Moodring
SZA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Verse:]
Moodring, (moodring)
Moodring, (moodring)
It can be difficult but sheโ€™s still the same song
Feeling indifferent, I change if you say so

[Hook:]
Moodring
I mistook the two of you
Moodring
What are you worried to do?

[Verse 2:]
If you take a little bit
Pulling on the same rope
We fell right into it
I knew there was no hope

[Hook:]
Moodring
I mistook the two of you
Moodring
What are you worried to do?

[Outro + Instrumental]
Moodring
