Lopez On The Runway Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

“Shalom”

Did it matter to you?
It don't mean a thing to me
Cause I've spent my time, I've spent my time on useful things
Like calling you, at 3 am
Just to say, I think we're better of that way
Calm me down now, calm me down




Calm me down now, call me over
Cover me in your dust

Confidence is everything in life. Yes, you have to be beautiful to be a model but if you don't have confidence, forget it.

@SheWhoWalksWithLucifer

Right? Bc her face is so striking and almost cat-like. I was expecting something completely different.
