Everybody know in a relationship sometimes
like y'all fall out over petty stuff.
If it's something that's not too serious,
like he just might need to pack a little bit
and leave for a little bit.
You need a break,
but you can still come back.
For that, you're not gonna really like
tell someone to leave for good,
it's not that serious,
but you are like kinda warning them
and letting them know like,
Hey, this could happen for good,
if you continue to do what you're doing,
or if you make it go any further.
It was Erykah Badu's "Bag Lady" that was sampled.
"Pack light"
Remember what she did that?
"Bag Lady you gon hurt yo back"
And then she told her to pack light.
So I just...
I guess that wasn't my idea.
That was Oak's idea.
I didn't pull up and be like,
"Hey, can we sample Erykah Badu's song?"
Like he was already making that beat when I walked in
and I just thought it would be dope
to follow through with it
because y'all know Erykah Badu is a legend.
When Oak was doing the beat,
he just added some sauce on it.
And he put like the "Computer Love" beat, the famous
"Boom snap boom, yeah"
You know what I'm talking about?
Really arrogant, silent treatment.
Not talking to you, walking around,
like with this just weird energy and weird vibes, you know?
And it's just like rubbing you the wrong way.
It makes you feel,
just feel like you wanna boss up and say something to him,
slap him upside the head or somethin'
I'm really easy going.
So like a lot of things
like I don't like to argue.
I don't like to do all that nagging
and that crazy stuff going on in house.
I guess, you know, sometimes girls
just have their breaking points
and they tired of it.
Like this is where I draw the line.
Like you need to chill out and stop acting like that.
Or you can get the fuck on.
You wear so many hats
and it's like
on top of everything that you already have to deal with,
now you got to deal with someone's attitude.
They have no reason to be acting like that.
Like a man acting like he on his period
or something like that, like he's PMSing
So it's just like,
I've allowed things to happen that shouldn't have happened.
But as time went past,
I've learned my worth more as a woman.
And I'm basically stating that
I won't allow those things to happen again.
Sometimes guys just walk around
and they feel like they're right about everything
and the world revolves around them.
A lot of that be like manipulation.
And you know them trying to make you feel bad
or trying to like do power plays and stuff
to make you feel like this.
I see through you,
it's not gonna work.
And you can go on and puff up your chest.
Like you can get angry all you want,
but it better not go any further,
meaning like you better not disrespect me,
Put your hands on me.
You know all these things that these guys try to do,
like to make it seem like
they're these big bad wolves
gonna blow you down.
You better not blow me down.
This whole song is basically a warning,
a warning to whoever you're with to
you know, get it together. And you know,
we can talk it out.
You ain't got to walk around with these bad vibes.
I've had enough of the bad vibes.
Bring me some good ones
or you can get the hell on.
Guys will be like
I'm gonna go find someone else.
But really what they're trying to say is,
I'm gonna go find somebody that will put up with my BS
and let me do whatever I want.
That can never be me letting you just walk all over me
Nothing is ever gonna be like perfect.
And I don't feel like your significant other
is always going to be right about everything.
They're not always gonna be in the right.
And you should never be like a yes kind of woman
or a yes kind of man.
Like, "Oh yeah, yeah.
Just do what you want."
You wanna be able to keep that person
that you're with grounded.
So that they don't go too far from where they should be
as far as like how they treat you,
how they treat others
and you just don't wanna uphold somebody that you love
and they're wrong.
I'm gonna treat you right, always,
but I'm gonna check you if you messing up.
I don't know, I just went in the booth
and I'm like, I wanna bridge to the song.
But it's like I'm having a conversation with them.
Like you never argue with somebody
like you don't get it.
Like, no, you just don't get it.
It's mandatory to give warnings out.
Maybe a couple of them.
Make sure when your lover is also like,
doing something right, you tell them too.
Because like that makes them want to keep
doing things right.
But if you don't acknowledge that
and you only acknowledge the bad things,
it's only gonna like kinda discourage them
and make them feel like that's all they stands out.
