Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hold up
Just hit the road
Hold up
Knock on your door
Hold up
Take me back
When you're all aloneTake me back
When you need someone to hold
Take me back
When it don't make any sense
Oh no
I'm not here for your convenience
You found me one day
But you weren't prepared
In an unexpected way
You showed me your love
But you were so scared
I was giving you too much
Couldn't you see
I was never trynna be your plan B
So let's let this end
Maybe you should find new friends
Take me back
When you're all alone
Take me back
When you need someone to hold
Take me back
When it don't make any sense
Oh no
I'm not here for your convenience
Take me back
When you're all aloneTake me back
When you need someone to hold
Take me back
When it don't make any sense
Oh no
I'm not here for your convenience
Hit up my phone
Hold up
Gonna be right over
Just hit the road
Hold up
I'm not thinkin' sober
Knock on your door
Hold up
Then I look at her
And everything I worried 'bout will soon become a blur
Don't take me back
Don't take me back
Don't take me back
Oh no
The lyrics to U.H.B.A.'s song Take Me to the Rhythm start with the singer receiving an invitation to hang out from someone they used to know. The offer is not immediately accepted, and the singer seems to be taking a moment to consider before hitting the road to meet up with this person. The lyrics 'when you’re all alone' and 'when you need someone to hold' suggest that this person may have gone through a tough time, and the singer is offering their presence as a source of comfort.
The chorus of the song repeats 'take me back when it don't make any sense' and 'I'm not here for your convenience', implying that this person is not using the singer as a rebound, nor as someone to turn to only when they need something. The bridge is where the singer starts to express some hurt and frustration, about how the person in question showed them love but was scared, and how the singer felt they were being taken for granted. Ultimately, they decide it's time to end things, and the repeated refrain of 'don't take me back' drives the point home.
Overall, the song seems to be a message to someone who may have been in the singer's life before but hurt them in some way. The singer is ready to offer support and understanding but not at the cost of their own well-being. The lyrics highlight themes of self-worth, healthy boundaries, and not settling for less than what one deserves.
