To The Core
Heartbreak Echoes: Absent Markey's Emotional Odyssey
Lyrics
Yeah-ah-ah
Expression of affirmation or agreement
Yeah, yeah, oh
Repetition for emphasis
Oh, Oh
-(Starr, yeah)
Reference to someone named Starr
They keep talking on the low up on my name (Up on my name)
People gossiping about the speaker
They keep dissing me but got nothing to gain, oh (Nothing to gain)
Others criticizing without benefit
Walking 'round my mind her ankles she gon' sprain (She gon' sprain)
Imagery of emotional distress
She walk in on me and I don't know he name, woah (Don't know her name)
Encountering someone unfamiliar
Why she sayin' she don't love me anymore (Woah)
Questioning a partner's love
She steppin' on my heart, it broke me to the core, yeah (Yeah, aye)
Heartbreak and emotional pain
Now I'm hitting up the girls that I ignored (Oh, oh)
Regret and reaching out to past connections
Looking for a way to settle up the score, yeah (Settle the score)
Seeking resolution or revenge
Had anxiety, but now I just want more (I just want more)
Transition from anxiety to desire for more
Any girl that gets my foot up in the door, yeah (Up in the door)
Desire for new relationships
Tryna salvage my emotion that she tore (That she tore)
Attempting to heal emotional wounds
This isn't like me, but it don't hurt to explore, yeah
Exploring unfamiliar emotions
It's about that time to lean up on her shoulder
Approaching someone for support
This time isn't like the other times that I had told her (I had told her)
Highlighting uniqueness of the current situation
Off this liquor and I'm bolder (And I'm bolder)
Influence of alcohol on confidence
Ima tell her everything, it's only getting colder (Getting colder)
Opening up about personal struggles
Yeah, but ask yourself if you can see the light
Encouraging self-reflection
I just told her everything that made me sad tonight (Sad)
Sharing personal vulnerabilities
I just told her everything that she didn't invite (Invited)
Revealing uninvited confessions
She told me that it's okay, I can't tell if she should have the right
Ambiguity in understanding the partner's response
They keep talking on the low up on my name (Up on my name)
Repeated gossip affecting the speaker
They keep dissing me but got nothing to gain, oh (Nothing to gain)
Continued criticism without benefit
Walking 'round my mind her ankles she gon' sprain (She gon' sprain)
Recurrence of emotional distress
She walk in on me and I don't know he name, woah (Don't know her name)
Encountering someone unfamiliar again
Why she sayin' she don't love me anymore (Woah)
Partner expressing lack of love
She steppin' on my heart, it broke me to the core, yeah (Yeah, aye)
Reiteration of heartbreak and pain
Now I'm hitting up the girls that I ignored (Oh, oh)
Reconnecting with past connections
Looking for a way to settle up the score, yeah (Settle the score)
Continuing the quest for resolution or revenge
I ain't got time left to grief (Time left to grief)
Acknowledging limited time for mourning
Am I really the same person they perceive (That they perceive)
Questioning self-perception
If I stress like this, there's nothing to achieve (To acheive)
Expressing futility in stressing
Does she love me, is that something I believe, woah
Doubting the authenticity of love
They don't want to see me run right out of options (No)
Awareness of external judgments
What'll happen when I stop taking precautions (Oh)
Consequences of abandoning caution
Drugs they got me, yeah, addicted to these toxins (Oh-oh)
Addiction to destructive behaviors
When I'm in a trance I can't just go and stop it (Oh-oh)
Difficulty breaking free from harmful habits
What would happen if I went and I just lost it (I lost it)
Contemplating the consequences of losing control
If I did everything the moment that I thought it (I thought it)
Regret over impulsive actions
Aye, There's a line but I'm across it (I'm across it)
Crossing a moral or personal boundary
If I go out tonight, don't say I didn't call it (Yeah, I called it)
Anticipating potential negative outcomes
They keep talking on the low up on my name (Up on my name)
Reiteration of gossip affecting the speaker
They keep dissing me but got nothing to gain, oh (Nothing to gain)
Continued criticism without benefit
Walking 'round my mind her ankles she gon' sprain (She gon' sprain)
Recurrence of emotional distress
She walk in on me and I don't know he name, woah (Don't know her name)
Encountering someone unfamiliar again
Why she sayin' she don't love me anymore
Partner expressing lack of love (repeated)
She steppin' on my heart, it broke me to the core, yeah
Reiteration of heartbreak and pain (repeated)
Now I'm hitting up the girls that I ignored
Reconnecting with past connections (repeated)
Looking for a way to settle up the score, yeah (Settle the score)
Continuing the quest for resolution or revenge (repeated)
