Superstitious
Enuff Z'Nuff Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Seen you in the underground
A loser to your game
The people that you hung around
Have led you all astray

So don't be superstitious
This is your lucky day
There's a brand new situation
You're the one that's here to stay

Seems you didn't have the grind
To get you through the line
But now you're stuck in overdrive
And all you need is time

So don't be superstitious
This is your lucky day
There's a brand new situation
You're the one that's here to stay

When all you want is drugs and money
Nothing can come quick enough
Everything in this world is funny
You've got to bear it all
Hold on and be tough

Seen you in the underground
A loser to your game




But now I think you'll stick around
And everyone will know your name

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Enuff Z'Nuff's "Superstitious" are about a person who used to be a "loser" in the underground scene but has now made it through and is the "one that's here to stay." The singer encourages the singer to not be "superstitious" and to see this as their lucky day because they now have a brand new situation. They lacked the "grind" to get through the line and were stuck in "overdrive" but all they need is time. The chorus repeats the idea of this being a lucky day and a chance for a new start.


The second verse talks about how the singer used to only want drugs and money, but now they have to hold on and be tough. The singer once again mentions that they used to be a "loser" in the underground scene, but now they believe that the singer will "stick around" and be known by everyone.
