Some People feat. DJ Oriska
Ocean Drive Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Gilles]
Some people make it, so why I couldn't do it ?
I just want to live all my desires
But some people break it, what can I do ?
Oh baby, oh oh oh...
Some people make it, so why I couldn't do it ?
I just want to live all my desires
But some people break it, what can I do ?

[Oriska]
Dans tous mes soupirs, je ressens ton désir
Je garde ton odeur sur moi pendant dix heures
Dans tous mes soupirs, je ressens ton désir
Je garde ton odeur sur moi pendant dix heures
Ressens-tu mon désir ?

[Gilles]
Some people make it, so why I couldn't do it ?
I just want to live all my desires
But some people break it, what can I do ?
Oh baby, oh oh oh...

[Oriska]
Dans tous mes soupirs, je ressens ton désir
Je garde ton odeur sur moi pendant dix heures




Dans tous mes soupirs, je ressens ton désir
Je garde ton odeur sur moi pendant dix heures

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ocean Drive's song Some People speak to the universal human experience of desire and the feeling of being held back from achieving one's goals. The male and female vocalists alternate in their verses, with Gilles singing about the frustration of not being able to "make it" like some people seemingly effortlessly do, despite wanting to live out his desires. Meanwhile, Oriska's lyrics are more sensual and intimate as she explores the intensity of desire and the lingering presence of a lover's scent.


The chorus is repeated several times throughout the song and serves as a sort of lament or plea to the universe to allow the vocalists to live out their desires. The use of repetition emphasizes the futility of their desires and the feeling of being stuck or powerless.


Overall, the lyrics to Some People are simple yet relatable, tapping into universal human emotions and experiences of desire, frustration, and longing. The alternating vocals provide a nice contrast between the male and female perspectives, with Gilles focusing more on the external obstacles to his desires while Oriska delves into the internal, personal experiences of desire and longing.
