J.Lo ft. ll cool j Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ah, ah

I've seen it on your face
Tells me more than any worn out old phase
So now we'll go separate ways
Never again we two
Never again, nothin' I can do
Like an image passin' by, my love, my life
In the mirror of your eyes, my love, my life
I can see it all so clearly
(See it all so clearly)
Answer me sincerely
(Answer me sincerely)
Was it a dream, a lie?

Like reflections of your mind, my love, my life
Are the words you try to find, my love, my life
But I know I don't possess you
So go away, God bless you
You are still my love and my life
Still my one and only

I've watched you look away
Tell me, is it really so hard to say?
Oh, this has been my longest day
Sitting here close to you
Knowing that maybe tonight we're through

Like an image passin' by, my love, my life
In the mirror of your eyes, my love, my life
I can see it all so clearly
(See it all so clearly)
Answer me sincerely
(Answer me sincerely)
Was it a dream, a lie?

Like reflections of your mind, my love, my life
Are the words you try to find, my love, my life
But I know I don't possess you
So go away, God bless you
You are still my love and my life
Yes, I know I don't possess you
So go away, God bless you




You are still my love and my life
Still my one and only

Overall Meaning

In "Skit," J.Lo ft. LL Cool J sing about a relationship that has come to an end. The chorus repeats the thoughts of a person who cannot accept that the end of the relationship has come. The lyrics describe the feeling of looking in someone else's eyes and seeing one's own reflection. The memories of the past relationship are touching and beautiful, but they no longer exist. The sadness is palpable, as the singer knows they do not possess the person they love and must let them go.


The refrain, "Like an image passin' by, my love, my life," evokes a feeling of nostalgia and wistfulness that many people can relate to. The phrase "mirror of your eyes" suggests that our experiences with love are essentially self-reflective. The lyrics show that love is never really gone from one's life, even when it's not reciprocated. J.Lo's voice is passionate and powerful, with LL Cool J's rap providing a sense of balance and contrast. Overall, "Skit" is a heartbreaking tribute to the bittersweet experience of losing love.

Experienced & Loving RVT

For those baffled why Pete gets so many hot famous women hear me out:

1. He isn't a narcissistic b**ch like most celebrity dudes

2. Wears his heart on his sleeve

3. Humble, real, relatable and super down to earth

4. He'd rather go on rollercoasters and eat at in and out burger with a girl then take her to some b.s red carpet event and eat caviar with all the plastics at an "after party" (so many hot female celebs are so done with all that s**t)

5. He makes them feel YOUNG AGAIN!!!

6. He has that boyish charm!! That carefree, fun, vulnerable side. So the women feel they can be too!

7. He's completely infatuated with his current love and makes sure she knows it. He showers them with praise, love, and makes them the center of his world. Because she is!!! No mind games with this guy :) Ever.

7. He has issues that he's completely transparent about. He is forthright about his painful struggles. And many women intuitively are drawn to wounded souls and want to "fix" them

8. He is sooooooo funny. He jokes and laughs all the time. He laughs at himself ffs
9. He's not hard on the eyes ( I have no idea why ppl act like he's not good looking. He's super cute & sexy imo)

10: He has BPE 😄 Remember what Ariana said about his...ya that 🍆

Hope y'all get it now!!!
