STRAIGHT SHOOTER
Straight Shooter: Navigating Love's Maze in Mac Anderson's Melodic Journey
Lyrics
Watching you notice me
Observing someone noticing the speaker
What a test, sitting back, on my left
Reflecting on a challenging situation, possibly involving someone on the left
I taste that sour D
Referring to the scent of marijuana (sour D) on someone's breath
On your breath, on your breath, on your breath
Emphasizing the presence of the scent on the breath
Still don't know
Expressing uncertainty about the speaker's direction or purpose
Still don't know where I'm going, and it's been a year
Not knowing where the speaker is headed after a year
In and out of your reaches, like cogs in a gear
Describing movement in and out of someone's reach, likening it to cogs in a gear
If you could drop in on my mind, you could pick me up
Suggesting that understanding the speaker's mind could be beneficial
Wishing it could be the days when I picked you up
Longing for past times when the speaker could uplift someone
With my mind in reverse, I could switch it up
Contemplating reversing thoughts and actions
Losing my broad, need a second
Feeling the need for a break or pause
I was on anti-depressants
Having experienced a period on antidepressants
I was still fading under pressure, need refreshers
Still struggling under pressure and seeking refreshers
Desperate, like a biscuit needs refreshment
Expressing desperation, comparing it to a biscuit needing refreshment
Zoom calls could get a bit oppressive
Mentioning the oppressive nature of Zoom calls
Hold my phone and listen while I'm texting
Being occupied with texting while holding a phone
I should be impressed that I'm progressing
Reflecting on progress and feeling a sense of accomplishment
Onto the next thing
Transitioning to the next phase or challenge
I know what you thinking, babe, I can intimidate
Aware of what someone might be thinking and claiming the ability to intimidate
More sour than lemonade
Comparing the intensity of emotions to sourness, more than lemonade
Sweeter than minute maid, don't wanna inseminate
Emphasizing sweetness, expressing reluctance to impregnate
But I love being in you babe
Expressing love while being inside someone
You can't see me while I write this
Writing a message without being seen
You could see me when I finally get my license
A vision of being visible once the speaker gets a driver's license
Sunny disposition rubbing off you then
Describing a positive and cheerful attitude transferring to the speaker
I call you my straight shooter, feel like you my skin, in a way
Referring to someone as a "straight shooter" and feeling a close connection
Cover meTold you it's gon be one day
Requesting cover and anticipating a day of recognition
With praise
Expressing gratitude or admiration
Whenever the pressure goes
Reassuring someone that things will get better when pressure subsides
Told you it's gon be one day
Reiterating the expectation of a future day of recognition
Ain't that body such a fine draw
Complimenting someone's attractive physique
You could etch it in the pavement, etch it in the pavement
Suggesting the lasting impression of the body, metaphorically etched in pavement
For my entertainment
Desiring the visual entertainment of the body
Nights where I would pop outside in useless fits
Recalling moments of frustration or anger
Rolling down the windows, airing out the whip
Opening windows and ventilating the car in response to fits
Don't you slow down
Encouraging someone to maintain momentum and not slow down
Sunny disposition rubbing off you then
Repeating positive impact and closeness with someone
I call you my straight shooter, feel like you my skin, in a way
Reiterating the metaphor of someone being a "straight shooter"
Cover me with praise
Requesting acknowledgment or admiration
Whenever the pressure goes
Assuring someone that praise is welcomed during challenging times
Told you it's gon be one day
Anticipating a future day of recognition
Told you it's gon be one day
Reiterating the expectation of a future day of recognition</td
