Limbo
Mishlawi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I ain't get nothin' of that
I hit you twice in a row
And shawty ain't callin' me back
Even if I was the one
She ain't want nothin' of that
I hit you twice in a row
And shawty ain't callin' me back
Limbo's all you know
How'd you go so low?
You're all I want
Limbo's all you know
Drag me to the floor
I'm so lost
Woah, Woah, Woah
Told me enough is enough
But I ain't get nothin of that
Even when they try to tell me what's up
Really was hoping you wasn't like that
See I could put you on li'l baby
And I'll make sure that you won't see my face (face)
Baby icy like Chicago, when she limbo man she set the bar low
Know I probably couldn't get with you can you show it say it like you fargo
How you shake it like it's harlem
How she leave me 'til tomorrow
Actin' like you want it back now when you do that limbo 'til it's all gone
Limbo's all you know
How'd you go so low?
You're all I want
Limbo's all you know
Drag me to the floor
I'm so lost
Woah, Woah, Woah
I don't know you anymore
Girl I can't look at your pictures with him what you fuck with me for?
Baby I'm faded I might call you up say I love you some more (yeah)
But if I see you together I swear oh god damn oh my lord
Damn oh my lord, bet you wish I was yours
Yeah, fuck what they said
They talkin' shit but got nothing on M, damn
And I can't pretend, if I ain't your man then I can't be your friend
Droppin' the top mamma hop in the Benz
Shawty she gone I don't know where she went
Limbo on fleek but she makin' no sense
Guess she give what she get
Limbo's all you know
How'd you go so low?
You're all I want
Limbo's all you know
Drag me to the floor
I'm so lost
Woah, Woah, Woah
Woah, Woah, Woah
The song "Limbo" by Mishlawi is about a tumultuous relationship that is stuck in a cycle of ups and downs. The first verse describes the singer not receiving a response from his partner after hitting them up multiple times. He acknowledges that he's been told "enough is enough" but continues to pursue the relationship. The chorus uses the metaphor of "limbo" to describe the feeling of being stuck and unable to move forward or backward. The singer feels lost in the relationship and like he's constantly being dragged down.
The second verse highlights the confusion and frustration that can come with trying to read a partner's signals. The singer notes that they were hoping their partner wasn't like that (meaning unresponsive or uninterested). He offers to help his partner improve their situation by "putting them on" and ensuring they won't see his face. The bridge of the song portrays the singer's heartache and uncertain feelings towards the relationship as he can't even look at his partner's pictures with her new partner.
Overall, "Limbo" touches on themes of toxic relationships, emotional exhaustion, and the feeling of being trapped in a cycle you cannot escape.

I also don't get it.
He's American.
He would probably get more fame if he was there.
