Lyrics

Money comin' in, but I'll never get to spend it

Expressing that money is coming in, but there's limited opportunity to spend it.

Tied to my bills, livin' life on a check list

Feeling constrained by financial obligations and living according to a checklist.

When I play the game you know I am not a tech whiz

Not proficient in technology when engaged in the game.

If I use my brain things will get pretty hectic

Avoiding using the brain to prevent complications.

I just got to go, go (Go, go)

Expressing a desire to leave or escape a situation.

I don't like this no, no (No, no)

-

I just got to go, go (Go, go)

-

I don't like this no, no (No, no)

-

Are you a friend of mine?

Uncertainty about the nature of friendship, questioning if someone is truly a friend.

I don't really know

-

Are you a friend of mine?

-

I don't really know

-

So, don't just leave me

Reiterating the plea not to leave, emphasizing the fear of abandonment.

So, don't just leave me

-

Don't just leave me

-

So, don't just leave me

-

I didn't even need you as a kid

Reflecting on not needing someone in the past but being unsure about the current relationship.

But the issue is, they ask me and

-

I don't know what this is

-

And I don't know what to tell 'em

-

When they ask me how you are

Expressing difficulty in describing the person when asked about them.

I could tell them, but I honestly have no clue where to start

-

Are you a friend of mine?

Repeating uncertainty about the nature of friendship and not knowing the other person well.

I don't really know

-

Are you a friend of mine?

-

I don't really know

-

And I don't wanna shoot at ya

Expressing reluctance to confront the person's negative actions but not wanting to lose a part of oneself to maintain composure.

But you keep doing super bad stuff

-

And I don't wanna lose half of

-

Me, to keep it cool after

-

So, don't just leave me

Reiterating the plea not to leave, emphasizing the fear of abandonment.

So, don't just leave me

-

Don't just leave me

-

So, don't just leave me

-

Yeah

An interjection expressing affirmation or agreement.

You never admit

Describing the person as unwilling to commit and unfit to fulfill their needs.

Deny you'd ever commit

-

But you don't ever commit

-

To what you need, you're unfit

-

Inside amidst all of this

Observing the person's lack of happiness and expressing a wish for them to leave.

You have no happiness

-

I see you talkin' your bit

-

Wish you would go home and quit

-

Why you throwin' shade at me?

Questioning why the person is criticizing or attacking, emphasizing the need for distance.

You keep on blastin' me

-

You keep a track on me

-

You need to back off me

-

You want to talk homie?

Challenging the person to talk and asserting that they do not truly know the speaker.

'Cause you do not know me

-

No you do not know me (Not know me)

-

(Not know me)

Reiterating that the person does not know the speaker.
