I Thought You Knew
Deceitful Desires: Unraveling Eva Noxious' 'I Thought You Knew'
Lyrics
I did the dirt comin' for the prize
I engaged in dishonest actions in pursuit of a reward.
Blind folded in deceit
I was deceived with my eyes closed.
Go on play my cards, I
I proceed to play my cards in this situation.
Played this game 50 times
I've experienced this game multiple times (metaphorically).
As the tide turns
As circumstances change.
Breaking ties right and left then left to right
I'm severing connections in various directions due to pride.
All over some pride
Conflicts arise because of pride.
Dried flowers in the summer
Symbolic reference to faded or dead relationships.
Hoes in and outta hummers
Reference to a lavish lifestyle with temporary relationships.
Everyday, different troubles
Every day brings different challenges.
Dark awaitin' all over the room
A dark atmosphere is present throughout the space.
Look the other lane and swerve in
Choosing a different path and avoiding problems.
Take the bait
Falling for a trap or deception.
Eliminate shit that weighing heavily on my dome
Removing burdensome thoughts or issues.
The chrome shinin'
A flashy and appealing exterior, possibly a metaphor.
I got it homie until my heart stop, and
I possess it (possibly success or material things) until death.
Right to the drop of the body
Continuing until the literal drop of a body, indicating persistence.
Beating his kids in the lobby
A reference to violent behavior, possibly metaphorical.
Screaming, their bodies are rotting
Reacting to a disturbing situation with horror.
She just sit back she and watches
A passive observer witnessing unsettling events.
Outta the dumpster my brother catchin' a cold
A sibling facing hardship, possibly ignored or neglected.
Diaper drag on the floor
An unpleasant situation, possibly linked to poverty.
Bringing stacks to the door
Bringing resources to address a situation at hand.
Always do or die
A commitment to facing challenges with determination.
Get the money, breaking ya bones
Acquiring wealth even at the cost of harming others.
Bustin' past all these clones
Moving ahead despite challenges or imitations.
Pass the good good stuck in my zone
Indulging in a positive state of mind despite external factors.
I didn't know this before
A realization of something previously unknown.
