Let Go
Glover Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Shut your mouth, I don't wanna hear you say
Another excuse, same shit, different day
Just know you are digging your own grave
I will never look at you the same way
I hope I can forget the fire you lit inside my soul
And let go of the fantasy I was living in, oh
I hope that you are happy with your ounce of control
Come face to face with the consequence of the dice that you roll
I'm gonna let go of your love
I'm gonna let go of never being good enough
I'm gonna let go, oh oh oh
Gonna let go
Gonna watch you go
I thought that you were someone different
After all first, you were my friend
Can a sinner ever really repent
Everything you've done just comes into question
I hope I can forget the fire you lit inside my soul
And let go of the fantasy I was living in, oh
I hope that you are happy with your ounce of control
Come face to face with the consequence of the dice that you roll
I'm gonna let go of your love
I'm gonna let go of never being good enough
I'm gonna let go, oh oh oh
Gonna let go
Gonna watch you go
Hey hey, are you happy yet
Hey hey, or filled regret
Hey hey, are you happy yet
Or filled with regret
Are you happy yet
Hey
Hey
I hope I can forget the fire you lit inside my soul
And let go of the fantasy I was living in, oh
I hope that you are happy with your ounce of control
Come face to face with the consequence of the dice that you roll
I'm gonna let go of your love
I'm gonna let go of never being good enough
I'm gonna let go, oh oh oh




Gonna let go
Gonna watch you go

Overall Meaning

In the song "Let Go," Glover expresses his frustration and disappointment towards someone who continually makes excuses and fails to take responsibility for their actions. He is tired of listening to their empty justifications, as they consistently repeat the same pattern day after day. By doing so, this person is ultimately causing their own downfall, and Glover acknowledges that their actions have irreversibly changed the way he sees them.


The lyrics indicate that Glover wants to move on from the intense emotions this person ignited within him. He refers to the fire they lit inside his soul, implying that their presence affected him deeply. He had been living in a fantasy world, perhaps idolizing or having high expectations for this person, but he realizes now that it was not a healthy mindset. Glover hopes that this person finds happiness in their need for control, yet he wants them to face the consequences of their actions, much like rolling the dice in a game.


Glover decides it is time to let go of this person's love and the feelings of never being good enough for them. It seems that he invested a lot of himself into this relationship, hoping for something more, but he now understands that it is futile to hold onto someone who doesn't value or appreciate him. He chooses to let go, to move on, and to watch this person leave his life.


The repetition of the lines "Hey hey, are you happy yet? Hey hey, or filled with regret?" indicates Glover's curiosity about the other person's emotional state. He questions whether they have found happiness in their actions or if they are burdened by regret. Perhaps he wants them to take a moment to reflect on the consequences of their behavior and the impact it has had on others.


Overall, "Let Go" explores themes of disappointment, self-realization, and moving on from toxic relationships. Glover emphasizes the importance of taking responsibility for one's actions and facing the consequences that arise from them. Ultimately, he finds strength in letting go of someone who no longer serves a positive purpose in his life.
