Lyrics
The table's stacked with shades
The situation or circumstances are favorable or advantageous.
I'm tryna haggle up and sell my double number spades
Trying to negotiate and sell a pair of playing cards with the number two.
But this guy knows his shit, yeah
Referring to someone knowledgeable, likely in the context of the card game.
He knows how to fucking play
Acknowledging the person's skill in playing the game.
The chips are in the pot
Referring to betting with valuable assets in a game.
One of us has gotta pay
Indicating that one of the players has to bear the consequences or losses.
In deep, and I can't fold
Feeling emotionally invested and unable to withdraw from a situation.
Why do they treat you so cold?
Questioning the cold treatment received from others.
They're spitting lies that might be true
People spreading falsehoods that might have some truth.
I bet that I can't fold on you
Expressing a belief that the speaker cannot give up on someone or something.
I don't mind when I'm losing with you
Accepting losses when partnered with someone, indicating resilience.
Cause you act like a kid that I once knew
Comparing someone's behavior to that of a child from the past.
I'm a googly eye and you're the glue
Metaphorical description of being open-minded while the partner provides stability.
We stick together but I'm still prettier than you
Expressing commitment despite differences, with a touch of humor and self-confidence.
I guess I get why you're so well hated
Understanding the reasons for being disliked but remaining calm and relaxed.
But I'm chilling like a gradient, faded
Being relaxed and carefree, possibly under the influence, while facing challenges.
On the same spectrum, halfway braindead
Sharing a state of being partially mentally inactive but still expressing love.
Only mean love towards you when I say this
Clarifying that expressions of love are genuine despite unconventional behavior.
In deep, and I can't fold
Reiterating the feeling of being deeply involved and unable to withdraw.
Why do they treat you so cold?
Questioning the harsh treatment received from others, possibly in a relationship.
They're spitting lies that might be true
Highlighting the presence of rumors that may contain some truth.
I bet that I can't fold on you
Reaffirming the belief that the speaker cannot give up on someone or something.
The stakes are in the sky
Describing the elevated level of risk or consequences in the situation.
I'm looking up and thinking that I might have to learn to fly
Contemplating the need for a drastic change or escape from the current situation.
Cause when I'm falling I don't even wanna start to try
Expressing a reluctance to make an effort when facing challenges.
And no one gets it but I know you feel it all the time
Acknowledging a shared feeling of difficulty or struggle that is not understood by others.
And that's why I blame it on the bad luck
Attributing difficulties to bad luck and a shaky foundation in the partner's character.
And the bad foundation to your construct
Doubting the wisdom of placing trust in the partner due to potential negative consequences.
Maybe I'm wrong to give you any trust and
Reflecting on the possibility of personal mistakes leading to a negative impact on life.
Maybe I'm just fucking my life up
Expressing a sense of self-sabotage or negative influence on one's own life.
