KILLER
The Ready Set Lyrics

Stuck in a limbo (Here we go)
Feeling stuck and uncertain, ready to engage in the destructive behavior mentioned in the song

Me and my sins go (Toe-to-toe oh oh oh)
The singer is battling with their own wrongdoing and harmful tendencies

I played a vicious part (Whoa)
The singer acknowledges their role in causing harm to others

I broke an unfair share of hearts
The artist confesses to having hurt many people in their romantic relationships

I'm about to blow
The artist's emotions are reaching a boiling point

So if you come around then you should know
The singer warns potential partners of their harmful behavior

I'll tear you up in two
The singer will cause extreme emotional pain to their partner

Go ahead walk it off if you know what's best for you.
The artist advises their partner to walk away if they want to avoid being hurt

I'm no good for you (No)
The artist acknowledges that they are not capable of being a healthy partner

This heart ain't built for two so
The artist is not able to handle the emotional responsibility of being in a committed relationship

Runaway, runaway
The singer advises their partner to run away from them

'Cause I'm no, I'm no, I'm no good for you.
A repeated statement emphasizing the artist's harmful nature and inability to be a healthy partner

Get in love then I'll cut you loose so,
The singer will end the relationship once they feel like they've had enough

I'mma I'mma I'mma love killer
A repeated refrain that emphasizes the singer's harmful and destructive qualities in relationships

Lower than real low (Here we go)
The singer's emotional state is reaching a dangerous low point

Take your heart like a repo (No-no-no-oh-oh)
The artist will take their partner's heart like a repossession, with little regard for their feelings

Dug yourself in to (Whoa)
The partner is stuck or trapped in the relationship with the artist

A pretty mess that I made for you
The singer acknowledges that they have caused problems and emotional damage for their partner

I'm about to show
The singer is ready to reveal their true, harmful nature and the emotional pain they can cause

For the time you're gonna lose
The relationship will ultimately result in lost time and emotional pain for the partner

I'll tear you up in two
The artist will cause extreme emotional pain to their partner

Smooth like emotions
The artist is skilled at manipulating their own emotions and those of their partner

Bottled up explosions
The singer's emotions are intense and unpredictable

Intoxicating you
The artist's behavior and personality are difficult for the partner to resist

Learning of the truth
The partner will eventually realize the singer's harmful intentions and true nature

I'm your sentencing
The harmful relationship is a form of punishment for the partner

Exiting through your skin
The emotional pain of the relationship will leave a physical impact on the partner

Ninety seven proof
A reference to the high alcohol content of some liquors, implying that the relationship is damaging and intense like hard liquor

I'mma I'mma I'mma killer
A repeated refrain that emphasizes the artist's harmful and destructive qualities in relationships
