Mine
Bebe Rexha Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now you wanna be my lover
Like you've never seen in colour
Yeah, I get off when I see that you're in pain
Want that high top or the mountain
Dipping in the holy fountain
You don't want love unless it's mine
Yeah, you want me all out your mind
You don't want love unless it's mine
It don't feel right unless it's mine
24 hours on your mind
Now you want it all the time
You don't want love unless it's mine
It don't feel right unless it's mine
24 hours on your mind
Now you want it all the time
You don't want love unless it's
Look at you, looking up, down on your knees
Treading in the sacred waters
Waiting 'till the high gets stronger
Yeah, yeah, I'll keep begging begging, ooh
I'm your fetish, ooh
Come and get it, ooh
You don't want love unless it's mine
Now you want it all the time
Yeah, you want me all out your mind
You don't want love unless it's mine
It don't feel right unless it's mine
24 hours on your mind
Now you want it all the time
You don't want love unless it's mine
It don't feel right unless it's mine
24 hours on your mind
Now you want it all the time
You don't want love unless it's mine
I'll keep begging begging, ooh
I'm your fetish, ooh
Come and get it, ooh
You don't want love unless it's mine
It don't feel right unless it's mine
24 hours on your mind
Now you want it all the time
You don't want love unless it's mine
It don't feel right unless it's mine
24 hours on your mind
Now you want it all the time
You don't want love unless it's mine
In "Mine," Bebe Rexha describes a one-night stand that quickly turns into a passionate obsession. The lyrics suggest that the singer is in control, asserting dominance over their lover, who craves their attention and affection. The line "Turn a boy into a man in just one night" suggests that the singer has the power to transform and shape their partner’s identity, as well as their desires. The phrase "I get off when I see that you're in pain" hints at the dark and somewhat sadistic nature of their relationship, as the singer derives pleasure from their partner's suffering.
The chorus emphasizes the singer's ownership over their lover, as they sing "You don't want love unless it's mine...It don't feel right unless it's mine...Now you want it all the time." The lover is depicted as being entirely consumed by their desire for the singer, who is portrayed as their fetish and their addiction. The use of religious imagery, such as "dipping in the holy fountain" and "sacred waters," suggests an almost reverent worship of the singer, who is the object of the lover's devotion.
Overall, "Mine" is a song about power dynamics and the dark, obsessive nature of love. The lyrics suggest that the singer has complete control over their lover and that their love is more like an addiction than a healthy, reciprocal relationship.
