Nectar
Raveena Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You've been out a while
Searching for the one to settle with
Girl, don't trip
I could surely provide
Mother Earth in my thighs
Don't you see?
My honeybee
Searching for

Nectar
Affection
And truth, baby
Ooh, baby
I got the nectar
Affection
And truth, baby
Ooh, baby

Stretch marks on my thighs
Skin shades of earth
Knots in my hair
It's real
Don't fear it

Come and stay a while
You've been missing my
Sunflower, sun-showers I know
I get so wild, so
Let me show it to you
Mmm, I got the

Nectar
Affection
And truth, baby
Ooh, baby
I got the nectar
Affection
And truth, baby
Ooh, baby

I got the nectar
Affection
And truth, baby
I got the nectar
Affection




And truth, baby
Ooh

Overall Meaning

In "Nectar" by Raveena, the singer opens up about the beauty and depth of her body, and how it represents not only herself but Mother Earth too. The song is an ode to self-love and self-acceptance, where Raveena is encouraging whomever she's singing to not to fear any flaws they might have. The stretch marks on her thighs, skin shades of earth, and knots in her hair are all a part of who she is, and she wants her lover not to shy away from the rawness of it all.


Raveena uses another Earth-related metaphor when she compares herself to a honeybee, in search of nectar. In this context, nectar means love, affection, and truth. Raveena assures her lover that she's got all of these things, and that they don't need to search anywhere else because she has everything they need. She acknowledges that they've been searching for someone to settle down with, and she is ready to provide the love and security they're looking for.


The lyrics are a beautiful celebration of self-acceptance and self-love, with Raveena empowering herself and potentially her lover to embrace every part of themselves. The song's sensuality adds to its appeal while also making it an anthem for anyone in a romantic connection. The use of botanical imagery throughout represents the music artist's connection with nature and how it forms an integral part of the human body.
