Baby

Man, hold up

Baby, I know sometimes you hate me
I know it ain't as easy as we make believe
Baby, what you been up to lately?
I can tell you've got somethin' to say to me

Baby, I'll probably drive you crazy
If you tryna get there safely, you should probably take my keys
Baby, feel like I'm drunk off you, lady
Don't you ever try to play me, baby

You reproduce all of the things you consume
She says my mood could suffocate the whole room
Which rooms? Not this one here
Because this one here is full of atmosph-, hol' up

She got a point, she scores a lotta points
We both stay poised and prepared to prove buoyancy
How you hopin' to be holier than me?
My face glows from my laptop screen, I'm writin' poetry

Draw some X's over the parts you reject
Whether it doesn't connect, or if it's just incorrect
Don't be, don't be, don't be indirect, I don't mean to disrespect it's with the best
Intention that I mention I'm the engine of this train wreck

You tryna say somethin', but wait a sec
I wasn't done yet, you interrupt before I take a breath
No, I'ma hijack this argument and crash the pity party
Huh, you right, baby, let me tell you, I'm sorry, it's just that

Baby, I know sometimes you hate me
I know it ain't as easy as we make believe
Baby, what you been up to lately?
I can tell you've got somethin' to say to me

Baby, I'll probably drive you crazy
If you tryna get there safely, you should probably take my keys
Baby, feel like I'm drunk off you, lady
Don't you ever try to play me, baby

Let's try to keep it real like a cliché
I'm not okay with that he say, she say
There's no way to bring it back like a DJ
So keep pushin' each other's buttons like bad DJs

I've heard a lot of words to describe me as the culprit
And most of it was probably legit
Justifiably, I flinch when it hits, does it stick?
Are you convinced? I'm conflicted, I ain't tryna plead the Fifth

Yes, of course, I says I plead guilty
I'm the source of the stress
I guess I should be grateful that I'm blessed
To have a place at your table as a guest

In my defense, I'm not embarrassed to admit that I'm a filthy mess
And basically, I feel you're amazin'
I know I'm not easy to deal with, ain't no need for explainin'
I clearly recognize the bravery and love that you gave to me
But it don't give you the agency to treat me like a baby, baby

Baby, I know sometimes you hate me
I know it ain't as easy as we make believe
Baby, what you been up to lately?
I can tell you've got somethin' to say to me

Baby, I'll probably drive you crazy
If you tryna get there safely, you should probably take my keys
Baby, feel like I'm drunk off you, lady
Don't you ever try to play me like a ukulele, baby

This is stupid
