Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uhhh uhhhh
Uhhhhh uhhhh
Uhhhh uh
Broke my heart one time but I won't let it eat me
She she changing her heart it's kinda like the seasons
Every time she leave she give me different reasons
So Tonight just tell me if you really mean it
If you're calling my phone then I'm speeding
Girl I really need you
And your love it got me feining girl bring me the needle
Every time that your not here I be in my bed anemic
Shivering straight to sleep because I really need you
Imma down the liter, hoping that I see her image
Ride round with the windows tinted
Drown In Hennessy till I'm finished
I ain't seen you in a minute, catch me up on what I been missing
Memories they steady slipping won't let go cause I relive them (Ayeee)
Broke my heart one time but I won't let it eat me
She she changing her heart it's kinda like the seasons
Every time she leave she give me different reasons
So Tonight just tell me if you really mean it
If you're calling my phone then I'm speeding
Girl I really need you
And your love it got me feining girl bring me the needle
Every time that your not here I be in my bed anemic
Shivering straight to sleep because I really need you
She ask me how I do I'm doing fine (Fine)
She look me in me eyes and see my lies(Lies)
I told her hop in the sit just come along for the ride
She rolling up my weed that's how you know she mine
She a dime, she dime yeah she fine
Yeah she mine yeah she mine
I'm just hoping I get it right this time
I'm hoping I see your face tonight tonight
This a different procedure, if your faking just keep it
Perk to face my demons, I might tell you my secrets
I been up for no reason, you even here when I'm dreaming
Talking to me while I'm sleeping, never thought I would be bleeding
Broke my heart one time but I won't let it eat me
She she changing her heart it's kinda like the seasons
Every time she leave she give me different reasons
So Tonight just tell me if you really mean it
If you're calling my phone then I'm speeding
Girl I really need you
And your love it got me feining girl bring me the needle




Every time that your not here I be in my bed anemic
Shivering straight to sleep because I really need you
