D.J.R.M. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And my heart is really lonely
Just thinkin 'bout you baby
Gots me twisted in the head
And I don't know how to take it
But its driving me so crazy
I don't know if its right
I'm tossin' turning in my bed
And I still can't sleep
Thinkin 'bout your beauty it makes me
Weep
I'm feeling hopeless in my heart
I don't know what to do I think I'm in love
Baby
Amor, no es amor (if this ain't love)
Than what am I feeling
What am I doing wrong
Amor, no es amor (if this ain't love)
Its just an illusion that I have in my heart
Now I know you're not my lady but I'm tryin' to make this right
I don't know what to do I'm going out of my mind
So baby if you let me kick it witchu
Then well maybe we could ride together we cud do it all night
We could do this all night now I don't care if you got a man
Baby I wish you'd understand
'Cause I know he can't love you right, quite like I can
Its five o'clock in the morning
And I still can't sleep
Thinkin' 'bout your beauty it makes me
Weep
I'm feeling hopeless in my heart
I don't know what to do I think I'm in love
I love the way you freak it like that
I love the way you freak it like that
I love the way you freak it like that
Its an obsession
Hold up let me dream
Shorty got me feelin' serene
Where my candy, where my cream
Got your boy feel less supreme
Hold up wait a minute baby you so damn independent
Loving everything your representing
Got a lot of money, I love to spend it
And that's what's up and I don't care what people scream
No I'm blessin' when I'm stressin'
My superfly beauty queen
I'm gonna keep it saucy
'Cause my ma know how I do, mi corazón belongs to you
Amor, no es amor (if this ain't love)
Than what am I feeling
What am I doing wrong
Amor, no es amor (if this ain't love)
Its just an illusion that I have in my heart
Amor
The lyrics to D.J.R.M.'s "Obsession" describe the singer's infatuation with a woman who he is not in a relationship with. He can't help but think about her constantly, even at five o'clock in the morning, tossing and turning in bed. He questions whether what he's feeling is love, and wonders if he's doing something wrong by being so obsessed with her. But despite not being her "lady," he still wants to make things right with her and hopes that they can "ride together" and be together all night. He's so obsessed with her that it becomes an "obsession."
Throughout the lyrics, there is a sense of desperation and confusion as the singer grapples with his emotions. He wants this woman so badly, but he also acknowledges that he may be living in an illusion rather than true love. Despite these doubts, however, he can't resist her allure and the way she "freaks it like that," and so his obsession continues.
Overall, "Obsession" is a classic tale of unrequited love and the tumultuous emotions that come with it. It explores the highs and lows of infatuation, and the way that it can make us question everything we thought we knew about ourselves and our desires.
