Head On
Noa Lauryn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just tell me what it is, I can't deal with this
You’re tumbling around the point
You got something to say, just tell me what it is
I am not the type to go out of my way
Of confrontation
No I’m the girl who likes to
I’m straight up, you know that
I’ll be honest even when I fuck up
And you can tell me what you want, I won’t budge
I promise
Don't take me for hiding
Double meaning I won't be misleading
No passive aggressing
Can you do the same thing too? ‘Cause
I don't have time for this
No I love you too much for this
No need to be like this
I promise this will work if we work on communication, yea
Might just take a while, but you know I have the patience, yea
‘Cause I am just a man that knows what he wants
I love it when you face all of those problems head on
The confidence was it for me
With those heels you look 6 feet
Foxy like the seventies
But honestly, you better me
That’s all a brother wants from this
Tryna match your confidence
If I don’t have the guts for this, I put it in a song like this
I am not the type to go out of my way
Of confrontation
No I’m the girl who likes to
Face her issues head on
I’m straight up, you know that
I’ll be honest even when I fuck up
And you can tell me what you want, I won’t budge
I promise, I promise
