Lyrics and translation
Original
I remember you was conflicted, misusing your influence.
Sometimes I did the same.
If these walls could talk. If these walls could talk. If these walls could talk.
If these walls could talk. If these walls could talk. If these walls could talk.
Sex.
She just wanna close her eyes and swim, with you, with you, with you.
Exercise your right to work it out.
It's true, it's true, it's true.
Shout out to the birthday girl, say hey, hey, say hey.
Oh, no.
Everyone deserves a night to play, play, she play.
Only when you tell her no. If these walls could talk.
I can feel your rain when it cries. Gold lives inside of you.
If these walls could talk. I love it when I'm in it.
I love it when I'm in it.
These walls could talk, they'd tell me to swim good.
No boat, I float better than he would.
No life jacket, I'm not the God of Nazareth, but your flood can be misunderstood. Wall telling me they full of pain, resentment.
Need someone to live in them just to relieve tension. Me, I'm just a tenant.
Landlord said, "These wall vacant more than a minute. " These wall are vulnerable.
Exclamation. Interior pink, color-coordinated.
I interrogated every nook and cranny. I mean, it's still amazing. Before, they couldn't stand me.
These walls wanna cry tears. These walls happier when I'm here.
These walls never could hold up. Every time I come around, demolition might. . .
If these walls could talk.
I can feel your rain when it cries. Gold lives inside of you.
If these walls could talk. I love it when I'm in it.
I love it when I'm in it.
These walls could talk, they'd tell me to go deep.
Yelling at me continuously, I can see. Your defense mechanism is my decision.
Knock these walls down, that's my religion. Walls feeling like they ready to close in.
I suffocate, then catch my second wind. I resonate in these walls.
I don't know how long I can wait in these walls. I been on the streets too long.
Looking at you from the outside in.
They sing the same old song, about how they walls always the cleanest. I beg to differ, I must have missed them.
I'm not involved, I'd rather diss 'em. I'd rather guard.
On you, put your wall up, 'cause when I come around, demolition go. . .
If these walls could talk.
I can feel your rain when it cries. Gold lives inside of you.
If these walls could talk.
I love it when I'm in it.
I love it when I'm in it.
If your walls could talk, they'd tell you it's too late.
Your destiny accepted your fate. Throw the accessories and stash 'em with the yards. Taint the recipe, the
Bible, and God. Wall telling you that commissary is low.
Race wars happening, no calling CO. No calling your mother to save you.
Homies that say you're irreputable, not acceptable.
Your behavior savvy the board like, a killer that turned snitch. Walls is telling me you a bitch.
You pray for appeals hoping the warden would afford them.
That sentence so important. Walls telling you to listen to Sing About Me.
Retaliation is strong, you even dream 'bout me.
Killed my homeboy and God spared your life. Dumb criminal got indicted same night.
So when you play this song, rewind the first verse. About me abusing my power so you could hurt.
About me and her in the shower whenever she horny.
About me and her in the after hours of the morning. About her baby daddy currently serving life.
And how she think about you until you meet up at night.
About the only girl who cared about you when you asked her. And how she fucking on a famous rapper. Walls could talk, talk.
I remember you was conflicted, misusing your influence.
Sometimes I did the same.
Abusing my power full of resentment.
Resentment that turned into a deep depression.
Found myself screaming in the hotel room
