SoMo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The darker side of fantasy
Yeah, you get exactly what you need
Feel the pressure rising when you breathe
Don't take your eyes off of me
Only know you're alive when you bleed
'Cause I love the way you want it
If I'm being honest
Think I'm gonna hurt you
And you gotta know I've got this
I don't wanna stop, yeah
Now I know the way you want it
Got you feel like, oh, oh
Got you feel like, oh, oh
'Cause I love the way you want it
I don't wanna stop you
If I'm being honest
Think I'm gonna hurt you
And you gotta know I've got this
I don't wanna stop, yeah
Now I know the way you want it
Got you high of what you see
The darker side of fantasy
Yeah, you get exactly what you need
Feel the pressure rising when you breathe

SoMo's "Want It" is a steamy, sensual track that reflects on the darker side of human desires. The lyrics narrate the kind of intimate experience that many couples can relate to, highlighting the passion and the desire for pleasure that can drive them beyond their limits. The song opens with the image of entangled bodies in sheets, setting the scene for an intense moment of sexual exploration. The chorus emphasizes the singer's pleasure in wanting to fulfill their partner's desires, while also admitting the possibility of causing some pain.
The second verse takes up the theme of fantasy, suggesting that the singer's partner is experiencing a high from seeing things outside the norm. This could imply that the singer is willing to go along with their partner's desires in order to satisfy their own curiosity and sexual needs. The repeated lines "got you feel like, oh, oh" suggest that the feeling is mutual and that both partners are swept up in the passion of the moment.
Towards the end of the song, the lyrics shift to a more emotional space. The singer acknowledges that they have made mistakes in the past that may have caused their partner some pain or frustration, but now they are ready to face up to it and work to rebuild the relationship. The final repetition of "now I know the way you want it" suggests that the singer has reached a deeper understanding of their partner's desires and is committed to meeting them.
Overall, "Want It" is a powerful and intense exploration of human desire, passion, and the complexity of sexual relationships.
