It’s been wayyyyy past time for you to stop blocking your blessings and start blocking those toxic exes. Ari Lennox gives you raw & soulful relatability woven into the fabrics of ‘Blocking You’. She doesn’t miss a beat nor bite her tongue on this slow tempo tune. It’s Miss Lennox at her finest.
[Verse 1]
Hey, feelin' too accessible
Exhaustin' the only peace I'll ever know
Searchin' for something tangible
Privacy is cardinal
But I can't seem to face myself alone
Afraid of where my thoughts can travel, so
[Chorus]
Blockin' you on everything
(I'm gon', I'm gonna)
Blockin' you on everything
(Gonna, gon', gon')
Blockin' you on everything
I need a moment (Yeah), I need a day (Yeah)
To restore this place
[Post-Chorus]
Fly, take a trip
Don't be in my hair makin' ends split
Stay out of that basement talkin' all that shit
Ain't no shooter (Yeah), deck your shit
[Verse 2]
Haters, family (Yeah)
Neighbors, police
Trollin' relentlessly
Blockin' you on everything
Exes, labels
Bill-collectors, cable
All can come and catch a fade though (So)
Accountability, tuition
That bitch that cut me off while I was drivin'
The ego, a whirlwind
Anxiety, ADHD
Addiction, bad company
Fear of true healin'
Blockin' you on everything
Said I can't take, no
[Chorus]
Blockin' you on everything
No
Blockin' you on everything (I got to do it)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Blockin' you on everything
I need a moment, I need a day
To restore this place
[Post-Chorus]
Said, fly, take a trip (Yeah)
Don't be in my hair makin' ends split
Stay out of the basement talkin' all that shit
Ain't no shooter, deck your shit
[Outro]
Shooter, shit (Ooh)
Ain't no shoot, ain't no shoot, ooh (Ooh)
Ain't no shoot, ooh
I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna hear what I did
It wasn't okay, that's how I feel
Fuck out my face, ooh
