J-Rican Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You ready?
Seems like everybody's got a price
I wonder how they sleep at night
When the sale comes first
And the truth comes second
Just stop for a minute and smile
Acting so damn mysterious
Got shades on your eyes
And your heels so high
That you can't even have a good time
Everybody look to their left
Everybody look to their right
Can you feel that? Yeah
We're paying with love tonight
It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag
Ain't about the, uh, cha-ching, cha-ching
Ain't about the, yeah, ba-bling, ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag
Okay
We need to take it back in time
When music made us all unite
And it wasn't low blows and video hoes
Am I the only the one getting tired?
Why is everybody so obsessed?
Money can't buy us happiness
Can we all slow down and enjoy right now?
Guarantee you we'll be feeling alright
Everybody look to their left (to their left)
Everybody look to their right (to their right)
Can you feel that? Yeah
We're paying with love tonight
It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag
Ain't about the, uh, cha-ching, cha-ching
Ain't about the, yeah, ba-bling, ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag
Yeah, yeah, well, keep the price tag (yeah)
And take the cash back
Just give me six strings (six strings)
And a half stack (half stack)
And you can, can keep the cars, leave me the garage
And all I, yes, all I need are keys and guitars
And guess what? In thirty seconds, I'm leaving to Mars
Yeah, we leaping across these undefeatable odds
It's like this man, you can't put a price on the life
We do this for the love, so we fight and sacrifice every night
So we ain't gon' stumble and fall, never
Waiting to see this in a sign of defeat, uh-uh
So we gon' keep everyone moving their feet
So bring back the beat, and then everyone sing
It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag
Ain't about the, uh, cha-ching, cha-ching
Ain't about the, yeah, ba-bling, ba-bling
Wanna make the world dance
Forget about the price tag (hey, hey)
It's not about the money, money, money (we don't need it)
We don't need your money, money, money (no I don't, we don't need it)
We just wanna make the world dance (dance, dance your ass of)
Forget about the price tag (ah, ah)
Ain't about the, uh, cha-ching, cha-ching
Ain't about the, yeah, ba-bling, ba-bling (it ain't about)
Wanna make the world dance (yeah, yeah)
Forget about the price tag
Forget about the price tag
Yeah, yeah, ooh
Forget about the price tag
In J-Rican's song "Tag," the lyrics speak to the idea of valuing material possessions and money over love, happiness, and simple enjoyment. The song starts by questioning how people can prioritize money above all else and highlights the seriousness and mysteriousness that seems to surround everyone. The lyrics urge listeners to take a step back, smile, and remember to have a good time rather than being weighed down by the pressure to accumulate wealth.
The chorus emphasizes that it's not about the money but about making the world dance and enjoy the present moment. The lyrics critique the obsession with money and the belief that it can buy happiness. Instead, the song suggests that true happiness and unity come from appreciating the present, valuing music as a unifying force, and not getting caught up in material possessions. The bridge adds a personal touch, expressing the artist's love for music and the joy it brings, highlighting the power of passion, the freedom from the constraints of money, and the determination to keep following their dreams.
Overall, "Tag" is a message to let go of the materialistic mindset and focus on the things that truly matter – love, joy, unity, and the power of music.
Line by Line Meaning
Okay, Coconut man, Moonheads, and Pea
Alright, my friends and I are ready for this
Seems like everybody's got a price
It appears that everyone is motivated by money
I wonder how they sleep at night
I am curious about how they can live with themselves
When the sale comes first
When making money is the top priority
And the truth comes second
And being honest takes a back seat
Just stop for a minute and smile
Let's pause and find joy in the moment
Why is everybody so serious?
Why is everyone so grave and solemn?
Acting so damn mysterious
Acting in a way that is puzzling and enigmatic
Got shades on your eyes
Wearing sunglasses to hide your true self
And your heels so high
And wearing high heels as a symbol of status
That you can't even have a good time
To the point where you cannot enjoy yourself
Everybody look to their left
Everyone, turn your attention to the left
Everybody look to their right
Everyone, turn your attention to the right
Can you feel that? Yeah
Do you sense that? Yes
We're paying with love tonight
Tonight, we express our gratitude through love
It's not about the money, money, money
This is not solely about wealth and material possessions
We don't need your money, money, money
We are not dependent on your financial resources
We just wanna make the world dance
Our main goal is to bring joy and movement to the world
Forget about the price tag
Let go of the obsession with monetary value
Ain't about the, uh, cha-ching, cha-ching
Not focused on the sound of cash registers
Ain't about the, yeah, ba-bling, ba-bling
Not about flashy and luxurious displays
Wanna make the world dance
We desire to inspire movement and happiness globally
Okay
Alright
We need to take it back in time
We should revisit the past
When music made us all unite
When music brought people together
And it wasn't low blows and video hoes
And it wasn't about cheap shots and provocative videos
Am I the only the one getting tired?
Am I the only one becoming weary?
Why is everybody so obsessed?
Why is everyone so fixated?
Money can't buy us happiness
Material wealth cannot bring true joy
Can we all slow down and enjoy right now?
Can we collectively pause and appreciate the present moment?
Guarantee you we'll be feeling alright
I promise, we will feel just fine
Everybody look to their left (to their left)
Everyone, turn your attention to the left
Everybody look to their right (to their right)
Everyone, turn your attention to the right
Can you feel that? Yeah
Do you sense that? Yes
We're paying with love tonight
Tonight, we express our gratitude through love
Yeah, yeah, well, keep the price tag (yeah)
Yes, let the obsession with money continue
And take the cash back
But give back the money
Just give me six strings (six strings)
Just give me a guitar with six strings
And a half stack (half stack)
And a half-sized amplifier
And you can, can keep the cars, leave me the garage
You can keep the fancy cars; I'll take the garage
And all I, yes, all I need are keys and guitars
All I need are musical instruments and a means to play them
And guess what? In thirty seconds, I'm leaving to Mars
And you know what? In thirty seconds, I'm metaphorically escaping to a different world
Yeah, we leaping across these undefeatable odds
Yes, we are overcoming seemingly insurmountable challenges
It's like this man, you can't put a price on the life
Listen, my friend, the value of life is immeasurable
We do this for the love, so we fight and sacrifice every night
We do this for the passion; thus, we struggle and make sacrifices every night
So we ain't gon' stumble and fall, never
So we will not falter or fail, never
Waiting to see this in a sign of defeat, uh-uh
Anticipating a sign of surrender? No way
So we gon' keep everyone moving their feet
So we will keep everyone dancing and grooving
So bring back the beat, and then everyone sing
Therefore, let's revive the rhythm, and then everyone can sing along
It's not about the money, money, money
This is not solely about wealth and material possessions
We don't need your money, money, money
We are not dependent on your financial resources
We just wanna make the world dance
Our main goal is to bring joy and movement to the world
Forget about the price tag
Let go of the obsession with monetary value
Ain't about the, uh, cha-ching, cha-ching
