In this song, Jay talks about being in a relationship with a girl who has become seemingly uninvested and uninterested in their love. He talks about how he usually never cares what others say, think or do, but in this scenario, but in this scenario, his girl’s recent change in attitude lately weighs...
[Verse 1]
Little time to know what I was looking for, ayy
Thinking it was over when they closed the doors, ayy
Mama looking at me like, "Though you ignore-", ayy
"-what the world is saying, read the chapters more", ayy
Conflicted understanding what the meaning is, lord
Self discipline, if anything, that's what it was
Happiness in reach if you're from where I'm from
Just another place where they can tear you apart
Give my heart to do good in this world
Give my heart to get through to you, girl
You give me distance and cold stares
If only we could elevate the soul, cos I'd go there
No man's land can be vicious, it's nowhere
[Chorus]
But it's alright, baby
Where's your mind at lately?
Where's your soul at, baby?
Where's your mind at lately?
Where's your soul at?
Yeah
But it's alright, baby
Where's your mind at lately?
Where's your soul at, baby?
Where's your mind at lately?
Where's your soul at?
[Verse 2]
Yeah they been real bla-bla with it
Ride, ride with it
Posting cos they always getting all tight with me
Thinking to myself, I hope the almighty with 'em
But who am I to be judging
This ain't up for discussion
Late summers, I was chilling up in Paris with cousins
You'd see "La Vie Est Belle"
And we don't care
And they don't know what I been through
But the flow stay cold when I'm confused
See I don't lose and I take no L's
Only taking harsh lessons when I need to propel
Old flame kept giving me hell
Same things only told me to tell
How long muhfucka? (how long? how long?)
Nigga, I don't know
But I had to get my head right
And I had to get my shit right
And I had to get it right this time
[Chorus]
But it's alright, baby
Where's your mind at lately?
Where's your soul at, baby?
Where's your mind at lately?
Where's your soul at?
Yeah
But it's alright, baby
Where's your mind at lately?
Where's your soul at, baby?
Where's your mind at lately?
Where's your soul at?
[Ending]
Tell you it's alright, tell you it's right
Tell you it's alright, tell you it's right
Tell you it's alright, tell you it's right
Tell you it's alright, tell you it's right
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
