Is That For Me
Alesso & Anitta Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Is that for me?

Oooh, come a little bit closer
Come and get a little piece of mine, yea
Let me, take over
Nothing wrong with feeling right
Oh no, don't be selfish
It's getting late look at the time
Been thinking 'bout it all day
What we gon' do about it tonight?

Up against the wall, up against the wall
No holding back now
No tapping out now
No turnin' back now
Catching feelings no, catching feelings no
Let's go away now
Savor the taste now
Wanna know now

Is that for me?
Is that for me?
Is that for me?

Oooh, lemme back up on it
Hold on we going for a ride, yea
'Ready know you want it
Know you wanna take all my time
But you can't be stingy
Gotta gimme gimme what I like
Been thinking 'bout it all day
What we gon' do tonight?

Up against the wall, up against the wall
No holding back now (oh no)
No tapping out now (oh no)
No turnin' back now
Catching feelings no, catching feelings no
Let's go away now
Savor the taste now
Wanna know now

Is that for me?
Is that for me?
Is that for me?

Is that for me?
Is that for me?
Is that for me?

Overall Meaning

The opening lines "Oooh, come a little bit closer, Come and get a little piece of mine, yea" invites the other person to get closer, insinuating a physical attraction. The lyrics then continue to express the desire for the moment and feeling to be savored, "Savor the taste now, Wanna know now."


There is also an element of apprehension in the song, with lines such as "Been thinking 'bout it all day, What we gon' do about it tonight?" and "Catching feelings no, catching feelings no," suggesting that the individuals are aware of the potential emotional consequences of pursuing a romantic relationship.

Para quem não entendeu:

Alesso: representa o europeu nas matas brasileiras. Nos livros de história geralmente são apresentados com roupas branca e vermelha, assim como os bandeirantes (Também responsáveis pela interiorização de parte do Brasil mata à dentro).

Anira: representa a comunidade nativa. As roupas extravagantes refletem as cores da Amazônia: o índio, a onça, cobras diversas, arara azul, os pássaros mais coloridos.

Sua roupa com as "panelas" nos seios refletem a extração do látex na floresta amazônica.

A dança contemporânea (sim, é uma coreografia) reflete a força dos povos, a ligação com a terra (por isso os figurantes dançam para a Terra em certos momentos).

A vestimenta de onça, quando no barco, também representa a onça-pintada - cobiçada e caçada pelos exploradores - na adaptação de sobreviver às áreas de várzea que alagam todos os anos.

A roupa noturna, com um cabelo ruivo enorme, representa a Caipora - uma entidade da mitologia Tupi!

Basicamente é isso. Nada está ali por acaso.
