Push
A-trak Feat Andrew Wyatt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let down, tonight i feel my courage breaking
I made a mess
Of easy stuff
I care too much
Don't care enough
I wrestle with my attitude
I'm tired of you
And it's a horrible thing to push, push, push, push love away
Yeah it's a horrible thing to push, push, push, push love away
(Baby, be with you)
Let down, i feel your disconnect emotion
Let down, you stand there cold
And proud like I'm not your man
And i feel trapped
And gave my word
Not to hang out
With other girls
I made you feel
Like I'm all yours
But i can't stop
Myself on tours
It's such a horrible thing to push, push, push, push love away
Yeah it's a horrible thing to push, push, push, push love away
(Baby, be with you)
It's such a horrible thing to push, push, push, push love away
Yeah it's a horrible thing to push, push, push, push love away
(Baby, be with you)
The lyrics to A-Trak ft. Andrew Wyatt's song "Push" are a reflection on the challenges and difficulties that can arise in romantic relationships. The repeated phrase "let down" suggests a feeling of disappointment or deflation, and the image of a light flickering off in the basement gives a sense of darkness, uncertainty, and instability. The singer seems to be struggling with feelings of anxiety and insecurity, describing his own tendency to "make a mess" and care too much, while also feeling frustrated with his partner ("You're mad at me/I'm tired of you").
The chorus, which is repeated several times throughout the song, speaks to the deep sense of regret and sadness that comes with pushing away love that could have been meaningful and fulfilling. The singer recognizes that it's a "horrible thing" to do, but seems powerless to stop himself from doing it. In the second verse, he describes feeling trapped by the commitments he's made to his partner, even as he continues to struggle with his own desires and impulses ("I made you feel/Like I'm all yours/But I can't stop/Myself on tours").
Overall, the lyrics to "Push" convey a sense of turmoil and confusion in the face of romantic love, particularly in the context of a relationship that may be experiencing a breakdown or disconnect. The repeated use of the phrase "horrible thing" underscores the gravity of these emotions, and suggests that the singer is struggling to come to terms with his own behavior and its impact on his relationships.
