Bryson Tiller is amazing. All of his songs are songs that everyone can vibe with. They all have meaning behind them. Not to mention, Tiller doesn't come out with new songs often, so when he does release a new single or a new album, you can tell he pours his heart into it.
Sorrows
This is on my favorite and most recent album: ANNIVERSARY
"I said I know we ain't on the same page no more
And that's a shame that we ain't, we used to be so close
Yes, I'm down and I'm drownin' in my sorrows, babe (Baby, yeah)Yeah, yeah
You don't miss me, babe
Don't know why you're tryin' to convince me, babe
Know there's been somebody else since me, babe
Think I might do the same, don't tempt me, baby
Hit the party and get friendly
Honestly no, I don't got it in me
It's no fun when you're not here with me
It's no wonder you're not here with me, yeah
Yet you tell me there's no way"
Recently, I just got out of, yet another failed talking stage. I jam out to this song. I love it. This song is about a guy getting into his feels about a girl. She leads him on, they're on this on-again-off-again relationship. They're close and he doesn't want what they have to go away. He'll always be there regardless of the situation.
Somethin Tells Me
This is a great breakup song.
"Lay down baby I'mma take it slow
Can't let this thing go to waste, oh no
Before we crash, hit the brakes, oh no
Call, then I got to your place, oh no
Still getting voicemail, oh no
Fuck it, leave a voicemail, oh no
Hey, looks like we at the end of the roadYeah somethin' tells me
We ain't gon' last baby
We ain't gon' last baby"
So all throughout the song, he says how he knows/has a gut feeling this relationship he is in right now is destined to fail. However, at the very end of the song, he says they can work things out, but only because he doesn't want to lose what they have already.
We Both Know
"I don't expect for you to settle for me
But I hate it when you say to me
You're done playing games with me
Done tryna wait for me, still check for me
You can't get away from me, yeah, yeah
Go tell them you still love me, yeah
Don't know it but you're stuck with me, yeah
By now you know you're stuck with me"
This song is about a couple who fights A LOT. They both act like they want to leave each other, but they know deep down, they are stuck with each other.
Canceled
Another song I'm obsessed with.
"All them n***** thirsty, but you would never hurt me
Not like I hurt you, the shit I do is hurtful
You feel like a damn fool
I wish I had a manual to better understand you ('stand you)
You say I'm a handful, I'm in your head like Cantu
I tell you what I can do
Be a better man to you, this Henny made me ramble
Called and got no answer
Wrote this fuckin' anthem, alert you like it's amber (like amber)
Distress to my damsel
But she say I'm canceled
I just got back in touch with her
Used to talk a lot, used to down to ride
I can't do this hi and bye
Don't see eye to eye but I know that we got time
To fix it, we not blind"
Once again, this song is about an on-again-off-again couple. She finally called it quits and he wasn't expecting it at all. Better yet, he realizes he could've treated her better so he's trying to "win her back", but she doesn't want him.
Blame
This is another one of my favorite Tiller singles. It's a short one, but a good one.
"Say I didn't love you, you know a n***** loved you
Did you forget to mention
All the things I did for you, times I made a trip'
Cause I know you hate the distance
Baby, it's alright, it's alright
Go ahead and take your time
But you gotta make your mind
Make your mind up, ooh
Girl, it's on you to tell me what you wanna do"
This is from a guy's POV when a girl is stuck in a situation between having to choose between 2 guys or just confused on what to do. She doesn't want to make the wrong decision by being with him. He's giving her reassurance, but on his end, it's getting to the point where he feels like he isn't enough.
Things Change
"She like, "How could you leave?"
Let things be done
Find you someone
Miss the way you love me
Don't call me for once
Swear you're no fun
You was loving him too, but you swear you're the one
Girl, you know I can't settle for it
Try to tell myself I don't need that"
This song is from a POV from a situation that doesn't get talked about often but happens constantly. Basically, a girl falls for a guy (Tiller) and he never gave her his full efforts. She fell for him and the feelings weren't mutual. He's on a new girl now. She's driving him crazy by asking him questions about the new girl so he tells her to find someone else, that he knows she was talking to him and another guy at the same time, etc.
