Problem
Doubt, Dreams, and Self-Reflection: Unraveling Relationships
Lyrics
Maybe it's you girl
Expressing uncertainty about the source of the issues, suggesting it may be the girl.
You say I always talk about all my dreams
The girl accuses the speaker of always discussing dreams; possibly indicating a lack of practicality.
But, maybe it's you girl
The speaker considers the possibility that the girl is the problem, doubting everything she sees.
Always doubting everything that you see
Highlighting the girl's tendency to doubt and question things she observes.
But, maybe it's me
The speaker reflects on the possibility that he himself might be the problem.
Did you ever take a second to stop and think
Suggesting the girl should pause and consider the speaker's perspective.
That I might be
The speaker might be a potential solution or the root cause of the issues.
The fucking problem
An explicit statement suggesting self-awareness of being the problem in the relationship.
Honestly, that's hard to believe that that's me, yeah
Expressing disbelief that the speaker is the problem; claiming to usually solve problems.
Usually I solve them
Asserting the speaker's usual ability to resolve issues.
You start shit, start shit, I solve it. Solve it, solve it what she call it
Describing a cycle of starting and solving problems, possibly emphasizing the girl's role in starting conflicts.
Gorgeous, breathless, flawless
Using positive adjectives to describe the girl, contrasting with the negative tone of the song.
This bitch had to nerve to ask me who I wanted
Revealing the girl's audacity in questioning the speaker's preferences.
You start shit, start shit, I solve it. Solve it, solve it what she call it
Repetition of the cycle of starting and solving problems, emphasizing the girl's actions.
Gorgeous, breathless, flawless
Repeating positive descriptors for the girl, despite the negative context.
This bitch had to nerve to ask me what we could be
Detailing the girl's audacious question about the potential of their relationship.
Maybe it's you girl, you say I always talk about all my dreams but
Reiteration of the girl's accusation about discussing dreams, questioning the speaker's sincerity.
Maybe it's you girl, always doubting everything that you see but
Repeating the girl's tendency to doubt what she sees, reinforcing a lack of trust.
Maybe it's me, did you ever take a second to stop and think that I might be
Reiterating the speaker's self-reflection, inviting the girl to consider his perspective.
The fucking problem
Restating the explicit acknowledgment of being the problem in the relationship.
Problem woh ooh
Repeating the word "Problem" with a vocalized expression, possibly emphasizing the gravity of the situation.
I know it ain't too easy to be with me but
Acknowledging the challenges of being with the speaker while hinting at the girl's behavior.
The way you acted, you belonging to the streets, yeah
Accusing the girl of belonging to the streets, implying unfaithfulness.
Always had your back, behind my back.. I caught you doing some things
Claiming loyalty but discovering the girl's unfaithful actions, expressing betrayal.
You thought that I wouldn't see, yeah
Addressing the girl's misguided belief that the speaker wouldn't notice her actions.
I had to walk away from this I couldn't do nothing else now
Deciding to end the relationship due to the lack of honesty and betrayal.
To hold you up I just needed some honesty, so you fell down
Expressing the need for honesty and the consequence of the girl's dishonesty.
Maybe it's you girl, you say I always talk about all my dreams but
Repeating the earlier accusations and reflecting on the girl's actions.
Maybe it's you girl, always doubting everything that you see but
Reiterating the girl's tendency to doubt, emphasizing the central theme of mistrust.
Maybe it's me
Repeating the self-reflective statement, suggesting that the speaker is still considering his role in the problems.
