Tell me why does it taste so bitter bitter (Sweet)
You talk say na me you want
But Samantha and Diana you they follow
Why you nor they practise what you preach no?
Tell me say
If its love or lust
I don tire for this matter, tire for this matter baby
You take my love play bolt away like usain baby
Na No Na no
Why you they do me like rollercoaster (Why you wan do me like that)
Why you they do me like rollercoaster (Why you wanna do me like that)
Lift me up bring me down spin me round and around
Lift me up bring me down spin me round and around
Hot then you're cold
Yes then you're no
If you wan go
Please let me know
Lie to me
Told me that you'd ride for me
But when the money comes don't come back to wife me
Do me like say
Nor be you wey dey come my way
When my 2 L turn to W
No come my way
Why you they do me like rollercoaster (Why you wan do me like that)
Why you they do me like rollercoaster (Why you wanna do me like that)
Lift me up bring me down spin me round and around
Lift me up bring me down spin me round and around
Why you they do me like rollercoaster (Why you wan do me like that)
Why you they do me like rollercoaster (Why you wanna do me like that)
Lift me up bring me down spin me round and around
Lift me up bring me down spin me round and around
The lyrics of "Rollercoaster" by Jaskelis explore the confusing and tumultuous nature of a romantic relationship. The artist questions the contradictions and inconsistent behavior of their partner, highlighting the bitterness they feel despite the supposed sweetness of love.
The first verse reflects the artist's frustration with their partner's inability to practice what they preach. The partner claims to want only the artist, but their actions suggest otherwise as they engage with other people named Samantha and Diana. This inconsistency creates a sense of distrust and confusion, leading the artist to question whether their relationship is based on love or lust.
In the chorus, the artist compares their emotional experience to a rollercoaster ride. This metaphor implies that the relationship is unpredictable, constantly lifting them up and then bringing them down. It symbolizes the partner's inconsistent behavior, causing emotional turmoil for the artist.
The second verse expands on the themes of inconsistency and deceit. The partner is described as being hot and cold, saying yes one moment and no the next. The artist pleads for transparency, asking their partner to communicate their intentions clearly. The partner's lies and betrayal are illustrated through the line "Told me that you'd ride for me, but when the money comes don't come back to wife me." It suggests that the partner is only interested in material gain and does not truly value the artist.
Overall, the lyrics portray a relationship characterized by confusion, inconsistency, and betrayal. The rollercoaster metaphor effectively captures the emotional ups and downs experienced by the artist. Through introspection and questioning, the artist acknowledges the hurtful behavior of their partner and expresses their desire for honesty and certainty in their relationship.

When my 2 L turn to W
When my victories and accomplishments turn into losses
No come my way
Don't come back to me
