IV
School [18]-[17] Lyrics

Come on, come on, come on
Encouraging the person to communicate

I'll never know if you don't tell me boo
The singer cannot guess what the person is thinking and needs them to speak up

Shawty, hear me out
Addressing the person affectionately and asking for their attention

Is you tryina phase me
Asking if the person is purposefully trying to mess with the artist's head

Blowin up my phone on a daily basis
The person is constantly contacting the artist

And bombarding me with questions this shit crazy
The person is asking too many questions which is becoming overwhelming

You ex's did you dirty
The person has been hurt in past relationships

You must be tired of hurtin
The person has had enough of being hurt

But that ain't no excuse for pressing me
The person's previous hurt does not justify them pushing the artist too hard

All us been through a lot
Everyone has experienced difficult times

All us got cruel lives
Everyone's life can be harsh and difficult

It ain't just you
The person is not the only one to experience hardships

Please take it easy
Asking the person to relax and not push too hard

You might say something you should not have
Warning the person of the possible consequences of their actions

Girl
Calling the person affectionately

Why you callin me this early
Questioning why the person is contacting them at an unusual hour

I can't read your mind, baby
Reiterating the artist's inability to guess what the person is thinking

Is there some shit you tryina tell me
Asking the person if there is something specific they want to say

Let-let-let me tell you
The singer wants to express something important

This ain't a sequel this sumthin new
The artist wants the person to understand that this situation is different from what they may be used to

Don't get me confused wit your other boos
The artist wants to avoid being compared to the person's past partners

Might not even be what you use to do
The artist may have different expectations from a relationship than what the person has done before

Just don't you go bitin more than you can chew
Warning the person not to take on more than they can handle

Cause is you checkin on me
Asking if the person is monitoring the artist in some way

Or is you checkin up on me
Asking if the person is checking in on the singer

Is this what this here gone be
Asking if this is a sample of what a relationship would look like

If you ain't with it than free me, babe
The singer wants to be released from the pressure of the situation if the person is not interested in having a healthy relationship

Luv me or leave me yeh
The artist wants the person to either love them or walk away

Just, don't get me twisted
Asking the person not to misinterpret what the artist is trying to communicate

For no reason
Asking the person why they are contacting the singer early in the morning without explanation
