Let's Talk
Navigating Youth: Conversations and Contradictions in Tyler Kyte's 'Let's Talk'
Lyrics
I'm a liar in the weekends, oh yeah
I engage in deceptive behavior during weekends.
I'm so tired on the Monday mornings
I feel exhausted on Monday mornings.
So let me take a seat beside you
Expressing a desire to sit and talk.
Let's talk about what you like
Suggesting a conversation about personal preferences.
And what you don't like
Discussing both likes and dislikes.
How we could make it work
Exploring ways to improve the relationship.
I'm coming down your alley
Describing physical proximity and accessibility to the person.
And I'm right by your door
-I'm coming through your window
-I'm flat on your floor
-And she said "Why, why mister
A conversation where the other person questions the singer's absence and a comparison to the complexity of business at a young age.
are you never at home?"
-Figure out this picture
-Cause it looks like it's wrong
-Well try to understand
-How I think you're more
-And it's a lot like business
-When you're 10 years old
-So pull me in and pull me out now, oh yeah
Expressing a desire to be pulled in and out of a situation.
So let me go and let me light another
Indicating a willingness to let go and indulge in certain activities.
You think you've got me figured out now
Acknowledging a lack of understanding about the singer.
Well, no
-About what you like
-And what you don't like
-How I could make you go
-I'm coming down your alley
Repeating the theme of physical presence and proximity.
And I'm right by your door
-I'm coming through your window
-I'm flat on your floor
-And she said "Why, why mister
Revisiting the questioning of the singer's absence, emphasizing the complexity resembling business at a young age.
are you never at home?"
-Figure out this picture
-Cause it looks like it's wrong
-Well try to understand
-How I think you're more
-And it's a lot like business
-When you're 10 years old
-Oh, no
Expression of uncertainty or hesitation.
Oh, no
-Oh
-I'm coming down your alley
Reiteration of physical closeness and accessibility.
And I'm right by your door
-I'm coming through your window
-I'm flat on your floor
-And she said "Why, why mister
Continuation of the conversation about absence and complexity, drawing parallels to business at a young age.
are you never at home?"
-Figure out this picture
-Cause it looks like it's wrong

-How I think you're more
-And it's a lot like business
-When you're 10 years old
-It's a lot like business
Repetition of the analogy between personal relationships and business at a young age.
When you're 10 years old
-It's a lot like business
-When you're 10 years old
-Well now
Expression of reflection or realization.
Well now, now, now, now
