Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It be so hard to suppress them
When it feels like I'm about to drown
Hold me baby you're the one I prayed for
No you don't gotta say more
You my one and only
You don't seem to understand that
Imma rip my heart right out
Show you how much you're worth it to me
That's my 1 mission
I been so damn anxious
Head against the pavement
Blood my only payment
Love brought pain and anguish
I think that it's over
You're not at my shoulder
Told you that I can't go
It's so hard to let go
Count my bankroll yeah, but it don't matter
Everyday without you,
I just get sadder
Fuck the opposition
Balling like a piston
Nothin' on my wish list
Cuz I prolly already got it
Rubber bands all in my pocket
Boy you do not got it
Know I gotta watch my back
Cuz they always be plotting
Imma rip my heart right out
It's out of damn commission
Show you how much you're worth it to me
That's my 1 mission
I been so damn anxious
Head against the pavement
Blood my only payment
Love brought pain and anguish
Irrational thoughts now
It be so hard to suppress them
When it feels like I'm about to drown
Hold me baby you're the one I prayed for
No you don't gotta say more
You my one and only
You don't seem to understand that
Imma rip my heart right out
It's out of damn commission
Show you how much you're worth it to me
That's my 1 mission
I been so damn anxious
Head against the pavement
Blood my only payment
Love brought pain and anguish
Irrational thoughts now
It be so hard to suppress them
When it feels like I'm about to drown
Hold me baby you're the one I prayed for
No you don't gotta say more
You my one and only
You don't seem to understand that
Imma rip my heart right out
It's out of damn commission
Show you how much you're worth it to me
That's my 1 mission
I been so damn anxious
Head against the pavement
Blood my only payment
Love brought pain and anguish
