Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is only half as far as you and I both know, yeah
Coming up from above, a little something
And it's only because I don't ever wanna see you in love
But I know
That you've been coming off strong lately and I can feel it that
You've been thinking that maybe, you got a
Another shot at me, thinking possibly somehow, but not now
And the sound of the thunder that's beating my head to the ground
But I, I know
That I can't go back to this, to her
To what we used to have, it's black and burnt
My God this is so sad, it'll only make things worse
If we bring it back
And I mean if you believe
That there is something still between you and me
Then baby honestly yeah, you're not the one for me
And I can't go back to this, to her
To what we used to have, it's black and burnt
My God this is so sad, it'll only make things worse
If we bring it back
If we bring it back, no
If we bring it back, oh
If we bring it back
If we bring it back
The lyrics of "Bring It On" by Roter and Lewis delve into the complexities of relationships and the struggle to move forward. The singer expresses the difficulty in taking things slowly when they know that the connection they share with their partner is not reaching its full potential. Despite wanting to protect themselves and the other person from getting hurt, there is a sense of inevitability and tension underlying their dynamic.
The singer acknowledges the other person's persistent efforts to win them back, recognizing the intensity in their pursuit. The mention of feeling like a hurricane and thunder beating down on their head signifies the emotional turmoil and confusion caused by this push-and-pull dynamic. The conflict between the desire for love and the fear of repeating past mistakes creates a sense of inner turmoil for the singer.
As the lyrics continue, the singer reflects on the impossibility of returning to what once was with their partner. The imagery of their past relationship being "black and burnt" highlights the damage that has been done and the impossibility of resurrecting something that has already been destroyed. Despite the sadness and nostalgia for what they once had, the singer acknowledges that going back would only result in further pain and heartache.
The repetition of the phrase "If we bring it back" serves as a poignant reminder of the futility of trying to resurrect a relationship that has run its course. The singer ultimately asserts their decision to move forward, acknowledging that the other person is not the right fit for them anymore. The final plea to leave the past behind and refrain from attempting to revive a relationship that is beyond repair encapsulates the bittersweet realization that some connections are better left in the past.

Taking it slow isn't easy if as far as you go
Progressing cautiously in a relationship is difficult if you're not fully invested
Is only half as far as you and I both know, yeah
Our relationship is not as deep as we realize
Coming up from above, a little something
Hints of attraction are emerging
And it's only because I don't ever wanna see you in love
I'm afraid of you moving on and finding happiness with someone else
But I know
I understand
That you've been coming off strong lately and I can feel it that
Your efforts to reconnect are evident
You've been thinking that maybe, you got a
You may believe there's a chance
Another shot at me, thinking possibly somehow, but not now
You hope for another chance, but it's not the right time
And it's been spinning around like a hurricane
Confusion and emotions are swirling like a storm
And the sound of the thunder that's beating my head to the ground
The loud and overwhelming thoughts are impacting me heavily
But I, I know
But deep down, I'm aware
That I can't go back to this, to her
I can't return to our past relationship
To what we used to have, it's black and burnt
Our past is tainted and damaged
My God this is so sad, it'll only make things worse
Rekindling our relationship will only lead to more pain
If we bring it back
Reviving our romance
And I mean if you believe
And if you still have faith in us
That there is something still between you and me
That there's a connection between us
Then baby honestly yeah, you're not the one for me
But honestly, you're not the right person for me
If we bring it back, no
Revisiting the past is not the solution
If we bring it back, oh
Trying to recreate what we had won't work
If we bring it back
Bringing back our relationship
