Show Love
Collie Buddz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

How dem go show everything
But them never show love
All eyes on you I know
You can′t cash in likes if you run out of luck
All eyes on you I know
Just don't believe everything you see there
If you want show everything show a little more love
The world could use it I know

I think we all just little bit desensitized to reality
From you go study others peoples lives
And not your own it breeds jealousy
When you wake up in the morning what you scrolling for
And you don′t like somebody's comment what you trolling for
And when you check it them go throw in some ads sponsorships
And push vanity
You can't go nowhere without somebody press record
Feels like we missing out on some of life′s real reward
Well if you wanna show everybody just how big′s your yard
Do your thing dog
Me nuh business
All I'm saying is

If go post everything post a little more love
All eyes on you I know
What your followers go do when you run out of luck
All eyes on you I know
Just don′t believe everything you see there
If you want show everything show a little more love
The world could use it I know

I love the idea everybody's life is reachable
But some youth them nowadays almost unteachable
′Cause what them want the fame and likes
But my fear is them go do some unspeakable
Things to get a little hype
Over night
Yeah that's all them want
Them think say a little hype
Ago make it right
And make them ting sell off

Don′t make the system trick you
No, no
Youth all I'm saying is
No make Babylon kick you
No, no
All I'm saying is

Dem go show everything
But them never show love
All eyes on you I know
You can′t cash in likes when you′re down on your luck
All eyes on you I know
Just don't believe everything you see there




If you want show everything show a little more love
The world could use it I know

Overall Meaning

Collie Buddz's song Show Love is a commentary on the culture of social media and the need for more genuine connection and love. The song highlights the way people showcase everything about themselves on social media except for love, which is what the world really needs. The chorus repeats the sentiment that people can't cash in likes for love when they are down on their luck. The lyrics also touch on the desensitization that can come from studying other people's lives on social media, as well as the jealousy and vanity that can arise from this behavior.


The verses delve further into these ideas, suggesting that the quest for fame and likes can lead people to do unspeakable things. Collie Buddz warns against getting caught up in this system, urging listeners not to let Babylon (meaning societal oppression and corruption) kick them down. Instead, he encourages listeners to show more love in their social media presence and in their lives in general.
