going brazy
Amazing, but my life isn't wavy
I Ain't Russ but I'm missing you crazy
I broke a good girls heart now she hate me
(Cause she ain't nothing quite like you) Yeah

Now I'm
Moving ruthless
Shordie clueless
Bought a new whip
And it's roofless
I don't sleep but when I do I dream lucid
I don't need love
F*** a Cupid

And I wash away the pain with some new drip
And a new b**** that runs game like she toothless
It's useless, call me tre Wes cause I do this
Its f***** up, but I already knew this

All these
Deep thoughts in my head got me tweaking
Late nights, now that I'm alone, should be sleeping
Plenty more women in the sea, but I'm sinking
Sinking in the waters where the sharks think they eating
They eating
Now I'm doing shows mid season
Working like a dog, but I ain't got no reason




I loved you girl you were my reason
Now my hearts looking like my neck... freezing
