Look No Further
Kay B Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I might have been a singer
Who sailed around the world
A gambler who wins milions
And spent it all on girls
I might have been a poet
Who walked upon the moon
A scientist who would tell the world
I might have loved a king
Been the one to enter war
A criminal who drinks champain
And never could be caught
But among your books
Among your clothes
Among the noise and fuss
I′ve let it go
I can't stop and catch my breath
And look no further, for hapiness
And I will not turn again
Cause my heart, has found it′s home
Everyone I'll never meet
And the friends I wont now make
The adventures that they could have been
And the risks I'll never take
But among your books
Among your clothes
Among your noise and fuss
I′ve let it go
I can′t stop and catch my breath
And look no further, for hapiness
And I will not turn again
Cause my heart, has found it's home

In Kay B's song Look No Further, the lyrics express a sense of contentment and peace that the singer has found in their current life, despite the potential for other great paths they could have taken. Through the metaphor of different possible careers and lifestyles, the song suggests that the singer has found happiness where they are, and has no desire to pursue other paths. The repetition of the chorus "I can't stop and catch my breath / And look no further, for happiness / And I will not turn again / Cause my heart has found its home" reinforces this sense of finality and certainty in the singer's decision.
The verses of the song detail a variety of different possibilities for the singer's life, including being a singer, a gambler, a poet, a scientist, a lover of royalty, a soldier, or a criminal. However, each of these possibilities is ultimately dismissed in favor of the life the singer currently has. Among the chaos and noise of the world, the singer has found a sense of peace and contentment, and is not interested in pursuing any other paths or options.
Overall, Look No Further is a song that celebrates the idea of finding happiness where you are, and recognizing that your current life might be exactly where you are meant to be. It suggests that while there may be many paths you could take in life, there is something special about the one you are currently on, and it is worth embracing and cherishing.
