Air
N.B. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Pretty girl why sad eyes?
They said as she passed by
Taking it to the head high
Rolling, rolling finally feels right
Blowing kisses make no sound
You see their wheels turning all around
Painted faces releasing every crave out
Dance slow
Body is ready
Air in love out and repeat
Dance slow
Eyes wide open
Breathing in stranger's air
I know where you stand
But the ground under me just got cold
See you on the next round
You see her step into the light
And you know she's gonna change your night
She calls you green and smokes you out
She's moaning and you don't wanna leave now
Dance slow
Body is ready
Air in love out and repeat
Dance slow
Eyes wide open
Breathing in stranger's air
I know where you stand
But the ground under me just got cold
See you on the next round
See you on the next round
See you on the next round
Cuz it's not about how badly you want it




Or what are you willing to let go
Love slow

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of N.B.'s song "Air" seem to be about a girl who is feeling sad but is trying to brighten up her mood by indulging in some reckless behavior. Despite being called "pretty," her sad eyes suggest that she is going through something difficult. She is seen "taking it to the head high" which can either mean that she is indulging in drugs or alcohol to numb her pain or she is trying to be strong in her own way. She is blowing kisses but "makes no sound" which could indicate that she is trying to put up a facade of happiness while trying to release her emotions in secret. The painted faces around her are likely other people trying to hide their own feelings and let loose.


The girl dances slow, ready to let go of all her worries and sadness. She breathes in strangers' air which could be a metaphor for trying to escape her own problems by immersing herself in the lives of others. The singer seems to understand where she is coming from because they mention that they "know where she stands." However, despite feeling like they connect with her, they feel a disconnect because the ground under them "just got cold." This could mean that they feel like they are losing themselves by trying to understand her. The lyrics end with "it's not about how badly you want it, or what are you willing to let go, love slow" which could be interpreted as advice to take things slow and not rush into things, especially when it comes to love or trying to numb your pain.


Overall, the song portrays a complex mix of emotions where someone is trying to escape their pain while also being aware of the consequences of their actions. The lyrics are open to interpretation but suggest a relatable experience of trying to cope with sadness and heartbreak.
