Open Arms
SZA Lyrics
When you do your best you ca-, I done told you
When you do your best, hell, that's all you can do
You and me and anybody else
So they always start talkin'
Ooh
Runnin' away from where I'm from
Never can stay with no one
Loving you almost feels like something
When no ones around me, you lost and found me
With open, open, open, open arms (ooh)
Open arms, you keep me open
I'm so devoted
You keep me open, open arms
I'm so devoted to you, to you, to you
Spent your life bein' hopeless
Chokin' on insecurity
I know all this is bad
But, please, put a leash on me anyway
Who needs self-esteem anyway?
I hate myself to make you stay
Push me away, I'll be right here
With open, open, open, open arms (ooh)
Open arms, you keep me open
I'm so devoted
You keep me open, open arms
I'm so devoted to you, to you, to you
No matter what come between us, yeah, I decided (ayy)
I'm forever ridin' (whoa), you're forever guidin' (ayy)
Pull up on an opp, hit his curb up, slide it (brr)
Notice when you mad, ain't no words, just silence (ooh)
You my favorite color, now you seein' every shade of me
You say that I'm trippin', I hit back like, "Where you takin' me?"
Locked in for life, on God, no replacin' me
Consequences, repercussions, karma keep on changin' me
For you I try, face card valid, ID
C'est la vie, go to Paris, it ain't five-star, it ain't me
Over-solid, keep it concrete, I'ma bet it on your whole fee
Just don't switch sides, I could fire piece your wrist, AP
Through the ups and downs and all the heat
Take a turn and tell you what it be
Backshots make you feel relief, anything, just don't you ever leave
I guess I gotta go
I guess it's time to go
I gotta let you go
(I'm so devoted)
You keep me open
Gotta let you go, gotta let you go
I gotta let you go, I must
You're the only one that's holdin' me down
(You're the only one holdin' me down)
('Cause I'm the only one that's holdin' me down)

Lyrics
[Intro]
When you do your best you ca—, I done told you
When you do your best, hell, that's all you can do
You and me and anybody else
So they always start talking
[Verse 1: SZA]
I'm running away from where I'm from
Never can stay with no one
Loving you almost feels like something
When no one's around me
You lost and found me
I was surrounded
With open, open, open
[Chorus: SZA & Travis Scott]
Open arms (Ooh), open arms
You give me open, I'm so devoted
You keep me open (Ooh), open arms
I'm so devoted to you, to you, to you
[Verse 2: SZA]
Spent your life being hopeless
Choking on insecurity
I know, oh, this is bad
But, please, put a leash on me anyway
Who needs self-esteem anyway?
I hate myself to make you stay
Push me away, I'll be right here (Here)
With open, open, open
[Chorus: SZA & Travis Scott]
Open arms (Ooh), open arms
You give me open, I'm so devoted
You keep me open (Ooh), open arms
I'm so devoted to you, to you, to you
[Verse 3: Travis Scott]
No matter what come between us, yeah, I decided (Ayy)
I'm forever riding (Ride), you're forever guiding (Ayy)
Pull up on an opp, hit his curve up, sliding (Brr)
Notice when you mad, ain't no words, just silence (Ooh)
You my favorite color, now you seeing every shade of me
You say that I'm tripping, I hit back like, "Where you taking me?"
Locked in for life, on God, no replacing me
Consequences, repercussions, karma keep on changing me (Ooh yeah)
For you I trust, face card, valid ID (Ooh)
C'est la vie, go to Paris, it ain't five-star, it ain't me
Over-solid, keep it concrete (Ahh), I'm a bet it on your whole fee
Just don't switch sides, I could buy a piece, your wrist AP (Ahh)
Through the ups and downs and all the heat
Take a turn and tell you what it be
Backshots make you feel relief, anything, just don't you ever leave
[Outro: SZA & Travis Scott]
I guess I gotta go (Ooh)
I guess it's time to go
I gotta let you go
(I'm so devoted)
You keep me open (Ooh)
Gotta let you go, gotta let you go
I gotta let you go, I must
You the only one that's holding me down (Ooh)
Only one holding me down (Ooh, only one)
Cause you the only one that's holding me down

Like this song is so depressing to me, And it's not just because it's depressing it is the music and the way SZA did that high note on the hook and also the way Travis Scott did that high note on the end of his verse but it is a good song though i will admit that the song was cold!!!!💧💦🌧️⛈️🌦️😟😢😭
