Lyrics
This ain’t a song about you
This song is not about you; it addresses a different subject.
This ain’t a song about you
Reiterating that the focus of the song is not on the listener.
Nobody had to know
Actions or information didn't need to be disclosed or revealed.
Nobody had to say
No one needed to express or articulate something.
That was way back in the day
Referring to events in the past, possibly suggesting nostalgia.
Used to lay back in your bed
Recalling a time of relaxation and intimacy in a bed.
Head laid back in the sand
Being carefree, with the head laid back in the sand.
Overslept, now in the waves
Oversleeping and now dealing with the consequences (in the waves).
I don’t even gotta say
No need to explicitly state something; it's understood.
I don’t even gotta say
Reiteration of the unnecessary need to speak.
Watch me
A command to observe or witness the upcoming actions.
Walk away
Expressing the desire to distance oneself as much as possible.
Runaway
-Flyaway
-Far as possible
-Who woulda known?
Reflecting on the unexpected or unpredictable nature of a situation.
I shoulda known
Acknowledging hindsight; realizing something in retrospect.
Feel somewhat grown but still got a long way
Feeling somewhat mature but recognizing there's still a long journey ahead.
But I didn’t know or I didn’t know
Uncertain or unaware of the challenges one would face.
If I could deal with consistent shit you stay hiding from
Dealing with difficulties that someone else avoids or hides from.
Watch me
Repeating the desire to distance oneself from a situation or person.
Walk away
-Runaway
-Flyaway
-Far as possible
-Watch me
Continuing the theme of wanting to separate and move away.
Walk away
-Runaway
-Flyaway
-Far as possible
-.....from you girl
Adding emphasis to the desire to distance oneself from the mentioned person.
