Think
The lyrics to James Brown Band's song "Think" contain a plea for a lover to consider the good things the singer has done for them despite the mistakes and bad things that have occurred in the relationship. The singer suggests that they have made sacrifices and attempted to please the lover, but also recognizes that they have been at fault at times. The repetition of the word "think" emphasizes the importance of reflection and contemplation in the face of a potential breakup.
The underlying message of "Think" is one of self-reflection and taking responsibility for one's actions in a relationship. The singer acknowledges that they have made mistakes and asks the listener to consider not only what they have done wrong but also the effort and affection they have put into the relationship. The repetition of the chorus serves to underscore the singer's message and emphasizes the importance of thoughtful consideration when facing conflict in a relationship.
Overall, "Think" is a poignant reminder of the importance of reflection and self-awareness when navigating a romantic relationship. By urging the listener to consider both the good and bad in the relationship, the song emphasizes the complexity of love and the need for honest communication and self-reflection.
