This is me right now sheWhat I said 'bout it not my styleRide with the East she say "Oh please"I am Sy fucking WavyI feel like shit justNot go my wayShe gon' just uh BalmainI don't even uh ride with a K and I say

Turn me down, bitch slowlyI don't ride with the intro, pleaseCan I just know what can make you hold meI've been thinking of you when it feel like trophiesWhen they ask bout you say "How you know me?"I've been gutting gars cause I'm feeling lonelyI bet you areAnd I've always been a king I can see my scarsLose an awful lot of petals what can do me wrongI've been losing all control tryna push a breakPedal on me feeling wrong so the gas can staySpring forward in this bitch but I need a breakSo the leaves get rakedThen I chuckled then I laughed cause she talking 'bout dateAnd I'm sorry it wasn't me and my eyes look bakedI can see the leaves fall from the tree each day

I've been losing petalsI don't feel it's specialMoving fast on the metalAnd I don't care what we areI've been losing petalsI don't feel it's specialMoving fast on the metalAnd I don't care what we are

Computer love like it's NevelBlowing off the steam the top of the kettlePuffing on a leaf I lost the petalsLeft all for me the stem make-believe and it'sAll I seeAnd it's falling from meSo I see that pink gon haul offKnock the wheels off this bitch it's gon roll offAnd it's hard for me to steerLeft it all behind me I can see it in rearTryna get this shit out but it's stuck in gearSwitch this bitch 'bout a couple times tryna make it hereOnly lose petals in it I can't shed a tearFuck a twin flame in it I'm fighting demons hereAnd I don't wanna fall 'cause I need you hereAnd I don't wanna fall 'cause I need you here

I've been losing petalsI don't feel it's specialMoving fast on the metalAnd I don't care what we areI've been losing petalsI don't feel it's specialMoving fast on the metalAnd I don't care what we are

BrandLine 7

Balmain

The French luxury house founded in Paris in 1945, known for sharp, embellished tailoring. Said out loud, it's also bail, man: she's about to walk out on him.

The storyLine 14

To gut a cigar is to empty out its tobacco so it can be rolled with weed. A gar is also a long-nosed Florida fish, the kind you clean after a day of fishing.

The storyLines 17 to 24

The verse runs on puns that come in pairs. Petals sound like pedals, so shedding them turns into losing control of a car, and the brake he can't reach is also the break he needs. Spring shows up as the clocks jumping ahead and fall shows up as leaves piling up in the yard, so the seasons move as fast as he does.

The storyLines 25 to 28

The hook names the first stage of the cherry blossom's cycle, and petals sound like pedals again. Put one next to metal and it's pedal to the metal: he's flooring it, and he's stopped trying to define what the two of them are.

Film and TVLine 33

Nevel Papperman

The scheming rival on Nickelodeon's iCarly, a web-savvy kid with a hopeless crush on Carly. He compares a love that only lives on a screen to Nevel's.

The storyLines 34 to 36

Weed is sold as flower, so the blossom doubles as what he's smoking. He's burned through the leaf and the petals and is left with the stem, the part nobody wants.

The storyLines 39 to 45

The car keeps going after the hook. The wheels are coming off, he can barely steer, everything he left is in the rearview, and the gears won't shift. He can drop petals but he can't cry, which is the hardest thing he admits in the song.

ReferenceLine 46

Twin flame

A New Age idea, popular online, that two people can share one soul split in half, a step past soulmates. He waves the idea away.
