[English]

Doesn't make sense now

Shit just got real, things are gettin' intense now

I hear you talkin' 'bout "We" a lot, oh, you speak French now?

Givin' me the signs so I gotta take a hint now

I hit you up like, "Do you wanna hang right now?"

On the East Side and you know I'm with the gang right now

You say, "Do I own a watch? Do I know what time it is right now?"

Yeah, it's after 2:00 a.m. and that's askin' a lot of you right now

All she talkin' 'bout is, "Come and see me for once"

"Come and see me for once"

"You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me"

All she ever say is, "Come and see me for once"

"Come and see me for once"

"You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me"

...

I been up for two whole days thinkin' what I did to keep you goin'

Thumbin' through the voicemails that you left me

Tellin' me where I went wrong

I'll admit I'm sorry when I feel I'm truly sorry

Things change, people change, feelings change too

Never thought the circumstances woulda changed you

You said you never traded, no (yeah, you said that)

And I believed you when they told me don't

(Yeah, thought you meant that)

But either way you're still invited and I can't even lie to you

Swear these days all you say is, "Come and see me for once"

"Come and see me for once"

"You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me"

All she hit me with is, "Come and see me for once"

"Come and see me for once, oh"

"You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me"

Why you gotta start, girl, why you gotta start?

I know we make time for the things that we want

I know you got another nigga tryna play the part

Just 'cause he got a heart don't mean he got heart

Could be standin' in a field, and he still ain't in the field

If anythin' should change then I thought we had a deal

Lately you keep questionin' what you get out the deal

Doin' things to make me feel the way I make you feel

How hard is it to let you know when I'm comin' home?

That way you can be prepared

Maybe take a couple sick days and not miss pay

I don't even know what things are lookin' like inside of your place

Or how it's decorated

This thing is gettin' one-sided, I can't even lie to you right now

Yeah

All she talkin' 'bout is, "Come and see me for once"

"Come and see me for once"

"You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me" (yeah)

All she hit me with is, "Come and see me for once"

"Come and see me for once"

You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me"

Key Grammar Structures

• Shit just got real, things are gettin' intense now

  ➔ Present Continuous for changing situations

  ➔ The use of "are gettin'" (getting) indicates an ongoing process or a situation that is becoming more intense. It describes a change happening at the moment of speaking.

• I hear you talkin' 'bout "We" a lot, oh, you speak French now?

  ➔ Present Continuous for annoyance / habits

  ➔ The use of "I hear you talkin'" (talking) can imply annoyance or disbelief at the other person's behavior, especially when coupled with the question "you speak French now?" It highlights a sudden change in behavior or a perceived affectation.

• You say, "Do I own a watch? Do I know what time it is right now?"

  ➔ Rhetorical Questions

  ➔ These are not literal questions seeking information, but rather statements expressing frustration or disbelief. The expected answer is obviously "yes", emphasizing the speaker's point.

• I been up for two whole days thinkin' what I did to keep you goin'

  ➔ Present Perfect Continuous

  ➔ "I been up" is a colloquial shortening of "I have been up". The present perfect continuous tense describes an action that started in the past and continues into the present. It emphasizes the duration of the activity ("two whole days") and suggests it is still affecting the speaker.

• I'll admit I'm sorry when I feel I'm truly sorry

  ➔ Conditional Clause (Type 0/General Truth)

  ➔ This sentence expresses a general truth or a habitual action. It uses the present simple tense in both the 'if' clause ("when I feel") and the main clause ("I'll admit"), although 'I'll admit' could also be interpreted as a Type 1 conditional depending on the context.

• Never thought the circumstances woulda changed you

  ➔ Modal Verb (would have) for Unreal Past

  ➔ "Woulda changed" is a colloquial shortening of "would have changed." This structure is used to express a hypothetical situation or a regret about something that didn't actually happen. It implies that the speaker now believes the circumstances *did* change the other person.

• Just 'cause he got a heart don't mean he got heart

  ➔ Ellipsis and Double Meaning

  ➔ The first "heart" refers to the literal organ, while the second "heart" refers to courage, passion, or genuine feelings. The ellipsis of "just because" at the beginning is common in informal speech. The phrase also uses double negative "don't mean"

• Could be standin' in a field, and he still ain't in the field

  ➔ Ellipsis, Colloquialism, and Metaphor

  ➔ "Could be standin'" is short for "He could be standing". The second "field" is metaphorical, meaning the person may be physically present (standing in a field) but not involved or capable in a more abstract sense (not 'in the field' professionally or emotionally). "ain't" is used instead of "isn't" or "is not" in an informal setting.

• Lately you keep questionin' what you get out the deal

  ➔ Present Continuous for Annoying Habits

  ➔ Using "keep questionin'" (questioning) implies that the speaker finds this action irritating or repetitive. It indicates a recurring habit that is causing frustration.
