Diamond choker coverin her purple skin
Yeah
Diamond choker coverin her purple skin
She told him they maybe could still be friends
He said that he wouldn't do it again
Shut up motherfucker, I ain't gon be your lover
Cruising in my purple beamer with the tints
Told her I won't ever let him do it again
She said they're friends, I said it depends
On the diamond choker coverin her purple skin
She told him they maybe could still be friends
He said that he wouldn't do it again
Shut up motherfucker, I ain't gon be your lover
She said we movin too fast, she don't wanna crash
All my niggas crazy foot hard on the gas
Wanna be like Jay-Z countin all the cash
But everybody hates me, I'm droppin out of class
Feel like Kurt 'Rape Me' life's over in a flash
Diamond choker coverin her purple skin
She told him they maybe could still be friends
He said that he wouldn't do it again
Shut up motherfucker, I ain't gon be your lover
The lyrics of h-max's song "Skin" delve into themes of abusive relationships, self-reflection, and the complexity of human connections. The opening lines, "Diamond choker coverin her purple skin," symbolize both opulence and the emotional scars the woman carries. The diamond choker represents the lavish lifestyle she projects, while the purple skin alludes to the bruises and hurt she hides beneath.
The singer grapples with the idea of maintaining a friendship with someone who has caused her pain, as indicated in the line, "She told him they maybe could still be friends." However, she is met with resistance as the person refuses to acknowledge their wrongdoing, stating, "He said that he wouldn't do it again." The singer's defiance is evident in the line, "Shut up motherfucker, I ain't gon be your lover," as she rebukes the person and refuses to be drawn back into a toxic relationship.
The lyrics also touch upon the singer's desire for stability and the fear of repeating past mistakes. She is portrayed as someone who wants to slow down and avoid crashing, with the line, "She said we movin too fast, she don't wanna crash." However, societal pressures and a feeling of alienation contribute to her inner turmoil. The reference to Jay-Z and counting cash highlights her aspirations and the disconnection she feels from others, as expressed through the line, "But everybody hates me, I'm droppin out of class."
In summary, "Skin" explores the contradictions and complexities of a tumultuous relationship, addressing topics such as abuse, self-worth, and the internal struggle for stability.
