Tsunami
Tinie Tempah vs. 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
In "Tsunami" by Tinie Tempah vs. DVBBS & Borgeous, the lyrics speak to the experience of feeling overwhelmed by life and the desire to break free from the monotony. The opening line sets the tone for the rest of the song with the comparison of life to riding a wave. The use of a roller coaster inside of a maze as a metaphor for life further emphasizes the chaotic, confusing nature of existence. The chorus echoes this theme with the repetition of feeling stuck in a daze and riding a wave.
In the second verse, the lyrics turn to the desire for excitement and rebellion. The singer craves the rush of adrenaline and wants to be seen as special, not settling for just any ordinary experience or prize. The mention of silver and gold also implies a certain level of wealth and status that the singer has attained, but still finds unfulfilling.
Overall, "Tsunami" presents a complex mix of emotions through its lyrics - feeling stuck and trapped while also craving adventure and a break from the monotony of life.

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