Jordan Rakei Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
you and I can dream
but my dreams are more vivid
be still with no limitation
you and I are one
but your ego says no
theres no defined
you and I are here
rapture let it simmer
rapture let it simmer
as the bliss comes
as the thoughts fly under
focus on one
please take me under
remanise was
appreciate the darkness
Im at peace now
As the bliss calms
as the thoughts fly under
focusing on one
please take me under
remanise was
appricaite the darkness
im at peace now
The lyrics in Jordan Rakei's song Still in 2-3 talk about the collision of two souls and their journey towards being one. The singer is expressing the importance of being in the present and living in the moment without any ego or limitations. The dreams that they have together are more vivid, but the ego is holding the other person back from experiencing the full potential of the journey.
The chorus suggests that as the bliss comes and thoughts fly under, it's important to focus on one thing and let oneself be taken under. The singer describes reminiscing and appreciating the darkness as they have reached peace. These lyrics suggest that the journey towards togetherness is not an easy one, but it's worth it to appreciate every moment and let oneself be immersed in the experience.
This song speaks to a larger theme of the importance of mindfulness and being present in one's life. It reminds us that it's important to let go of our egos and open ourselves up to the experiences that life has to offer. The song is a powerful reminder to cherish every moment, even the darker ones, as they can lead to greater peace and understanding.

tri tri myte
It was dawn and I
Waited all [?]
So to typify
Said she called me mister
Under misty skies
Here to get there quicker
Rebel through the night
'Cuz I truly missed her
Universal charm
'Cuz she thinks it's humour
And I mean no harm
Lock down into this
Fall back she says
Let's just keep this mutual
It's these lines i tread
Too much life force info [?]
Midnight mischief strolling through my mind
Want you there but I left you behind
Midnight mischief strolling through my mind
It's my midnight mischief time
As the night awakes
I can see her sleeping
Step down mistake [?]
Does she know my secret?
I'm in love with her
Let the love manifest
Watch me take my serve
Does she know I'm master
Watch me take control
She doesn't know what hit her
Glimpses of her soul
Has a seamless dinner [?]
Numbers on the plate
It's my turn now
One minute to the hour
Midnight mischief strolling through my mind
Want you there but I left you behind
Midnight mischief strolling through my mind
It's my midnight mischief time
Come back home to the place I like when it's over
I'll be waiting all day
Never seem to hold myself and go to
It's a dangerous place (I'll wait for days)
Used to care but I can see you're hoping (I'll wait for days)
For a better place
Midnight slowly (I'll wait for days)
Creeping through the curtain
Midnight flow press rewind not much melody shows left tonight [?]
Midnight flow press rewind not much melody shows left tonight [?]
I'll wait all day for you, I'll wait for you
See I can't blame myself I got the right of way
And I can't blame myself I have the right of way
Midnight coffee and I'll let my love for you to take control

This is transcendent. There was a dynamic in that room that doesn't come around to often. Perfect moment.
