Stress"
oh how could love
end up like this
when you got so close
as if its just you and me
you are my life
or how you were mine
my love has made me blind
as much as i
try to cope without
but reality keeps knocking
calling
oh how got me falling
am so down on my knees
as i try to plea
i lie awake
to think about
how you might be feeling
i know its too late
to keep your heart from sealing
dont tell me
if there's someone else babe
dont tell me if am not the type
you are lady
i know babe
good love is hard to find
dont wanna know if
there's someone else behind
will break my heart to know
that something's really wrong
don't leave me here
stressing all alone
oh babe
dont leave me here
stressing all alone
oh
darling i will never
forget how sweet when the moments
coz the love that we have was
somewhat very special
coz a good heart this days
can be so hard to find
i know you got me hanging
on the thinest thread
well am so in dismay
and now you got me longing
for the one thing
I get caring
is your sweet embrace
i lie awake
to think about
how you might be feeling
i know its too late
to keep your heart from sealing
dont tell me
if there's someone else babe
dont tell me if am not the type
you are lady
i know babe
good love is hard to find
dont wanna know if
there's someone else behind
will break my heart to know
that something's really wrong
don't leave me here
stressing all alone
girl
remember when we first met
me know that you and me want it
dont really bother what the people said
but me you give me stress
well
with no address
living with all this regret
treat me like a dirty nothing




rudedy boy
then man savy die

Overall Meaning

Onetox's song "Stress" talks about the complexities of love and how it can turn sour with time. The singer seems to have been deeply in love with someone he addresses as "babe" or "lady," but now that relationship has ended, he is left grappling with the heartache and loneliness that comes with it. He reminisces about how special their love was, and how it's tough to find something like that in today's world. The singer also wonders if there is someone else or something else that caused the rift between him and his former lover. However, he pleads with her not to reveal any hurtful truths as he simply cannot bear the pain. In the end, the singer is left alone, reminiscing about his lost love and the stress it has caused him.


The song is a soulful and emotional expression of the human experience in love. It is relatable to many people who have gone through breakups and the pain that comes with it. It's also a testament to the power of music to evoke deep emotions and empathy from listeners.
