Maybe you should ask him words instead. He likes that too.
Even if his girl keeps pestering him with questions of what’s on the agenda, Bino’s still going to love her. Her anticipation will probably keep him on his toes and ambitious, which would drive anyone crazy.

Banks doesn’t see herself coming around to a stable position where a relationship would potentially work. Instead, she’ll probably head in the opposite direction and be even more unstable or lost than she is right now.
Again ending the verse on a series of hypothetical questions, Banks gives her man a clue of what the deal is while questioning his ability to separate from her. Anything less than separation is imprisonment, as is noted by the context of the phrase “let me out” as Banks seeks freedom and independence.

The implications of being “too young” for this relationship point to either being naive or immature.
However, it may be the latter, as the second line further implies that Banks has had some rough experiences in relationships. She’s sturdier at heart now than ever, as bricks are known to be structurally firm and strong.
A paradox is presented, however, as Banks built a foundation without care (i.e. probably not very strong) and out of crumbs, or tiny little remnants of what once was. The crumbs could refer to her past experiences.

Like on “How About Now”, Drizzy incorporates recordings of females to further the narrative of the track.
The hook sees Drake exploiting the indecency of this girl’s previous partner, but throughout the hook and up to this point, the girl is questioning Drake. She functions as a conscience (albeit with a rather seductive tone), inquiring about his future, reputation, and current choices, whereas Drake displays his disregard for all of those things.
This all embodies the song’s title, “Heat of the Moment”, which essentially equates to Drizzy living in the present over the past or future.
Sounds like Nicki Minaj on the Interlude
