Lyrics

I just wanted you to be my lil Mercedes

I desired you to be my cherished and valuable companion, symbolized by the metaphor "lil Mercedes."

Feel it in your soul when you around cause you my lady

Sensing a profound connection in your presence because you are my significant other, feeling it at a soul level.

Be my ride or die a lil vibe that make you crazy

Desiring you to be a committed and exciting partner, adding an element of intensity and excitement to our relationship.

Push it to the limit if I crash then come and save me

Expressing a willingness to take risks and face challenges, expecting support and rescue if things go awry.

Went from speaking to you daily to not speaking to you daily

Noticing a shift from regular communication to a sudden lack of interaction, raising suspicions about the sincerity of the situation.

The way that we fell off I swear this shit was kinda shady

Feeling a sense of distrust or dishonesty in the way the relationship deteriorated.

On this road to healing hate the way this shit done made me

Expressing displeasure with the negative impact of the relationship on personal well-being and the journey towards healing.

Hate you made me feel like I was out here trippin crazy

Reflecting on the emotional toll caused by the partner's actions, leading to feelings of irrationality or confusion.

Gotta walk it like I talk it long road I'm all for it

Committing to follow through on words with actions, acknowledging the challenges of a lengthy and difficult journey.

Changed the hand that's dealt I had to flip the card on em

Taking control of the situation by changing the circumstances, perhaps by altering one's approach or perspective.

Cost to be the boss so I took a charge on em

Accepting the responsibilities and consequences of leadership, even if it involves facing legal charges.

Coming up I left the past cause that shit a long story

Choosing to move forward and leave behind a complex past, recognizing that it's a lengthy narrative.

I'm just praying for my peace and I'm itching for some glory

Expressing a desire for inner peace and yearning for recognition and success.

You ain't tell me what it was until the day that you ignored me

Discovering the true nature of the situation only when it was too late, feeling neglected or disregarded.

Don't even follow niggas but be watching on my story

Observing others discreetly without actively engaging with them on social media.

I ain't hiding you can find me I ain't Nemo I ain't Dory

Asserting transparency and openness, emphasizing that there is no intention to hide or conceal.

Up at 4am right before the sun hit

Describing an early morning moment just before sunrise, possibly signifying a reflective or contemplative state.

When you was in the whip I swear your face was sun kissed

Recalling a specific memory of a shared experience in a car, emphasizing the warmth of the moment.

Put that pain all up my wrist I just let the clock sit

Enduring emotional pain, metaphorically represented by the wrist, while allowing time to pass without intervening.

Put my time into this money cuz I know they watching

Investing effort into financial pursuits while being aware of the scrutiny and attention from others.

Don't let your ego or your pride tell you

Warning against succumbing to ego or pride and prematurely deciding to end the relationship.

That you done with me

Challenging the partner's assertion of being done with the speaker.

Road trips to the beach so you could catch the sun with me

Recalling shared experiences, particularly road trips to the beach, highlighting moments of happiness and togetherness.

We had them ups and downs but you was having fun with me

Acknowledging the ups and downs in the relationship but emphasizing the enjoyment and fun shared.

Carried niggas to the max it's sad to say you none of me

Expressing a realization that the partner no longer holds the same significance, using a metaphorical representation of carrying others.

Repeating the sentiment of the partner no longer being an essential part of the speaker's life, using the metaphor of carrying others to the maximum extent.

Carried niggas to the max it's sad to say you none of me

Carried niggas to the max it's sad to say you none of me
