In this song, Dusty most likely talks about his social anxiety, how he has issues with going out in the public and talking to girls without hurting them, that’s why he talks about taking uppers when he wakes up.
[Intro]
And it's all 'cause of me
[Chorus]
I'm taking uppers to wake up
And taking downers to sleep
Shawty drippin' in makeup
And it's all 'cause of me
Baby, I'm a heart breaker
I will cut, make you bleed
Let me see what you're made of
I know love isn't cheap
[Verse 1]
I know love isn't cheap
So I'ma play her and break her for free (Huh?)
Like what's happenin' to me?
I think I'm addicted, I need to get clean
Can't leave my house 'less these uppers on me
Going to Hell if I ever OD
Pop 'til I drop or somebody stop me
I think I'm a fiend
[Chorus]
I'm taking uppers to wake up
And taking downers to sleep
Shawty drippin' in makeup
And it's all 'cause of me
Baby, I'm a heart breaker
I will cut, make you bleed
Let me see what you're made of
I know love isn't cheap
[Verse 2]
Not what I want, baby, it's what I need
Fuck, I'm racing to Hell, I'm increasing the speed
Give a fuck 'bout my life, I don't care if I leave
Grab a hold of my knife, I'ma cure this disease
[Bridge]
I'ma cure this disease (I think I'm a fiend)
Like, what's happenin' to me? (Need to get clean)
I'm increasing the speed
Why they staring at me?
[Chorus]
I'm taking uppers to wake up
And taking downers to sleep
Shawty drippin' in makeup
And it's all 'cause of me
Baby, I'm a heart breaker
I will cut, make you bleed
Let me see what you're made of
I know love isn't cheap
