My longtime collaborator SVNTY6 (formerly known as FlamesYall) sent me this beat to make a track for his "ORIGiiiNS." I wanted to write a fun, shit talking track. The first verse kind of started out that way, but the second half of the second verse sort of ends up being another #SadBoy song. Basically this is a song about negative experiences from the past turning me into an asshole.
lyrics
[Hook]
Don’t stand so, don’t stand so, close me though
Don’t stand so, don’t stand so, close me no,
Don’t stand so close to me girl
Don’t stand so close to me girl
[Verse 1]
Why this bar so full, why this cup so empty
Most these girls don’t tempt me, I ain’t never simping
Simply, I ain’t catchin’ vibes and I ain’t like all this energy
Sip your drink and just let me be
Sorry boo boo, you’re gonna have to enunciate
Cuz I’m way too fucked up to pick up on the subtle things
I see you with your friends playing with the straw in your drink
I’m a grumpy mother fucker so don’t even think
About approaching me, don’t get so close to me
That wasn’t a move, this aint an opening
I’m just chilling in the corner, please don’t notice me
I don’t look familiar, no you don’t know me
I’m just here with the crew, I ain’t ordering you no drinks
I might’ve done some things but that was the old me
“You’re a jerk” yeah I know
Girl keep it moving, have a nice night though
[Verse 2]
Please don’t stand so, close like we dance slow
I been a handful, that was circumstantial
Let my hand go, can’t be your man so
Leave before it gets heavy like an anvil
I don’t netflick, I don’t have chill
I’m a glass of water and a couple Advil
I know this won’t work, I know I’m a leave first
I’m a push you away, I’m a proabbly be a jerk
You’ll notice there’s only room for one at this table
I’m like an indie rapper, I don’t like labels
I don' don’t like stable, I good on my own
It’s in your best interest to leave me alone
I know it’s fucked up but I been in love
One time is enough, I already did that drug
I took another shot just to feel that buzz
It’s time to leave, this place is crowded as fuck
