Distance
Nick O.D Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I ain't rapping I'm trapping i'm trying to get it gone today
I got caught up with both of my bitches ain't no what to say
I just got in a fight with a nigga fuck up out my face
Jersey nigga this shit changed when I moved across the state
And I still would move some weight
I would still serve the gas I don't like to take a break
Your last nigga was a joke now I think your ass a prank
I'm a be on TV like my name Lorenz Tate
Had a high speed with Buck yea we had to do the race
If you ever turned your back I'm a rub it in your face
Caught a nigga out of bounds out that boy up in his place
I been shooting for the stars so right now I need the space
Niggas claim that they've been eating but all that I see is salad
I know I be at the top I just had to work on my talent
I been wrecking shit like ralph
She always asking who I'm smashing
She like blanco why the fuck would you break the shit we established
Cause right now the time is rough but i'm knowing that you could manage
I'm trying to get a plate ain't talking ceramic
Right now Im local but soon be over the planet
And you would think I'm at home base the way I ran it
I hope that none these cats is tryna copy
Ain't no photo credit cause they always tryna crop me
I pick the hardest beats cause it remind me how my heart beat
Stash spot in the beamer we don't put shit under car seats
Other day I had a dream of niggas tryna harm me
All these heads around but I can't let none of them fraud me
I used to hear some shots but on the stage I hear applauding
Planted all the seeds you see me growing like a garden
Shawty told me drop more music these niggas garbage
It's only been a year Im way ahead of where I started
Way ahead of where I started
Got to get it right I know my name been getting tarnished
Our relationship is just a part of shit that scarred me
We moved from the bricks and then we settled down in Orange
My shit having meaning niggas capping in the chorus
I been in my feelings in a room like Marvin's




I stay with my twin you'd think my last name Morris
I wouldn't take it there cause I be taking shit the farthest

Line by Line Meaning

I gotta keep my distance from you
I need to avoid being close to you


You're not good for me
Being with you has negative consequences for me


Won't sell my life short for you
I won't sacrifice my well-being for you


Cause you won't let me be free
You prevent me from experiencing personal freedom


I was in a real dark place
I was in a state of depression or despair


When you and me first met
At the beginning of our relationship


Not sure what I wanted of you and if I was ready yet
I was uncertain about my desires and readiness for commitment with you


But you clawed and pushed and made it in my system
You forcefully entered my life and became a part of it


And I can't just get you out
I am unable to easily remove you from my life


Living too high to feel so low
Despite appearing to have a good life, I still feel miserable


I gotta let you go
I need to end our relationship


Something keeps drawing me close to you
There is an inexplicable force that attracts me to you


Can't shake this feeling
I am unable to rid myself of this sensation


We not on the same page
We have different goals or viewpoints


Only gave you a part of me but instead you took the whole thing
I only intended to share a portion of my life with you, but you consumed everything


Defiled my temple and kept me on the edge of reality and insanity
You violated my body and mind, causing me to lose my sense of what is real


I shoulda known better
I should have been wiser in my decisions


Shouldn't taken you into my space and be a homewrecker
I made a mistake in letting you into my life and causing disruption


Keeping you around is suicide, that make me unsettled
Being around you is self-destructive and makes me feel uneasy


Hit an all time low stay paranoid and cave in to the pressure
I have reached my lowest point and am anxious and unable to withstand the difficulties


But destroy me? No never
I will not let you ruin or harm me


But I'm addicted
Despite the negative effects, I still have an intense desire for you


To you, to you
This addiction is directed towards you


Still addicted
I am still unable to break free from this addiction
