Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Swear that I’m good to go, just need your permission baby
I see you got the dro, I brought sumn for sippin, maybe
Too good at snatchin souls, I love the emission, lady
Hope you don’t mind my whole reconnaissance mission
Been tryna get the cookie, jar secured with a lid
Been tryna get it open, getchu open and willin
It’s dark, but I made it through the walls I been feelin, yeah yeah
I ain’t like all them other guys
You said I give you butterflies
I ain’t like all them other guys
You right, that’s cuz I’m crazy, I’m fuckin crazy
Call me cute, and you my bae, you my fuckin baby
Get too in over my head with infatuation
Get too in over my head with infatuation
But you said I give you butterflies, or somethin
I ain’t like them other guys, or somethin
Said I give you butterflies, or somethin
I’ma give you butterflies, or somethin else
In the first verse, Notebook P is expressing his desire for the listener's attention and approval. He suggests that he is ready for a romantic relationship with them, but only with their permission. He notes that he has brought something to drink (presumably to share), indicating his willingness to create a comfortable and enjoyable atmosphere. He also mentions his ability to captivate and win others over, referring to his skill at "snatching souls" and enjoying the reaction he receives from them.
In the second verse, Notebook P explains that he has been on a mission to win over the listener's affection. He compares this mission to securing a jar with a lid, emphasizing his determination and effort to succeed. He wants to open up their heart and make them willing to accept his love. Despite facing challenges and walls along the way, he has overcome them and is now ready to give the listener butterflies, which symbolize the excitement and nervousness that come with new love and infatuation. He emphasizes that he is different from the other guys the listener may have encountered, setting himself apart as someone special.
The chorus repeats the idea that Notebook P gives the listener butterflies, confirming that he evokes strong emotions within them and sets himself apart from other romantic prospects. He acknowledges the listener's perception of him as being crazy, but he also appreciates their endearing terms of affection, such as being called cute and their baby. However, Notebook P admits that he sometimes becomes too enamored and infatuated, potentially losing himself in the intensity of his emotions.
The final lyrics express Notebook P's determination to give the listener butterflies, but also hint at something more. By mentioning "something else," he implies that he has more to offer than just infatuation. He wants to offer more depth and substance to their connection, showing that his intentions go beyond fleeting emotions.
