T L Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Frigid waters
Emotionally not connected
I'll rather see it in person
Cuz I'm not good at sexting
I sent the same shit to your homegirl
I know y'all trading messages
So save that baby shit
For them niggas
I handle business
Ice hearted
You say I'll trade your love away
But girl it never started
I heard you loved me
I just can't
I'll walk away from it
I fuck up everything I'm nursing
I'm underserving let it go
Girl I'm burning
Keke
I found no way around
This messy love
Just let me do my thang
And you stop forcing love
One day I'll change my ways
And start embracing us
I'm underserving
Let it go girl I'm burning
I don't deserve it
Let it go girl I'm burning
You hold a light up to my actions
I'm not perfect
Missed calls when I'm away
And You expect the worst
Like entertaining other women girl just say the word
You don't trust me and that's evident
No evidence
But you hold me up to a standard
That I ain't never met
Here's a lifestyle you wanna live
T-shirt and no panties on and Spending everyday
Like tomorrow might be your last
But I'm working it
I love the life that I really I live Ima playboy
Playboy
I can't tell the whole truth
Whole truth no
I'm selfish And I only see my own ways
Ice hearted I was better off when I started now concrete roses in gardens
I'm in love with the past you
I'll trade all our issues
But nothing really gets past you
Time could fail and I will lose you
Failing is what I'm used too
Cold hearted with a new boo with same issues that i'm used too
Ice hearted
You say I'll trade your love away
But girl it never started
I heard you loved me
I just Can't
I'll walk away from it
I fuck up everything I'm nursing
I'm underserving
Let it go
Girl I'm burning
Keke
I found no way around
This messy love
Just let me do my thang
And you stop forcing love
One day I'll change my ways
And start embracing us
I'm underserving
Let it go
Girl I'm burning
If it ain't worth staying
Baby it's enough to say
What's on your brain tonight cause I got time
Just say what's on your heart
Say what's on your mind
You play this all the time
Treating words like knives
Cutting deep with things that I'll never say to you
Cutting ties picking fights
Other while I'll never play with you
Don't try to play me like a rookie or a fool
After everything we been through
You try to play me like you do
Shawdy I've been searching
I've been putting work in
Trynna find a way to make you notice
Even though it isn't perfect
And even if I'm underserving
That don't mean that you gotta give up on love
Ice hearted
You say I'll trade your love away
But girl it never started
I heard you loved me
I just Can't
I'll walk away from it
I fuck up everything I'm nursing
I'm underserving
Let it go
Girl I'm burning
Keke
I found no way around
This messy love
Just let me do my thang
And you stop forcing love
One day I'll change my ways
And start embracing us
I'm underserving




Let it go
Girl I'm burning
