Don't Forget
Jimi Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Allow me to share
This real short story wit chu
About the fly in the jar,
Wich struggled hard
To break through
It was trapped by mistake,
Stuck with no real clue
How to escape it's jail of glass,
But it was lucky to see
The jar was pretty old
With some decent cracks
Just right for the escape
Yeah there was hope for that
It would make it's way
Out the jar eventually
And find an opening
Take the chance
To live life free (you know)

We all are meant to live
The life we want
We're never meant to leave
Our dreams behind
We're always meant to live
The life we want
Just don't forget. nah, I wont forget

I once knew a girl
Her family was poor
Her father'd lost his job
Their fate was unsure
Then here mama died...
She wouldn't stop to cry
And at that point she thought
She wouldnt survive
But she remembered
Remembered the dream
She always had
Decided to fight
And take life in her own hands
It was a struggle...
But she kept going on
And at the end
She archieved everything
She ever dreamed off.
(Yeah)

We all are meant to live
The life we want
We're never meant to leave
Our dreams behind
We're always meant to live
The life we want
Just don't forget. nah, I wont forget

Allow me to share
This real short story wit chu

We're always meant to live




The life we want
Just don't forget. nah, I wont forget

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "Don't Forget" by Jimi Blue describe two different stories that connect to a broader message. The first story is about a fly that got trapped in a jar and struggled hard to break free, until it discovered that the jar had some cracks that would allow it to escape. The second story is about a girl who had a dream that she fought for, despite her family's poor situation and her mother's death. Both stories demonstrate the theme of resilience and the importance of not forgetting about one's dreams and desires.


The fly in the jar represents people who feel trapped in their own lives, unable to reach their goals or fulfill their potential. The cracks in the jar symbolize opportunities that exist even in difficult situations, and that people can use to break free and achieve their aspirations. The girl's story further emphasizes this message, showing that determination and hard work can overcome even the biggest obstacles. The repetition of the chorus lines "We all are meant to live the life we want, just don't forget" emphasizes the importance of remembering one's dreams and never giving up on them.
