Destiny. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Be in my feelings when we speak
We always rollin'
Yeah, we always so weak
What's happening to me?
Is this forever or you're just playing' with me?
I lay my head on my pillow
You got me blushing at my phone
Lord, please give me a sign
I hope this boy is all mine

You're always on my mind
When you come around, I get shy
When I see you
When I see you

Boy, you know that you're so damn fine
How you trade in quarter for a dime?
Boy, I need you
Boy, I need you

Speak your feelings like your name is Oprah
I can make your legs shake even when I'm sober
Let's stick to each other till we grow older
I know your body like I'm working that controller
I like making your breakfast using that toaster
It's been a long day, sit back and relax
And let me message your shoulders
I know this world is getting cold and it's only getting colder
But I'm the type of nigga that's gone be there for you
And make you warmer
I like exactly how you is, baby
Hold your composure
You sent me a text sayin' you wanna come over
Going through it but we gone thug it out, 'cause we some soldiers
Let's live our life to the fullest, 'cause we not getting younger
It's like, I want you
(Oo, mhm)
I want you
(Mhm, mhm)
I want you
(Mhm, mhm)
I want you
(Mhm, mhm)

I wanted you
I needed you
I trusted you
How could you?
How could you?

I wanted you
I needed you
I trusted you




How could you?
How could you?

In the first verse, the singer is expressing their emotional vulnerability when they are around the person they are speaking to. They feel weak and unsure about the nature of their relationship. They question if their connection is genuine or if the other person is just playing with their emotions.

They pray for a sign and hope that this person will be exclusively theirs.


In the chorus, the singer admits that this person is constantly on their mind. They feel shy and nervous when they are around them. They acknowledge the person's attractiveness and express their need for them.

The singer is familiar with the other person's body, using a metaphor of controlling a video game console.

This makes me emotional on more than one level.
The music, first of all. Absolutely beautiful.
I remember back when this montage came out, in Destiny's Hay day. And that's where this montage really gets me.
Gearing up with the boys for Trials, or the Crota raid.
It's so nostalgic. Considering I made so many friends on that silly little game, life long friends, I'm so happy that the community surrounding this game was as amazing as it was, and still is.
The Destiny 2 community is just as good, but it lacks what D1 had. Somehow..
Either way, thank you TripleWreck
And thank you THANK YOU Bungie.
You made the happiest years of my life.
