SUMMER
Byemilo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where's everyone off to?
The summers not over you
Is it cause of me again?
Is that why all my friends are leaving?
Say goodbye
Cause see you later is a lie
You gotta leave its time
Can i drop you off, is that fine
Don't leave
I still can't be me
Right now i'm nothing
But you treat me like something

Where did I go wrong?
Why was I not enough?
Will I ever feel love?
Remember me when you're...

Ella saved me from myself
I was all alone no one else
She told me I deserve the world
And I still don't believe it
Thank you and i'm sorry that i always disappoint
You're my best friend and I love you like a boy
Moving out in August scared of being unemployed
All these empty see you soon's filling up the void
Tell me something that I don't know
Hoping I can tell you all the things I can't show
I'ma be chasing dreams
But no ones gonna be proud of me for it
Life's so unfair now all my friends wont be around
Can we kick it fore I leave town?
If you're down, I'm down, I'm down
I'm not gonna go to school next year
And i got all this fear
Mama and Papa think that I'm a screw up
See me a fuck up and don't see I grew up
My nights end the same way I don't like
And people keep telling me what's right
Like, isn't this shit that's not gonna shine
When will you start thinking about you're life

We had bruises and bloody noses
Dirty finger nails held our roses
Counting flower pedals to see who loved us
Cause nobody does

Who are you to tell me what I mean
Who are you to tell me how to dream
Fuck these brown eyes and the shit they've seen
If my life was a movie then let's set the scene
14 I tried to take my life
But now i',m putting suicide to the side
17 it was do or die I said, fuck that man I'm too alive
Now I'm 18 gonna go and chase music
Everybody screaming at me don't, don't do it
Feeling hella paranoid driving to the sunset
Whip around to channel orange like I ain't lost yet
Scared of living on my own
Never had a sense of home
Feelings always come and go
So I never really know
Hope my mama still loves me
Cause night after, night after, night, I
Look in the mirror like, what have you done
Scared of disappointing people I love
My dreamers ready though, we gonna run
I spent a year thinking that I was done
Then Jeffrey showed me who the fuck I was
Hope I can be the one everyone loves
I'm trynna be a better friend
Man I hope I see mine again
Middle fingers for a fuck boy who ain't never gave a fuck
(Fuck 'em)
I ain't never need them give 'em hell
No I never wish them well
Save your 2 cents for the wishing well
Don't hit with I miss you's on my goddamn cell
Leave in the summer Ill be there when it thunder
I wonder If i'll ever be back

I wonder if i'll ever be back now
Where's everyone off to?
The summers not over you
Is it cause of me again?
Is that why all my friends

Where did I go wrong?
(Get up, summer's over)
Why was I not enough?
(Get up, thunderboy)
Will I ever feel love?
(Get up, and be something)
Remember me when you're gone
(Get up, because all your friends are coming)

Get up, don't leave
Get up, keep me
Get up, and don't forget me




Get up, when you're gone
When you're gone

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Byemilo's song "Summer" seem to describe the end of summertime, but also delve deeper into questions about self-worth, love, and relationships with friends and family. The opening lines express confusion and sadness as the singer realizes that their friends are leaving even though summer isn't over yet. The subsequent lines suggest that the singer feels responsible for their friends' departure, perhaps indicating a pattern of behavior or struggle with interpersonal relationships. The chorus alternates between pleading with someone not to leave and questioning one's own worthiness, symbolized by the line "Where did I go wrong? Why was I not enough? Will I ever feel love?"


The second verse introduces Ella, who is described as a source of support and encouragement for the singer. This verse also touches on themes of insecurity, fear, and disappointment with oneself, with references to a lack of parental approval and self-harm. However, the verse ends on a somewhat hopeful note as the singer expresses a desire to pursue a career in music despite others' reservations. The following lines continue to deal with the difficulty of leaving home or feeling like an outsider, but also express a determination to succeed and a belief in oneself. The final lines of the song seem to urge the listener to "get up" and keep moving forward, even when faced with challenges or loss.
