Lyrics
Watch out baby you're about to
Warning the listener that a significant action is imminent.
Tip the scales
Addressing a potential imbalance or tipping point in a situation.
The feather on the turtle's back broke the shell
Using a metaphor to describe a small action causing a major consequence.
Back then there was a time I thought we'd prevail
Reflecting on a past belief that things would improve.
Fast forward present day, it ain't going well
Contrasting the past optimism with the current difficult reality.
Don't have time for loss
Expressing a lack of time to deal with losses or setbacks.
I gotta cut you off
Deciding to end a connection or relationship.
Don't know what you been on
Expressing uncertainty about the other person's actions or behavior.
Me I been runnin' a marathon yuh
Highlighting personal commitment and endurance through a marathon analogy.
You just hold me back
Accusing the other person of hindering progress.
Said you'd hold me down (Down)
Recalling a promise of support that wasn't fulfilled.
But bitch I'm tired (Ooo, ooo)
Expressing emotional exhaustion and weariness.
You been on a ride
Acknowledging the other person's involvement in a tumultuous journey.
Can't see through your pride no no
Pointing out the difficulty in understanding the other person due to pride.
And I'm tired (Ooo, ooo)
Reiterating the feeling of exhaustion.
I tried being nice, now I think it's time
Deciding to stop being kind and take action.
Drown in your lies, I'll be surfin' the silence
Choosing to navigate through deception by remaining silent.
Made up my mind
Making a firm decision to move on from the situation.
Yeah, And I'm tired (Ooo, ooo)
Reiterating the fatigue and weariness.
I know it would save me time
Acknowledging that avoiding the situation would save time.
If I just hit decline
Considering rejecting or ignoring the other person.
Doubt me when I say I'm bouta'
Expressing an intention to act swiftly and decisively.
Do the dash
Referring to a quick and abrupt departure.
Patience comes with weight and that's all I had
Implying that patience is exhausted and only endurance remains.
She led me astray, she likes to distract
Blaming someone for leading astray and causing distraction.
She won't ever change, she's an empty path
Believing that the person won't change and represents a hollow path.
She would never like to say she likes those game no no
Highlighting a refusal to admit enjoying manipulative games.
I could never play insane too gone I'm dazed all love
Rejecting involvement in destructive and crazy behavior influenced by love.
But I'm tired
Reiterating the feeling of tiredness.
You been on a ride
Recalling the tumultuous journey with the other person.
Can't see through your pride no no
Reiterating the difficulty in understanding the other person's pride.
And I'm tired (Ooo, ooo)
Reiterating the feeling of exhaustion.
I tried being nice, now I think it's time
Deciding to abandon kindness and confront the situation.
Drown in your lies, I'll be surfin' the silence
Choosing to navigate through deception by remaining silent.
Made up my mind
Making a firm decision to move on from the situation.
Yeah, And I'm tired (Ooo, ooo)
