Umbrella
Rihanna Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Uh huh, uh huh (Good Girl Gone Bad)
Uh huh, uh huh (take three, action)
Uh huh, uh huh (Hov)
No clouds in my stones
Let it rain, I hydroplane in the bank
Comin' down like the Dow Jones
When the clouds come, we gone
We Roc-A-Fella
We fly higher than weather
In G5's or better
You know me (you know me)
In anticipation for precipitation stack chips for the rainy day
Jay, Rain Man is back
With Little Ms. Sunshine, Rihanna, where you at?
You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
Maybe in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Baby, 'cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out to the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh-eh
These fancy things will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for infinity
When the war has took its part
When the world has dealt its cards
If the hand is hard
Together we'll mend your heart
Because
When the sun shines, we shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out to the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh-eh
You can run into my arms
It's okay, don't be alarmed
Come into me (there's no distance in between our love)
So gon' and let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because
When the sun shines, we shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out to the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, ella, ella, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh-eh
It's raining, raining
Ooh, baby, it's raining, raining
Baby, come into me
Come into me
It's raining, raining
Ooh, baby, it's raining, raining
You can always come into me
Come into me
It's pouring rain
It's pouring rain
Come into me
Come into me
It's pouring rain
It's pouring rain, come into me
Rihanna's song "Umbrella" is a metaphorical tale about standing by someone's side through thick and thin, regardless of the situation. The verses are a reflection of her own life, being a successful artist and facing challenges along the way. She compares her relationship to her partner to an umbrella - a symbol of protection and support. Rihanna and Jay-Z's verses are a proclamation of their strength and success as artists with lyrics describing their wealth and power. However, despite all the success and riches, the chorus emphasizes the importance of staying united through all kinds of weather conditions. The wordplay on "umbrella" which forms the main hook of the song is used as a metaphor for the relationship’s resilience and the need to support each other.
Moreover, the song's structure is very intriguing with a catchy melody and a catchy hook. The echo effect used in the verses amplifies the message of their resolve and the harmonies in the chorus highlight the unity and solidarity. The bridge, which is Jay-Z's final verse, adds a layer of vulnerability to the song by emphasizing that all the riches do not matter without the relationship’s support.
Overall, "Umbrella" is a pop sensation that showcases Rihanna's storytelling abilities and unique vocal talent. It also talks about the significance of standing together through hardships, especially in the tumultuous world of showbiz.
