In My Feelings
Miraa May Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
(TSB)
I'm passionate
Little bad thing from the north side (ah)
So compassionate
And I feel everything from the inside
No, I'm not having it
Too proud to beg, then I'ma make you fall on your knees
Tell me that you need me, yeah
Like how I did that way back when
I took the fall, you took offence
And why pretend
When it's bad it's fucking bad
And when it's good it's heaven-sent, yeah
Give it to 'em on a platter
Seems like what a woman truly wants just never really matters
It's a shame
Would you treat your mother the same?
I don't like all of the mix up
I just want you for you to fix up, oh yeah
I let you get me in my feelings (feelings)
I didn't want you to see this (yeah)
I thought that we could reason (yeah, yeah)
And I needed somebody to believe in
And you switched up on me just like the seasons
And I don't need this, no
I don't need this, no, no-no-no-no-no-no
I need a vacation
So sick of waiting
For my world to be better
While my brain is degrading
And all my peoples is dying and these dickheads keep trying
Like don't you know there's bigger problems going on right now?
I should be at home, but I'm up writing songs right now
No one can't gaslight me (no way)
My energy (uh-huh) is like diamonds, won't you try it
Sit next to me, yeah, hear my story, yeah
Would you cry then? Would you try then, yeah?
I let you get me in my feelings
I didn't want you to see this
I thought that we could reason
I needed somebody to believe in
And you switched up on me just like the seasons
And I don't need this, no
I don't need this, no, no-no-no-no-no-no
Ooh-ooh, you say you're in love
But why would you run away like I don't know who you are?
Ooh-ooh, patience with me, yeah
Ooh-ooh, that's all I need, oh
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
I let you get me in my feelings
I didn't want you to see this
I thought that we could reason
And I needed somebody to believe in
And you switched up on me just like the seasons
And I don't need this, no
I don't need this, no, no-no-no-no-no-no
I don't need this, I don't need this, no
I don't need this, I don't need this, no, no, no
This shit bring on anxiety
I don't need this, can't help me now
Oh, I don't need this, need help right now
Oh, I can't breathe, I need, can't pretend
