Reset
Marcus Yates Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

On a big scale
Ranging from Heaven to Hell
My heart fell
It dropped and it cracked shell
My flesh wounds
They came from yo weird moves
That's not cool
I said that I gotchu
My time so precious, so precious
It's not anything to hit me up and tell me that you want this now
It's not anything to hit me up and tell me that you doing you
I gotta play it cool, I can't let you control my mood
That's not what I want you to do
I ain't got no rebounds on the boards
I ain't got no friends, so I'm bored
I ain't got no reason to record
I'm getting highly annoyed
Why you playing with the boy?
You done, I'm glad
(Just don't hurt me too bad)
Hold up, who's that?
(How you switch up that fast?)
I'm not ready yet
(Give me time to forget)
You onto the next
(I have yet to reset)
Oooo ooo ooo
Ooo haaa ooo
Oooo ooo ooo
Ooo haaa ooo
I have yet to reset
Oh cool
Ok that's what you really wanted
He's a downgrade, no shade
Tell me how long has this brewing baby
No way no way no way...
Right choice
Bad time, that's how we really doing
Pay me no mind, I'm fine
Tell me how long has this been brewing baby
It's yo heart, and not mine
You done, I'm glad
(Just don't hurt me too bad)
Hold up, who's that?
(How did you switch up that fast?)
I'm not ready yet
(Give me time to forget)
You onto the next
(I have yet to reset)
Oooo ooo ooo
Ooo haaa ooo
I'll be fine it's just fresh on my mind




You gotta give me a warning before you go do what you do
Hooo hoo hooo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Marcus Yates's song "RESET" convey a story of heartbreak and the process of moving on. The first verse sets the stage for the emotional turmoil the singer is experiencing. The line "On a big scale, ranging from Heaven to Hell" suggests that the range of emotions he is feeling is immense. His heart has fallen and cracked, symbolizing the pain he is going through. He blames the other person for causing these wounds, referring to their "weird moves." Despite his initial willingness to support them ("That's not cool, I said that I gotchu"), he realizes that he should not let them control his mood or emotions.


The second paragraph reveals the aftermath of the breakup. The singer feels isolated and bored, indicated by the lines "I ain't got no rebounds on the boards, I ain't got no friends, so I'm bored." He lacks motivation to engage in activities such as recording music, as he is still bothered by the situation. He questions the other person's actions and their ability to move on quickly, expressing his confusion and frustration. The repetition of "I have yet to reset" emphasizes his lingering attachment to the past.


In the following paragraph, the singer confronts the other person's decision to move on. He acknowledges their choice but expresses his doubts about its genuineness, referring to the new person as a "downgrade." He questions how long this new relationship has been brewing, implying that it may have been a factor in their breakup. The line "It's yo heart, and not mine" suggests that the other person's actions are a reflection of their character, not his own.


The final verse shows the singer trying to come to terms with the situation. He asks for the other person to give him a warning before making any changes in their life, indicating that he still feels hurt and caught off guard. However, he ends the song by proclaiming that he will be fine, although the pain is still fresh in his mind. The repetition of "Hooo hoo hooo" could be interpreted as a coping mechanism, a way for the singer to release some of his emotional burden.


Overall, "RESET" explores the aftermath of a breakup and the process of regaining control and moving forward. It captures the singer's conflicting emotions, from hurt and confusion to resilience and a desire to heal.
