Different
Navigating Heartbreak: Nikki Nicole's Struggle for Trust in 'Different'
Lyrics
I’ve seen too many red flags
I've observed warning signs or signals indicating potential problems
I want this to be different yeah
I desire a unique or distinctive experience
But one too many heartbreaks
Multiple instances of emotional pain or disappointment
Makes you kind of distant
Resulting in emotional detachment or distance
I cut old strings can’t be attached no
I have severed ties with the past and cannot be bound by them
Moving on not looking back so
Moving forward without dwelling on the past
Why can’t I give you a fair chance?
Questioning the reluctance to give a fair opportunity
Wanna live in the present, relax
Desire to live in the current moment and unwind
But something keeps holding me back
An unidentified factor is preventing full commitment
What do I gotta do to not be scared? yeah
Seeking ways to overcome fear and hesitations
I don’t know what it is
Uncertain about the cause of the dilemma
You seem like the perfect guy
Perceiving the person as an ideal partner
I just need some peace of mind ah
Expressing the need for peace of mind
Cause how can I believe when
Doubting the sincerity due to past experiences
You tell me that you won’t leave me broken
Expressing vulnerability and fear of being hurt again
And it’s you I wanna believe in
Desire to believe in the person but uncertainty remains
But how will I know you’re any different?
Questioning the uniqueness or reliability of the individual
I was left with battle scars cause I’m way too trusting
Carrying emotional wounds due to excessive trust
Put all my faith in people’s words when it just means nothing
Losing faith in promises and statements that lack substance
So I don’t care bout what you say cause
Indifference to spoken words, resulting in distancing
Imma just push you away boy
Choosing to keep the person at a distance
I’ll never give you a fair chance
Resisting the urge to provide a fair opportunity
Cause I gotta look out for my heart yeah
Priority is protecting one's own heart
I should’ve known from the start
Regret about not recognizing potential issues initially
There’s nothing left to do I’m just too scared
Feeling paralyzed by fear, unsure how to proceed
Guess I know what it is
Realization of the nature of the situation
You might be the perfect guy
Acknowledging the person's positive qualities
But it’s me who needs some time
Personal need for time and space
Cause how can I believe when
Reiterating the difficulty in trusting assurances
You tell me that you won’t leave me broken
Expressing fear of emotional pain and betrayal
And it’s you I wanna believe in
Desire to believe in the person's sincerity
But how will I know you’re any different?
Continued uncertainty about the person's true nature
