Secrets
Jamaica Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If I wanna be a fighter
I gotta have someone like you
Well I get the picture
If you wanna be a lover
You gotta have someone like me I wouldn't say a word it if it was up to me
I wouldn't hear a thing
The kind that makes my ears bleed
Spend all our time together while i was on a rope
She began telling me secrets
She came for my advice
Well I get the picture
If I wanna be a fighter
I gotta have someone like you
Well I get the picture
If you wanna be a lover
You gotta have someone like me
I'm the shivering type, every vein pumping blood
We had some long talks, soon nothing left to smoke
She handed me her pack, no thanks, I have to go
Her hand was touching mine, well
I really have to go
She began telling me secrets
She came for my advice
Well I get the picture
If I wanna be a fighter
I gotta have someone like you
Well I get the picture
If you wanna be a lover
You gotta have someone like me
The lyrics of Jamaica's song Secrets suggest a relationship between two individuals. The singer acknowledges that in order to be a fighter, they need someone like the person they are addressing. The idea of having someone like him/her as a lover is also mentioned on the song. The singer would not let anyone know of what is happening between them as it could lead to a lot of misunderstanding. He/She then talks about someone else who they have gotten close to and have shared secrets with. However, the singer soon realizes that the relationship with this other person is not right, and need to leave immediately. From this, it appears that the singer is conflicted between two people, and is unsure of the right way to proceed. Ultimately, Secrets is about navigating complex relationships, and not knowing what moves to make.

you deserve to be at least rich enough to pay a lot of drugs and stuffs!!! Your music is amazing!!!!!! This music has anything to be a success I dont understand ! why your not on the radio . A lot of things are really good in your music and its not even weird enough to turn off the mainstream.. I'm a music maker too and its weird to see a band that is amazing and that doesnt hhas the success that it deserves.
