<… Read Full Bio ↴A multimedia artist, filmmaker and musician who hails from Jersey, NJ.
Between mixtapes, producing, contemporary art pieces and flight hopping from state to state Yeek has finally been able to drop his first solo music video which he directed and edited himself.
I would probably describe my style as 'imaginative'. My main influences come from cartoon style illustrations, funk music, & the 90s hip-hop culture & 90s hardcore American punk culture. I would have to say the major difference between LA & Florida is that the people are meaner in Florida & that helped me grow as person. I was born in Jersey City, raised in Florida." - YEEK
Love Can Be
YEEK Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Feel my heart beating? You beat me up in my chest
Got an evil smile but it draws me in like a sketch
I've felt love before. Whats the definition? It's death. Death.
You...
& I keep killin' time waiting for you to call
You keep tellin' me you miss me
But truth is you don't miss me at all
Love can be scary
Love can be spooky
Love is miserable
Love to me, is cold
Oh...
I'm way too skilled in reminiscin' in all the kissin'
Oh, I got shooters: it's Cupid...
But he keeps on missing
He keeps on missing
You...
You keep tellin' me you miss me
& I keep killin' time waiting for you to call
You keep tellin' me you miss me
But truth is you don't miss me at all
Love can be scary
Love can be spooky
Love is miserable
Love to me, is cold
Oh...
Love can be scary
Love can be spooky
Love is miserable
Love to me, is cold see less
The lyrics to YEEK's song Love Can Be express a complex mix of emotions surrounding love, with a focus on the darker and more painful aspects of romantic relationships. YEEK sings about the physical and emotional impact of love, with his heart "beating" and being "beat up" in his chest. He also mentions an "evil smile" that draws him in, suggesting a sense of danger or recklessness associated with love.
Throughout the song, YEEK seems to be grappling with conflicting feelings about his romantic partner. On the one hand, he longs for their attention and affection, waiting for them to call and telling him they miss him. On the other hand, he acknowledges that perhaps they don't really miss him at all, and that love can be miserable and cold. He also questions the very definition of love, suggesting that it may be a form of death.
Finally, the repeated refrain about the scary, spooky, and miserable aspects of love reinforces the idea that love is not always a positive force in our lives. YEEK's lyrics suggest that romantic relationships can be complicated, conflicting, and even painful, but that they are still worth exploring and experiencing despite the risks.
