Emotionally Intelligent (still petty sometimes) šŸ˜‰

[INTRO – spoken] Okay… I’m calm. But don’t get brave. [VERSE 1] I got a soft smile, but I clock details, I forgive fast but I keep emails. I’m the peace sign with a side-eye too, I’m so evolved… but I’m human, boo. I don’t do drama, I do boundaries, I don’t do chaos, it just finds me. I’m sweet, I’m solid, I’m not for play— I’ll wish you well… from far away. [PRE-CHORUS] Mm—look at me, staying cute in a crisis, Heart so big but my patience is priceless. I breathe in deep, let it roll off my chest… Then I remember exactly what you said. [CHORUS] I’m emotionally intelligent… and still petty sometimes, I can heal and still hit you with a ā€œthat’s fine.ā€ I don’t crash out, I just exit with grace— And leave you thinking ’bout me for days. I’m emotionally intelligent… and still petty sometimes, I got love in my heart and receipts in my mind. I’m the grown one, but don’t get it confused— I’m peaceful, not played. I got rules. [VERSE 2] I don’t raise my voice, I raise my standards, I don’t chase closure, I change the channel. If it’s not mutual, I’m not involved, If it’s not respect, it’s not getting solved. I got my little treats, my little walks, My little ā€œnoā€s, my little talks. I’m not cold, I’m just warm with a lock— You don’t get access just ’cause you knock. [PRE-CHORUS] Mm—look at me, minding my business, Still the vibe even in my feelings. I’ll let it go, I’ll let you be… But I’ll also mute you lovingly. [CHORUS] I’m emotionally intelligent… and still petty sometimes, I can heal and still hit you with a ā€œthat’s fine.ā€ I don’t crash out, I just exit with grace— And leave you thinking ’bout me for days. I’m emotionally intelligent… and still petty sometimes, I got love in my heart and receipts in my mind. I’m the grown one, but don’t get it confused— I’m peaceful, not played. I got rules. [BRIDGE – half-time, playful] I’m not mean… I’m just aware. I’m not bitter… I’m just prepared. I don’t do revenge, I do distance— And that hurts more with consistency. [FINAL CHORUS – big + chanty] I’m emotionally intelligent… and still petty sometimes (still petty!) I can heal and still hit you with a ā€œthat’s fine.ā€ (that’s fine!) I don’t crash out, I just exit with grace— And leave you thinking ’bout me for days. I’m emotionally intelligent… and still petty sometimes, I got love in my heart and receipts in my mind. I’m the grown one, but don’t get it confused— I’m peaceful, not played. I got rules. [OUTRO – spoken] Anyway… I’m gonna go be mature somewhere else.
