Lyrics
I made a promise yes a promise and I promise Ima keep it
The singer made a promise and vows to keep it.
I’m as honest just as God is when he’s in the Garden Eden
The singer asserts their honesty, comparing it to God's honesty in the Garden of Eden.
Through my hardships I’m exhausted
Feeling worn out and drained due to difficulties.
I tape caution on my heart
Being cautious and protective of the heart.
As it’s beating and I’m breathing asking why we even start?
Questioning the purpose of starting something when faced with difficulties.
I’m recording and I’m lost, I’m lost in all we ever done
Feeling lost and confused amidst past actions or experiences.
Had an abortion and I’m torn ‘cause I just killed my only son
Expressing deep regret and pain over having had an abortion, feeling torn and guilty.
And I’m sorry honey baby I just don’t want to pretend
Apologizing to a loved one for not wanting to pretend.
Cause after all of it I want to figure out what it all meant
Desiring to understand the meaning behind everything experienced.
I’m just a boy that’s grown that’s thrown from home, torn away from love
Feeling like a grown-up who was forcibly separated from home and love.
I thought that you’d break my heart cause that’s all anyone does
Expecting heartbreak, believing it's a common occurrence.
And I’m constantly in my head I think of everything we was
Constantly thinking about past moments and relationships.
Maybe it was much too time or maybe it was all the drugs
Speculating whether time or drug use affected the relationship negatively.
I would roll the weed, you holding me, you tell me that you love
Recalling moments of intimacy and affection with a partner.
Me when I would close my eyes and butterflies would fly above
Feeling happy and content with the partner, symbolized by butterflies.
I would smile so damn much 'cause you was mine and I was yours
Being joyful about being each other's significant other.
We was never ever bored
Never experiencing boredom together.
Together sing our vocal chords, like
Enjoying singing together and sharing a strong bond.
Tell me do you love me or is it just a phase?
Questioning the authenticity of love, whether it's genuine or temporary.
Will you love me by next week or just today?
Wondering if love will endure or fade away quickly.
Is it a truth or dare, tell me stupid games
Asking if the relationship is based on serious or frivolous intentions.
Stupid games, tell me is it stupid games
Questioning the seriousness of the relationship again.
I made a promise yes a promise and I promise Ima keep it
Repeating the promise made earlier.
I’m as honest just as God is when he’s in the Garden Eden
Reiterating the comparison of their honesty to that of God in Eden.
Through my hardships I’m exhausted -
Continuing to express exhaustion from hardships.
I tape caution on my heart
Emphasizing the caution placed around the heart.
As it’s beating and I’m breathing asking why we even start?
Repeating the question about the purpose of starting something.
I’m recording and I’m lost, I’m lost in all we ever done
Feeling lost and confused about past actions or experiences, repeating the sentiment.
Had an abortion and I’m torn ‘cause I just killed my only son
Reiterating the deep regret and sorrow over an abortion.
And I’m sorry honey baby I just don’t want to pretend
