Meant to Be
Ali Caldwell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
oh na na na na na na na
they say
you should never pass up on your love of tomorrow
by giving up the love you have today
its the little things
that satisfy us anyway
so you hit gotta complicate a thing
every time we try to change things
rearrange things
we always end up with the same thing
thats why were here together
cus we finally see that
we cant change
whats destined to be
whats meant to be
it will be
no we ain't gotta force it
i know that you were made for me
fates the controller
i just in you
you believe in me
boy you make this easy
whats meant to be it will
whats meant to be it will be
in time you'll see
(whats meant to be it will be)
you
me
are we
you were made just fo me
we could try to pretend
this ain't got happen no
if the ship goes down
I'm the music playing for the captain
yeah
we got a love that eternity is jealous of
above anything that try to tare us up
there's no question of will i
the answer is will you realize
we are destined to be
oh no no i
can not hide this feeling that i have inside
i said if i could
i would
lord knows i tried
and if its real than you cant let
it go by (ah ah ah ah)
The lyrics to Ali Caldwell's song "Meant to Be" convey a message about the inevitability and power of destiny in matters of love.

The singer asserts a commitment to staying and not complicating things in the relationship, indicating a sense of dedication and loyalty.
As the song progresses, the lyrics touch upon the recurring theme of attempting to change or manipulate situations, only to realize that some things are destined and unchangeable. The idea of fate and destiny being the ultimate guiding forces in a relationship becomes prominent, with the acknowledgment that what is truly meant to be will come to pass without force or coercion.
The repetition of the phrase "what's meant to be, it will be" underscores the conviction that certain connections and relationships are preordained and will naturally unfold as they are supposed to. There is a sense of ease and natural flow in the dynamic between the singer and their partner, with a mutual belief in each other and the journey they are on together.
In the final verses, there is a recognition of the depth of the love shared between the singer and their partner, expressed through metaphors like being the music playing for the captain on a sinking ship. The enduring nature of their love is highlighted, surpassing any challenges or doubts that may arise. The plea to not let go of a genuine and real connection amplifies the message of embracing and honoring what is destined to be. The song captures a sense of surrender to fate and the reassurance that true love will prevail in the end.
