Lyrics

Call me up, yeah you want me

Desire for contact and attention; a request to be called

Call me up, you say you need me

Stating the necessity of being called

Get there then you don't have me yeah

Expressing disappointment when the call doesn’t result in having the speaker


Call me up, yeah you want me

Repeated desire for contact and attention

Call me up, you say you need me

Reiteration of the need to be called

Get there then you don't have me yeah

Re-emphasizing disappointment after the call


I got standards (I gotta keep in check)

Setting personal standards, implying control over what's acceptable

Work for hours (Yeah I wanna be the best)

Commitment to hard work and aspiration for excellence

I can be sour (Yeah you know I'll confess)

Admitting the capability of being negative or unhappy at times

I got a Strong Tower (Yeah I stay blessed)

Reference to inner strength and blessings


I won't say this

Refusal to say/do something

I won't take that

Rejection of something specified

And I won't wear that

Refusal to wear something specified

And I won't say smack

Commitment to avoid negative talk or behavior


Mmm I won't say this

Reiteration of refusal to say/do something

I won't take that

Rejection of something specified, repetition for emphasis

And I won't wear that

Refusal to wear something specified, repetition for emphasis

And I won't say smack

Commitment to avoid negative talk or behavior, repetition for emphasis


Call, Call, Call me up yeah you want me

Repeated request for contact and attention

Call me up, you say you need me

Reiteration of the necessity to be called

And then get there then you don't have me yeah

Expressing disappointment when the call doesn’t result in having the speaker, repetition for emphasis


Call me up yeah you want me

Repetition of the desire for contact and attention

Call me up, you say you need me

Reiteration of the need to be called

And get there then you don't have me yeah

Re-emphasizing disappointment after the call


You're frustrated, how's that my fault

Questioning why the other person is frustrated and implying it's not the speaker's fault

Were you not taught

Asking if the other person was not educated or instructed properly

You're so distraught

Describing the other person as very upset or troubled

Want my support

Expressing a desire for the other person's reliance or need for support

Not giving in, yeah yeah yeah

Asserting not yielding or giving in despite pressure

You, you talk that talk

Encouraging the other person to act on their words

Now walk that walk

Encouraging action consistent with words spoken

'Cause you need to

Stating the necessity for the other person to act accordingly


Call me up yeah you want me

Repeated request for contact and attention

Call me up, you say you need me

Stating the necessity to be called

And then get there then you don't have me yeah

Expressing disappointment when the call doesn’t result in having the speaker


Call me up yeah you want me

Repetition of the desire for contact and attention

Call me up, you say you need me

Reiteration of the need to be called

And get there then you don't have me yeah

Re-emphasizing disappointment after the call


Call me up yeah you want me

Repetition of the desire for contact and attention

Call me up, you say you need me

Reiteration of the need to be called

And then get there then you don't have me yeah

Re-emphasizing disappointment after the call


Call me up yeah you want me

Repetition of the desire for contact and attention

Call me up, you say you need me

Reiteration of the need to be called

And get there then you don't have me yeah

Expressing disappointment when the call doesn’t result in having the speaker
