Lyrics

Oh-oh-oh

Expression of emotion or realization

I'm tryna travel across the world and see some better things

Desire to explore the world for a better life

Put you in them diamonds, see you in them Cuban links

Aspirations to provide luxury and love

Aye said I wanted love, but I ain't know what that shit brings

Expressing confusion about the consequences of wanting love

So I'm tryna make it better, I can't do it without strings

Striving for improvement while acknowledging dependencies

And I've been thinking deeply bout the shit that I can do

Contemplating potential actions and choices

I heard about your flaws, I just hope that it ain't true

Awareness of partner's imperfections

Put all my eggs inside a basket, really thinking it was you

Investing deeply in a relationship, possibly with disappointment

And I've been dealing with some pain, but you don't see it from my view

Private suffering not visible to others

If you took the chance to think about it, maybe you would know

Encouraging partner to empathize with personal struggles

That I don't get excitement entertaining different hoes

Preference for emotional depth over casual relationships

Relationships like money, cause they come and they gon' go

Comparing relationships to the transient nature of money

But don't wait till it's too late, and my feelings on the floor

Warning about the potential regret of delayed emotional expression

Tryna take it to new levels, tryna take it through the ceiling

Seeking personal and relationship growth

You done left me scarred, so all my life I got no feelings

Emotional wounds leading to emotional numbness

Start to question what's the antidote, but shit, it ain't no healing

Reflecting on the difficulty of finding a solution

And anything can change, but that's only if you're willing

Emphasizing the need for willingness to bring about change

To try

Short expression of determination

I can't tell no lie, I really go through pain, see the tears in my eyes

Authentic acknowledgment of personal pain and vulnerability

Love's the devil in disguise, tryna push me to demise

Love being portrayed as a deceptive force

Know I can treat you better, it ain't always sunny skies

Assurance of the ability to treat the partner better

See those pretty little eyes, got tired of goodbyes

Expressing weariness of goodbyes

Sorry that I miss some shit, my eyes was on a prize

Apology for potential oversights due to focus on goals

And I've been really thinking, hoping that we'd be alright

Hopeful contemplation about the future of the relationship

Ain't tripping off these bitches, I just put you to the side

Prioritizing the partner over other distractions

I'm tryna travel across the world, and see some better things

Reiteration of the desire for a better life through travel

Put you in them diamonds, see you in them Cuban links

Repeating the desire for luxury and love

Aye said I wanted love, but I ain't know what that shit brings

Revisiting the confusion about the consequences of wanting love

So I'm tryna make it better, I can't do it without strings

Reiterating the commitment to improvement

And I've been thinking deeply about the shit that I can do

Continued contemplation about potential actions

I heard about your flaws, I just hope that it ain't true

Reiteration of awareness of partner's imperfections

Put all my eggs inside a basket, really thinking it was you

Repeating the deep investment in the relationship

I've been dealing with some pain, but you don't see it from my view

Reiterating private suffering not visible to others

Like she from Georgia, she my peach, tryna keep you out the streets

Metaphorical expression of a close and special relationship

Met you at your lowest, on some game, I had to teach

Recollection of meeting the partner during challenging times

In my bag, I feel like Meech, to my heart, you had the key

Feeling deeply connected to the partner

Really hate the fact I feel like I be begging, saying please

Frustration with the perception of begging in the relationship

Took a break from everything, a lot of shit been on my mind

Taking a break to reflect on life's complexities

Opened different doors of life, I didn't know what I would find

Exploring different aspects of life with uncertain outcomes

Shit been getting worse, thought it'd get better over time

Disappointment in the lack of improvement over time

Blind through it all, wish I would've seen the signs

Regret over not recognizing warning signs

Feel like you the one I want, you the one I need

Affirmation of the partner as the desired one

I've been running low, and my heart, it on E

Feeling emotionally depleted and seeking understanding

Though we exchanged a couple words, this ain't how it gotta be

Reflecting on communication challenges in the relationship

Told me this and told me that, I didn't know what to believe

Confusion and skepticism due to conflicting statements

I didn't know what to believe

Reiteration of uncertainty and vulnerability

Guess it's my fault I wear my heart up on my sleeve

Accepting responsibility for displaying emotions openly
