Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I told her im here for forever
They say we go perfect together
I feel like this ain′t even a no question
I feel like we perfect together
I feel like you hate all the distance
I know you hate when im tipsy thats why i stop drinking that liquor
But that's when you start acting different
Texting them niggas you say that you wouldn′t
Leaving me here when i say that you couldn't
Saw that shit coming im dodging them bullets
Gave you my all when i know that i shouldn't
But texting your phone like i hate and i miss you

Overall Meaning

The song "Want You Back" by Ajey is a heart-wrenching ballad about a failed relationship and the desperation of trying to win someone back. The singer is regretful and apologetic for mistakes he has made in the past, especially around drinking and communicating with other women. He recognizes that distance has been a struggle for his partner and despite his attempts to fix it, their relationship still fell apart. However, he still wants to try to make things work and pleads with her to give him another chance. He acknowledges that he could treat her better and promises to do so if given the opportunity.


The lyrics are straightforward and raw, but convey a universal feeling of loss and longing for someone who once had a significant impact on one's life. The song's emotional weight is amplified by Ajey's emotive vocal performance, especially during the chorus, where he passionately pleads for his former partner to come back into his life.
