wish u the best
blackbear Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, yeah, uh

Just used my last one percent to text you, that shit wasn't worth it
LAX to JFK, I probably miss on purpose
Funny how when I don't care, these feelings all resurface
2016 was catastrophic, I deserved it
Just thankful that it's over
Just grateful that it's through
She got a runny nose
I don't think that it's the flu
I got a table at the Nice Guy
Got a bottle of this Ace
You and your girls drank all my liquor
And y'all ain't even say thanks, hoe

I would wish you the best but you've already had it
You've already had it, baby
I would wish you the best but you've already
Uh, you already had it, babe
(Oh, oh)

Uh, lately I been feeling so dead in my own skin and it's a problem, I admit it
When I look into the mirror, that ain't me, that's someone different
Reminiscing, had a vision
Getting married, having kids
And let's be honest, only thing I'm raising is these fucking digits so
And all these rumors that you bitches start are probably true, I did it
Feeding lines of blow to models off a mirror in the kitchen
It's ironic and specific
Can't say they never saw themselves
Starting up problems with addiction, oh

I would wish you the best but you've already had it
You've already had it, baby
I wish you the best but you've already
Uh, you already had it, babe
Uh, you already had it, babe
Uh, you already had it, babe

Just used my last one percent to text you, that shit wasn't worth it
LAX to JFK I probably miss on purpose
Funny how when I don't care, these feelings all resurface




2016 was catastrophic, I deserved it
Just thankful that it's over
