Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make me human I’m realer than my life is
Going blind to bullshit don’t waste my time
If I ain’t gaining add up next time maybe I’ll slide by
Shawty you told me you was down but why’d you up and dip
Had me finding what my problem was looking for some years
Going blind losing myself you was the problem that’s why I dipped
I don’t need you but I wanted you baby your time is past tense
Turned your back up on me then you left it’s like abandonment
Don’t you down talk me was there you weren’t there for me
I smoke on one cause it helps me been popping pills barely
Baby you know you told me that we would be forever
I should’ve seen the signs my people said I can do better
I been after that cheddar you couldn’t even tell
You thought I wanted to leech oh no oh no no ma’am
Got to get my life together
Baby you told me all lies but I knew better
Even when I lied I owned up to show better
Whatever happened to being my wife for the better Ugh
This is not it I hate having these feelings
Make me human I’m realer than my life is
Going blind to bullshit don’t waste my time
If I ain’t gaining add up next time maybe I’ll slide by
Shawty you told me you was down but why’d you up and dip
Had me finding what my problem was looking for some years
Going blind losing myself you was the problem that’s why I dipped
I don’t need you but I wanted you your time is past tense
I wanted you to treat you right to turn you to my wife
Baby you so icy I’m a artic boy for life
Hate having feelings but it makes us human it’s called life
Other fishes in the sea I know one of them just right
While you trying to ruin life
I’m living my life right
Don’t want you might think twice
Can’t fall for you not this time
Tell me why we can’t talk
You want to argue I think not
Ignoring you so chill out
Why you so defensive calm down
I thought you was going to stay
You played with my brain Ugh
This is not it I hate having these feelings
Make me human I’m realer than my life is
Going blind to bullshit don’t waste my time
If I ain’t gaining add up next time maybe I’ll slide by
Shawty you told me you was down but why’d you up and dip
Had me finding what my problem was looking for some years
Going blind losing myself you was the problem that’s why I dipped
I don’t need you but I wanted you your time is past tense
I loved you
