Getaway
L.T.D. Lyrics

So you're standing at the edge of the water tryna find a getaway
You're trying to escape from a situation that's causing you pain and you're searching for a way out.

And you know that you can not trust your lover and you're never feeling safe
You're aware that your partner is unreliable and you never feel secure in the relationship.

It don't matter how many times that you're wishing you know that he'll never change
No matter how much you hope and wish, you understand that your partner is unlikely to change for the better.

But you won't get away
Despite your efforts, you currently can't successfully escape your problems.

It's the top of the mornin
It's early in the morning.

He telling you give him some top in the mornin
Your partner is asking for sexual favors soon after waking up.

He making you ride on the top of the mornin
Your partner is requesting sexual activity early in the morning when you're still tired and unprepared.

Just opened your eyes and you ain't even yawn yet
You're still sleepy and haven't even had a chance to wake up properly.

Saying you feel used
You're expressing how your partner is treating you as if you're only useful for sexual gratification.

Don't know the real you
Your partner isn't taking the time to get to know you on a deeper level and just views you as a tool for their pleasure.

Not feeling alive the pain that's inside don't know what's the real truth
You're feeling emotionally drained and struggling to understand what you truly feel about the situation.

You keep holding onto something that won't last
You're trying to cling onto a relationship that's doomed to fail long-term.

This that kind of thing that you leave in the past
Your current situation is something that should be left in the past and moved on from.

Not judging your character mmm
The singer wants to make sure that they're not being judgmental towards you.

You've put up a barrier mmm
You've become guarded and put up a wall to protect yourself.

Don't talk to your friends you ain't meeting ends you look like you've run out of gas
You're not confiding in your friends and it's starting to show in your appearance and demeanor.

We know that you're trapped but you're forced to keep silent
Others understand that you're feeling stuck, but you feel like you have to keep your problems to yourself.

Bags underneath your eyelids, long nights you've been crying
You're experiencing physical symptoms of stress like bags under your eyes and sleepless nights spent crying.

See why you gotta hide it nigga always keep you lying said you never wanna fight, why you always in violence
Your partner's behavior is causing you to lie and hide your true feelings. They claim they don't want to argue, but their actions show otherwise.

I don't mean no pressure I ain't tryna press ya just know that I'm ready whenever
The artist is assuring you that they're not trying to push you, but they are available to talk whenever you're ready.

You ready wanna talk cuz I'm ready to walk when you wanna share your vendetta
The artist will listen to you and support you through your struggles and anger towards your partner.

You call out of work feeling under the weather telling your boss that you're better than ever
You're skipping work and pretending that you're doing fine, when in reality you're struggling with personal issues.

But everybody who cares can see that you're having trouble tryna keep it together
Those who care about you can see that you're struggling with trying to hold yourself together mentally and emotionally.

You have been drowning in a river of your own tears
You've been experiencing intense sadness and crying frequently.

That you've been holding in for years
Your pain and sadness have been building up inside you for a long time.
