Solid
Savannah Ré Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Waiting
For peace of mind
I don't need no frills
Just need your heart
I need you to be solid
That you won't bend or break
Promise to me that you'll stay, babe
Oh-oh-oh-oh
'Cause nothing lasts forever
But I will take the weather
As long as we're together, together
Oh-oh
Yeah, askin' if you gon' be down, babe
Ready to let off some rounds, ayy
It's gettin' deep, I'll drown, shit
I like it the way we are, but you gotta be sure
This ain't just for anyone, pennies to some gold
If it's worth it, babe, we work through it, be more like Rome
We got layers to build, foundation first, let start with no doors
Honestly, I just, I need you here with me
As long as we can breathe
I need you to be solid
Promise, promise
That you won't bend or break
Promise to me that you'll stay, baby
Oh-oh-oh-oh
'Cause nothing lasts forever, uh
But I will take the weather, babe
As long as we're together, together
Oh-oh-oh
Don't let it go
This could be
Whatever we want
Whatever we want
Don't let it go (don't let it go)
We'll let it grow (we'll let it grow)
This could be
Whatever we want
Whatever we want, want
I need you to be solid
Promise, promise
Don't bend or break
Promise to me that you'll stay, baby
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
'Cause nothing lasts forever
But I will take the weather
As long as we're together, together
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
In "Solid," Savannah Ré seeks solace in the promise of her partner's commitment. She is waiting for peace of mind and does not want any frills; she just needs her partner's heart. Savannah requests that her partner remains solid and promises not to bend or break and to stay with her through the trials and tribulations of life. The fact that nothing lasts forever is acknowledged, but she is willing to endure whatever weather comes their way as long as they are together. The chorus is repeated with a plea for her partner to not let their relationship go and to let it grow into whatever they want it to be.
The opening lines indicate a sense of restlessness and yearning for stability. The fact that Savannah requires only her partner's heart and not need any extravagance suggests a desire for emotional stability. Additionally, the line "as long as we're together, together" emphasizes her need for their emotional union. The second verse paints a picture of a deep love that does not come easily, but it is worth it. She requests that they be like Rome, taking the time to build a sturdy foundation with no doors, indicating exclusivity and protection. Savannah states that she needs her partner with her for as long as they can breathe, reinforcing her earlier plea for togetherness.
