Uh, Charlie, you make me feel like I could be someone
You make me feel like I could, you make me feel like I could
You make me, you make me, uh
Pum-pum
Yeah, yeah
You
You got that look on your face like you just killed someone
You
You could get away with my heart any day you want
Mm
You
Act like you're a nice guy but, baby, you know you're not
You
Got so many red flags but, boy, they just turn me on
Charlie
You know I don't have nobody
Charlie
You're the life of every party
Charlie
Please, come back to me, I didn't mean what I said
I love you, I swear
I love you, I swear
Mm
You
Rip my heart to pieces but can you rip off my clothes?
You
You've never let down since we met back in Mexico, uh
You never make me speak it
My secrets, I can keep them
Marriage's never been my type but only when it comes the weekend
You
You're just a nightmare that's why I move
I don't know why I even do it
Charlie
You know I don't have nobody
Charlie
You're the life of every party
Charlie
Please, come back to me, I didn't mean what I said
I love you, I swear
Oh
Yeah, yeah, ayy
I love you, I swear
Lola
How many times have I told you we can't keep arguing this over?
We gon' end up in a ditch somewhere
And I was all fine 'til you rushed me
When I was getting ready 'cause you need the mirror
You claim you still need to fix your hair
But if you managed your time better we are better
And our energies would align better, now think (Now think)
You act more like a lady when you speak to me
And I don't even wanna build conscience but we didn't need to be
Is it too hard for you to hear me out at least once?
Is it too hard? Is it too hard, baby? Is it too hard?
Is it too hard?
Charlie
Charlie
Why you got me doing this, baby? Ayy
You make me feel like I could fly
You make me feel like I could, hear me?
Ayy, you make me feel like I could, nah
You make me feel like I, ah
You make, you make me feel like I could fly
Fly, fly, fly
Fly, fly, fly
Fly
You make me feel like I could fly, yeah
Fly
Mm, ha-ha-ha
Explication des paroles
La chanson « Charlie » de Lola Young en featuring avec Lil Yachty aborde le thème de l’amour toxique et destructeur. Les paroles décrivent une relation difficile où les protagonistes se font du mal mutuellement, mais semblent incapables de se séparer.
Lola Young, artiste britannique émergente, apporte une voix puissante et émotionnelle à cette ballade soul/R&B, tandis que Lil Yachty apporte une touche de rap moderne avec son couplet.
Une anecdote intéressante à propos de cette chanson est que Lola Young a déclaré qu’elle l’avait écrite après avoir vécu une relation tumultueuse, ce qui explique l’authenticité et la profondeur des paroles.
La collaboration entre Lola Young et Lil Yachty sur « Charlie » offre un contraste intéressant entre le style vocal soulful de Lola et le rap plus agressif de Lil Yachty, créant une dynamique captivante tout au long de la chanson.
