It’s been such a long time
Since I set foot in the club
I really hate this shit, don’t I?
I hate feeling rushed, girl, can I just be honest?
I don’t feel like talkin’ unless it’s ’bout me, or philosophy
Can we just get down to business?
And when we’re both finished, then we’ll have a reason to speak
Then you can open up to me, girl
Let me plant my seed, girl
Let me fill your needs, girl
Open up to me, open up to me
The piano that I fuck you on
Same one that on which I write these songs for you
They’re one in the same
That goes for us, too, I’d give you my name
The bed on which I lay to sleep
And lay with you and lay in deep
There ain’t no difference, this case there isn’t
That goes for us, too, I know you’re listenin’
Sometimes it feels like I don’t really care
One day you’ll see, but in the meantime
Just trust that I’m there
Just trust that I love you
Just trust that I care
Trust that I need you to always be there
Trust that you know me well enough to know
I’m the high priest but you put on the show
Then you can open up to me, girl
Let me plant my seed, girl
Let me fill your needs, girl
Open up to me, open up to me
It’s been such a long time
Since I set foot in the club
Intimacy and Vulnerability in “OPEN UP”
“OPEN UP” by Caesar, Daniel explores the delicate balance between emotional honesty and physical intimacy. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who feels out of place in social environments, longing for genuine connection rather than shallow conversation. The repeated invitation to “open up” speaks to a desire for deeper vulnerability and trust within a relationship. Caesar, Daniel uses rich metaphors—like the piano that serves as both a tool for creation and a setting for intimacy—to highlight how personal and artistic worlds intertwine. The song’s introspective tone, paired with expressions of love and assurance, makes it resonate with listeners seeking authenticity and sincerity in love.
