Lyrics
Yo Mannie
The singer addresses someone named Mannie.
Swiping through all our old photos
The singer is looking through their old photos, reflecting on past memories.
Reminiscing bout the past, but I can't go back
They reminisce about the past but acknowledge they cannot return to it.
So I keep it on the low, save all my tears for my pillow
The singer hides their emotions from others, keeping their sadness private.
I just been catching these Zzz's dreaming about what we could be
They've been sleeping (catching Zzz's) and dreaming about potential futures with Mannie.
Think I need less of you, and maybe need more of me
The singer feels they need more focus on themselves and less dependence on Mannie.
But even your friends could see, I always could put you at ease
Even though they could comfort Mannie, others noticed the singer's ability to make Mannie comfortable.
I hope you found remedy, in all of the hoes you be pleasing
The singer hopes Mannie finds satisfaction in engaging with multiple partners.
Mind says yes, but my heart says no
There's conflict between what the singer's mind and heart desire.
I can't fuck with niggas cause they all gon fold
The singer doesn't trust people (niggas) as they tend to betray.
As soon as you need them, swear they all go ghost
Others disappear when needed, becoming unavailable (go ghost).
But when the tables turn, I ain't picking up my phone
The singer won't be available if the situation reverses, indicating reluctance to help.
You ain't coming home tonight
Implies the absence of Mannie tonight.
I guess I'm on my own tonight
The singer feels alone tonight without Mannie.
I guess I'll just be looking at the bedside, when the sunrise
They'll be staring at the empty bedside when the sun rises, indicating loneliness.
Tell me who gon hold me tight
The singer seeks someone to provide emotional support and comfort.
I've gon all these songs to write
Expresses the singer's dedication to creating music despite emotional turmoil.
Was with you through wrong or right
They stood by Mannie in difficult times, but things have changed.
But now we just swiping through all our old photos
Repeats reflection on old photos, reminiscing about the past.
Reminiscing bout the past, but I can't go back
Reiterates the acknowledgment that returning to the past is impossible.
So I keep it on the low, save all my tears for my pillow
Continues to hide emotions, saving tears for private moments.
I just been catching these Zzz's dreaming about what we could be
Similar to line 5, dreaming about what could have been with Mannie.
Think I need less of you, and maybe need more of me
Reiterates the need for self-focus and less dependence on Mannie.
But even your friends could see, I always could put you at ease
Others noticed the singer's ability to comfort Mannie.
I hope you found remedy, in all of the hoes you be pleasing
The singer hopes Mannie finds satisfaction in engaging with multiple partners.
