let you go
Сhase and Status Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You say
We can't go on this way
Things have got to change
When your gone
And each day
A choice gets made
You think it's yours to make
But your wrong

There's nowhere to run
No place you can go
Nowhere you can hide
Where you won't be found
There's no place on earth
Where you could lay low
Wherever you are
I will track you down
There's no way in hell
I will let you leave
Let you just get up
And walk out on me
There's no way on earth
Hell would have to freeze
More than twice before
I will let you go!

Let you go!

I will let you go!

There's no way on earth
Hell would have to freeze
More than twice before
I will let you go

Let you go

You say
We can't go on this way
Things have got to change
When your gone
And each day
A choice gets made
You think it's yours to make
But your wrong

There's nowhere to run
No place you can go
Nowhere you can hide
Where you won't be found
There's no place on earth
Where you could lay low
Wherever you are
I will track you down
There's no way in hell
I will let you leave
Let you just get up
And walk out on me
There's no way on earth
Hell would have to freeze
More than twice before
I will let you go!

There's no way
I will let you go!

Let you go!

I will let you go!

There's no way on earth
Hell would have to freeze
More than twice before
I will let you go!





Let you go!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Сhase and Status's song Let you go speak volumes about the insecurities and fears experienced in relationships. The singer addresses their partner, expressing that things in their relationship need to change because it's unsustainable as it stands. The partner seems to be under the impression that they have control over what happens next, but the singer disagrees. They state that there is nowhere to run and nowhere to hide, no matter where the partner may go, they will be found. The chorus serves as an ultimatum where the singer emphasizes that no matter what happens, they will not let their partner go. Even if hell freezes over twice, the singer will not allow the partner to leave.


The song could be interpreted not just as a song about a troubled relationship but also about the toxic nature of possessiveness and not allowing a partner to have the freedom to leave if they wish to. It could showcase a very volatile relationship where one partner holds all the power and control.

10 years on and both the song and the video are as applicable as ever, Chase and Status ahead of their time

It was just as relevant at the time. It sinply shows that we're the stag-nation.
