Lyrics
I think we're moving apart
I sense a growing distance between us
You're feeling a way
You're experiencing a particular emotion
I won't answer your call
I choose not to answer your phone calls
No matter what you say
Regardless of what you say
Why you keep me around?
Questioning the reason for keeping me in your life
Do you want me to stay?
Are you asking me to remain?
I been building a house
I have been constructing a metaphorical house
The bricks are made outta clay
The foundation of this house is fragile and vulnerable
And I feel the heat right now
I feel pressure or intensity at this moment
Like please don't let history repeat right now
Please avoid repeating past mistakes
I wish it wasn't as bad it sounds
I hope the situation isn't as dire as it seems
But I don't wanna know how cold it get til it freeze
I don't want to understand how difficult it is until it's too late
What if I want out?
Contemplating the possibility of ending the relationship
What's best for me?
Prioritizing what's best for my well-being
And it might seem selfish
Acknowledging potential selfishness in decision-making
But that's how shit be
Explaining that this is the reality of the situation
Yea
An expression of agreement or confirmation
Especially when the walls are tumbling down
Especially when facing challenges and difficulties
And it make a lot of noise and you not around
The collapse of the relationship is noisy without your presence
What the fuck have we been doin this entire time?
Questioning the purpose of the time spent together
Shoulda took hitting the bottom as the bottom line
Suggesting that hitting rock bottom should have been a wake-up call
All the arguments are driving me outta my mind
Arguments are causing mental distress
Did the hardest shit ever when left it behind
Successfully moved on from a challenging situation
I been measuring my blessings and countin em down
Reflecting on and appreciating positive aspects of life
If I'm doing somn different, it's gotta be now
If change is necessary, it should happen now
I think we been moving apart
Reiterating the perception of growing apart
You been feeling a way
You've been experiencing negative emotions
I ain't answer your call
I've intentionally avoided responding to you for days
In a couple of days
Emphasizing the duration of not answering calls
Why you keep me around?
Questioning the reason for keeping me in your life (repeated)
Do you want me to stay?
Repeating the question of whether you want me to stay
I been building a house
Continuing the metaphor of building a house
To keep you the fuck out my face
Building a barrier to keep you away from me
(So get the fuck out my face) Get the fuck out my face
Explicitly stating the desire for you to leave
I been building house to keep you the fuck out my brain
Extending the metaphor to include mental space
(So get the fuck out my brain) Fuck!
Expressing frustration and urgency (repeated)
Get the fuck out my face
Reiterating the desire for you to leave (repeated)
I been building a house to keep you the fuck out my way
Continuing the metaphor of building a barrier in a physical space
Building a house (fuck)
Repeating the idea of constructing a house (repeated)
Fuck out my brain
An emphatic expression of wanting you out of my thoughts
