Chloe x Halle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
(Ooh, ooh) Don't ever ask for permission
(Ooh, ooh) Ask for forgiveness
In the Chloe x Halle's song Intro, the opening lines "ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh" are a part of the instrumental introduction to the song. The lines do not have any specified meaning, but rather serve as a sound effect that pairs well with the rising synth melody that follows. The next two lines "Don't ever ask for permission, ask for forgiveness" are the lyrics of the first verse. It seems to be a motivational message, encouraging listeners to go confidently in their pursuits and not wait for permission from others to chase their dreams. The line "ask for forgiveness" suggests that it is better to take risks and ask for forgiveness if needed, rather than being hesitant to take action because of fear of rejection or failure. This can be interpreted as a reminder to be bold and take risks when seeking success in life.
The song is an introspective look at the inner feelings and thoughts of the artist at various points in their lives. The mellow and soothing tune paired with the lyrics suggest that the message that the song is trying to convey is one of hope and empowerment. The phrase "Don't ever ask for permission, ask for forgiveness" appears to be the central theme and a message that is repeated throughout the song. This could be interpreted as the artist's personal belief and advice for their listeners to be brave, take risks and not be afraid to make mistakes.
