Spin the Block
RAAHiiM Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh and I just touched down
On Pearson girl I'm home
Been too long I thought that you should know oh
I whipped that shit way out girl
Had me locked at the boarder
Feeling no remorse
But you caught me at a uh
For all I've done
Oh oh
There's just never a way around for me
You never wait around for me
Oh used to hold it down for me
Need you to spin the block on me
Once I get home
Oh treat me like there's no one left
Oh baby don't leave this on read
All the things I should've said
Pictures make your life look way too perfect
Know you well I see behind your curtain babe
It's so hard to tell from all that
And you do the most to fall back
But you caught me at a
Wait aren't these tears enough
For all I've done
Oh oh oh
There's just never a way around
You never wait around for me
Oh, used to hold it down for me
Need you to spin the block on me
Once I get home
Oh treat me like there's no one left
Oh baby don't leave this on read
All the things I should've said
Once I get home
Oh treat me like there's no one left
Oh baby don't leave this on read
All the things I should've said
Once I get home
Oh, baby once I
Once I
Oh no don't oh no don't oh no don't
RAAHiiM's song Spin the Block is about coming back home after being away for a while and realizing that you still have feelings for someone you left behind. The singer just landed at Pearson Airport and feels like it's time to come clean about what happened when he was gone. He admits that he got caught up in some illegal activity ("whipped that shit way out girl, had me locked at the border, feeling no remorse") but he's also feeling emotional ("aren't these tears enough for all I've done"). The person he left behind used to hold it down for him but now he feels like she's moved on ("you never wait around for me"). He asks her to "spin the block" on him, meaning to come around and talk to him when he gets home, hoping that she'll still have feelings for him and won't just leave him on "read" (when someone receives a message but doesn't respond).
Throughout the song, RAAHiiM refers to the person he left behind as "girl" and "baby," showing that he has an intimate and close relationship with her. He also recognizes that sometimes social media can be deceiving ("pictures make your life look way too perfect") and he wants to have a real conversation with her to clear things up ("all the things I should've said"). Despite admitting that he messed up, he's still hoping for a second chance with the person he left behind.

I have just landed
On Pearson girl I'm home
I am in Pearson and I feel at home
Been too long I thought that you should know oh
It has been too long since we spoke and I want you to know
I whipped that shit way out girl
I brought out my stuff and showed it off to you
Had me locked at the boarder
I was stuck at the border
Feeling no remorse
I don't feel guilty about what I did
But you caught me at a uh
But you caught me in a moment of vulnerability
Wait aren't these tears enough
Aren't my tears enough to show how sorry I am

All the things I should've said
I should have expressed my feelings better
Pictures make your life look way too perfect
Your social media pictures create an unrealistic image of your life
Know you well I see behind your curtain babe
I know you well and can see through your facade
It's so hard to tell from all that
It is difficult to judge the situation from the outside
And you do the most to fall back
You try hard to distance yourself from me
Baby once I
Once I am back
Oh no don't oh no don't oh no don't
Don't do it, don't do it, don't do it

Oh, and I just
Oh, and I just touched down on Pearson, girl, I'm home
Been too long, I thought that you should know, oh
I whipped that shit way out, girl
Had me locked at the boarder
Feelin' no remorse
But you caught me at aβ, uh
Wait, aren't these tears enough
For all I've done
There's just never a way around for me
You never wait around for me
Oh, used to hold it down for me
Need you to spin the block on me
Once I get home
Oh, treat me like there's no one left
Oh, baby, don't leave this on read
All the things I should have said
Pictures make your life look way too perfect
Know you well I see behind your curtain baby
It's so hard to tell from all that
You do the most to fall back
( Tell me if my love ain't enough)
You caught me at a- uh,
Wait aren't these tears enough
For all I've done
There's just never a way around
You never wait around for me
