Trust Me
Steven Moses Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She said I don′t know who you are
I said I'll be whatever you want me to
I said girl I told you from the start
There ain′t a thing for you that I wouldn't do
I think I got a problem up in my heart
Or maybe I got something wrong with my brain
The second that I hear her say the word love
And I know
I know I need to get away from you
Away from you
And I′m sorry, I′m sorry
For what I've put you through
What I′ve put you through
Trust me girl it hurts me too
I've been just as fucked as you
I know I told you that I love you too
The only time I think I love you when I′m fucking on you
So I've been up don′t lately sleep much
I wake up before no dreams come
Can you let me out, out of this cage
I haven't slept in days
I think I'm going insane
Long as I′m getting
Long as I′m getting paid
Long as I'm getting
Long as I′m getting paid
You always tryna flip shit
My doc always fill my script
Always yelling and bitching shit
When I talk you ain't listening
When you call I don′t pick up the phone
Getting throwed by myself
Doing drugs ain't nobody but me know what the fuck I′m on
A lot of shit I said I wouldn't ever try
But when in Rome you just do as the Romans do
A lot of shit I wish I'd told you
A lot of shit I wish I didn′t do
When it was you it was only you
Like the type of shit like I would kill for you
A lot of shit I wish I′d told you
A lot of shit I wish I didn't do
When it was you it was only you
Like the type of shit like I would kill for you
Trust me girl it hurts me too
I′ve been just as fucked as you
I know I told you that I love you too
The only time I think I love you when I'm fucking on you
Trust me girl it hurts me too
I′ve been just as fucked as you
I know I told you that I love you too
The only time I think I love you when I'm fucking on you
Trust me girl it hurts me too
I′ve been just as fucked as you
I know I told you that I love you too
The only time I think I love you when I'm fucking on you
The song "Trust Me" by Steven Moses expresses the complicated emotions of a toxic relationship. The song starts with the singer attempting to win over a girl who is unsure of who he is. He assures her that he will be whatever she wants him to be and that he will do anything for her. However, he soon admits that he has a problem in his heart or brain that makes it difficult for him to handle the word "love." He acknowledges that he needs to get away from her for both their sakes, and he apologizes for what he has put her through.
The chorus repeats the phrase "Trust me girl it hurts me too, I've been just as fucked as you." This line suggests that the singer has gone through similar pain as the girl he is singing to. He claims that he loves her, but only during sexual encounters and not when they are apart. The second verse reveals the extent of the singer's drug problems and mental instability. He feels trapped in a cage and cannot sleep, leading to his deteriorating mental health. He admits to doing things he regrets and wishes he could take back.
Overall, "Trust Me" portrays a complicated relationship between two people who are struggling to cope with their emotional demons. The song's lyrics are emotional and raw, and Steven Moses's delivery adds depth to the already poignant lyrics.

I truly love this man. I have been listening to him for so long. I loved his last album, i played it on repeat form the day it came out months. This new one is a completely different direction and I support it. No skips, ever. His music helped me get through the bad, I pray he has a long and beautiful career.
JaCk cope
This guy is next level, literally been listening to him since the very start! Play all of his songs on repeat every day when driving 1000x a day! Hit hard driving alone at night cruising with a cigarette windows down. I hope he one day tours to the uk to Birmingham cuz I wanna see him live man I dm him on insta with a lil bit of hope of a reply cuz this guy needs to be protected his music is so pure and from the soul like you can feel every word and song he sings! Love this guy serious!
