sandstorm
Mereba JID Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

We were low, we were high, Jekyll, Hyde
I'll still stay by your side
You know I tried, and tried, and tried, and tried, and tried
I was wrong, you was right, justified, I was playing with fire
What a divide, divide, divide, divide, divide

Good God, these niggas is crazy
Just fight the feeling, it's all we do
Inside, it's killing me, baby
Outside I'm cucumber cool
We might just really be crazy
He might just, she might just
(Be crazy, be crazy, be crazy, be crazy)

What if I told you (what if I told you)
That I miss the old you? (That I miss the old you, baby?)
I used to hold you tight, a ride or die for life
But I couldn't mold you (I couldn't mold you)
'Cause I didn't own you, baby ('cause I didn't own you, baby)
But I'm on my own two now, I've grown to know
A lotta shit that I didn't before
My heart in your grip don't let my shit slip on the floor
I followed your drip and finally see where you goin'
I try to remember
But then I remember that you got a temper, and I got no filter
So it's like a sandstorm, when we get to blows
Can we please take it easy?
Let's just act like adults
I'ma keep it cool now
Although I know it's through now

Good God, these niggas is crazy
Just fight the feeling, it's all we do
Inside, it's killing me, baby
Outside I'm cucumber cool
We might just really be crazy
He might just, she might just
(Be crazy, crazy, crazy)

Take a piece of my love, we've been through enough stuff
We probably need to go up and away
Keep the peace, it's all love, won't be no spite
Now we need to grow up and away
Take a piece of my love, we've been through enough stuff




Probably need to grow up and away
Baby, it's too crazy, it pains me lately

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Sandstorm" by Mereba and JID paint a portrait of a tumultuous relationship with constant ups and downs. The artists refer to themselves as Jekyll and Hyde, suggesting that they have two sides to their personalities - one calm and loving, the other erratic and dangerous. Despite the intensity of their love, they often clash and find themselves in the midst of arguments that feel like sandstorms.


In the chorus, Mereba sings about the internal struggle she faces in dealing with the relationship. While on the outside she appears calm, inside she is struggling to keep herself together. She recognizes that the dynamics of the relationship may be unhealthy, but feels trapped by her feelings for her partner. JID echoes her sentiments in his verse, admitting that he misses the person his partner used to be, but recognizes that he can't change her.


The artists acknowledge that they need to grow up and move on from the toxicity of their relationship, but struggling to let go. The song ends on a poignant note, with Mereba expressing her pain over the situation.


Overall, "Sandstorm" is a powerful and honest portrayal of the complexities of love and relationships. It speaks to the difficulties of letting go of a relationship that is no longer serving us, and the internal struggles we face in doing so.
