The song "Solo" by Rudimental featuring Ella Eyre & Mark Crown is a tune about unrequited love. The lyrics are directed towards a person, who is too cool to love and acknowledge the affection that the singer has for them. The first part of the lyrics talks about the person going down loud, and the singer asking where they are and who they are. This can be interpreted as the person being boastful and showing off, which puts them in the spotlight. The singer wants to know who the person is and where they are to try and connect with them.
The next verse tells us that the person is too cool to love the singer back. The singer accepts this but still feels slightly hurt by it. The third verse states that the person wants the singer but won't say their name. The singer knows that they want them and can see through their front. The last verse reiterates that the person is too cool to love and explains the frustration of being wanted by someone who won't admit it.
Overall, the song has a somber tone and represents the struggle of unrequited love. The lyrics convey the feeling of the singer's desire to connect and also the pain that they feel from being ignored.

Gotta tell them how
I need to express my feelings to them
And they down now
They are finally understanding me
Where you are?
What is your current state or location?
Who you are?
What is your true identity?
You’re going down loud
Your decisions are impacting others and causing disruption
Let me go now
Release me from this situation
It’s all out
Everything is now in the open
And you’re down now
You are finally experiencing the consequences of your actions
You’re too cool to love me
You think you are too good for me
You’re too cool to love me back
You are not willing to reciprocate my feelings
No, I don’t mean that that that that that
I am not being sincere in saying that statement
Now I’m gonna say at all and all
I will express everything I am feeling
And now I can feel it and say
My emotions are coming through in my words
You know I’m gonna feel er, no?
You understand that my feelings are intense, right?
But I can’t feel to see you go
I am sad to see you leave
Because you know right then
You are aware of what you did
And you hold it back
You are suppressing your true feelings
A dop tu tu ru tu ru tu
Nonsensical lyrics for rhythm purposes

Me, I know
I am aware of the situation
Uh uh uh uh uh….
Nonsensical sounds for rhythm purposes
And you say before

Let it out oh, let it out
Express your true feelings

Don't prevent me from discovering the truth and moving forward
You’re too cool to love me
You believe yourself to be above me
