Taking It Easy
Goodluck Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

look at us sitting here
waiting for the sun to disappear
there's nothing like the summer breeze
to take a load off you and me
we survive the madness
we made it through
now girl its only me and you
it's only me and you mmm
we taking it easy
we taking it easy
we taking it easy
we taking it easy(we taking it easy)
we'll take it easy
on our selves
don't gotta do nothing for nobody else
we'll give it time
and slow it down
even the city says it's chilling out
the times fly
our bodies go
we dazzled by the sun while we laying low
we taking it easy
we taking it easy
we taking it easy
we taking it easy(we taking it easy)
look at us
chilling here
waiting for them sun to disappear
there's nothing like
breathing in
taking the moment as it begins
the tide is high
the ocean blue
now boy there's only me and you
it's only me and you ohhh
we taking it easy
we taking it easy
we taking it easy
we taking it easy(we taking it easy)
we taking it easy(we taking it easy)
we taking it easy(we taking it easy)
we taking it easy(we taking it easy)
we taking it easy(we taking it easy)
we taking it easy
yeah we taking it easy
mmm we taking it easy
mmm we taking it
yeah we're taking it
mmm we taking it easy




mmm we taking it
yeah we're taking it(mmm we taking it easy)

Overall Meaning

The song "Taking It Easy" by Goodluck captures a moment of relaxation and ease in life after surviving the "madness" of the world. The lyrics describe waiting for the sun to set and feeling the summer breeze, allowing the weight of life to dissipate. The singers take pride in the fact that they do not have to do anything for anyone else, in this moment it is just the two of them alone. The urban environment seems to slow down and the singers are able to enjoy the moment fully. The sea provides an image of tranquility, and the two singers are now able to breathe and take in the present moment. The repeated refrain of "we taking it easy" emphasizes this need for mental and physical rest, while at the same time celebrating the moment with joy and energy.


The lyrics suggest a contrast between busy, hectic life, and a slower, more relaxed lifestyle. This contrast mirrors the mood of the music, which is mellow and chill. This song is about appreciating the beauty in simplicity, as well as the value of rest and relaxation in a world that can be stressful and tiring.

what do you find weird? we wanted to show a guy and girl who are just getting to know each other and head out on their first weekend away together... the awkwardness and the intensity of those first moments of getting together. Make sense now? :) hope so! glad you like the song!
