Talk To Me Talk To Me
The Sh-Booms Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You need someone to listen
And you can call me, I promise I’ll be patient
We ain’t gotta be close I’ll keep my distance
When that nigga not around you ain’t gon miss him
Baby talk to me
You need someone to listen
And you can call me, I promise I’ll be patient
When that nigga not around you ain’t gon miss him
Said that nigga stress you out
He don’t care bout how you felling
But you blowing up my phone
Talking bout you need some healing
You been cryin to sleep
He always make a different promise that he not gonna keep
Just take a break from his antics
You could take a trip to me
But you not gon get back home
In the same night and that's not a problem at all
You could leave that phone off
Just in case he wanna call
I could treat you real nice
Ima bring you back to life
I know exactly how you like it baby ride it like a bike
Ima fuck the stress away
Have you coming back to back
Like I’m Drizzy fucking drake
Don’t get this shit twisted up I ain’t taking you on dates
I’m just here when you need it
Baby I’m just your escape
If you love me you gon hate me
And I don’t need no more hate
Money hungry and I’m greedy
Ima stack up my plate
Living my best life I’m coming tape after tape
Yeah
Baby talk to me
You need someone to listen
And you can call me, I promise I’ll be patient
Girl we ain’t gotta be close I’ll keep my distance
When that nigga not around you ain’t gon miss him
Baby talk to me
You need someone to listen
And you can call me, I promise I’ll be patient
Girl we ain’t gotta be close I’ll keep my distance
When that nigga not around you ain’t gon miss him
Automatic she texting me back like its automatic
So obsessive loving all my pictures, and posts
And when i’m gassing other bitches she start doing the most
Told her mind her fucking business
Just keep taking off your clothes
Yeah
I can’t resist your body, and your figure
Girl ya waist hypnotic like the liquor
And ya skin so soft on my fingers
But I can’t wife no bitch that talk to other niggas
Baby talk to me
You need someone to listen
And you can call me, I promise I’ll be patient
Girl we ain’t gotta be close I’ll keep my distance
When that nigga not around you ain’t gon miss him

Living my best life I’m coming tape after tape
Living my most enjoyable life, releasing new recording after recording
Automatic she texting me back like its automatic
Without hesitation, she quickly responds to my messages
So obsessive loving all my pictures, and posts
Extremely fixated, adoring all my images and social media updates
And when i’m gassing other bitches she start doing the most
And when I'm complimenting other women, she starts overreacting
Told her mind her fucking business
I instructed her to mind her own affairs
Just keep taking off your clothes
Simply continue undressing
I can’t resist your body, and your figure
I am unable to resist your physique and overall appearance
Girl ya waist hypnotic like the liquor
Your waist is mesmerizing, just like alcohol
And ya skin so soft on my fingers
Additionally, your skin feels incredibly soft against my fingers
But I can’t wife no bitch that talk to other niggas
However, I am unwilling to commit to a woman who communicates with other men
When that nigga not around you ain’t gon miss him
When that guy is absent from your life, you won't feel any longing for him
