Tsunami
Tinie Tempah DVBBS & Borgeous Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stuck in a daze I feel like I'm riding a wave
My life is a roller coaster inside of a maze (woo)
I hope it's a phase, spending away more than I save
I don't know if I'm acting my age any more, man
I need to break out of this cage
My life is a roller coaster inside of a maze (yeah)
I hope it's a phase, (I hope it's) I hope it's a phase (I hope it's a phase)
I feel like I'm riding a wave
Tsunami, jump
Let's go
Chick, chick, jump
Jump
Get on my level
You're killing my vibe and to get on my level
Time to be special
I'd be loving the rush of the blood in my vessels
I feel like a rebel
I got silver and gold I don't need me a medal
One for the night and I don't want to settle
Driving the bus with my foot on the pedal
Stuck in a daze I feel like I'm riding a wave
My life is a roller coaster inside of a maze (yeah)
I hope it's a phase, spending away more than I save
I don't know if I'm acting my age any more man, I need to break out of this cage
Tsunami, jump
Let's go
Chick, chick, jump
Get on my level, you're killing my vibe and to get on my level
I feel like a rebel, I feel like a, I feel like a, I feel like a rebel
Stuck in a daze I feel like I'm riding a wave
My life is a roller coaster inside of a maze (yes)
I hope it's a phase, (I hope it's) I hope it's a phase (I hope it's a phase)
I feel like I'm riding a wave
Tsunami, yeah
The verse of Tsunami by Tinie Tempah DVBBS & Borgeous starts with the singer feeling like he's stuck in a daze, as if he's riding a wave – a metaphor for feeling overwhelmed and unsure of himself. His life feels like a roller coaster inside of a maze, where he's spending more than he saves and he's not sure if he's acting his age anymore. He wants to break out of this cage he feels he's in. In the chorus, he urges everyone to jump, saying "tsunami" which could be interpreted as a call to action or a metaphor for a powerful force that's about to shake them up.
In the second verse, the singer talks about how he wants people to get on his level and feel the rush of blood in their vessels. He sees himself as a rebel, someone who doesn't need a medal to prove his worth. He wants to keep driving forward and not settle for anything less. In the final chorus, he repeats the same lyrics as before, emphasizing the feeling of being stuck in a daze and hoping it's just a phase.
Overall, the song seems to be about feeling stuck in a rut and wanting to break free from it. The chorus and the use of the word 'tsunami' suggest a powerful uprising or change that's about to happen.

I actually can't get enough of this version, like the original but this adds something to it rather than waiting for the drop
