Get Ova U
Omar Afuni Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm sure that you've moved on, but I'm still in my place
I drag myself to work, I force myself to eat
I try to get rid of this hurt, but it's worst when I go to sleep
This world don't mean anything if I'm living here without you
And now that you're not here there's nothing else for me left to do
But at some point I gotta stop my heart from breaking over you
Ha ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a (I gotta find a way)
Ha ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a (I know I gotta gotta)
Gotta get ova you Gotta get o-ova you You and I are overdue
I try and try to put a smile up on my face
but it's hard with all these memories that I can't erase
You're everywhere I go, the traces of what's left
of what used to be you and me at our best
Can't keep living this way, you're my drug, I'm addicted to ya
I need a cure for my condition, I wish there was one to
help me ease my pain for good & stop my heart from breaking over you
Ha ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a (I gotta find a way)
Ha ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a (I know I gotta gotta)
Gotta get ova you Gotta get o-ova you You and I are overdue
Middle 8:
Never look back, no point in that
You are all that you need to have
Just look around, love's everywhere
I can feel it in the air
Ha ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a (I gotta find a way)
Ha ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a, Ha ha-a-a (I know I gotta gotta)
Gotta get ova you Gotta get o-ova you You and I are overdue
The lyrics of "Get Ova U" by Omar Afuni express the pain and struggle of moving on from a past relationship. The singer admits that it's been some time since they parted ways, but they are still hurting and finding it difficult to function in their daily life. The memories of their time together haunt them everywhere they go, making it hard for them to put on a smile and move on. The idea of living without their ex-lover seems meaningless, and the pain is only amplified when they try to sleep at night.
However, the singer also recognizes that they need to find a way to get over their past relationship. They are aware that they cannot keep living like this and they must find a way to stop their heart from breaking over their ex. They sing a refrain, "Gotta get ova you," as a reminder to themselves that they need to move on from this toxic relationship. The middle eight of the song reminds the listener that love is all around us and that it's time to let go of the past to embrace the present and future.
Overall, "Get Ova U" is a song that captures the pain and struggle of moving on from a past relationship. The lyrics, combined with the upbeat and catchy melody, make this song an emotional rollercoaster for anyone who has been through a breakup. It reminds us that healing takes time, and it's okay to feel the pain, but we must eventually move on to find love and happiness again.
