As Skizzy Mars and Yung Pinch collab on this track, the theme talks about having a girl that Skiz doesn’t want to keep apart of his rap lifestyle he is living. He misses her but understands that it’s better to leave her than to keep her caught up in the life he lives.
In his verse he states how thin...
[Chorus: Skizzy Mars]
I miss you, just a little
But I don’t want you caught up in the middle of my lifestyle, it's a devil
So I left you first, that's a gift and a curse
I miss you, just a little
But I don’t want you caught up in the middle of my lifestyle, it's a devil
So I left you first, that's a gift and a curse
[Verse 1: Skizzy Mars]
Told you things but I never follow the things I say
Things were going good, once I had you it went the other way
Had you on my side, had you flying, you almost levitate
Now you the things we do crazy, that shit was everyday
Ice cold, dripping
Clicquot sipping
Top floor living
I can't give in
I know this lifestyle is crazy and you can't handle that
I told you things and I meant 'em, I had to take 'em back
[Chorus: Skizzy Mars & Yung Pinch]
I miss you, just a little
But I don’t want you caught up in the middle of my lifestyle, it's a devil
So I left you first, that's a gift and a curse
I miss you, just a little
But I don’t want you caught up in the middle of my lifestyle, it's a devil
So I left you first, that's a gift and a curse (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2: Yung Pinch]
Yeah, I'm a gift and a curse if you ain't know (If you ain't know)
I took you places where these haters say we can't go (They say we can't go)
But that was way before my life had finally changed though (Finally changed though)
Wish I could throw it all away [?] (Ayy, ayy, ayy)
'Cause I miss you just a little
Got me feeling like the monkey in the middle
And this lifestyle is the devil
And I say it don't hurt but it only gets worse, yeah
[Chorus: Skizzy Mars]
I miss you, just a little
But I don’t want you caught up in the middle of my lifestyle, it's a devil
So I left you first, that's a gift and a curse
I miss you, just a little
But I don’t want you caught up in the middle of my lifestyle, it's a devil
So I left you first, that's a gift and a curse
