Lyrics
I was so young, I was only a teen
I was in my youth, just a teenager
But I didn't mean to give her away
I unintentionally revealed something about her
Twisted tea, tastes like honey It costs money, so drink your drink
Describing a drink (twisted tea) that tastes sweet like honey but comes with a cost, advising to enjoy responsibly
She was nineteen, but she's more like twenty
She claimed to be nineteen but seemed older, around twenty
She really likes money, and she really likes me
She has a strong affinity for money and has affection for me
She loves me, keeps me going I think I'm growing, now I'm counting shit
Expressing that she loves the speaker, motivates and inspires growth, but now faced with challenges
Things were going good, and then I fucked it
Despite a positive trajectory, a mistake was made that led to a setback
Screaming like a trumpet, wasn't good for me
Describing emotional turmoil, likened to a trumpet's loud and distressing sound
Things were alright, she was smiling
At a point, things were fine, and she was happy
Relationship was thriving, but issues were piling
The relationship was flourishing, but problems started accumulating
She was nineteen, but she's more like twenty
Reiteration that she claimed to be nineteen but appeared older, around twenty
She really likes money, and she really likes me
Reiterating her strong interest in money and her affection for the speaker
Take the door, lock the gate I'm going to bed, don't talk to me
Expressing a need for space and isolation by metaphorically taking refuge behind a locked door
On my way home, I bought flowers
After a problematic encounter, an attempt at reconciliation by buying flowers
Thinking better, not family
Contemplating about a better future, focusing on personal improvement rather than family matters
On her knees, true colors showing
Describing a revealing moment where her true nature is evident
My friend, she's blowing, he never told me
A betrayal by a friend involving the speaker's romantic interest
She was nineteen, and she really likes money
Reiterating her age and strong interest in money
Isn't that funny, she never loved me
Reflecting on the irony that despite her material interests, she never truly loved the speaker
