M.I.A
Omarion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My new lady says she leaving me
Ah fuck her, I don't care
Plus I got another over there
She been wanting to be with me
Got her in her underwear
Gave her what she want, now she need me
I got more of that coming over soon
Lingerie all up in my room
I'ma make this toast to that one girl I love
I still smell her perfume

Pour one up, no pour another
Pour one up, no pour another
Pour one up, no pour another
Numbing up

Since you've been away, love's been MIA
Done looking for love, cause she took away her
Now I'm MIA
Done looking for love, cause she took away her love

My new lady says she leaving me
Ah fuck her I don't care
Told me that she loved me, yeah
I just give them the scenery, they won't ever compare
To the ones still got it
I call her up but she won't answer
And she knows what I'm looking for
And she knows what I'm looking for

Pour one up, no pour another
Pour one up, no pour another
Pour one up, no pour another
Numbing up

Since you've been away, love's been MIA
Done looking for love, cause she took away her
Now I'm MIA
Done looking for love, cause she took away her love

I be a rolling stone, missus, still tryna deal with ya
Loving too much will leave you blue and I ain't pledge Sigma
I'm a real nigga, giving feelings just ain't me
The more attention you give em, the more options they seek
Talk is cheap, knew I should've kept the receipt
She said she loyal, but all bitches gonna talk in the streets




That's how I play it, how I play it, all it is is game
As I hit another paper plane I'm MIA

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Omarion’s “M.I.A” speak to a man who appears to have lost interest in the women in his life, particularly his new lady, who says she’s leaving him. Unfazed by her decision, the singer turns his attention to the many other women in his life, including one he’s got in her underwear. He reflects on the one girl he truly loves, still smelling her perfume, but seems to have given up on finding genuine love. Instead, he’s content to numb his pain with alcohol and drugs, as he raps about pouring one up, and hitting another paper plane. The track appears to suggest that Omarion is emotionally detached, and unwilling to fully invest his feelings in anyone.

That's how I play it, how I play it, all it is is game
This is just how I handle my relationships, it is all just a game to me


As I hit another paper plane I'm MIA
As I smoke more marijuana, I become more disconnected emotionally

@@SK-wp7tn The true gospel is the good news of the Person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ. In other words, it is concerning who Christ is and what He did to save His elect only. The gospel includes the how and why, which can only be seen by faith.
 
It is a message that declares how the eternal Son of God came down, took on a body of sinless flesh (John 1:14) as He was born of a virgin (Mat 1:23). He was both God and man in one Person.
 
He was born under the Law to keep and fulfill it  (Mat 5:18, Gal 4:4). He did that, not for Himself, but for all those He represented because they could not keep it themselves. The word of God calls these people the elect or His sheep, among several other names.
 
His obedient life also included the part of dying. He took on the sin of His people as both a Substitute and Representative of those people. The Bible said He was "made to be sin" (II Cor 5:21) and the way that was done is by God imputing (legally reckoned or charged to the account of) sin to Christ. That means all the sin of all those people God chose was "laid on Him" (Isaiah 53:6). This sin was legally transferred to His account and He then owned it in such a way to be guilty of it all.
 
God the Father poured out His wrath and hatred toward sin on His Son and had pleasure (Isaiah 53:10) in doing so, in that, He was completely satisfied in Christ as a Sacrifice that met all the demands of His strict Law and inflexible justice. Christ finished the work of paying the penalty of the Law and then said " It is finished" (John 19:30). He secured salvation for all God’s chosen people that would even be born. His resurrection is evidence of the acceptance of His sacrifice to the Father.
 

The combined work of His obedience to the Law and His obedience unto death on the cross was considered establishing righteousness. This is what one of the Old Testament prophets prophesied as "bringing in an everlasting righteousness" (Daniel 9:24) as Christ died effectually and exclusively for those chosen of God before the world began (Eph 1:4).
 
This righteousness is what God imputes to His people in the context of giving the life to believe in Christ. This puts them in a state called "Justification" and as a result they are eternally secure, in Christ. This is the gospel (Rom 1:16-17).
 
All this takes place in such a way to show God as both a God of justice and a Savior. This is how grace reigns through righteousness (Rom 5:21)

She said she loyal, but all bitches gon' talk in the streets
That's how I play it, how I play it, all it is is game
As I hit another paper plane I'm M.I.A."
