Da Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But boy you better listen close.
People gonna tell you lies,
Don't let it come as a surprise.
That woman's on my back again,
I know she's got the best intentions.
When you begin to realize,
And there's something that I want to say,
I love her, too.
And all of this has got nothing to do with you.
And I'd like to stay but I can't because
I've been fooling around and I know
That you called because you never even knew
That it was hurting me.
When you put it on the other hand,
When you're old enough to understand.
That glove will bring it all to life,
I didn't say that made it right.
Because that woman's on my back again,
I know she's got the best intentions.
When you begin to realize,
You know you got your daddy's eyes.
[Repeat Chorus]
And sometimes people get tired,
And I woke up a little too late to lie.
Dreams should last a long time,
This is not what I'd call goodbye.
[Chorus x2]
I love her, too.
The lyrics to Da's song "The Killer" are open to interpretation, but they seem to be about a man who is caught between a woman who is "on his back" and his love for someone else. He is warning the listener to not believe everything they hear, and that he loves the other woman despite what it may look like. He acknowledges that he has been unfaithful and hurting, but he wants to make it clear that it is not the fault of the other woman.
The chorus emphasises his love for both women, but he knows he cannot stay and continue to hurt them both. He admits that he has been fooling around and has woken up too late to lie, indicating a sense of remorse for his actions. The song ends on a somewhat hopeful note, with the line "Dreams should last a long time, this is not what I'd call goodbye," suggesting that he hopes to make amends and move on from his mistakes.
Overall, "The Killer" is a complex and layered song about love, infidelity, and the consequences of our actions.
