Lyrics
You thought that you would hear from me
You expected to receive communication from me.
I guess I’m just outside your reach
I am positioned just beyond your grasp or influence.
you thought that we would work things out
You believed that we could resolve our issues.
I thought that you would let things be
I anticipated that you would allow things to remain as they are.
It don’t make you right just ‘cause you loud
Being loud doesn't justify or make you correct.
all that splashing baby you ‘gon drown
Your extravagant actions will lead to your downfall.
you been living too long in the clouds
You have been detached from reality for too long.
need someone to bring you back to ground
You require someone to bring you back to a realistic perspective.
Don’t you ever get comfortable (comfortable) x4
Repeated emphasis on the idea that one should not become complacent or too at ease.
You thought that you would hear from me
Reiteration of the expectation to hear from me.
I guess I’m just outside your reach
I am still beyond your reach or influence.
you thought that we would work things out
Reiteration of the belief that we could resolve our issues.
I thought that you would let things be
Reiteration of the anticipation that you would maintain the status quo.
It don’t make you right just ‘cause you loud
Being loud doesn't make your position or argument right.
all that splashing baby you ‘gon drown
Your extravagant actions will lead to negative consequences.
you been living too long in the clouds
Emphasis on the prolonged detachment from reality.
need someone to bring you back to ground
The need for someone to ground you and provide a realistic perspective.
Don’t you ever get comfortable (comfortable) x4
Final emphasis on the warning not to become too comfortable or complacent.
