Lyrics

I ain't paid my rent in three months

I haven't paid my rent in three months.

I'm so out of touch with feelings

I feel disconnected from my emotions.

I got lows and I got highs, I'm just trying to get by

I experience both lows and highs in life, just trying to survive.

I'm not perfect, baby

I acknowledge that I'm not perfect.

No one's coming to save me, save me

No one is coming to rescue or help me.

There's nowhere to hide

I can't find a place to escape or avoid my troubles.

Oh why, nobody knows my troubles

Expressing the difficulty of my personal challenges.

But me, but me

I face these troubles alone; nobody else understands.


You forget all your manners when you call my phone

Your behavior lacks courtesy when you call me.

You steady on that bullshit, baby, leave me 'lone

You continue with negative behavior; I want to be left alone.

Leave me 'lone

Emphasizing the desire for solitude.

Ain't nobody tell me it'd be like this

No one warned me that life would be this challenging.

I gotta work a bullshit job just to pay rent

I must endure a job I dislike just to pay my rent.

I gotta work a nine to five, I coulda caught a lick

I work a regular job when I could have taken a different path.

I done worked my whole life and I still ain't rich

Despite working hard all my life, I'm not wealthy.

And my nigga, well, he don't never do me right

My partner mistreats me and doesn't treat me well.

Call me in the middle of the night

Receiving calls in the middle of the night, leading to arguments.

All we do is fight, nigga just allergic to the truth

Constant fights, with the partner avoiding the truth.

All he do is lie, shit

The partner is consistently dishonest.

And this other lil' bitch, all she do is cry

Another person is constantly crying, causing frustration.

I be thinking, "Damn, you stupid bitch," but then so is I

Reflecting on the flaws of others, acknowledging personal faults.

Nigga called me up the next day and I'm down to ride

Despite issues, there's a willingness to support the partner.

I'm down to ride

Reaffirmation of the commitment to stand by the partner.

But I'd be lying if I said I wasn't trying

Admitting the effort to improve the situation.

Try and catch a lil' break, lil' peace of mind

Seeking a break and some peace of mind amidst challenges.

Try and beat the rat race, buy back my time

Struggling to escape the pressures of daily life.

A nigga tryna live while the nigga still alive

Desiring to live a fulfilling life despite existing challenges.

Shit a nigga tryna shine, a nigga tryna shine

Expressing the ambition to shine and succeed.

Nobody knows, my, my, my, my, my, my troubles but me

Summarizing that only the individual understands their own troubles.
