Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning

Mmm, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (J-J-J-J.R)
I'm feeling like a star, you can't stop my shine
I'm loving cloud nine, my head's in the sky
I'm solo, I'm riding solo, I'm riding solo, I'm riding solo, solo

Yeah, I'm feeling good tonight, finally doing me and it feels so alright, oh
Time to do the things I like, going to the club everything's alright, oh



No one to answer to
No one that's gonna argue, no
And since I got the hold off me
I'm living life now that I'm free, yeah

Told me to get my together, now I got my together, yeah
Now I made it through the weather, better days are gonna get better
I'm so sorry that it didn't work out
I'm moving on
I'm so sorry but it's over now
The pain is gone

I'm putting on my shades to cover up my eyes
I'm jumping in my ride, I'm heading out tonight
I'm solo, I'm riding solo, I'm riding solo, I'm riding solo, solo
I'm feeling like a star, you can't stop my shine
I'm loving cloud nine, my head's in the sky
I'm solo, I'm riding solo, I'm riding solo, I'm riding solo, solo (yeah)

Now I'm feeling how I should, never knew single could feel this good, oh (this good)
Star player, misunderstood, back in the game, who knew I would, oh (I would)
So fly how I spread my wings, loving myself makes me wanna sing, oh (sing)
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (oh)

Told me to get my together, now I got my together, yeah (yeah)
Now I made it through the weather better days are gon' get better
I'm so sorry (sorry) that it didn't work out

Put it on my side.

Wookie at my side.

I’m solo, I’m Han Solo,
I’m Han Solo.
I’m Han Solo. Solo!

There’s only like 2 lyrics… I’m riding solo, so 3 I guess but still. Don’t think you deserve a pat on the back for remembering these lyrics. Just want to make sure you knew that
