Mr. Hudson ft Kanye West Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let me be your supernova
Before you make the biggest mistake of your life
Just give me the chance to get it right
They got it all
They've got all the things I thought I wanted
But I can't fall
To live this facade and smile as the warm champagne pours
Out on the lawn
We pretend we're having tonnes of fun in this world where we don't belong
Some bloke all alone
Is she thinking of me
Did she forget what we once had
And I feel like taking off
Let me be your supernova
Before you make the biggest mistake of your life
Just give me the chance to get it right get it right
Oh they got it all you can see they got it all
They got the cars the boat and the beautiful house by the shore
And you know there's more
But I can't take another minute of y'all
He wants his kids and the dog
He wants his breakfast in bed
He's got his trust fund saved
Not a worry in his head
He's not you or me
I wanna break up the scene and see you running back to me
'Cause I feel like taking off
Let me be your supernova
Before you make the biggest mistake of your life
Just give me a chance to get it right get it right
Yeah I feel like taking off
Let me be your supernova tonight
Before you make the biggest mistake of your life
Just give me a chance to get it right get it right
You've got it wrong if you say our love is gone
You've got it wrong if you say our love is gone
You've got it wrong if you say our love is gone
You've got it wrong if you say our love is gone
You've got it wrong if you say our love is gone
Yeah I feel like taking off
Let me be your supernova
Before you make the biggest mistake of your life
Just give me a chance to get it right get it right
Yeah I feel like taking off
Let me be your supernova tonight
Before you make the biggest mistake of your life
Just give me the chance to get it right get it right
The song "Supernova" by Mr. Hudson featuring Kanye West is a plea for a second chance in love. The singer expresses his desire to be a shining light in his lover's life, asking to be her "supernova" and save her from making the mistake of leaving him. He acknowledges that they once had something special, but now the relationship has become a facade, with extravagant possessions and experiences masking their true feelings. The singer urges his love to remember the love they once shared and give him a chance to make things right.
The lyrics of "Supernova" are replete with metaphors relating to stars and light. The title itself references a supernova, a rare astronomical event that occurs when a star explodes and releases an enormous burst of energy, making it one of the brightest objects in the universe. The singer compares himself to a supernova, hoping to be the brightest and most significant thing in his lover's life. He also contrasts his love to warm champagne, a symbol of luxury and celebration, but also superficiality and pretense. Overall, the song highlights the tension between materialism and authentic human connections and the importance of valuing the latter over the former.

And I feel like taking off
I have a strong urge to leave
Let me be your supernova
Let me be your shining star, your savior
Before you make the biggest mistake of your life
Before you do something you'll regret forever
Just give me the chance to get it right
Let me prove that I can make things right
They got it all
Other people seem to have everything I thought I wanted
They've got all the things I thought I wanted
They have everything I used to desire
But I can't fall
I can't pretend anymore
To fake anymore
To keep up my facade
To live this facade and smile as the warm champagne pours
To pretend to have fun while drinking champagne
Out on the lawn
In this fake, superficial setting
We pretend we're having tonnes of fun in this world where we don't belong
We act like we're enjoying ourselves in a place that doesn't suit us
Some bloke all alone
Some guy somewhere
Is she thinking of me
Does she still care about me?
Did she forget what we once had
Has she moved on from our past relationship?
Oh they got it all you can see they got it all
They have everything you can imagine
They got the cars the boat and the beautiful house by the shore
They have luxurious possessions
And you know there's more
And there's even more that you can't see
But I can't take another minute of y'all
I can't stand to be around them anymore
He wants his kids and the dog
He wants the perfect family and home life
He wants his breakfast in bed
He wants to be pampered and catered to
He's got his trust fund saved
He has financial security
Not a worry in his head
He has no concerns or anxieties
He's not you or me
He's not like us
I wanna break up the scene and see you running back to me
I want to disrupt their perfect life and have you come back to me
You've got it wrong if you say our love is gone
You're mistaken if you think our love is over
Yeah I feel like taking off
Yes, I have a strong desire to leave
Let me be your supernova tonight
Let me be your shining star and save you tonight
Just give me the chance to get it right get it right
Just let me show you that I can do things right
