Lyrics
Why don't you call me
Asking why the person doesn't contact the speaker
When you see me online late at night
Noticing when the person is online late at night
You know I'm just getting high
Implying drug use (getting high)
Thinking about you and I
Contemplating thoughts about the person and their relationship
Emotions drift into your eyes
Feelings or sentiments are conveyed through eye contact
The rest just drifts aside
Everything else fades away in comparison to the emotions felt
Just like the oceans coasting
Comparing emotions to the constant movement of oceans
Why were laying beach side
Recalling a relaxed moment together at the beach
Let's be honest
Advocating for honesty
Come one let's just be honest
Reiterating the importance of honesty in their relationship
I've been with you since like last august
Referencing the duration of their relationship
Not like Jada I promise
Comparing to Jada Pinkett Smith, possibly implying commitment
I stay cautious
Exercising caution in the relationship
Keep my options
Maintaining multiple options or alternatives
I'm not heartless
Asserting that the speaker isn't devoid of emotions
I'm just honest
Stating honesty in their communication style
Speak ebonics
Speaking informally (in a specific dialect) when comfortable
When were on it
Utilizing a particular way of speaking when in a specific mood
Like the chronic
Referencing a potent form of marijuana (chronic)
Up on starships yeah
Imagining a romantic or dreamy scenario
And I'm to high
Feeling too intoxicated to return to a normal state
To find my way down
Unable to come down from the high
And I won't try to find my way out
Not attempting to get out of the heightened state
I'm to high
Continuing to feel intoxicated
To find my way down
Similar to line 24, unable to return to a normal state
And I won't try to find my way out
Similar to line 25, not trying to get out of the high
Your a goddess
Viewing the person as exceptionally beautiful or divine
Don't me modest
Encouraging the person not to downplay their attractiveness
Oh so flawless
Describing the person as flawlessly perfect
Yeah regardless so
Regardless of any imperfections
Why don't you call me
Repeating the initial question, emphasizing the lack of communication
When you see me online late at night
Reiterating the observation of the person being online late at night
You know I'm just getting high
Continuing the idea of getting high and thinking about the person
Thinking about you and I
Repeating thoughts about the person and their relationship
Emotions drift into your eyes
Referencing emotions felt through eye contact
The rest just drifts aside
Everything else pales in comparison to the emotions experienced
Just like the oceans coasting
Similar to line 7, comparing emotions to the movement of oceans
Why were laying beach side
Recalling a relaxed moment together at the beach
