Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Hylan Starr's song "Fool" express the disbelief and frustration of the singer towards a man who has let go of a valuable and loving relationship. The repetition of the line "How a nigga have you and fuck that up" emphasizes the incredulity at the man's foolish mistake in losing the love of the girl. It highlights the singer's disbelief that someone could have something so special and still make such a detrimental choice to ruin it.


The lyrics suggest that the man must be a fool to let go of such a precious love. The singer questions how the man could have seen the girl, experienced her presence and love, and still choose to walk away from it. This emphasizes the idea that the man's actions were illogical and senseless, leading to his own downfall in losing a valuable connection with the girl.


Furthermore, the lyrics bring attention to the idea that the man's loss is someone else's gain. The singer mentions that the man is now an "ex" and has taken a loss, while someone else appreciates and values the girl's worth. This contrasts the man's foolish decision with the potential joy and fulfillment that another person could bring to the girl's life.


Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of regret and missed opportunity on the man's part. The singer expresses his readiness to treat the girl right and provide the love and care she deserves, contrasting with the foolish actions of the man who let her slip away. The repetition of the phrase "Nigga gotta be a fool" reinforces the central theme of the song, highlighting the irrationality and foolishness of the man's choices in losing a love that was valuable and deserving of appreciation.
