In an interview with Zach Sang BANKS explained that while there’s always some amount of autobiographical truth in all of her songs, this one is more of an imagined scenario of a girl that likes a guy who doesn’t like her back at all, yet she’s so confidently delusional about the situation that BANKS...

Ooh

[Verse 1]
Therapist called me desperate
Said I was wasting all my youth on somebody that's not invested
I said he's eclectic
I said that he just need some time to figure out
Who is to love and who's to mess with
[Pre-Chorus]
Wait
If you need some time, I'll wait
'Cause one day you'll be mine
People can't escape their fate
[Chorus]
And they can call me delulu
I only wanna be with you
I know we're gonna see it through
Can't wait for you to see it too
And they can call me delulu (Delulu)
I only wanna be with you (I only wanna be with you)
I know we're gonna see it through
Can't wait for you to see it too
[Verse 2]
My therapist just quit me
She said that she was sick and tired of sayin' the same thing
Sayin' the same thing every week
Fuck that bitch though, she don't get me
I told her he's sent from above
I told her he was my true love, he just don't know it yet
[Pre-Chorus]
Wait
It doesn't gotta be today
As long as you end up with me
I’m patient on that ass like
[Chorus]
And they can call me delulu
I only wanna be with you
I know we're gonna see it through
Can't wait for you to see it too
And they can call me delulu (Delulu)
I only wanna be with you (I only wanna be with you)
I know we're gonna see it through
Can't wait for you to see it too
[Outro]
Ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Oh, oh
Ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Oh, oh

I always write about myself but that song in particular is where I was thinking of a really funny plot where I’m like, oh, there’s this girl who’s obsessed with this guy who’s just not into her at all and she’s delusional about it and she’s really proudly delusional, where she has no shame about it....
