Nicole Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
[Lil Mo Rap]
Yo what the deal son
Pulling up to my crib
If you ain't call before you came yo you ain't gettin in
Its just as simple as that
So don't get left around
You better get on you came with
Soon as I hear the bell ringing (ding) you got five seconds to count
(4 3 2)
To get off my cement
And uh wait for my place before I call Jake
And have you locked up on your birthday
And the keys thrown away
[Nicole - Verse One]
Boy I couldve sworn that I told you that
All those other phone numbers in my pager don't mean jack to me
So if you gonna start actin crazy
Save it
don't even try to play me for your own uncalled insecurities
[Chorus]
When all I ever do is give you my time (my time, my time)
We be fightin over the stupidest little things (little thing, little
things)
The way you actin lately, its not right (not right, no no its not
right)
So if you're gonna be shady
Then i can't be your lady
No more
[Nicole - Verse Two]
Boy how many time I gotta tell you that
When I'm on the road I can't answer my phone every single time it rings
Next time you leave a message, stop
Thinkin and screamin that I'm cheatin
You know that's not my steez
[Repeat Chorus]
[Nicole - Verse Three]
Baby what I do
To make you feel this way
I never thought you'd change
Espically towards me
you've been saying things, that's
Makin me believe, you're so insecure
And the reason is cause me
[Repeat Chorus x3]
The lyrics of Nicole's song "Nervous" represent the frustration of a woman who is tired of being accused and distrusted by her partner for no reason. In the opening of the song, Lil Mo warns anyone who wants to visit her house that they better call ahead of time or get left outside. This statement is symbolic of Nicole's decision to cut off anyone that doesn't trust her implicitly, including her partner. The chorus makes it clear that Nicole has given her partner all her time and attention yet he's nitpicking on little things and acting shady towards her. She's not willing to tolerate his insecurities and shadiness anymore.
In verse one, Nicole reminds her partner that she has already informed him that the other numbers on her pager don't matter to her, indicating her loyalty towards him. She pleads with him that if he's going to start acting crazy, he should save it and not play her for his insecurities. In verse two, Nicole tells her partner that she can't answer every call when she's on the road, and he needs to stop thinking and screaming that she's cheating because that's not who she is. In verse three, she asks him why he's acting this way towards her and making her believe that he's insecure because of her. Thus, the main message of the song is that Nicole is no longer willing to tolerate the distrust and insecurity in her partner.
Line by Line Meaning
Yo what the deal son
Hello, what is the matter?
Pulling up to my crib
Approaching my house
If you ain't call before you came, yo you ain't gettin in
If you did not call before you arrived, you will not be allowed inside
Its just as simple as that
The situation is uncomplicated
So don't get left around
Do not be left behind
You better get on, you came with
You should leave with whoever you arrived with
And be gone before sundown, because I'm comin out swinging
Depart before sunset or face consequences
Soon as I hear the bell ringing (ding), you got five seconds to count (4 3 2)
Once the doorbell rings, a short amount of time is given to leave
To get off my cement
To leave the property
And uh wait for my place before I call Jake
Wait in case an authority figure needs to be called
And have you locked up on your birthday
You may end up in jail
And the keys thrown away
The means to escape that jail will be removed
Boy I could've sworn that I told you that
I thought I had previously mentioned
All those other phone numbers in my pager don't mean jack to me
Those additional numbers are unimportant to me
So if you gonna start actin crazy, save it
If you are going to behave erratically, refrain from it
Don't even try to play me for your own uncalled insecurities
Do not attempt to manipulate me due to your own unneeded worries
When all I ever do is give you my time (my time, my time)
I dedicate a lot of my time for you
We be fightin over the stupidest little things (little thing, little things)
We argue over insignificant matters
The way you actin lately, its not right (not right, no no its not right)
Your recent behavior is not appropriate
So if you're gonna be shady, then i can't be your lady
If you are going to be dishonest, I cannot be your partner
Boy how many time I gotta tell you that
How many times do I need to inform you
When I'm on the road I can't answer my phone every single time it rings
While I am travelling, I cannot answer every incoming call
Next time you leave a message, stop thinkin and screamin that I'm cheatin
If you leave a message, avoid accusing me of infidelity
You know that's not my steez
That is not how I operate
Baby what I do to make you feel this way
What did I do to cause you to act like this
I never thought you'd change espically towards me
I never expected you to change, particularly with respect to me
you've been saying things, that's makin me believe, you're so insecure
Your words make me think you are very self-doubting
And the reason is cause me
I am the reason behind this behavior
