Keke Palmer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everthing's on my side
Nothin I can do now but just smile
I wouldn't change if it I could
I don't like wastin time
I'd rather spend it in the sunshine
Too young for worries on my mind
Aint nothin gonna bring me down (oh no)
I'm sittin on top of the world
I got my girlfriends with me, ya
Its all gonna work itself out (Uh huh)
I'm sittin on top a the world
I'm sittin on top a the world
Its too easy to be kind
Not hard to walk away
Too complicated isn't my style
When I open up my eyes
To another day
I know I can get there If I just try
Too young for worries on my mind
Can't say a thing to take this feeling away
Aint nothin gonna bring me down (oh no)
I'm sittin on top of the world
I got my girlfriends with me, ya
Its all gonna work itself out (Uh huh)
I'm sittin on top a the world
I'm sittin on top a the world
Some birds were meant to fly so high
You'd almost swear they touch the sky
Here with my girls the world is ours
So believe me aint nothing Nothing no
Aint nothin gonna bring me down (oh no)
I'm sittin on top of the world
I got my girlfriends with me, ya
Its all gonna work itself out (Uh huh)
I'm sittin on top a the world
I'm sittin on top a the world
The lyrics to Keke Palmer's song Top of the World talks about a feeling of exhilaration and contentment. The song is about being happy with life and not worrying about problems. The first verse talks about how the singer is feeling good about everything and how she wouldn't change a thing if she could. She then goes on to say she doesn't like wasting time and would rather spend it basking in the sunshine. The second verse talks about how it's too easy to be kind and how she isn't complicated in her style. She then acknowledges that if she tries, she can get to where she wants to be.
The chorus, "Ain't nothing gonna bring me down, I'm sitting on top of the world," reinforces the feeling of happiness and contentment. The singer is surrounded by her girlfriends, which makes her feel more secure and reinforces the idea that she is on top of the world. The bridge speaks to the idea that some birds are meant to fly so high that you'd almost swear they touch the sky. The singer and her girlfriends are those birds that defy limits and soar. They believe that nothing will bring them down because they are sitting on top of the world.
