Warhola Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I felt behind, they lost control
This is how my lovers roll
I felt behind, they lost control
The more you tried
The less i'll find your company
Now just fake it all
The more you hide
The more i count on your eyes to see
How i take them all
I won't let you lift 'til you're into me
This is how my lovers roll
I felt behind, they lost control
This is how my lovers roll
I felt behind, they lost control
The more you tried
The less i'll find your company
Now just fake it all
Please, drive on the road to my fantasy
The more you hide
The more i count on your eyes to see
How i take them all
I won't let you lift 'til you're into me
They ain't just come inside
No one's coming, not this time
Scared of the fall
No one will come
No, no
They ain't just come inside
No one's coming, not this time
Scared of the fall
No one will come
No, no
This is how my lovers roll
I felt behind, they lost control
This is how my lovers roll
I felt behind, they lost control
The more you tried
The less i'll find your company
Now just fake it all
Please, drive on the road to my fantasy
The more you hide
The more i count on your eyes to see
How i take them all
I won't let you lift 'til you're into me
The more you tried
The less i find
The cracks inside
You left behind
The more you tried
The less i find
The cracks inside
You left behind
The more you tried
The less i find
The cracks inside
You left behind
The more you tried
The less i find
The cracks inside
You left behind
This is how my lovers roll
I felt behind, they lost control
This is how my lovers roll
I felt behind, they lost control
The more you tried
The less i'll find your company
Now just fake it all
Please, drive on the road to my fantasy
The more you hide
The more i count on your eyes to see
How i take them all
I won't let you lift 'til you're into me
In the song "Aura" by Warhola, the lyrics explore the power dynamic between the singer and their lovers. The chorus repeats the lines "This is how my lovers roll, I felt behind, they lost control," which suggests that the singer is used to being subordinate in their relationships and is now seeking to shift the balance of power. They sing about how the more their lovers try to impress them or win them over, the less interested they become. Instead, they want their lovers to "fake it all" and follow them on the road to their fantasy, indicating that the singer is in control and desires their lovers to be submissive.
As the song progresses, the lyrics become more assertive as the singer proclaims, "I won't let you lift 'til you're into me." This line reinforces the idea that the singer is in charge and that their lovers must prove themselves to gain their favor. The final few phrases, "The more you hide, the more I count on your eyes to see, how I take them all," emphasize the importance of eye contact, as the singer is using eye contact to assert their dominance and control over their partners.
Overall, "Aura" displays a complex view of power dynamics and relationships, highlighting the desire for control and the fear of vulnerability.
