Lyrics

Daytrip took it to ten (hey)

Production credits: "Daytrip took it to ten"


You say you want love, don't tell me, you don't

Addressing someone who claims to want love

Got it on my own, don't tell me, 'cause I know

Asserting independence, not needing confirmation

You throw it in in my face, you make it hard to stay, hard to stay

Feeling confronted, making it challenging to stay

You throw it in my face, I can't take the pain, go away

Feeling overwhelmed by emotional pain, wanting distance


Baby say she like rappers, it don't matter, 'cause I want you

Expressing desire despite other preferences

I can tell what she after, I gotta catch her, before she go

Sensing intentions, wanting to connect before losing the chance

Can you hold me down, 'cause I might let you come around

Seeking commitment for support

Baby I'm talk of the town, I should be the one you want now

Wanting to be the favored choice at the moment

Baby I'm back on the road so you don't gotta see me at all

Being away physically, possibly to avoid complications

I know you got my back and I want you to know I got yours

Assuring reciprocal support and care

You cried yourself to bed and I know you hated me for it

Recognizing causing pain, regretting it

I wish I could take that back, well all we can do is move forward

Expressing a wish to undo past actions, focusing on moving forward


You say you want love, don't tell me, you don't

Reiteration of someone claiming to want love

Got it on my own, don't tell me, 'cause I know

Reaffirming self-sufficiency, not reliant on validation

You throw it in in my face, you make it hard to stay, hard to stay

Feeling pressured, making it difficult to remain

You throw it in my face, I can't take the pain, go away

Feeling unable to handle the emotional distress, wanting distance


I've been road running like a piston

Metaphorically referring to constant movement like an engine part

How you in this field but you can't run the distance?

Questioning someone's commitment to a situation they're in

Try to tell you bout it but you never listen

Attempting to communicate but feeling unheard

I can't pop outside cause I'm way to different

Feeling different and unable to fit in certain environments

Red beam on his nose call him Bozo, told the shawty I got tatted riding dolo

Using imagery and references to emphasize individuality

Love it when she breaking, get to snapping like a photo

Enjoying someone's emotional breakdown, finding beauty in vulnerability

Crack a seal, pop a pill, move slow-mo

Engaging in substance use to alter perception or experience

Aye shawty woke me up this morning, 'cause she way to gorgeous

Admiring someone's appearance upon waking up

I don't know what she wanted, I was rushing to her, almost crashed my foreign

Feeling rushed to meet someone, risking safety to do so

Trust me baby I've been stabbed in my back too

Relating to past betrayals, acknowledging similar experiences

I ain't got to say it, know I got you

Assuming mutual understanding without verbal confirmation

I don't trust a soul cause they act fool

General distrust towards people due to their behaviors

My lil' shawty stuck for life like a tattoo

Claiming commitment akin to a permanent mark


You say you want love, don't tell me, you don't

Repetition of someone claiming to desire love

Got it on my own, don't tell me, 'cause I know

Reiterating self-reliance, resisting external influence

You throw it in in my face, you make it hard to stay, hard to stay

Feeling pressured, wanting distance due to emotional strain

You throw it in my face, I can't take the pain, go away

Expressing inability to endure emotional distress, desiring relief
