Apollo nineteen - Backstroke [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse one]

Well she had
Crazy swag mac makeup expensive bag she was straight up out a macys ad
First thought was this lady bad, so then I asked
My homie what should I do to approach her
He said bro you dont know her just be patient
She'll come over, kinda like clockwork
Next weekend house party I was sipping lemonade mix with vodka
Running tables 3 games straight the same girl made me an offer
Told me we should be partners, cause nobody could stop us
Rerack these cups up proper, now everything is going awesome
Cause I'm cracking jokes, shes laughing so, I'm acting like a character
We smiling, tripping, wildin, taking pictures on her camera
Now its getting late but if its straight I'm still tryna hang with ya
She said shes tired and still drunk suprised that she still standing up
Excuses damn I understand, your trying not to offend me
She said nonsense please text me next week if your not busy
Sounds good cause I'll be free, amazed how shes so unique
Shes down to earth, she knows her worth, plus shes cute and friendly
Feeling froggy take the next leap, I'm grown up Im no tadpole
Caught the best fish in the sea, so theres no need to backstroke

[Verse two]

Month later still no title but theres rumors were an item
Neither one of us deny it and the thought just sounds enticing
Like why do we keep holding back these feelings that were fighting
Lets just make it official cause whats a cake without the icing
This is priceless, shes so sweet she makes my life easy to digest
We have fun if were acting dumb or just talking and vibing
For a few months things were smooth, thinking back got me nostalgic
But some things that I chose to lose, including my old habits
One day she came at me backwards said lets get hammered like the old days
I told her that sounds tempting but I can't accept my old ways
Can't travel down that road again, I'm living by GODs teachings
Getting drunk every weekend is like sinking in the deepend
But who am I to hold you back, your entitled to your freedom
She said I was misleading i said I got my reasons
You know I put my faith in God, you know how much hes blessed me
She told me dont stress me then started to second guess me
I remember when life was stress free, still I gotta have hope
Im swimmin in a sea of memorys, but should I backstroke? I dont know...

[Verse three]

Now I'm feeling all the tension, everything turns into a arguement
Asked her if we matter more than the people that she parties with
She says I have no common sense, cause she always puts me first
Well you talk a good game but actions speak louder than words
And I heard problems can make a pair stronger
But sometimes I wonder if we should try this any longer
I dont see sunshine, cause we go back and forth
Like I'm the father your the daughter but let me ask you something
That you need to answer honest, did we rush to fast into this?
Everything got so bad so quick, I know we have these feelings still
But will they last through thin and thick? I just dont know what to think
Thats judging by our actions, my heart is sailing on the ocean and your the ships captain
But you got me held captive, I feel like a refugee under castro
I'm tryna swim to freedom now, let me do my backstroke
