What Did You Do
Love's Turmoil: Jamal Streeter's Deep Dive into Heartbreak
Lyrics
And you saw your baby
Discovering your partner with someone else
With another boo
Expressing the presence of another romantic interest
It was so cruel
Describing the situation as harsh or heartless
But what did you do
Raising the question about the actions taken
What did you do
Repetition for emphasis on the query "What did you do"
What did you do
-What did you do
-Did you show up unannounced
Listing extreme actions, including violence and sabotage
Put a bullet in their brain
-Did you go to their car
-Cut the chord to their brakes
-Did you cry on the floor in a room by yourself
Asking about emotional reactions and seeking divine guidance
Did you ask God why
-Did you ask Him for help
-Did you turn a blind eye to the signs and red flags
Referring to ignoring warning signs and signals
Damn
Expressing frustration or disbelief
Lost my mind till I stopped doing that or
Indicating a shift in mindset or behavior
Did you do nothing
Possibility of taking no action
Nothing to be ashamed of
Highlighting that doing nothing is not shameful
What did you do
Reiteration of the central question
What did you do
-What did you do
-What did you do
-I drove all through the snow to see ya
Describing efforts to connect with the partner
But your heart froze before I got to even
-Make love and tell you that I need ya
-Why couldn't you wait
Questioning the partner's impatience or actions
My valentine
Introducing a third party and their gestures
He sent you kisses
-Thought you's into chocolate
-Really into riches
Commenting on financial aspects and separation
Checks for playing music but
-I gotta divide it up
-So really when you add it up
-It's none of my business
-But what did you do
Repetition of the central question
What did you do
-What did you do
-What did you do
-You have to be humiliated sometimes
Discussing the inevitability of humiliation and pain in love
You have to be kicked and beaten
-And in that situation
-The person whose kicking and beating
-He's feeling more pain than you are
-You know love is, is an incredible thing
Reflection on conditional and unconditional love
And we don't know love, like we should
-We as always talk about I have unconditional love
-Unconditional love is, we don't even know it
-Because if a person stops stimulating us
-We stop loving them
-You're not interesting to talk to anymore goodbye
Illustrating the tendency to stop loving when unstimulated
But that real love
Emphasizing the difficulty of true, enduring love
That love that sometimes is difficult
-Difficult to have
-That's that love
-
