Cool On You
Keshia Chanté Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It can be a hundred degrees in the shade
I won't complain about a thing I'm over it
Got a fan blowin' on me man
I'm so cool on you don't you understand

[Chorus]
Like the wind in November
That was cold what you did I ain't bitter
I'm cool on you babe, I'm cool on you babe
I'm cool on you babe, so cool on you babe
All the games that you played
Got my heart growin' cold like a cube in a tray
I'm cool on you babe, I'm cool on you babe
I'm cool on you babe, so cool on you babe

Dinner cookin'
A good book to read
And a place to rest my feet
I sit and I wait for the breeze
Blow through my window ledge
To help me clear my head I'm sorry I
Can't be that girl
Who waits on the side
For my man to come back right
Got too much respect for myself
I knew this all too well
I can't let you waste my time

[Chorus]

Call up that girl you met at the club
Cause I'm not your one night love
I'm not gonna be number 3
Cause I would rather leave
Heartbreak and pain ain't in my destiny
You're like a cross between back taxes and
Bad traffic, I'm through
I can't be messin' with you
Build me up just to bring me down
I'm running out of reasons to stick around

[Chorus]

When you realize that you had a good thing
Don't even try I'm off doing my own thing
Cause I realize the way you are is how you'll be
Imma be alright, I don't need you comin' around
Keepin' me leveled to the ground
I don't make the rules,
You snooze, you lose
Do what you choose I'm cool on you

[Chorus]

Boy I'm see double O, L
Can't you tell that I'm cool on you
That I'm cool on you
Boy I'm see double O, L
Can't you tell that I'm cool on you
That I'm cool on you
That was cold what you did to me (Hey, Hey, Hey)





Ha, I'm over you!

Overall Meaning

The first verse describes the singer's ability to remain cool and collected even in difficult circumstances, suggesting that her strength and resilience extend to her relationship as well.

The second verse further emphasizes the singer's self-respect and unwillingness to settle for less than she deserves, even if it means being alone. She is not willing to wait around for someone who does not appreciate her or treat her well, and instead focuses on her own needs and goals. The bridge and final chorus reinforce this message, with the singer asserting her independence and declaring that she is "cool" with her decision to move on.


Overall, "Cool On You" is a powerful anthem for anyone who has been hurt in a relationship but refuses to let that pain define them. It celebrates the strength and resilience it takes to stand up for oneself and move on, even when it feels difficult or impossible.
