Cross Me Lyrics
Anything she needs, she can call me
Don't worry 'bout her, that's my seed, yup, that's all me
Just know, if you cross her, then you cross me
Cross me, cross me, if you, if you, if you, if you
It's FRED again
Anything she needs, she can call me
Don't worry about her, that's my seed, yup, that's all me
Just know, if you cross her, then you cross me
Cross me, cross me, if you, if
And she ain't messin' with no other man
And me and her have something different
I really need all you to understand
That nobody's comin' close
And I don't ever wanna run around
I spent my youth jumpin' in and out
You know I fuckin' love her now
Like nobody ever could
And you know I stay trippin', am I crazy? Oh, no
I'm stickin' with my baby, for sure
Together, or solo
It doesn't matter where we are, oh no, no
So, if you hear about my lady, just know
That she ain't the one to play with, oh no
And I'll be standin' so close
So you know that, ayy
Anything she needs, she can call me
Don't worry about her, that's my seed, yup, that's all me
Just know, if you cross her, then you cross me
Cross me, cross me, if you, if you, if you, if you
If you cross her, then you cross me (Cross me)
And nobody's comin' close, yeah
And I think that you should know that
If you cross her
(Anything she needs, she can call me)
Then you cross me
(Don't worry about her, that's my seed, yup, that's all me)
So come on, and let it go
Oh, I think that you should know
That she ain't messin' with no other man
Now, what you not gon' do
Is stand there, crouched for me, like you got kung-fu
Death stare, cross-armed, runnin' your mouth like a faucet
But you don't know that my girl been doin' CrossFit
Pew, kung pow, hit your ass with a cross kick
Pulling air out, wear you out, you exhausted
Know she gonna slide anytime you bitches talk shit
Keep a lil' blade in her fuckin' lip gloss kit, ayy
No one say "Hi" to me without her
Better pay your respect to the queen
Better do that shit without a flirt
Gotta respect the HBIC
Couple of things that you need to know
If you still wanna be friends with me
Just know if you cross her, then you cross me
Cross me, cross me, if you, if you, if you, if you
If you cross her
(Anything she needs, she can call me)
Then you cross me
(Don't worry about her, that's my seed, yup, that's all me)
And nobody's comin' close, yeah
And I think that you should know that
If you cross her
(Anything she needs, she can call me)
Then you cross me
(Don't worry about her, that's my seed, yup, that's all me)
So come on, and let it go
Oh, I think that you should know
She stay trippin', and she crazy, oh no
Quit messin' with my baby, for sure
Together, or solo
It doesn't matter where we are, oh no, no
So if you hear about my lady, just know
That she ain't the one to play with, oh no
And I'll be standin' so close
So you know that
If you cross her
(Anything she needs, she can call me)
Then you cross me
(Don't worry about her, that's my seed, yup, that's all me)
And nobody's comin' close, yeah
And I think that you should know that
If you cross her
(Anything she needs, she can call me)
Then you cross me
(Don't worry about her, that's my seed, yup, that's all me)
So come on, and let it go
Oh, I think that you should know
If you cross her
Anything she needs, she can call me
Then you cross me
Don't worry about her, that's my seed, yup, that's all me
Just know, if you cross her, then you cross me
Cross me, cross me, if you, if you, if you, if you
Oh yeah
Meaning of Cross Me
“Cross Me” by Ed Sheeran is a gloriously assertive declaration of devotion and a pointed warning to anyone foolish enough to challenge the woman at his center. The core theme revolves around fiercely protective love, presented with an almost aggressively confident swagger that’s characteristic of Sheeran's recent work. Initially, the lyrics establish a comfortable dynamic – she’s the one he turns to for anything, and her importance is underscored by the repeated assertion “that’s my seed, yup, that’s all me.” This establishes him as completely invested and prioritizing her needs above all else. However, the song quickly pivots into a defense of their relationship and a clear message: disrespecting her is tantamount to disrespecting him. The increasingly vivid imagery – the CrossFit training, the “blade in her lip gloss kit,” the intimidating presence – isn’t just hyperbole; it's a carefully constructed portrayal of a woman who commands respect and brooks no interference. Sheeran isn’t simply expressing love; he’s establishing boundaries with brutal clarity.
The repetition of "Cross me" acts as a rhythmic anchor, driving home this central warning. The underlying story is one of unwavering loyalty and a desire for singular focus – “I don't ever wanna run around,” he insists, revealing a past marked by instability that now fuels his commitment. Ultimately, the song’s success lies in its raw emotional honesty combined with a playfully defiant attitude. Sheeran isn’t shy about showcasing his adoration and asserting his control within it, creating a compelling portrait of a man utterly captivated and determined to shield his prize from any potential threat – a sentiment delivered with Fred again's signature electronic production adding an energetic undercurrent to the assertive lyrics.
