Instinct
Izzamuzzic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I had sex with him for about a year and a half,
I liked having sex with him,
He wasn't afraid of experimenting,
I like men like that,
Men who give me pleasure (Quote from "Basic Instinct")
I'm letting go
A deeper dive
Alive
So lost




Were you only imaginary
You fade away.

Overall Meaning

At first glance, these lyrics from Izzamuzzic's song "Instinct" may seem straightforward - the singer details a sexual relationship with someone who was open to experimentation, and then reflects on the aftermath of that relationship. However, upon closer inspection, there are deeper themes hinted at within the words.


The repetition of phrases like "I liked having sex with him" and "I like men like that" may suggest a sense of detachment or objectification. The singer seems focused purely on sexual pleasure and may not be fully invested in emotional connection. This idea is emphasized later on with the words "Were you only imaginary / You fade away." It's possible that the relationship was never truly based on anything beyond physical desire, and the singer is now grappling with feelings of loneliness or emptiness in its wake.


The lines "A deeper dive / Alive / So lost" further underline this sense of searching for something more meaningful. The singer may be realizing that their previous focus on instant gratification and pleasure-seeking has left them feeling unfulfilled. The overall message of the song could be interpreted as a cautionary tale about the dangers of prioritizing short-term pleasure over deeper connections.
