Kehlani's evocative lyrics unravel the complexities of a tumultuous relationship, marked by emotional depth and escalating conflicts. The narrator grapples with the paradox of being more entangled with a secondary partner than their primary one, revealing an unexpected emotional investment. Despite initial intentions of keeping the relationship casual, feelings have deepened beyond control, leading to heightened arguments and miscommunications. The repeated refrain "too deep" underscores the overwhelming nature of these emotions and situations, which become increasingly difficult to manage. The song poignantly captures the struggle between wanting to maintain distance and being drawn into intense relational dynamics that are both exhausting and unsustainable. Ultimately, it reflects on the challenges of navigating relationships that defy simple categorization, highlighting the strain of unreciprocated or misunderstood connections.
Too Deep
Lyrics
I argue with my side thing (yuh)
Way more than my main thing (yuh)
I thought we were just fucking
I can't fall in love for nothing
I can't lie to you for nothing
I made you who you wasn't
We was candy crushing
But this shit getting too deep (yeah yeah)
Too deep (yeah yeah)
Too deep (too deep) for me
Getting too deep (yeah yeah)
Too deep (yeah yeah)
Too deep (too deep) for me
This shit too deep
Too aggravated, too complicated
More, more, more, more complicated
Le-le-le-less communication
Less conversation, more confrontation
I'ma catch a case, no exoneration
I'ma go to jail, now I'm contemplating
I don't know what you see in me
I don't ever wanna be with you
I don't know why you pass for it
Wasting energy texting me
Text messages, thread messages
I don't wanna think less of you, no (no)
I just wanna see the best for you, yeah
But this shit getting too deep
(Getting, too) too deep (deep, yeah)
Too deep (getting too deep) for me
Getting too deep (yeah yeah)
(Getting too) too deep (yeah yeah)
(Getting too) too deep (too deep) for me
This shit too deep
Too many steps, too many levels
Too many laps, too many hurdles
You don't wanna get hurt by me
I don't wanna be a crutch for ya
Too insane, too irritated
Too insufficient, too inconsistent
You just wanna talk, I don't wanna listen
Now I wanna talk, you don't wanna listen
I don't ever wanna lose you again
You don't ever wanna see me again
Say that I'm done, leave you alone
Mark you, then call you again (again, again, again, again)
Again (again, again)
Not like this usually
But this shit's getting too deep (yeah yeah)
Too deep (yeah yeah)
Too deep for me
Getting too deep (just a little too)
Too deep (little too deep)
Too deep for me (just a little too deep)
This shit too deep
