This your host DJ Sentra
How y'all doing on this fine summer evening
The time is now 7:50 and it's 76 degrees with a cool summer breeze
You're listening to hot 82.
4 and this smooth track I'm bout to
Play reminds me of my first girlfriend
Haha
But anyways (yeah) here's Ryan Trey Mutual Butterflies"
I give you parts of my heart I've never seen before
I let you paint my black and white feelings to pink and gold
Lil girl I let you drive my car
I let you see my room
I let you drink my juice, nobody drinks my juice
I let you get too comfortable (yeah)
You wasting my time
I know I shoulda hit you with that duck and roll (yeah)
And now my niggas like I told you so (yeah)
But then my momma told me real eyes realize
Baby realize this girl for you
You the only one trippin, she gave her soul to you
I guess she right, I mean she cool, I mean she tight
I mean if we speaking on facts I guess she's something that I like
Or maybe date
Or maybe wife
Oh I'm trippin'
Did I admit that I'm slippin for a girl like you?
I guess I could try to
The only problem is you make me nervous
But then you told me that I make you nervous too
I guess that's mutual butterflies
(Yeah)
(Yeah)
That's just the way it goes
You're what I'm waiting on
I'm just so used to hurting
This love just makes me nervous
But it's just mutual butterflies
(Yeah)
Aye
These love things are mutual, when they somewhat beautiful
Guess my heart could get used to you, feel you when you arrive
You ain't even touch the porch yet
I come to you when I'm upset
With you I can forget that I'm hurting
And when I'm low you pull me from the bottom
I know I get lost but I ain't really
Searchin when I know you got it (yeah)
Where have you been? I shoulda heard about it
Damn
I love it
Cause see when I'm with you, I feel a nigga lose his problems
Things you teach me, make me reconsider college
Too many colors used to make a nigga nauseous
Red, blue feelings make a nigga look like Compton
Bruce Lee kick it
Just call off of work if you with it
Babe, I've never had a you before
And you a present and a future goal
Cause I gave you my soul, you gave one back
Who woulda known that this was
Mutual butterflies
(Yeah)
You know who this for
(Right)
The lines in the first verse of "Mutual Butterflies" by Ryan Trey speak about the vulnerability one experiences when falling in love. The singer compares opening up to someone to exposing parts of oneself that have never been seen before. Giving someone access to your innermost thoughts and feelings involves trusting them with your deepest secrets and insecurities. The phrase "paint my black and white feelings to pink and gold" illustrates how the other person's presence can bring joy and color to one's life.
The lyrics also highlight the hesitation and anxiety that come with falling in love. The singer admits that the girl makes him nervous, and that he is tentative about opening up to her completely. He seems to be torn between the advice of his friends and the support of his mother. While his friends caution him against investing too much in the relationship, his mother urges him to "realize this girl for you." In the end, the singer acknowledges that the feeling of butterflies he gets around the girl is "mutual," suggesting that she too is experiencing the same uncertainty and excitement.
Overall, "Mutual Butterflies" captures the thrill and trepidation of falling in love. It speaks to the universal experience of vulnerability and trust that accompanies the journey towards intimacy.
