Vibe.
JoJo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Way before you met me
In my Tims and my Happy socks
And I know how to get 'em off
See my skies all sunny
Got a pocket full of money
And maybe there's not a lot
But damn, I'm in a good spot
Got nothing to hide
You're not playing this right
You want some advice?
Boy, don't be killing my
Boy, don't be killing my vibe
My vibe, oh my vibe
Boy, don't be killing my
Boy, don't be killing my vibe
My vibe, my vibe
Boy, don't be killing my
You just might be killing me
Rock your body, rock steady
Love me, baby, I'm so ready
Wanna get lucky tonight
Boy, don't be killing my
Boy, don't be killing my vibe
Pla-player, I'm a real sensei
There's a future in you and me
Upstairs on my balcony
Yeah, got a good buzz going
And it feels good knowing
Got my girls here who got my back
And the guys got to deal with that
Got nothing to hide
You're not playing this right
You want some advice?
Boy, don't be killing my
Boy, don't be killing my vibe
My vibe, oh my vibe
Boy, don't be killing my
Boy, don't be killing my vibe
My vibe, my vibe
Boy, don't be killing my
You just might be killing me
Rock your body, rock steady
Love me, baby, I'm so ready
Wanna get lucky tonight
Boy, don't be killing my
Boy, don't be killing my vibe
I think I wanna what you got
You're the one who's got the shot
And now you don't go blowing it talking about your heart
Don't be so serious
Boy, don't be killing my
Boy, don't be killing my vibe
Rock your body, rock steady
Love me, baby, I'm so ready
Wanna get lucky tonight
Boy, don't be killing my
Boy, don't be killing my vibe
Boy, don't be killing my
You just might be killing me
Rock your body, rock steady
Love me, baby, I'm so ready
Wanna get lucky tonight
Boy, don't be killing my
You just be killing me
Rock your body, rock steady
Love me, baby, I'm so ready
Wanna get lucky tonight
Boy, don't be killing my
Boy, don't be killing my vibe
JoJo's song "Vibe" is about not letting anyone ruin a good moment or mood. The first verse speaks to JoJo's confidence - she was already cool before whoever she's with came along. She's feeling good and has a pocket full of money. She doesn't have a lot, but she's in a good spot. The chorus tells whoever she's with not to kill her vibe - she's feeling good and doesn't want anyone to spoil it. The second verse is JoJo asserting her dominance - she's a "real sensei" and there's a future between her and the other person. She's on her balcony with her friends, enjoying herself, and doesn't want anyone to bring her down. The bridge tells the other person that they don't need to be serious or talk about their heart - they just need to rock their body and have a good time.

I was cool already
I was already confident and secure in myself before we met
Way before you met me
This feeling of confidence predates our relationship
In my Tims and my Happy socks
I'm comfortable being myself and expressing my unique style
And I know how to get 'em off
I know how to have fun and let loose
See my skies all sunny
I'm generally optimistic and positive
Got a pocket full of money
I have resources to enjoy life and provide for myself
And maybe there's not a lot
I don't have to have a lot of money to be happy
But damn, I'm in a good spot
I'm content with where I'm at in life
Got nothing to hide
I'm transparent and honest about who I am
You're not playing this right
You're not respecting my boundaries and individuality
You want some advice?
I'm willing to give you guidance on how to treat me better
Boy, don't be killing my
I'm warning you to not ruin my positive energy
My vibe, oh my vibe
My energetic state and mood
You just might be killing me
Your actions could have serious negative consequences for me
Rock your body, rock steady
I'm encouraging you to enjoy the moment and have fun
Love me, baby, I'm so ready
I'm open to a romantic connection, but you need to respect me first
Wanna get lucky tonight
I'm open to a physical connection, but only if it's respectful
Pla-player, I'm a real sensei
I'm skilled and experienced in relationships
There's a future in you and me
I see potential for a positive, long-term connection
Upstairs on my balcony
I'm enjoying the moment with my friends and having a good time
Yeah, got a good buzz going
I'm feeling relaxed and happy
And it feels good knowing
I'm grateful for the good things in my life
Got my girls here who got my back
I have a supportive group of friends who care about me
And the guys got to deal with that
The men around me need to respect and value my friendships
I think I wanna what you got
I'm interested in you and what you have to offer
You're the one who's got the shot
You have the opportunity to win my affection and respect
And now you don't go blowing it talking about your heart
Don't ruin it by being overly emotional or clingy
Don't be so serious
Don't take yourself too seriously or try to control the situation
You just be killing me
Your actions could ruin any chance of a positive connection
