Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah
Sometimes, i just wanna fly away.
They say i can't.
I can't skate, i can't surf. I ain't from the streets the beach is my turf.
I can't sing, wish i could write the words but i can't think i'm addicted off the herbs.
I can't remember the last time i seen ya. I hope it went well cause i can be a piece of work.
I can't promise if i be a jerk. I think i get it from my momma.
Imma...

I wanna do better at least let me try. I wanna be your new sweater when the Summer dies. I wanna fly and you can be my Lois Lane. When they tell me i can't, i tell them I can.
I can be a love that fills ya. I can be a drug that heals ya. I may not be superhuman but i can be your superhero. i ca- i could be your superhero. I ca- i could be your superhero. I may not be superhuman but i can be your superhero. Hero.
I can't type. i can't dance. I can't fight unless you messin' with my fam'.

I can't lose but it's like i can't win when you lookin at me starin like i did it again.
I can't remember the last time i seen ya. I hope it went well but i'm a believer. I can't promise i won't leave in the caddy. I peace when it's tough i think i get it from my daddy.
I wanna do better at least let me try. I wanna be your new sweater when the Summer dies. I wanna fly and you can be my Lois Lane. When they tell me i can't, i tell them I can.
I can be a love that fills ya. I can be a drug that heals ya. I may not be superhuman but i can be your superhero. i ca- i could be your superhero. I ca- i could be your superhero. I may not be superhuman but i can be your superhero. Hero.
Super duper chick and she super super hip. Super duper chick and she super super hip. A super duper chick and she super duper hip. She the villian and i'm feelin', killin me with her lips.
I wanna do better at least let me try. I wanna be your new sweater when the Summer dies. I wanna fly and you can be my Lois Lane. When they tell me i can't, i tell them I can.

I can be a love that fills ya. I can be a drug that heals ya. I may not be superhuman but i can be your superhero. i ca- i could be your superhero. I ca- i could be your superhero. I may not be superhuman but i can be your superhero. Hero.
Didn't know i was a super hero did ya girl?

Overall Meaning

The song "Superhero" by Aaron Smith is a song that talks about self-belief and the desire to be someone's hero. The first verse of the song speaks to the desire to get away from the pressures of daily life and to become something more. The singer talks about the things he can't do, like skate, surf or sing, but he's addicted to herbs, making him believe that he is nothing special. He can't even remember the last time he saw the person he is singing to, and he admits to being difficult.

However, in the chorus, the singer makes a promise to be better and to try harder. He wants to be the person that his love can depend on and be their superhero. He explains that he may not be superhuman, but he can still be their hero. The second verse is about the struggles he faces even after promising to be better. He states that he can't type, dance, or fight, but if someone messes with his family, he can. He admits to being a believer and a leaver, just like his parents.

Kid Cudi and Aaron smith are Very different, but that's what could make them fuckin' AMAZING together. They both know how to change it up and work with different styles (after all, they're both popular because how artistically different they are.) I think they could use it to their advantage.
