Lyrics

Late night windows down Frankie Ocean blastin'

Enjoying late nights, relaxed, listening to loud music by Frankie Ocean.

So high off of doubt I'm in my head too often

Feeling excessively uncertain, trapped in my thoughts too frequently.

But somehow I'm gettin' by with bullshit and nonsense

Managing somehow with nonsense and trivialities.

Damn I think I need new options

Considering new choices or alternatives.

Seems like my friends got it all figured out I'm nervous

My friends seem to have their lives sorted, making me anxious.

If I stay here I'll be alone on my own deserted

Fear of being abandoned if I remain here.

It's the constant thought of fear that's got me feelin' worthless

Continuous fear causing a sense of worthlessness.

Yeah don't think that I deserve this

Doubting if I deserve these emotions or situations.

Damn these 20 something's yeah they're somethin' else

Expressing admiration or frustration towards people in their twenties.

Stay doin' things for them forgettin' 'bout myself

Often prioritizing others over self-care and neglecting personal needs.

Searchin' for love with my heart on a shelf

Seeking love but keeping emotions guarded.

A lot on my mind always feel overwhelmed

Feeling overwhelmed due to excessive thoughts and responsibilities.

See I'm still workin' on my insecurities

Continuously addressing personal vulnerabilities.

Cause shit no one got me the way that I got me

No one understands me the way I understand myself.

I'm takin' my time yeah I'm doin' it right

Being patient and cautious in life.

I'm done catchin' feelings babe I'm catchin' flights

Choosing to avoid deep emotional connections and prioritizing freedom.

Back in high school I thought I'd have some kids by 27

Previously expected to settle down earlier in life but failed to do so.

But I'm out here foolin' like I haven't learned my lesson

Continuously making mistakes without learning from them.

One more question 'bout my career tops off my self-depression

Questions about my career exacerbate my low feelings about myself.

Damn but babe there's no rushin' perfection

Embracing the idea that perfection takes time, rejecting the pressure to rush.

Lookin' in seems like all this love is just another bargain

Realizing that love might not be as genuine or valuable as perceived.

Nobody told me that I'd just end up being brokenhearted

Unexpectedly facing heartbreak and disappointment in love.

If only I knew I'd never let myself get close to startin'

Regretting getting involved in relationships if I had known the outcome.

I'd rather be here heartless

Prefer being emotionally detached.

Damn bitch fuck out my garden

Expressing frustration, wanting someone bothersome to leave.

Still caught up on old flames ya know

Still emotionally attached to past relationships.

Life's just been so night and day oh no

Experiencing extreme fluctuations or changes in life.

Damn she feel me I can't tell fasho

Uncertain if someone understands me completely.

I think it's time for me to go

Considering leaving or moving on.

Been prayin' on my knees oh Lord

Praying fervently.

Oh Lord

Seeking guidance or help.

Guess I'm seein' myself out the door

Realizing it's time to depart or move away.

Just like the times before

Similar situations have occurred before.

Oh

Expressing dismay.

Damn these 20 something's yeah they're somethin' else

Similar sentiment regarding people in their twenties as expressed before.

Stay doin' things for them forgettin' 'bout myself

Repeatedly prioritizing others' needs over personal well-being.

Searchin' for love with my heart on a shelf

Seeking love cautiously to avoid emotional hurt.

A lot on my mind always feel overwhelmed

Continuing to feel overwhelmed by thoughts and responsibilities.

See I'm still workin' on my insecurities

Ongoing effort to address personal vulnerabilities.

Cause shit no one got me the way that I got me

Self-reliance due to a lack of understanding from others.

I'm takin' my time yeah I'm doin' it right

Being patient and cautious in life, prioritizing independence over deep emotional connections.

I'm done catchin' feelings babe I'm catchin' flights

Choosing to avoid deep emotional connections and prioritize freedom.

I'm done catchin' feelings babe I'm catchin' flights

Reiterating the choice to avoid deep emotional connections.
