Lyrics
Half past five
Expressing the time, possibly indicating the end of an activity or work.
Yeah I'm done, call it a night
Stating completion and signaling the end of the current engagement.
You grab the keys, wanna drive
Suggesting a desire to take control by driving, showing assertiveness.
But I won't bite, cold as ice
Assuring the other person that there is no intention to harm or be aggressive.
Oh boy, stop trynna play transcendent
Discouraging pretentious behavior, asserting authenticity.
You know, that's right where I will end it
Confirming the refusal to engage in superficiality, setting boundaries.
But when you trip, I see dependence
Observing dependency in the other person's actions or reactions.
My mind, it drips, it gets me all wet
