Call Me
Emotional Rollercoaster: Unveiling the Depths of Relationships in Jon Schuyler's 'Call Me'
Lyrics
1-800-You Can Always Call Me
Offers a hotline, suggesting easy access to the speaker
Promise you'll get thru if you ain't blocked me
Promises availability unless blocked by the person
Yet
Acknowledges potential blockage or avoidance
I know that you thru, I know you salty
Acknowledgment of the listener's anger or resentment
Salty how I do you after all these
Expresses causing hurt over a lengthy period
Years
Reflects on the passage of time
Like...
Contemplates the relationship
Like we just met
Feels like the beginning despite the duration
But it's really been like 5 years in
Recognizes a significant time period together
And shit I admit
Admits to dishonesty in the past
A nigga been lyin n shit
Confession of lying
But I don't like you cryin n shit
Dislikes seeing the listener upset
Contemplating suicide in the whip
Mentions preventing harm to the listener
No
Declares the decision to let the listener live
I gotta let you live
Proposes ending the relationship
We should just call it quits
You can call me toxic
Accepts being labeled toxic
A narcissist, obnoxious
Accepts being seen as a narcissist
You can call me dishonest
Accepts being perceived as obnoxious
Long as you call me
Emphasizes the importance of being contacted
And you can call me crazy
Desires a closer, more affectionate connection
Wish you'd call me your baby
Wants to be referred to as a beloved
But I'll just be here waiting
Expresses waiting for the listener
For you to call me
Waits for communication from the listener
Call Me, Call Me
Repeated emphasis on calling the speaker
Just Call Me, Call Me, Call Me
-Just Call Me, Call Me, Call Me
-Call me when you're lonely
Invites various reasons for the listener to call
Call me you're feeling horny
-Yeah
-Call me your trophy
-Call me you friend, lover, homie
-Yeah
-Call me when you wanna hold me
-Call me when you wanna bone me
-Call me when you wanna show me
-Something nasty that you learned from your homies, yeah
-Just call me home again
Requests the listener to return home
Call me your only man
Desires to be seen as the primary romantic interest
Yeah, yeah
Desire for religious or exclusive significance in the listener's life
Call me your Holy Man
-Call me your Only Fan
-Call me that one percent
Desire to hold a special place in the listener's life
That gets to hold your hand, yeah yeah
-Just call me home again
You can call me toxic
Reiteration of the desire for communication and affection
A narcissist, obnoxious
-You can call me dishonest
-Long as you call me
-And you can call me crazy
-Wish you'd call me your baby
-But I'll just be here waiting
-For you to call me
You can call me toxic
Repetition of the themes of perception, desire for connection, and waiting for contact
A narcissist, obnoxious
-You can call me dishonest
-Long as you call me
-And you can call me crazy
-Wish you'd call me your baby
-But I'll just be here waiting
-For you to call me
-Call Me, Call Me
Reiterated emphasis on calling the speaker
Just Call Me, Call Me, Call Me
-Just Call Me, Call Me, Call Me
