Take What You Want
State Of Mine Lyrics

I feel you crumble in my arms, down to your heart of stone
I feel you lose your composure and break down in my embrace. Your heart is cold and unfeeling.

You bled me dry just like the tears you never show
You took everything from me until I had nothing left to give, just like you keep your emotions hidden and refuse to show vulnerability.

Why don't you take what you want from me?
Why don't you just take what you desire from me? All that you do is take, anyway.

Take what you need from me
Take from me whatever you require, as you always do.

Take what you want and go
Take what you desire and leave me behind, as you have no regard for my feelings.

I never needed anything from you
I did not require anything from you, but honesty and love.

And all I ever asked was for the truth
All I ever desired was for you to be truthful with me and not deceive me.

You showed your tongue and it was forked in two
You lied so much that your words were divided and distorted, making them meaningless.

Your venom was lethal, I almost believed you
Your poisonous words were strong enough to affect me emotionally, and for a moment, I almost believed you.

Yeah, you preyed on my every mistake
You took advantage of every mistake I made and used it as an opportunity to hurt me.

Waited on me to break, held me under hopin' I would drown
You eagerly waited for me to fall apart and kept me down in the hope that I would die emotionally.

Like a plague, I was wasting away
Like a disease, I was deteriorating because of you, and I was slowly wasting away.

Tryna find my way out, find my way out
I was trying to find a way out of this toxic relationship and free myself from your grasp.

And it finally came the day
Finally, the day arrived.

I start giving my heart away
I started to give my heart to someone else.

For heaven sakes, my bones will break
Even if it causes me great pain and suffering, I am willing to take this risk.

But you never own my soul, no
You don't have control over my soul or my emotions. I am free from your grasp.

I took them stones you threw, made chains for the crew
I took the negativity and abuse that you directed towards me and turned it into something positive for others around me.

I brought up ten hoes, this coupe only made for two
I brought more girls than the car could accommodate, showing that I am moving on and enjoying life.

They all ran through it, it ain't nothing left to do
They all had their fun, and there is nothing more you and I can do.

I need some more reasons to live out this evening
I want to make the most of this night and have more reasons to live out the evening.

I've been sippin' forever and just taking whatever
I've been drinking for some time now and enjoying life without worrying about you or your toxicity anymore.

Hoping, thinking whenever you'll be back around
I still hope and think about the possibility of you returning, even though I know it's not good for me.

Let's go our ways, whichever
Let's go our separate ways, whichever works best for us.

You say how is however long
You talk about how much time we have left together, but I know that we are already far apart.

'Cause you know I never be alone
You say this because you know that you will always remain on my mind, even if I am surrounded by other people.

(Love, love)
This is a reference to the chorus and the idea that love is being taken away, leaving only pain behind.

Shorty gon' back (shorty gon' back)

All of my cash (all of my cash)

Shawty went bad (shawty went bad)
This line could be a reference to someone changing for the worse or to a woman who is behaving badly.

Why don't you take what you want from me?
This line is repeated from the beginning and suggests that the artist is still open to someone taking what they want, but without the same emotional attachment.

Take what you need from me
This line is a repetition from earlier and shows the singer's willingness to give whatever is desired.

Take what you want and go
