Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

"OLDMONEY!"
[Hook: Shea Michael]
Can we go deeper
You need space and I need a breather
Cold shoulder, heart in the freezer
I wish I could make it all easier
Can we go deeper
You need space and I need a breather

Cold shoulder, heart in the freezer
I wish I could make it all easier
[Verse 1: BAINS.]
Hey, yeah, I know you’re addicted to the nightlife
I’m tryna do different things with my life
(you) doing hella coka in a highrise
(you) blowing up on me and all of your words are like dynamite
(you) call me in bed at 4am, not even Friday night
On to them better things
Threw out the wedding ring
I don’t need you, you don’t need me
Fuck it, I wanna binge
All on your love again
You be so shiesty when you pull up, you taking my heart again
And share it with all your friends
You know that’s fucked up and I don’t gotta tell you this
I’m all high right now and you got me in my feelings, I was healing
[Hook: Shea Michael]
Can we go deeper
You need space and I need a breather
Cold shoulder, heart in the freezer
I wish I could make it all easier
Can we go deeper
You need space and I need a breather
Cold shoulder, heart in the freezer
I wish I could make it all easier
[Verse 2: Shea Michael]
Trudged through the mud every time we got stuck
Fought so hard for this thing we call love
Tell me why it feels like we’re doing much
But it’s never enough
No, it’s not over yet though, don’t say we lost touch
Fought so hard for this thing we call love
We tried to ignore it but it finally caught up to us

[Hook: Shea Michael]
Can we go deeper
You need space and I need a breather
Cold shoulder, heart in the freezer
I wish I could make it all easier
Can we go deeper
You need space and I need a breather

Cold shoulder, heart in the freezer
I wish I could make it all easier
