Anik said on Instagram that this song is about having too much weight on your shoulders and not knowing what to do, and that burden becomes more difficult when you’re in a relationship as you could end up hurting your partner.
[Intro]
Ooh
Okay
Foreign
[Verse 1]
Can I find my way back? Find my way back to you
We hit the club next
I didn’t know what to do, baby
The weight on my back keeps breaking me in two
Look
Bridging my gaps, tryna bridge my gaps so I don’t break
Why couldn't we last? I ask myself every day
The weight on my back, broke everything I knew, knew
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell ‘em like ay, don’t wait
It’s gon’ take me time to frame my mind
Ay, don’t wait
It’s the season, feeling decent, yeah
Ay, don’t wait
Push ‘til we pull ‘til we cross that line
Ay, don’t wait
I’ve got demons, I need healing, yeah
[Chorus]
Pretty little thing, I lovе that little thing, but I want that little thing (get up)
Prеtty little thing, I love that little thing, but I want that little thing (get up)
Pretty little thing, I love that little thing, but I want that little thing, but
This cannot be a thing, so before I run away could we have this last dance? (get up)
[Verse 2]
Tonight I'm gon' dance
Dance 'til I forget the truth
I miss breaking your back (who that?)
There go your substitute, mm
Damn I relapsed, yeah
I guess I spoke too soon, ay
On the off-chance, we can seal up the wounds
Let's review the hard facts, and not just your point of view
It's just dirt on my back
But you thought you found my tune
Yeah, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell ‘em like ay, don’t wait
It’s gon’ take me time to frame my mind
Ay, don’t wait
It’s the season, feeling decent, yeah
Ay, don’t wait
Push ‘til we pull ‘til we cross that line
Ay, don’t wait
I’ve got demons, I need healing, yeah
[Chorus]
Pretty little thing, I love that little thing, but I want that little thing (get up)
Pretty little thing, I love that little thing, but I want that little thing (get up)
Pretty little thing, I love that little thing, but I want that little thing, but
This cannot be a thing, so before I run away could we have this last dance? (get up)
[Bridge]
My baby, my baby, yeah
Bye baby, bye baby, yeah
Ay, ay
My baby, my baby, yeah
Bye baby, bye baby, yeah
Ay, ay
My baby, my baby, yeah
Bye baby, bye baby, yeah
Ay, ay
My baby, my baby, yeah
Bye baby, bye baby, yeah
And everybody say ay
My baby, my baby, yeah (woo)
Bye baby, bye baby, yeah
Ay, ay
My baby, my baby, yeah
Bye baby, bye baby, yeah
Ay, ay
My baby, my baby, yeah
Bye baby, bye baby, yeah
Ay, ay
My baby, my baby, yeah
Bye baby, bye baby, yeah
Yeah
[Chorus]
Pretty little thing, I love that little thing, but I want that little thing (get up)
Pretty little thing, I love that little thing, but I want that little thing (get up)
Pretty little thing, I love that little thing, but I want that little thing, but
This cannot be a thing, so before I run away could we have this last dance?
