Huh, can we vibe just a little?
That would be a dream come true
Ain't gon' lie, just like a fiend I've been feelin' you
Just a little, just a little
Um, uh
Had to let it ride just a little
Let me bring it back so it's clear
I've been wantin' you since we were little
Now we're full grown and you here
Do you have time just a little?
I can make it worth your while
Ain't you diggin' me a little?
Damn it look good when you smile
Huh
Just a little
Don't let mine ever change
Don't ever change, don't ever change, don't ever change
The song "Tidal Wave" by kiLL edward starts off with repetitive "Yeah"s before diving into the first verse where he asks if they can just "vibe just a little".

In the following verse, he reflects on how he has been wanting this person since they were young and how they are both grown now. He asks if they have time, promising to make it worth their while, and compliments them on how good they look when they smile. The chorus then hits, with kiLL edward wanting them to not change.
The theme of the song revolves around kiLL edward's desire for a person, potentially someone from his past whom he has continued to have feelings for. He describes feeling like a "fiend" for this person and wanting to "vibe" with them, suggesting that he wants to spend time getting to know them better. The line "I've been wanting you since we were little" adds a layer of nostalgia and perhaps even hints at a childhood crush that has continued into adulthood. The repeated "Yeah"s in the beginning of the song create a sense of anticipation, as if the artist is building up to something that he desperately wants.
