Lyrics
[Hook]:
Hook
Fallin on my plates, say i'm on the way
Falling on my plates, indicating a sense of urgency or a need to leave
Pick me up at 8, say i'm on the way
Asking someone to pick up the speaker at 8, reinforcing the urgency
I been slipping out of light till the darkest shade
Experiencing challenges and difficulties, possibly in life or a relationship
See you gimme one minute, Im’ a drink away (ah slow-motion)
Expressing a desire for a brief break or escape through drinking
[Verse}:
Verse
I can try to navigate all the way
Expressing a willingness to navigate through challenges
I can try to contemplate all the ways
Considering different perspectives and options
I can break my plates over
Symbolic reference to breaking away from routine or habits
Break my plates, trade my days
Willingness to trade or change one's days
You see me on this type of wave
Adopting a particular mindset or lifestyle
She ask me what else do I see if it’s not in it with me
Responding to someone questioning the speaker's perception
Asking myself where did the time go
Reflecting on the passage of time
Sippin henny never defined her - I can wager a thousand
Downplaying the impact of drinking on the speaker's judgment
A night out never hurt nobody
Embracing the idea that a night out is harmless
Turn the lights we gon place our bodies
Emphasizing physical closeness and connection
It occurred a lot, don’t walk - run across the room
Encouraging swift action and decisiveness
I Prefer the heels and watch, timing is soon
Expressing a preference for elegance and punctuality
Definitely find me and she telling me like
Anticipating someone finding the speaker
My mind telling me one thing - can never tell it the way I wanna run things
Internal conflict between rationality and desire for freedom
Said my mind was on 10, tryna split the defence
Asserting a bold and assertive mindset
Diving in the deep end, turning today to the weekend
Indulging in carefree and spontaneous behavior
No sense of time can downplay what's really going on
Losing track of time due to enjoyable experiences
But lately everything is keepin me round
Feeling captivated by current circumstances
Diving in the deep end, turn today to the weekend
Repeating the theme of indulging in carefree experiences
She in my face asking way too many questions (She in my face in my face asking way too many questions)
Encountering someone who is inquisitive or intrusive
Waiting down down down my street (down my street babe)
Someone waiting for the speaker down the street
Time to move, keep (keep) it moving yeah
Emphasizing the importance of keeping things moving
Wasting precious time in a dream (down my street babe)
Wasting time in a dream-like state
Time to prove, keep it moving yeah
Highlighting the need to prove oneself and keep progressing
Waiting down down down my street
Repetition of someone waiting for the speaker
Cause I don't wanna be about it
Expressing a desire to avoid certain situations or topics
Something bad that you seek
Acknowledging the presence of negative elements
But you know how we get to parties
Referencing a familiar way of behaving at parties
[Hook]:
Hook (repeated)
Fallin on my plates, say i'm on the way
Repetition of the urgency to leave
Pick me up at 8, say i'm on the way
Repetition of asking for a pick-up at 8
I been slipping out of light till the darkest shade
Repetition of facing challenges and slipping into darkness
See you gimme one minute, I’m a drink away (ah slow-motion)
Reiteration of being a drink away and in slow-motion
[Outro]:
Outro
Pick me up at 8, say i'm on the way (questions)
Repeating the request for a pick-up at 8
I been slipping out of light till the darkest shade
Repetition of experiencing challenges and slipping into darkness
Falling from this place (yeah)
Falling from a certain state or place
