The Message
grey. Lyrics

Laughing
Starting off happy and carefree

Laying down in my bed thoughts are tossing and turning they fall around in my head
But then getting lost in thought and overthinking things while lying in bed

If I didnt kiss you that night would u be in bed
Reflecting on how one small decision to kiss led to being with the person now

But I'm glad I made the move cuz now you're with me instead
Being content with the decision and happy about the way things turned out

Drugs are addicting I'm addicted to none
Acknowledging that drugs are addictive but not personally struggling with addiction

Well I guess I take that back cuz I'm
Except for one drug

Addicted to one
Being addicted to love

The strongest one that everybody wants
Considering love to be the strongest drug out there and something that everyone desires

And baby that's love
Defining that drug as love

You were my first so I was hoping we keep
Wanting to maintain and preserve the connection because they were each others' first love

It a dub
Keeping that bond going indefinitely

Right
Affirming the previous statement

And Yes well argue baby girl it's a fight
Admitting that arguments are inevitable and a part of life

Have me tossing and turning staying awake all night
Sometimes causing stress and inability to sleep at night due to disagreements/arguments

I never thought that we would be this close or even this tight
Expressing surprise at the depth of the relationship

You move away let's stay together baby girl that's just life
Accepting that sometimes circumstances (like someone moving away) happen, but still wanting to be together

That cute ass smile and them eyes that you got
Complimenting and appreciating the physical features of the partner

That pretty brown hair don't care I'll give u all that I got
Expressing a willingness to give their all to the partner, regardless of physical appearance

I'm addicted to your touch and many more that's alot
Describing the emotional and physical connection with the partner as strong and intense

It doesnt matter where we are I hope that we keep in touch
Wanting to maintain that connection and communication no matter what

Criticism pessimism man that's all that I get
Feeling like others are always negative and critical

Saying that we wouldn't make but I'm tired of that shit
Being frustrated with others doubting the strength of the relationship

Even if we couldn't do it baby lemme go thru it
Wanting to face any obstacles or challenges in the relationship head on

And I wouldn't have a problem just incase u forget
Reminding the partner that they are committed to the relationship and willing to work through anything

Ya
Affirming the previous statement

We did alot and it was back in the past
Reflecting on the history of the relationship

The holidays a lot of days of us just
Remembering specific moments spent together, like holidays or vacations

Talking and laugh
Sharing many happy moments together

We watch the office on ur couch and I didn't think it was bad
Recalling doing something together and enjoying it, even if it was simple

To think about all of the shit we going through and it's sad
Feeling saddened by the challenges and struggles of the relationship

I know
Acknowledging the hardships of the relationship

I love you lil mama and i know you
Affirming love for the partner

Been hurt
Recognizing that the partner has been hurt before

But lemme show how Id do it you just
Wanting to prove that they can be a good partner and help the other heal

Gimme the word
Asking for the opportunity to show their love and commitment

You did your long distance before and yes I know it didn't work
Acknowledging that the partner has had difficulty with long-distance relationships in the past

You couldn't trust him but u trust me and I
Contrasting the previous partner with themselves, and affirming that the partner can trust them

Know you've had worst
Reminding the partner that there have been worse experiences in the past

Becuz I'm passionate
Explaining that the strong feelings of love and devotion motivate their commitment

Never Losing you girl I aint having it
Determining to never lose the partner, and being firm about that decision

Rather than
Preferring something else

Losing track of thought I guess
Making a joke about losing track of thought, transitioning to an apology

I'll gather them
Pulling themselves together

I'm sorry babe
Apologizing to the partner

For everything Ive done when I was badder then
Recognizing past mistakes and that they've grown since then

It hasn't been
Admitting that this hasn't been the easiest journey

That long before I told you I was
Reflecting on the timeline of the relationship

Passionate
Repeating the earlier statement about their passion and love for the partner

(Aboout you)
Clarifying that the passion is specifically for the partner
