Lyrics
I guess the truth will set me free
The speaker anticipates that revealing the truth will bring freedom.
No more us no we
Expressing the end of the relationship ("us" and "we" no longer exist).
Is taking a toll on me
The situation is causing emotional distress for the speaker.
Not just a little bit I wish it was a little bit
The emotional toll is significant, more than the speaker would prefer.
I guess the truth will set me free
Reiteration of the expectation that truth brings liberation.
No more us no we
Repeating the idea that there is no longer an "us" or "we" in the relationship.
Is taking a toll on me
Continuing to express the emotional strain caused by the situation.
Not just a little bit I wish it was a little bit
Emphasizing the intensity of the emotional burden.
I been trying lately
The speaker has been making efforts recently.
You treating me like dirt has got me crying daily
The partner's mistreatment has led to daily tears for the speaker.
And I'd be lying crazy
Admitting that the pain is real and significant.
If I didn't say it hurts cuz I've been trying baby
Expressing the emotional impact and hurt caused by the partner.
I get no recognition
Feeling unnoticed despite putting in effort.
Cuz when I'm trying my best, You still steady tripping
Even when trying the best, the partner continues to cause problems.
U belong next to I like on a keyboard
Describing the partner's place in the speaker's life metaphorically.
I gave you all my love you said you need more
The speaker gave all their love, but the partner still wanted more.
I know we have a past
Acknowledging a shared history.
Don't let it affect the present
Advising not to let past issues affect the present.
Overtime I took your presence and I treated it like it was a present
Reflecting on how the speaker treated the partner's presence as a gift.
I know the times we've had weren't always pleasant
Acknowledging that not all past moments were positive.
I won't give up even though I'm stressing
Determined to persist despite the stress.
I have hope and I have faith we'll make up one day
Expressing hope and faith in reconciliation in the future.
And that's why
Introducing the reason for hope and faith.
I
Emphasizing a personal commitment to overcoming challenges.
I been trying lately
Reiterating the speaker's recent efforts despite challenges.
And you treating me like dirt has got me crying daily
Repeating the partner's hurtful behavior causing daily tears.
But imma just keep grinding baby
Determined to keep working hard despite the emotional pain.
But imma just keep grinding baby
Reiterating the commitment to perseverance and hard work.
I guess the truth will set me free (Set me free)
Repeating the expectation that truth will lead to freedom.
No more us no we (No more us no we)
Reaffirming the end of the relationship ("us" and "we").
Is taking a toll on me (Is taking a toll on me)
Highlighting the emotional toll the situation is taking.
Not just a little bit I wish it was a little bit
Reiterating the intensity of the emotional burden.
I guess the truth will set me free (Set me free)
Reiterating the expectation that truth brings liberation.
No more us no we (No more us no we)
Reaffirming the end of the relationship ("us" and "we").
Is taking a toll on me (Is taking a toll on me)
Stating the emotional toll the situation is taking.
Not just a little bit I wish it was a little bit
Emphasizing the intensity of the emotional burden.
