This song is about having a partner who is emotionally unavailable to you.
Girli performed this during her tour before it was released
[Verse 1]
Here we go again
Can't just get drunk
Late texts, "I miss you so much"
Then you go and tell your friends
"She's just, a lot won't stop
Acting like we're in love"
And you cancel our plans for the weekend
Like you're washing your hands, off the feelings
It takes more than a GIF to forgive it and
Get me back on my back lookin' up at the cracks in your ceiling
[Pre-Chorus]
Over the four-hour deep chats
After the wine and the weed
You oughta see someone for that
Not me
[Chorus]
Get your ego out my bed 'cause three's a crowd
I don't want nobody else, but you'rе bringing me down
Now I'm really getting tirеd of your inner child
'Cause, man, he's really having a breakdown
I'm not gonna let you suck my energy
'Cause you can't be arsed to go to therapy
Yeah, I'm really getting tired of your inner child
'Cause, man, he's really having a breakdown
[Verse 2]
Here we go again
Skateboard, soft boy
Peter Pan, never grow up
Types trying to pretend
They got young blood
Run riot, acting like they're so tough
But I'm so
[Pre-Chorus]
Over the four-hour deep chats
After the wine and the weed
You oughta see someone for that
Not me
[Chorus]
Get your ego out my bed 'cause three's a crowd
I don't want nobody else, but you're bringing me down
Now I'm really getting tired of your inner child
'Cause, man, he's really having a breakdown
I'm not gonna let you suck my energy
'Cause you can't be arsed to go to therapy
Yeah, I'm really getting tired of your inner child
'Cause, man, he's really having a breakdown, oh-oh
[Post-Chorus]
Inner child, inner child
Inner child, inner child
Inner child, inner child
Man, he's really having a breakdown
[Chorus]
Get your ego out my bed 'cause three's a crowd
I don't want nobody else, but you're bringing me down
Now I'm really getting tired of your inner child
'Cause, man, he's really having a breakdown
I'm not gonna let you suck my energy
'Cause you can't be arsed to go to therapy
Yeah, I'm really getting tired of your inner child
'Cause, man, he's really having a breakdown, oh-oh
[Post-Chorus]
Inner child, inner child
Inner child, inner child
Inner child, inner child
Man, he's really having a breakdown, oh-oh

This song is about someone’s ego and immaturity getting in the way of you having something special. I wrote it about something I had with someone that could’ve been a relationship but didn’t end up going past the casual stage, because they needed to grow up and I was already past that.
