10 Let It Go
The .S.I.G.I.T. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe you got something on me
Maybe I got a little something for you
It's doused in gasoline
Let it go down easy - let it
Let it go
Black river of lust and violence
My mind's dancing on diamonds
My heart and soul's collapsed
Can't think about nothing baby
Take it all by degrees
And I got this river rolling
Thing rolls right over me
Black river of lust and violence
Best not to think about that
My mind's dancing on diamonds
My heart and soul's collapsed
Can't think about nothing baby
Take it all by degrees
And I got this river rolling
Thing rolls right over me
The .S.I.G.I.T.'s song "Let It Go" begins with the lines "Maybe I got a little something for you, Maybe you got something on me" which depicts a kind of mutual attraction between two individuals. The next line "Maybe I got a little something for you, It's doused in gasoline" implies that the attraction could be overwhelming, intense, and overpowering as if doused in gasoline. The lyrics suggest a certain level of risk associated with the relationship due to the use of gasoline as a metaphor. It could mean the relationship could be explosive and dangerous.
The chorus of the song features the lines "Let it go down easy - let it, Let it go, Black river of lust and violence, Best not to think about that." The phrase "Let it go" represents the surrendering of oneself to the attraction and lust, while the "Black river of lust and violence" signifies the darker side of their desire. The line "Best not to think about that" implies that it's best to not overthink or analyze the darker aspects of the relationship, but to allow it to flow.
The song continues with the repetition of the chorus verses and emphasizes the consequences of the attraction between the two people. The lines "My mind's dancing on diamonds, My heart and soul's collapsed, Can't think about nothing baby, Take it all by degrees" could mean that while the attraction between the two is purely physical, the persona’s emotions have been shattered or collapsed. Overall, "Let It Go" is a song about the intense attraction and lust that sometimes comes with darker, riskier undertones.
