Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This time's not done, but I'm drinking now
Unless they find ya', intertwine with me
She don't like what's she's forced to see
But I could've got started on her
She knows what I'm putting on her
Girl I stay high, never sober
'Cause you're so jealous of me
Oh you're so jealous of me, jealousy over me
(Why you so jealous) over me (why you so jealous?)
(Why you catchin' feelings) jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
(Why you so jealous) over me (why you so jealous?)
(Why you catchin' feelings) jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
(Why you so jealous) over me (why you so jealous?)
(Why you catchin' feelings) jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
Jealousy over me, jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
Whoa, oh, oh oh, yeah oh oh oh, yeah oh oh yeah
I've been runnin' the stage, you cannot tell me I am fake
My main girl still the realest shit,
Love me when they say I ain't shit
She gon' spend her cash when I'm broke
She gon' whip through the 6ix and more
'Member the days we ain't had no home?
Oh mom, I gotta show these niggas what's good
Mama, there ain't no bringin' me down
Soldier in this bitch, I'm gunnin' them down
King with no crown, they still gon' look at me now
I been too drunk, I'm way too fucked
How you think I'm singing this shit my dog
I am not normal, you do not know what I'm on
Money callin' up in the party, you know
I been turnt up in the club in the max
This is my life nigga don't you forget (jealous of me)
Jealousy over me
(Why you so jealous) over me (why you so jealous?)
(Why you catchin' feelings) jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
(Why you so jealous) over me (why you so jealous?)
(Why you catchin' feelings) jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
(Why you so jealous) over me (why you so jealous?)
(Why you catchin' feelings) jealousy over me (why you catchin' feelings?)
(Why you so jealous) jealousy over me, (why you so jealous?)
Jealousy over, oh yeah, oh yeah
Why you catching feelings, how you gettin' jealous?
