Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump

Tell me that you love me when you know you don't love
But I guess I guess I guess is all good
You can play the game, I'mma still do my thang
Ain't no better way for it to be put
When you fuck them other girls I bet they be wondering why you always call my name
You think I'm gonna wait around

I ain't got all day

You don't need another lover
Don't you let it go
I already got it covered, let the others know

If you want it let's do it
Ride it, my pony, my saddle
Is waitin', come and, jump on it
If you want it let's do it
Ride it, my pony, my saddle
Is waitin', come and, jump on it

Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump

Think I give a damn boy don't you know who I am
I ain't runnin' 'round kissing no dude
Think somebody else like me gon' come around
Boy you got it misunderstood
Put it in your face but you wreckin' us yet
Like you can't recognize a good thing

Now that you got a chance
Tell me what it's gon' be?

You don't need another lover
Don't you let it go
I already got it covered, let the others know

If you want it let's do it
Ride it, my pony, my saddle
Is waitin', come and, jump on it
If you want it let's do it
Ride it, my pony, my saddle
Is waitin', come and, jump on it

Jump, jump, jump, jump, jump, jump

You say it's my fault, OK I get it
You ain't pick up your calls, I'm like forget it
See you put up your wall
You know you did it, the rise and the fall, just admit it
You say it's my fault, okay I get it
You ain't answer your calls, I'm like forget it
It's the the rise and the fall
It's the the rise and the fall
And you could have had it all

If you want it let's do it
Ride it, my pony, my saddle
Is waitin', come and, jump on it
If you want it let's do it
Ride it, my pony, my saddle
Is waitin', come and, jump on it

Jump, jump, jump on it
Jump, jump, jump on it
Jump, jump, jump on it
Jump on it, jump on it
Jump, jump, jump on it
Jump, jump, jump on it

Jump, jump, jump on it
Jump on it, jump on it

Overall Meaning

The song "Jump" by Theophilus London ft Rihanna is about a relationship where one partner is not fully committed while the other is still in love. The person in love is aware that their partner may not feel the same way but chooses to play along nonetheless. The partner does not want to let go of the relationship entirely, even though they may be seeing other people. They are still waiting for their lover to come back to them fully. The chorus emphasizes the idea of taking action and jumping onto the opportunity to be together, without hesitation or fear.

The song expresses the frustration of being in love with someone who doesn't reciprocate those feelings. It highlights the struggle of staying in a relationship when one is unsure of where it is headed. The verses suggest an ultimatum, where the person in love is waiting for a decisive answer from their partner on the status of their relationship.

One interesting fact about the song "Jump" is that it samples the '90s R&B classic "Pony" by Ginuwine, which is also referenced in the chorus. Another fact is that the song was never officially released, but it leaked online in 2011, causing Parisian fans to go wild. Rihanna's contribution to the song was also unexpected since she was not credited as a featured artist. Additionally, Theophilus London, the lead artist, previously opened for Rihanna during a tour in 2011.
