Lyrical Breakdown of WILSHIRE - A Journey through Words and Rhymes

Fuck, yeah

Met you on a Saturday

Knew it was somethin' soon as you spoke it

Eye fucking across the table, don't think anybody noticed

You asked me if I was coming to city you from

Maybe we should kick it, I was interested

That would be dumb, if I denied

Long legs, good ears, great taste

Smell good, sense of humor, obvious a good face

And we clicked, we was at each other's hips

I ain't even wanna fuck

'Cause your presence was enough

You and I make sense, you stayed back at my telly

We was chattin' 'til morning, vibration was heavy

I wasn't drowning or yawning

That's when I told you my feelings

You told me you felt the same

But you got homie you dealin' with

Damn, I didn't know, that's a bit unexpected

But I get it, it's whatever, least I can do is respect it

We still gon' kick it and check-in like nothin' could ever stop it

The problem is he's my friend

But if I'm honest, I'm really hoping you drop him

It's morals I really have, it's lines I could never cross

But you got somethin' that make

All them good intentions get lost

I try to keep it together, never felt this way

We spent 'bout two weeks together, only skipped one day

And they say, "Bros over hoes", I'm like, "Hmm, nah, hey"

I would rather hold your hand than have a cool hand shake

But whatever, we still could be friends

It still could be chance

I'ma play it cool, we got something we cannot pretend

It's, it's like starting a race

And then when you take off

They like, "No, no, it's not a end"

It was too late and shit

FaceTiming it ain't 'bout nothing

You laughing, packing your luggage

It's nothing incriminating but please delete our discussions

You hit me with the look and replied like, "Duh, bitch"

Don't want your man to think that we creepin' behind his back

Cross the line, cross the line, cross the-

Nah, we never did that

Although I haven't seen him in months

Shit is rare he never hit back

Anyway, convince him to bring you to me

So we can kick it

Right in front of his lenses, since nothing here is malicious

You sat by me in that movie

We went outside for them doobies

We walkin' off when we talk

Man, that nigga not fucking stupid

He see it, he know it's somethin'

We fronting like, "Ha-ha-ha"

Whenever we "Ha-ha-ha" we subtly press his buttons

Not on purpose, but, man, I found my purpose

If I fucked our friendship up for you, I think it's worth it

But, nah, I can't do that, that nigga don't deserve it

And plus y'all got depth

I'm just a nigga on the surface, for real

Surface

I said surface, like, 'cause they got roots

Like, I'm the new nigga

You know, they be fuckin'

Yuh, yuh

Didn't see you a couple weeks

Think he want you away from me

Know y'all argue 'bout if you mad

You met him before you met me

I feel guilty but not as much as I should

I tried to have that self-control but not as much as I could

I been down for days

You're in my city and I can't see your face

I can't eat, knowing you with him and not at my place

I never been jealous of another man

Especially when I have everything I want at hand

Except you, you

You know, I got every damn car, multiple cribs

But it's like, "No, I want that"

He left for some days

I cleared out my sched, I cleared out my head

You dropped off at mines

I say that we fled, no you pick a place

We could Tulum, or we could Capri, or die right here

As long as you with me, I'll be at peace

You was supposed to go back home to see your bestie

I told you I can't hit that zone, too busy next week

You was like, "Hmm, I'll stay a week, she'll get over that"

Seven days wit me

Your nigga like, "Where the fuck you at?"

Dirtying my bakin' pots, tennis at my momma spot

Chauffered in the Rolls

The back entrance at them restaurants

Parks playing chess games, giving wigs pet names

Manicures, night swims, Jerrod providing methane

Shopping 'til we dropping, what you copping?

See, the price is not an option

It's investments 'cause your smile is the profit to me

I know around him you gotta act like you not into me

I know your answer

But you gotta keep it honest with me

Said you can't fully be into me 'cause you with him

Then why the fuck when we link

It's like he doesn't exist?

They all know that we're friends

But we both aware that it's more

Everything I got, if you say the word, then it's yours

The only thing I'm missing in life

I know you could be it

And everyone around me that care about me can see it

I could fuck a trillion bitches

Every country I done been in

Men or women, it don't matter

If I seen 'em, then I had 'em

But with you, it's a feeling

'Cause we're twinnin' and we're matchin'

You stayed in the car

When I went on date with that actress

Whole time I'm eatin', I couldn't wait to get back

In the back of that car with you

And talk about who we are

You told me when you're with me it's like heroin

Told me that your confidence went up since we befriended

And told me that you didn't wanna hurt him

Why we doing this?

Told me this a awkward situation

And you just wanna be through with it

Told me every time you not with him it started problems

Told me every time you not with me, you always ponder

What kinda sweater I'm wearing

What music have I been finding

Girl, you know that I'ma play it whenever

That's what we bonded over

You said you told him the truth and you never lied

Now he lookin' at you with them eyes

We never crossed the line

But he got every right to be a little pissed off

He you picked up, y'all got in argument

He got his shit off

My energy like, "Get lost"

Your energy just want peace

I couldn't even tell you his energy 'cause he don't speak

He ain't even call you his bitch

Until he seen me make you smile

That nigga threatened as shit

I'm in the wrong, tho

I picked you up, your energy off

Your lips really dry, something is off

You asked if I gotta, I asked if you gotta

We tripping on our words

Nobody is lying, Hakuna Matata

We sat in the car and cried for an hour

My shirt look like a shower head got it

We called it off

I'll skip the details but that night I seen hell

You was in a room I was paying for, I took 3 L's

No, I didn't sleep well, woke up and my knees fell

They buckled to the ground

I cannot walk, shit, I need Vill

Next day I'm drivin' 'round the city

With no destination back up

Water in my eyes kept falling like Niagra

Vill right beside me making sure I didn't crash

Or do something heinous

'Cause I'm emotionally jabbed up

You checked every box, thought it was it

Felt like I got led on and pushed off a cliff

No, I'm in the wrong, that was friend

No, fuck that, the energy we had

Never again will find it

You're in the wrong, gotta remind you

'Bout the times that you stepped

Gotta rewind it

Talkin' 'bout our kinks, real cautious with the links

You don't do that type of shit

When you're in relationship

And you're 100 with your mate

So don't go actin' like no saint

This a two way street

And shit, you knew what I was on

And while that nigga out and gone

You was lounging in my home

Shit, I even let you meet my momma and y'all got along

But shit, I'll take my L, tho it's not fun

You still got yo nigga and still had yo fun

Shit, I can't even look at you and think about bad words

That's why I called and said

We couldn't end this on bad terms

We straight like bad perm

We'll always be good friends

And laugh about it on a sandy beach

While our back burns, huh

This my perspective, this how I feel

I ain't fabricate nothing, I kept it real

I told you I loved you and always will

And if he ever put his hands on you

Promise I'll get him killed, true

True, true, true, yeah

On God, I love that girl

I'm a sh-, I'm a bad person

Like, I'm in the wrong, I'm a bad person

I had no ill intentions, though

Shit, everybody got hurt

I got hurt

It's a shit situation

All the morals and power you have

Just vanish when a certain energy is nearin'

And those feelings got so much gravity

And it's out of your control

It made me realize adults

Don't know what they doing either

We're all just children

I ain't mean to fuck nobody's shit up, man

I thought I was bulletproof

She proved me wrong, man

I felt 200 percent with her

It was beautiful

I was able to feel

But it was, it was bad timing

And I'm mad private with this side of my life

'Cause people are weirdos, and

I just try to keep anyone I care about in the shadows

Safe from the commentary and spotlight and thoughts

'Cause it's just a story for the people outside of it

But I guess you're just another chapter in a book
