Lyrics
Why can’t we be...
Questioning why a deeper connection isn't possible
Why can’t we be (FRIENDS)?
Reiterating the desire for friendship
Why can’t we be....
Expressing a longing for a different relationship
Why can’t we be FRIENDS? (oh)
Repeated desire for friendship with emphasis
I like you, you-you know you know you-you no pretend (woah)
Expressing genuine liking and dismissing pretense
You more than my girl you really really are my friend (woah)
Highlighting a deep bond beyond romantic involvement
I knew all my means would go to justify the ends woah!
Awareness that actions may serve a greater purpose
Roll a smoke a fatty while you beat me on Nintendo
Sharing a casual activity while emphasizing connection
I really like your vibe I’m tryna ride right side your tempo
Desire to sync and match the other person's pace
Chill and laid back like this fucking instrumental
Describing a relaxed and easy-going dynamic
If you get a migraine know I’m there to rub your temples
Offering support and care in times of distress
Loyalty like oil in the sense that it’s essential!
Comparing loyalty to something vital and necessary
Ride around my mind
Repeated lines indicating preoccupation or contemplation
Ride around my mind
-Ride around my mind
-Ride around my mind
-Ride around my miyiyiyind
Continued preoccupation or contemplation
Ride around my miyiyiyind
-Ride around my miyiyiyind
-Ride around my miyiyiyind
-Why can’t we be friends? (oh)
Reiterated desire for friendship with emphasis
I like you, you-you know you know you-you no pretend (woah)
Reiteration of genuine liking, deep bond, and support
You more than my girl you really really are my friend (woah)
-I knew all my means would go to justify the ends woah!
-Roll a smoke a fatty while you beat me on Nintendo
-I really like your vibes I’m tryna ride right side your tempo
-Chill and laid back like this fucking instrumental
-If you get a migraine know I’m there to rub your temples
-Loyalty like oil in the sense that it’s essential!
-Oooooooooo
Expressing emotion or emphasis
Ride around my mind
Repetition of preoccupation or contemplation
Ride around my mind
-Ride around my mind
-Ride around my mind
-Ride around my miyiyiyind
Continued preoccupation or contemplation
Ride around my miyiyiyind
-Ride around my miyiyiyind
-Ride around my miyiyiyind
-Why can’t we be...
Questioning the inability to establish a certain relationship
Why can’t we be...
Continued questioning of the nature of the relationship
Why can’t we be....
-Why can’t we be FRIENDS?
Final emphasis on the desire for friendship
(voice progressively deepens)
-I like you, you-you know you know you-you no pretend
-You more than my girl you really really are my friend
-I knew all my means would go to justify the ends WOAH...
