Love is Blind
and now i see
and you know what
somebodys gonna do what you did 2 me

Verse 1
You took my heart
You threw it against the wall
And i sat here alone
Staring at the phone, but you dont call
Who do you think you're fooling?
Love aint a game to be played
My heart is empty
Like the promises you made
But now im getting stronger
And i dont need you any longer.

Chorus
It'll take time
Baby,wait and see
Somebody's gonna do
What you did to meee

It'll take time
Baby,wait and see

Somebody's gonna do
What you did to mee

ooohhh
ooohhh
ooohhh

(phone call)"Its my turn to have some fun, parties at my house tonight"

Verse 2
You think you're smart
Playing me all this time
But the game that you played
And the bed that you laid
Will haunt you in sweet time
Do you tell her all your stories?
Do you tell her all your lies?
Just like you told me,
Right before you said good-bye
But now im getting stronger
And i don't need you any longer.

Chorus
Repeat 2x

Overall Meaning

In Rockell's song What U Did 2 Me, the chorus of the song emphasizes that somebody is going to do the same thing to the person who broke Rockell's heart. The lyrics reflect heartbreak and the feeling of being abandoned after believing in someone. The first verse explains how the person who she had given her heart to, just threw it against the wall and left her standing there devastated, waiting for them to call, which they never did. She rejects the idea that love is a game to be played with, and continues to express how she doesn't need the person anymore, and how she is stronger now. The chorus repeats the message that someone is going to do this to them too, making the listeners wonder whether the character is expressing a desire for revenge, liberation or simply trying to express their heartache.

In the second verse, Rockell addresses the remorse felt by the person who broke her heart. However, it's too late, as the damage has been done. She emphasizes that the bed that they laid in and the games they played will catch up to them, and that the person might be telling the same stories and lies to others. The lyrics convince the listeners that the singer of the song has moved on and is moving forward in life, leaving the person who hurt her behind.

This song was dedicated to me by my ex-girlfriend when we were in high school. I remembered the song today and wanted to listen to it. It brought back memories and made me remember how badly I treated her.

Hi there I am trying to find out if you guys ever made and released an official music video for the song in a dream by Rockell? Or did you guys never make one when the song was released? I just can't find anything on YouTube which is why I ask.

@rnbsteenstar

There's some evidence that it may have been.

@kazior6521

I remember seeing a clip of the video on a BMG artist music site, way back in the day.

It's pretty clear that Rockell took the bulk of the proceeds from the success of her first album and poured them into silicon investments, which is a shame really, since she was perfectly attractive previously, without the two massive flotation devices that don't look the least bit natural.

The song's great though, and I actually like the second album better than the first.

@saltwatercb

+sphinxrising58 Um, no. I am a dude. The "c" in "saltwatercb" stands for Christopher. I was merely pointing out that she looked lovely as she was, before the surgery--there was no need to blow a bunch of money on some gargantuan breast implants that don't even look real. It just looks comical and expresses an unfortunate degree of insecurity. Rockell is a talented singer and songwriter; it's a shame that her self-esteem was so closely tied to the size of her (fake) breasts.

@saltwatercb

+sphinxrising58 Ultimately we are on the same page--at the end of the day the size doesn't matter, but I will gladly admit to considering super curvy Sofia Vergara as the ultimate female body (at least to my taste), but Sofia's the real deal. Big jugs of silicone in imitation of that look don't do anything for me, especially when they look as fake as Rockell's do in this video. I guess I just wish women would feel more confident enough about their own attributes to skip all the needless plastic surgery. Look at Kanye West's mother--she died on the table as a result of all her plastic surgery. Not that that's a common occurrence, but it does happen, and for what, so she could have "better" breasts and some lipo? BTW, you sound like an upstanding guy--I appreciated what you said about recognizing the heart inside. We certainly owe women that amount of sensitivity and insight. Rock on, friend!

@saltwatercb

+sphinxrising58 You speak the truth! I couldn't have put it any better.
Cheers! Christopher B.

@Menstral

Hysterical comment. Shallow=silicone=realtor

@joreellex

But what happened to her? She was damn good and her style was ahead of time already. But i guess age, became a mom and who knows?

@paulden3158

She became a realtor

And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:15)
The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD. (Psalms 14:1-4)
