Street Side
Tough Love Chronicles: Wrapped Around You on Street Side
Lyrics
The first five seconds of my day is waking up thinking of nothing much
The initial moments of my day involve waking up without any significant thoughts.
Then I remember what you said last night
I recall something you said during our last conversation.
We had another fight
We had another argument or disagreement.
We ain’t even fucking and its like we’re a couple
Despite not being in a physical relationship, it feels like we're emotionally connected like a couple.
What’s up with that?
Questioning the nature of this emotional bond without the physical aspect.
Gotta stop putting up with that but you know exactly how to pull me back
I feel compelled to break away, but you possess the ability to draw me back.
I’m wrapped around you and there ain’t no slack yea
I'm completely devoted to you without any freedom or leeway.
I’m wrapped around ya
Reiteration of being entirely devoted or wrapped around the other person.
Cause I know how to handle ya but I don’t know how to be your lover
I understand how to manage your behavior, but I struggle with being your romantic partner.
I’m not sure if I can be your friend no, If I can’t sleep beside ya
Uncertainty about being a friend if unable to be close or intimate with you.
Ooo, tough love I’ve given it all that I got
Expressing the effort put into a challenging form of love.
I know how to handle ya but I don’t know how to be your lover
Repeated struggle with being a romantic partner despite knowing how to handle you.
Street side where your bike is parked up
Describing a location where a bike is parked.
But I won't let you drive cause we drank to much
Refusing to let you drive due to being intoxicated.
But you insist on it anyway, I get angry, I walk away
Despite refusal, you persist, leading to anger and withdrawal from the situation.
You pull me back stop looking at me like that
Your actions compel me to return despite my initial withdrawal.
Like a broken record, yea just before the last dance
Comparison of a repetitive situation akin to a broken record nearing its end.
Oh what an anti climax
Expressing disappointment or frustration about an unsatisfying conclusion.
Yea you want it all but don't give nothing back
Desire for everything without reciprocating or giving back in return.
Cause I know how to handle ya but I don’t know how to be your lover
Reiteration of knowing how to manage but struggling to be a romantic partner.
I’m not sure if I can be your friend no, If I can’t sleep beside ya
Uncertainty about maintaining a friendship without physical closeness.
Ooo, tough love I’ve given it all that I got
Reiteration of giving immense effort in a challenging relationship.
I know how to handle ya but I don’t know how to be your lover
Repeated struggle with being a romantic partner despite understanding how to manage.
Noo, no I don't know how, I don't know how, I don't know how
Expressing the inability to understand or comprehend how to navigate the situation.
Ooo I don't know yea
Expressing uncertainty or lack of understanding about a particular aspect.
