The lyrics of Jill Scott's song "Gimme" encapsulate a woman's desire to be desired physically and emotionally by her lover. The repeated use of the phrase "gimme, gimme, gimme" emphasizes this desire and the chorus serves as a plea to the lover to give her what she wants. The lines "if you want it in the morning, just call my name, if you want it in the evening, just do the same" suggest a willingness on the part of the singer to be available to her lover whenever he desires, and the line "let me sock it to ya" connotes a sexual intensity that is being promised. The singer is asking her lover to meet her sexual needs while also acknowledging her own power to provide pleasure to her partner.
Furthermore, the use of the word "real" in the line "make you feel like a real" adds a deeper dimension to the song, suggesting that the singer wants to be more than just a sexual object to her lover. She wants to be valued and respected as a person. The lines "give it to me high" and "daddy, what'cha gonna do?" also hint at a somewhat submissive relationship dynamic between the two, where the singer is asking her lover to fulfill her desires.
Overall, the lyrics of "Gimme" are a sexual declaration of desire from the singer to her lover, with an underlying desire for emotional connection and respect.
