Sundress – ASAP Rocky

Adjust to pain

It hurt too bad to say, to say you left me, left me

Fuckin’ with the wrong man

(Left me) Said she fuckin’ with the wrong man

Ever since she left me

I guess you fell into the wrong hands, yeah

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

And now you’re F-in’ with the wrong man, man

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

You took some time away from me (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

I see you made your mind (Ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

Just read the signs, it’s clear to see (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

I’m tryna make you mine (Ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

‘Cause love is blind, you’re hurt, it’s fine (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

To heal, it takes some time (Ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

I guess you fell into the wrong hands, yeah

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

And now you’re F-in’ with the wrong man, man

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Tokyo trips, shoppin’ sprees full of gifts

I remember we would dream about kids

Tryna get that V with that crib

Back when you used to be’s with that Crip

Gotta give a little to get

A little bit in return now, tables turn now

And you heard ’bout me and my bitch

I’m just tryna chill

‘Cause lately I’ve been thinkin’ ’bout you and rebuildin’

Walking ’round like you lost feelings

I can tell he not fulfilling

You in love with me still

They say only if looks could kill, for real

You walk around town with that guy

When you pass by (Ah-ah)

I just laugh like (Ah-ah)

I guess you fell into the wrong hands, yeah

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

And now you’re F-in’ with the wrong man, man

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Heartbreak in Hindsight

“Sundress” by ASAP Rocky delves into the aftermath of a failed relationship, exploring the lingering pain and the complexity of moving on. The song’s lyrics paint a vivid picture of loss and regret, with Rocky reflecting on his ex-partner’s choices and the emotional distance that has grown between them. The repetition of phrases like “wrong man” and references to past dreams underscore the theme of missed opportunities and longing for reconciliation.

Fragile Love and Reflection

Throughout the track, Rocky balances vulnerability with introspection. He acknowledges the need for healing and the reality that love is often blind to faults. Nostalgic memories—like shared dreams of a future together—contrast with the current reality of separation, highlighting the bittersweet nature of romantic reflection. The song’s melodic hooks and emotive delivery amplify the sense of yearning and unresolved feelings.
