I got a boyfriend now

C'mon, uh, uh, uh, yo, yo

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

Yo, this nigga lookin' like love, no doubt
Sophisticated thug keep me guessin'
Said it would be a blessin' just to watch you undressin'
Callin' you daddy, late nights I'm layin' on your chest
And, stay reminiscin' bout the rest
And, how they less than, trying to come between what we share
Can't compare, could have been left
But when it's mine, I never share, fight to the death
If need be to prove that, wounds from your war
Other bitches couldn't soothe that, broke from a bad back
I'm holdin' you down, throwin' dirt with other bitches
But them other fishes drown, locked in, for however long
I'm playin' it smart, court dates in other cities
There I'm playin' my part, wif-ey, in ya life see
Forever be us, passenger side of a Bentley
Or the number 2 bus, tell the whole world, papi
Eve don't want nobody else, with other niggas pick and choose
But you, I'm keepin' for myself

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

All my peoples thinkin' I'm delirious
But the love I feel is serious
Couples of the world, no comparing us
Been through fist fights with niggas when I see it escalate
I'm the getaway driver so my nigga can escape
Pull my ice for the bail, spending nights in jail
Drawing hearts on the wall with our names around the cell
It made a little craziness, maybe I'm blind
But for me to leave now lookin' for love would take a lifetime
So I'm keepin' mine, uh-huh, fuck it keep me blind
Feels like heaven when we makin' love, controllin' my spine
Wine and dine, I don't need that as long as long as you wit me
And you bitches thinkin' that you competition, come and get me
My position is held, some try and all fail
Pussy piece a motherfucker, uh-huh, good enough to sell
Never leave his baby girl, mad 'cause he claim me
Only thug in the hood that was wild enough to tame me

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

I'm the bitch he'll never leave, helped him build his luxuries
Carry stories that can hurt him, still he only trustin' me
Secrets never leave my mouth, even if they torture me
Always taught to hold the ground, that's why I'll always be his queen
It's some thug shit things see him in the party, start to flip (what the fuck?)
Curse him out on the regular just to make him sick
Disappear for a day or two to test his loyal ground
Keep my dogs on a short leash, controllin' the growl
Open wide, I don't give a fuck, I'm swallowing my pride
And he fast to blast a cat that he think be on the prowl
But I'll never let him go, temper flare, let it go
Always be his extra back bone, quick to let a nigga know
Always by his side, Eve the apple in his eye
Us together ain't no stopping snatchin' pieces of the pie
Us together in our own world, what's his becomes mine
Exceed eternity with him we'll stand the test of time

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him
I'm gonna love him, I'm gonna love him

Gotta man that I think I'm gon' love forever
And forever, we'll be together (c'mon)
No matter where he goes, I'll be thinkin' of him

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines: "Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet" So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other: "I had all and then most of you" Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart "Some and now none of you" Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship. This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
