Missing
Me & Ms Jacobs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
just to go pick the easy route
I'm only gonna sing the part
that I already know by heart
I pick myself up from the side of the road
glance at the sun carefree I go
and I don't know where to
I'm about to turn from my wicked ways
maybe you should do so too
How would you ever
justify
going bout your life like that
All the precious time
could have been
wasted on life itself
So boy go blow it all away
You can, just put your mind to it
There are so many stupid things
Perfectly crafted just for that
Hell I'm bound for better days
I'm about to turn from my wicked ways
maybe you should do so too
How would you ever
justify
going bout your life like that
All the precious time
could have been
wasted on life itself
I pick myself up from the side of the road
glance at the sun carefree I go
and I don't know where to
How would you ever
justify
going bout your life like that
All the precious time
could have been
wasted on life itself
How would you ever
justify
missing out on life itself
The lyrics to "Missing" by Me & Ms Jacobs convey a message about the importance of living life to the fullest and not taking the easy way out. The song starts by acknowledging that sometimes blessings come in unexpected disguises and it can be tempting to choose the path of least resistance. The singer recognizes this tendency in themselves and decides to sing only the part of the song they already know by heart, implying that they are not fully embracing life's challenges and opportunities.
The next stanza talks about picking oneself up from the side of the road, suggesting that the singer has experienced setbacks or difficulties. However, they maintain a carefree attitude, looking at the sun and wondering about their destination. They express a desire to change and leave behind their wicked ways, suggesting a recognition that they need to grow and evolve.
The chorus asks a question about justifying one's way of living. The lyrics highlight the precious time that could have been wasted on life itself if one chooses to go through life without fully experiencing it. It emphasizes the idea that life is meant to be lived to the fullest and not to be squandered.
The final stanza repeats the imagery of picking oneself up from the side of the road and gazing at the sun. The chorus is then repeated again, emphasizing the importance of justifying one's actions and not missing out on the opportunities life presents.
Overall, "Missing" encourages listeners to reflect on their approach to life and to make the most of every moment, rather than taking the easy route or missing out on the richness and potential that life offers. It urges a rejection of complacency and an embrace of growth and experience.
