Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Crying and sobbing
Just thinkin bout what you do
And even though you do what you do
I ain’t done with you
Worrying bout when you gonna come home
That’s the dumb shit that come with you
I stuck it out through the slums with you
Tryna put trust in you
I had enough of you
But I’m not done with you
Not gone play dumb for you
But I’m the one for you
And I know it
Gave you my heart and I told you to hold it
Over and over again you done broke it
I want your love but I swear it’s the coldest
But I can’t lie baby you got me open
Boy I swear you took my breath away
Only good when ya right next to me
Tryna keep it cool and slow the pace
Can’t no other nigga take your place
I just wanna
Treat you better than ya exes did
I know you got them
Bitches on ya but they irrelevant
I don’t wanna be
(Be without ya, be without ya)
Feel like I can’t breathe
(Breathe without ya, breathe without ya)
I don’t wanna be
(Be without ya, be without ya)
I don’t wanna be alone (Yea)
Toss and turning
These thoughts in my head
I’d rather be dead
Look what ya did to me
Are kidding me
Just be real wit me (yea yea yea)
I’m thinking at a million miles per minute
Man I hate these fucking feelings when I’m in em
You told me you’d stay down but ya didn’t
All them times that I cry
Thinking bout all of them times that you lied
Had weaknesses in you, knew mine
I Couldn’t love couldn’t trust you knew why
Though you trouble I love you I do I
Told my momma bout you she knew that
I had lost it
Tired of hearing new lies
Exhausted
But even though you keep playing these games
And ya love ain’t the same
I just can’t seem to let you go
Boy I swear you took my breath away
Only good when ya right next to me
Tryna keep it cool and slow the pace
Can’t no other nigga take your place
I just wanna
Treat you better than ya exes did
I know you got them
Bitches on ya but they irrelevant
I don’t wanna be
(Be without ya, be without ya)
Feel like I can’t breathe
(Breathe without ya, breathe without ya)
I don’t wanna be
(Be without ya, be without ya)
I don’t wanna be alone (Yea)
Be without ya, be without ya
Breathe without ya, breathe without ya
Be without ya, be without ya
I don’t wanna be alone (Yea)
The song "Don" by Renee is a passionate and upbeat song about moving on from a toxic and hurtful relationship. The song starts with the singer waking up alone in a cold bed, trying to shake off the dream of her ex-lover. She then hears that her ex brought another girl to their favorite spot and she must face the fact that he has moved on. In response to this realization, the singer screams out that she doesn't care. She repeats this phrase multiple times throughout the song, emphasizing the idea that she has moved on and is not affected by the words or actions of her ex.
As the song progresses, the singer becomes more and more empowered, expressing her disdain for the gossip that surrounds her and her ex’s relationship. She shares that she is tired of people telling her to slow down and take care of herself because it implies that she is still weak and vulnerable but she knows that she is resilient and strong enough to not care. She also reflects on how things are falling into place, that this is just another bump in the road, and that she will not let the relationship define her anymore. The song emphasizes the idea that the singer is taking control of her own life and emotions, and moving forward with less concern for her ex's actions or opinions.
Overall, "Don" by Renee is a powerful song about the process of moving on from a past relationship, coming to terms with the end, and learning to depend on oneself. The song is a reminder to prioritize your own happiness and well-being, rather than being caught up in the negative energy of others.

Waking up diagonal like an animal in a cold and empty bed, yeah
I woke up in a vulnerable state, feeling like an animal in a cold and lonely bed
Shaking off that dream of you, I got shit to do and I'm ready to forget, oh yeah
I'm trying to let go of the memory of you because I have important things to do and I need to move on
I heard you brought that girl around in half a gown and asked if I've been there, oh yeah
I heard that you brought another girl to our place and asked if I was ever there with you
Ask me how I'm doing now, I scream out loud, I tell 'em I don't care
When people ask me how I'm doing, I shout that I don't care about you anymore
And I don't care
I really don't care
And it feels so fucking good to say I swear
It feels liberating to say it aloud
That I don't care
I truly don't care
And everywhere
In every place
There are ordinary hearts that don't play fair
Many people have ordinary but deceptive hearts
But I don't care
But I still don't care
In this town word gets around
In this place, rumors spread quickly
But don't bring me down, just static in my head, yeah
But don't let it affect me, I just have to deal with the noise in my head
So take me out and turn it up
Let's go out and enjoy ourselves
Well, let's make it rough
Let's be wild, let's make it crazy
We're gonna wake the dead, oh, baby
We'll have so much fun that it'll seem like we're bringing the dead back to life
Everyone is saying now, just slow it down
Everyone is advising me to take it easy
Or I'll get hurt again, oh yeah
Or else I might get hurt again
When these things are feeling me, it's healing me
When I feel these things, it's helping me heal
And I'm screaming I don't care
And still I shout that I don't care
Doesn't matter anyway
It doesn't matter anymore
I can see the Milky Way
I can see the stars in the sky
And it seems so far away, oh
And they seem so distant
It doesn't matter anyway
It really doesn't matter anymore
It's all falling into place
Everything is falling into place
Just another pretty face
I am just another attractive seeming person
Disappears without a trace
I can disappear without leaving a trace
There ain't nothing left to say
There's nothing more to say
I don't care
I really don't care
Feels so good
It feels so liberating
Oh, I don't care, oh
I really, truly do not care
I don't care
I really don't care
And everywhere
In every place
There are ordinary hearts that don't play fair
Many people have ordinary but deceptive hearts

I've been a fan of L'Renee since the Natural Woman cover. That raw video on the streets of Detroit as a backdrop to her smooth tone had me hooked. I LOVE HER VOICE!
