From the start, I’m lookin for you heart—

By the night I’m sliding for them thighs

[Get you a man that can do both.
”Lookin for your heart” is the search for love in another person
”Sliding for them thighs is…well…]

I was told you lookin for a soldier

Play your cards right ima dark knight
[On the real, dating can feel like searching sometimes
in a major way. The idea here is “Girl if you can reciprocate
the energy, I’ll take care of you.” I’m tryna take care of somebody
but it can’t just be ANYBODY]

We don’t have to fight with the jokers

All they do is hold us down
[Dark Knight => Batman => Fighting Jokers
But also, I’m not tryna be with anyone who cares more
about the court of public opinion than they do about
building and communicating with each other. TS dead fr]
We don’t have to fight with the jokers like what does it
matter what they say or think about us? Let’s do our thing
and let ‘em hate fr]

We could be the spark for the hopeless

If you wanna run this town
[We could really be the model for people. Let’s show
’em how to do it up the right way. We move separate
from the world, but our journey is everyone else’s
inspiration]

Baby show em how we get down

Don’t you turn around 

It’s a ghost right behind you

While i’m by your side

Got your blind supervised
[While I’m with you I’m watching your back fr.
We. are. a. team. You don’t gotta worry bout nun,
not even the lil ghosties]

Runnin through my mind 

Gettin lost just to find ya
[These two lines are my poetic way of saying
”You stay on my mind, I think about you all the time”]

If it go right, it’s a dose of surprise

if we make it through alive 
[The standard is failure lbvs. Let’s do this thing and work
to make it beautiful while understanding what the
precedent is. If we turn out to be what each other was looking for
Sick! but that’s not necessarily the norm, you know?]
