Enemies
Tyga Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Driving, but my mind in the back,
You are alone but it's quiet cause we argued prior to that
I left my phone, stopped for gas, then some girl named Janet called
Said it really pissed you off and you let it build a wall
Emotions tall, we're in the mall and some random girl call
And Mina text it back, I ain't trying to lose it all,
It was good, but she ain't no trophy to brag
But I should do it anyway, cause we could fall off any day
And you'll be right back to where you was ,yeah, your momma place,
And things are safe and bills are paid and you just lay around
Man, you're so spoiled now, only child!
Business as usual, while you yell our business so loud
Bringing these groupie bitches around me
Ain't your friends, they're fowl
Swear also they tell addresses in your mail
First to say, "I told you so!"
But first off, ain't they all alone?
Yeah, I told you so, you keep your enemies too close
Not everybody anti know, we're supposed to be like on the low!
Remember before we've been down this road
Tie your flat on the slope,
Came to a stop as soon as I spoke,
Cause you know
I wanna tell the world about you
But it's like, you sworn to secrecy!
Why do we sacrifice? Growing up to fall in love so fast
Hope we don't become enemies!
I put my faith in God, you put your faith in me
Now I'm trying to keep my sanity!
Why do we sacrifice to fall in love so fast?
Man, I hope we don't be enemies
I'm still seeking!
I ran into my ex like the other day
Didn't wanna let you know 'cause usually you look the other way.
Despise face with hatred
Visions of me and her naked
Lies, you can't take it
Cheated before, but not much lately!
Lately I've been so into this shit, love is amazing!
Said you was amazing spending your time
All of your time until the days end
But it's one person you relate with
You go wild and lay with!
Never been good with relationships
Life difficult, she make it basic
Yeah, when it basic I drive slow, your body in my control
It's my control, ain't gotta go
No way, just pose like Phil Gold!
Let the time go, we'll go, too
No telling what I might do without you cause
I got a pass and you do too
But I ain't gotta judge what you've been through, cause:
I wanna tell the world about you
But it's like, you sworn to secrecy!
Why do we sacrifice? Growing up to fall in love so fast
Hope we don't become enemies!
I put my faith in God, you put your faith in me
Now I'm trying to keep my sanity!
Why do we sacrifice to fall in love so fast?
Man, I hope we don't be enemies
Cause you know
I wanna tell the world about you
But it's like, you sworn to secrecy!
Why do we sacrifice? Growing up to fall in love so fast
Hope we don't become enemies!
I put my faith in God, you put your faith in me
Now I'm trying to keep my sanity!
Why do we sacrifice to fall in love so fast?
Man, I hope we don't be enemies
I'm still seeking!
I'm still seeking!

Cause family first and pussy last, the last pussy that I had

It was good, but she ain't no trophy to brag
The sex was good, but it's not something to boast about

Bringing these groupie bitches around me
You bring these groupie women around me
Ain't your friends, they're fowl
These women are not your friends, they're disloyal
Swear also they tell addresses in your mail
I believe these women even give out our address to strangers
First to say, "I told you so!"
These women are the first to say 'I told you so'
But first off, ain't they all alone?
But first of all, aren't all of these women alone?
Yeah, I told you so, you keep your enemies too close
I told you that keeping these untrustworthy women close to you is a bad idea
Not everybody anti know, we're supposed to be like on the low!
Not everyone is against us, so we should keep our relationship a secret
Remember before we've been down this road
Remember, we have gone through this before
Tie your flat on the slope,
Your car tire is flat while we are driving up a hill
Came to a stop as soon as I spoke,
We stopped abruptly as soon as I spoke
Cause you know
You understand what I am saying
I wanna tell the world about you
I want to share my love for you with the world
But it's like, you sworn to secrecy!
However, you want to keep our relationship private
Why do we sacrifice? Growing up to fall in love so fast
Why do we have to give up things we enjoy to fall in love so quickly?
Hope we don't become enemies!
I hope our love for each other does not turn into hatred
I put my faith in God, you put your faith in me
I trust in God, and you trust in me
Now I'm trying to keep my sanity!
Now I am trying to maintain my mental stability
Man, I hope we don't be enemies
I really hope we do not become enemies
I'm still seeking!
I am still searching for answers
