about
This is a fun, playful song about the progression of a relationship. It's done in a country/rap style which is different from my normal reggae/dancehall vibe. The song demonstrates conflict in the beginning and shows growth throughout which leads to the relationship being in a good place in the end.
lyrics
she got me wrapped
around her finger in a way…
I’m wrapped around her finger
like a wedding ring
wrapped around her finger always
I’m wrapped around her finger
like a wedding ring
like a wedding (wedding)
a wedding ring
like a wedding (wedding)
a wedding ring
she always tryna tell me what to do
baby girl you must have
had me misconstrued
I don’t really love the attitude
what happened to the magic
why you being so rude?
all I did was be a good dude…
helped you with the cleaning
even cooked you food
honestly, you’re lucky you’re so cute
and when you smile
I forget why I’m mad at you
maybe I’m whipped, maybe I ain’t
this girl is a trip, but worth the headache
We turned a toxic love
Into a beautiful thing
I think this means forever
babygirl we’ll stick together
so maybe I’m whipped, maybe I ain’t
this girl is a trip, but worth the headache
We turned a toxic love
Into a beautiful thing
I think this means forever
babygirl we’ll stick together
cuz I’m wrapped
around her finger in a way…
I’m wrapped around her finger
like a wedding ring
wrapped around her finger always
I’m wrapped around her finger
like a wedding ring
like a wedding (wedding)
a wedding ring
like a wedding (wedding)
a wedding ring
can you believe she had me go to therapy?
I thought it was for her
until I learned about me
turns out I got some work to do
can’t expect someone to change
if you can’t change too
and honestly it’s probably for the best
damn it feels so good
to get it off my chest
now I can give you more of me
don’t wanna give you less
so when I ask you for your hand
I hope you gon’ say yes
so maybe I’m whipped, maybe I ain’t
this girl is a trip, and I ain’t no saint
we turned a toxic love
into a beautiful thing
I think this means forever
babygirl we’ll stick together
so maybe I’m whipped, maybe I ain’t
this girl is a trip, and I ain’t no saint
we turned a toxic love
into a beautiful thing
I think this means forever
babygirl we’ll stick together
cuz I’m wrapped
around her finger in a way…
I’m wrapped around her finger
like a wedding ring
wrapped around her finger always
I’m wrapped around her finger
like a wedding ring
like a wedding (wedding)
a wedding ring
I can hear the wedding bells
go “ding-dong-ding-dong”
