Fool
Sara Diamond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So I can hold onto you
When you don't want me around
Now or later
Guess I'm gonna call up an uber cause you don't want me around
Don't want me around
Living on like we are something new
Baby you don't want to go there
So I will hold you to your point of view
Baby why you gotta go there
Gonna see if we can make the mark
Baby you don't want to go there
And I wanna know
Why
You
Feel
You
Can do
The things you do
While
You
Can
Treat
Me
Like
Your
Fool
Like
Your
Fool
Like you do
Yeah
You take my sweater
So you can hush me up
Put a finger up to my needs
Maybe later
Got all we got right now
Sex drugs ecstasy
Won't you just lay next to me
Baby why you gotta go there
Living on like we are something new
Baby you don't want to go there
So I will hold you to your point of view
Baby you don't want to go there
See if we can make it on the mark
Getting dark
And I wanna know
Why
You
Feel
You
Can do
The things you do
While
You
Can
Treat
Me
Like
Your
Fool
Like
Your
Fool
Like you do
Yeah
These lyrics depict a love that is filled with confusion, manipulation, and an unbalanced power dynamic. The singer takes their partner's sweater as a symbol of holding onto them, even when their partner doesn't want them around. They feel a sense of rejection and the need to distance themselves from the situation, hence the line "Guess I'm gonna call up an Uber cause you don't want me around." The repeated phrase "Don't want me around" emphasizes the insecurity and desperation the singer feels in this relationship.
The chorus delves deeper into the singer's frustration and longing for answers. They question why their partner continues to engage in a relationship that seems to be going nowhere, portrayed through the lines "Living on like we are something new" and "Gonna see if we can make the mark." Despite their partner's reluctance, the singer wants to hold them accountable for their actions and opinions, as indicated in the line "So I will hold you to your point of view."
In the second verse, the perspective shifts, and the singer describes how their partner takes their sweater to silence them, showing a lack of respect for their own needs and desires. The line "Got all we got right now, sex drugs ecstasy" suggests that their relationship may be based on temporary pleasures, rather than genuine emotional connection. The plea to "just lay next to me" implies a longing for intimacy and closeness, despite the underlying issues in the relationship.
The chorus repeats once again, emphasizing the singer's confusion and hurt over their partner's behavior. They are trying to comprehend why their partner continues to mistreat them and question why they are treated like a fool. The repeated line "Like you do" signifies the repeated pattern of mistreatment and the power imbalance within the relationship.
Overall, these lyrics explore the complexities and challenges of a relationship where one person feels taken for granted and manipulated. The singer expresses their yearning for understanding, honesty, and a stronger emotional connection, leaving listeners with a sense of frustration and longing for resolution.

Came across this on the “new music” playlist on Apple Music a few months ago... obsessed. Crazy this does t have millions of views. All it would take is for this song to be played on Love & Hip Hop then everyone would jump on the bandwagon. Idk who She’s signed to but they should promote her more. Very talented.
