Lucky Jam
Soft Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I pick a fight to please
And I know I've lost
It's that I've got you on your knees
It's the way that things are starting to go
To my dream
It's in everything I know
My time is gonna come on time
Seems like the things I try
The things I try to say
Come out so wrong
Then start to make sense right away
And it's the way the wind is starting to blow
It's in my dream
It's in everything I know
My time is gonna come on time
My time is gonna come on time
There is so much left to say
But I keep on waiting for that magic number
And there is so much left to do
That I keep on coming
Keep on coming down
Oh, yeah
Coming down to nothing
If I was to stay
No more people and no parade
A little help from Sam
And I think we got enough of a lucky jam
Yeah, I think we got enough of a lucky jam
It seems like it keeps on coming
Keeps on coming back
And I know it's wrong
I know I'm not supposed to ask
And it's the way that things are starting to go
It's in my dream
It's in everything I know
My time is gonna come on time
And there is so much left to say
But I keep on waiting for that magic number
And there is so much left to do
But I keep on coming
Keep on coming down
Oh, yeah
Coming down to nothing
If I was to stay
No more people and no parade
A little help from Sam
And I think we got enough of a lucky jam
Yeah, I think we got enough of a lucky jam
(repeat)
It's a lucky jam (x2)
It's such a lucky jam
And I think we got enough of a lucky
And I think we got enough of a lucky jam
Think we got enough of a lucky jam
Think we got enough of a lucky jam
The lyrics of Soft’s song Lucky Jam suggest a sense of resignation and acceptance of one’s situation. The first stanza talks about picking fights just to please someone and feeling like a failure because of it, yet still feeling a sense of power over the person being fought with. The second stanza talks about trying to articulate something, but it just not sounding right until it suddenly does. The chorus reiterates that things are starting to change and that the singer’s time will come. The third stanza discusses waiting for something to happen and feeling like it’s not supposed to be asked about, perhaps because it’s out of the singer’s control. The final stanza repeats the sentiment of the chorus and also talks about being grateful for what one already has, referred to as a “lucky jam,” and having enough of it.
There are a few possible interpretations of the lyrics, but one common theme is a sense of effort and vulnerability in the face of uncertainty. The singer seems to be striving for something, but also aware that there’s a limit to what they can do. They also acknowledge the importance of being grateful for the good things in their life, even if they’re not exactly what they were hoping for. The chorus offers a sense of hope for the future, but also an acknowledgement that it may take time.

Seems when I pick a fight,

Keep on coming down

I imagine a scenario where I can focus solely on my work, with no distractions, and with just a little assistance, I believe I could achieve a satisfying outcome; I believe I have all I need to produce something good.

Think we got enough of a lucky jam
Think we got enough of a lucky jam
This is a fortunate situation, and I believe that we have all we need to make something great happen.
