Jayda G Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I handle mine
Wanting what you want, you got do it right
'Cause the money's tight
I got to draw the line
Walking through the waters 'cause the river's high
I pick myself and I can tell
Without question
Changed my personality
Help the people close me
Want it all, want it all, want it all
Without question
You keep teaching me
But it wasn't meant to be (meant to be)
You keep teaching me
But it wasn't meant to be (meant to be)
Right off the bat
I am black
People keep on trusting me through all of that
Highs and lows
Seeing how I grow
Taking all the good until it overflows
I pick myself
And I can tell
Want it all, want it all, want it all
Without question
Changed my personality
Help the people close to me
Want it all, want it all, want it all
Without question
You keep teaching me
But it wasn't meant to be (meant to be)
You keep teaching me
But it wasn't meant to be (meant to be)
You keep teaching me
But it wasn't meant to be (meant to be)
You keep teaching me
But it wasn't meant to be (meant to be)
Teach me
Teach me (it wasn't meant to be)
Teach me
Teach me (it wasn't meant to be)
You keep teaching me
But it wasn't meant to be (wasn't meant to be)
You keep teaching me
But it wasn't meant to be (wasn't meant to be)
You keep teaching me
But it wasn't meant to be (wasn't meant to be)
You keep teaching me
But it wasn't meant to be (wasn't meant to be)
(It wasn't meant to be)
In the first verse, the lyrics express the need for stability and responsibility. The singer acknowledges that they have to take control of their own life and handle their own affairs. They emphasize the importance of doing things correctly, particularly when money is tight. The mention of "walking through the waters" suggests that they are facing challenges and obstacles, but they are determined to keep going despite the difficult circumstances.
The chorus reveals a deep desire to achieve success and fulfillment. The repetition of "want it all" conveys the singer's ambition and determination to have everything they desire. They express a strong sense of confidence and a willingness to pursue their dreams without hesitation or doubt.
In the second verse, the lyrics touch on personal growth and the impact it has on the singer's relationships. They've undergone a transformation in their personality and have become more supportive and helpful to the people close to them. This change is driven by their desire to achieve their goals and aspirations. Again, they reiterate their unwavering determination to have it all without questioning their path.
The repetition of the phrase "You keep teaching me, but it wasn't meant to be" in the chorus suggests that despite receiving guidance and lessons from others, the singer realizes that not everything is meant to work out as they had anticipated. They acknowledge that some things are simply not destined to happen for them. This realization does not deter their ambition or drive, but rather serves as a reminder that they must adapt and learn from these experiences.
Overall, the song captures a sense of resilience, determination, and self-reflection. The lyrics convey the singer's understanding that they must take control of their own destiny and pursue their dreams with unwavering determination and belief in their own abilities. They acknowledge that not everything will go as planned, but they will continue to learn and grow from these experiences.
