about

The creation of "TOXIC" was a cathartic journey that delved into the depths of a toxic relationship, weaving a melodic tapestry of emotions and experiences. The song was composed by ManuhIsme, who drew from personal encounters and universal themes of love gone awry.

The songwriting process began with ManuhIsMe poignant lyrics, which poetically captured the tumultuous essence of a toxic relationship. Drawing from his own experiences and empathetic understanding, ManuhIsMe crafted verses that resonated with the pain, longing, and conflict often present in such situations. The chorus emerged as a powerful refrain, capturing the paradoxical allure and danger of the relationship – a blend of emotions that many listeners could relate to.

lyrics

VERSE 1,

Do you really love me?
Do you really want me?
That is all you ask me, aye,
Ignoring, all I do ignore her,
Same time she ignores me, aye,
We fighting, everyday we fighting,
This is just exhausting, aye,

Cause we've been down this road for a while,
We break up to make up every time,
That's our love shawty you and I, aye,
I love and I hate you the same time,
I can't never leave you cause you mine, aye, aye,

BRIDGE,

You see your love, your love, your love,
Is the only thing I want, I want, I want,
Same time this love, this love, this love,
Is draining me too much, too much, too much,

HOOK,

We toxic, for each other toxic,
You and I we toxic, aye,
We toxic, for each other toxic,
You and I we toxic, aye,

VERSE 2,

Make it make sense,
Will you leave or stay here,
We can make this work babe, aye,

It feels lonely,
Even though you with me,
Sometimes I just wanna leave, here,

BRIDGE,

Same time this love, this love, this love,
Is the only thing I want, I want, I want,
Some times this love, this love, this love,
Is draining me too much, too much, too much,

HOOK,

We toxic, for each other toxic,
You and I we toxic, aye,
We toxic, for each other toxic,
You and I we toxic, aye,

We toxic, for each other toxic,
You and I we toxic, aye,
We toxic, for each other toxic,
You and I we toxic, aye,

End.
