(Contradiction)
We meet again good friend
You see the stars come down to meet you
You look like the last time
Let a new day come and greet you
Stuck in your ways, stuck in your mind, stuck all the time
When their out of the room, especially mine, used to be fine
I swear I was confused, used to be blind
That was a moment in time when I thought of you
Now I'm on mine
So say hey to everybody
Yo, tell 'em I love 'em, it's good this side of the globe
Is everything like it should? Man I don't know
But for everyone that think they should go
If you say that it's over
(Oh Lord, oh Lord)
If you say that it's over, I won't die
If you say that it's over, I won't die
I'll just come back for more
We'll meet again for sure
If you say that it's over, I won't die
We meet again, old friend
Look how they got you where they want you
No need to play pretend
You try so hard but it still haunts you
All in your face, all of the time
Running from everything
Run out of faith, now you are blind
It's such a shame it's a
Terrible waste, beautiful mind
That was a moment in time when I thought of you, now I am fine
No matter what you say
If you say that it's over, I won't die
(I won't die, I won't die, no, no)
If you say that it's over, I won't die
(I won't die, I won't die)
I'll just come back for more (Aw yeah)
We'll meet again for sure
If you say that it's over, I won't die
(I won't die)
You don't have to say it's over
You don't have to say it's through
You don't have to say it's time
Just goes back to you, yeah, just goes back to you
You don't have to say you lost
You should tell the truth
Everything you do in time
Just goes back to you, yeah, just goes back to you
If you say that it's over, I won't die
If you say that it's over, I won't die
I'll just come back for more
We'll meet again for sure
If you say that it's over, I won't die
The song Contradiction by Mali Music is a powerful message about perseverance and resilience in the face of hardship. The lyrics are written in a conversational tone, as if Mali is speaking directly to a friend who is struggling. The first verse sets the stage by acknowledging the friend's stuck-in-a-rut mentality, while also asserting Mali's own independence in moving on. He sends well-wishes to everyone before addressing the friend directly and reminding them that they don't have to accept defeat - they can choose to fight another day. The chorus repeats the phrase "If you say that it's over, I won't die" as a mantra to inspire hope and strength.
In the second verse, Mali takes a more empathetic approach, calling the friend "old friend" and acknowledging that they are trying their best. He recognizes the friend's struggle to escape the past and move forward. However, he reminds them that giving up is a "terrible waste" and encourages them to keep going. The bridge puts the focus back on personal responsibility, emphasizing that our actions have consequences and ultimately come back to us.
Overall, the song is an uplifting and empowering message to anyone going through a tough time. It acknowledges that life can be difficult and painful, but encourages us to keep pushing forward and never give up hope.

on Deep Blood Red
I believe The love Mail is referring to is his love for God. The deep blood Red is matching the blood sacrificed for him. Wanting to be God’s favorite. To show his emotions and how he feels. For years people thought Bebe & Cece’s love song was to each other but it was to God and they are siblings.
