Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pool in my eyes, as you beg I testify that
I hate being alone, but you finally got me out my zone
I know and I miss you
Know when I'm tripping, oh, yes it's difficult
Thank God I'm Christian
Remember how this all begun, just us
You proved her right, every single night
Oh my, oh my, can't close my eyes
Can't open my eyes, don't know what to do
I'm in some kind of mood
You're so beautiful, you're so beautiful
We gotta listen to the old Kelly
You slipped out if you don't know already
Girl, I know you know already
Girl, I know you know already
Things are getting hot and heavy
Things are getting hot and heavy
Girl, I know you know already
Girl, I know you
Girl, I know you
Girl, I know you know already
What haven't we done before
What is not already mine?
Couldn't tell you what's not yours
You said that you think about me every day
Saturday to Saturday
You see that I've been going through it
Hoping everything's okay
I just want to let you know
Everything these days is textual
I just want to get a little sexual, with you
'Cause I remember way, way, back
With the waves under the wavecap
You were someone else's wife in fact
You didn't even look at me like that
Then it all just switched, over time
Step by step and you know what's next girl
I can't pretend
We gon' have to listen to some old Kelly
You slipped out if you don't know already
Girl, I know you know already
Girl, I know you know already
Things are getting hot and heavy
Things are getting hot and heavy
Girl, I know you know already
Girl, I know you know how it's gon' go down
I know you babe
Girl, I know you know already
What haven't we done before
What is not already mine?
Couldn't tell you what's not yours
Yeah, you know already
Six months since I've been back in the Six
I can't help but wonder how you've been babe
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
Wonder how you've been
I've been out in Bel-Air like Will was
These streets got so familiar
Malibu coast where I meditate
Book a plane home then I hesitate
Scared to see what I left behind
It's weighing heavy on my mind and
I can't help but wonder how you've been babe
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
Wonder how you've been, babe

Pool in my eyes, as you beg I testify that
As you plead with me, tears fill up my eyes and I promise that
I hate being alone, but you finally got me out my zone
I dislike being by myself, but you were able to break me out of my routine
I know and I miss you
I understand what's going on and I long for you
Know when I'm tripping, oh, yes it's difficult
You know when I'm struggling, and it's a challenging situation
Thank God I'm Christian
I'm grateful that I have faith in God
Remember how this all begun, just us
Let's think back to how it all started, just between you and me
My mama said you was bad news, like "dun-dun-dun-dun"
My mother warned me that you were trouble, as if signaling danger with sound effects
You proved her right, every single night
You proved her predictions correct, night after night
Oh my, oh my, can't close my eyes
Oh my goodness, I can't even shut my eyes
Can't open my eyes, don't know what to do
I'm so overwhelmed, I can't even open my eyes and I'm not sure what to do
I'm in some kind of mood
I'm in a particular state of mind
You're so beautiful, you're so beautiful
You're incredibly stunning, absolutely beautiful
We gotta listen to the old Kelly
Let's put on some classic Kelly music
You slipped out if you don't know already
Just in case you didn't realize, you left without a word
Girl, I know you know already
Girl, I know you're aware already
Things are getting hot and heavy
Things are getting intense and physical
What haven't we done before
What new experiences have we not shared yet
What is not already mine?
What do I not yet possess?
Couldn't tell you what's not yours
I couldn't say what belongs to someone else
You said that you think about me every day
You told me that you think of me on a daily basis
Saturday to Saturday
From one weekend to the next
You see that I've been going through it
You notice that I've been struggling
Hoping everything's okay
Hoping that everything is alright
I just want to let you know
I just want to inform you
Everything these days is textual
Communication these days is done through text
I just want to get a little sexual, with you
I just want to be intimate with you
'Cause I remember way, way, back
Because I remember a long time ago
With the waves under the wavecap
With the waves underneath our hats
You were someone else's wife in fact
You were actually married to someone else
You didn't even look at me like that
You didn't even glance at me in that way
Then it all just switched, over time
Then everything changed, gradually over time
Step by step and you know what's next girl
Gradually and you know what comes next, girl
I can't pretend
I can't pretend that everything is okay
Girl, I know you know how it's gon' go down
Girl, I know you're aware of how it will happen
Yeah, you know already
Yes, you are already aware
Six months since I've been back in the Six
It's been six months since I returned to Toronto
I can't help but wonder how you've been babe
I can't stop myself from thinking about how you've been, babe
Gotta let me know something
You need to inform me of something
Wonder how you've been
Wondering how you have been
I've been out in Bel-Air like Will was
I've been staying in Bel-Air like Will Smith did
These streets got so familiar
These roads are so familiar to me
Malibu coast where I meditate
I often meditate along the coast of Malibu
Book a plane home then I hesitate
I try to book a flight home, but then change my mind
Scared to see what I left behind
Afraid to see what I left behind
It's weighing heavy on my mind and
It's causing me to feel very burdened in my mind

Step by step and you know what's next girl
I can't pretend

Late night feeling tired worked myself out tireless I come back home to listen to this masterpiece peace automatically comes like waves at the beach while Drake soothingly sings into my ears all I can think about is what would I do without music...
