Dark Side Of The Moon
lil wayne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As I wipe the stars off the windows on my space ship
Call out the spirits in my basement
Crawl out the center of the snake pit
And fall into the middle of her greatness
Fireballs reflect off the frames of the pictures
She's not at all impressed with the flames or the flickers
But take her for a walk on the moon as she wears slippers
The end of the world is coming soon, I'ma miss it
The sky is fallling down, I am falling for her quicker
We hide amongst the clouds, then we pardon the enigma
High above the ground but I'm under her charisma
Her sound is in surround when I'm in her solar system
The quiet calms my quasars, the eclipses eclipsin'
My astronaut helmet kinda shifted, full of lipstick
Planet of the aches, and she is my prescription
We out of this world baby we have been evicted

Intergalactical love
The sky is falling, intergalactical, intergalactical love
And I'll be waiting for you, for you, for you
On the dark side of the moon
Said I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting for you
On the dark side of the moon
And If you happen to get there before me
Leave a message in the dust just for me
If I don't see it I'll be waiting for you
On the dark side of the moon (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Open up the curtains
Window watching, people killing, robbing
The sky is falling, falling down
It turn into news and this is the apocalypse
People living on their rocket ships
My mama always told me that there would be no stopping this
Fireball reflections on the friends and the pictures in my room, of I and you
Tell me will I see you soon
Meet you on the moon?

Intergalactical love
The sky is falling, falling down
I'll be waiting for you, for you, for you
On the dark side of the moon
I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting for you
On the dark side of the moon
And if you happen to get there before me
Leave a message in the dust just for me
If I don't see it I'll be waiting for you
On the dark side of the moon (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Said I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting for you
On the dark side of the moon
And if you happen to get there before me
Leave a message in the dust just for me
If I don't see it I'll be waiting for you
On the dark side of the moon (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Intergalactical love
The sky is falling, intergalactic, intergalactical love
And I'll be waiting for you, for you, for you
On the dark side of the moon




Said I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting for you
On the dark side of the moon (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lil Wayne's "Dark Side of the Moon" speak to the experience of falling in love and the feeling of being completely awestruck by the object of affection. The imagery of the space ship and spirits in the basement creates a mystical atmosphere, and the line "fall into the middle of her greatness" suggests the singer has fallen head over heels for someone who he views as truly great. The idea of "taking her for a walk on the moon" emphasizes the sense of exploration and adventure that comes with falling deeply in love.


The chorus, with its repeated refrain of "I'll be waiting for you on the dark side of the moon," suggests a longing for the person even when they are not physically present. It captures the sense of putting your heart and soul into a relationship and being willing to wait and endure hardship to be with the person you love. The final line – "Intergalactic love" – portrays love as something that spans the vastness of space and time, as if it exists beyond the constraints of our everyday lives.


Overall, the song showcases Lil Wayne's ability to create an otherworldly sound that complements Nicki Minaj's unique vocal style. Together, the two artists create a sense of longing and wonder that speaks to the intensity of falling in love and the desire to explore the unknown with the person you love.


Line by Line Meaning

As I wipe the stars off the windows on my space ship
While cleaning the windows of my spaceship that is soaring amongst the stars


Call out the spirits in my basement
Summoning the ghosts that dwell in the lower level of my home


Crawl out the center of the snake pit
Emerging from the middle of a den of snakes


And fall into the middle of her greatness
And entering into the core of her magnificence


Fireballs reflect off the frames of the pictures
Explosive flames are mirrored off the edges of the images


She's not at all impressed with the flames or the flickers
She isn't awe-struck by the embers or the flashes


But take her for a walk on the moon as she wears slippers
Instead, I'll escort her on a lunar stroll while she adorns sandals


The end of the world is coming soon, I'ma miss it
Armageddon is rapidly approaching; sadly, I'll be absent for it


The sky is falling down, I am falling for her quicker
The heavens are collapsing, and I'm falling head-over-heels for her much more rapidly


We hide amongst the clouds, then we pardon the enigma
We conceal ourselves amidst the mist, then we dismiss the mystery


High above the ground but I'm under her charisma
Floating above the Earth but I'm enslaved by her personal charm


Her sound is in surround when I'm in her solar system
Her noises encompass me fully when I'm in her planetary system


The quiet calms my quasars, the eclipses eclipsin'
The serenity soothes my astronomical bodies while the eclipses are overshadowing


My astronaut helmet kinda shifted, full of lipstick
My space helmet has been slightly modified and now has traces of lipstick


Planet of the aches, and she is my prescription
A world of pain, but she's the remedy that I require


We out of this world baby we have been evicted
We're otherworldly, but we've been forced to leave


Open up the curtains
Uncovering the window


Window watching, people killing, robbing
Observing outside as people are murdering and stealing


It turn into news and this is the apocalypse
The events transition into news, indicating the end of the world has arrived


People living on their rocket ships
Individuals inhabiting their personal spacecrafts


My mama always told me that there would be no stopping this
My mother always warned me that this wouldn't be preventable


Fireball reflections on the friends and the pictures in my room, of I and you
The fiery reflections bounce off the photos of us and our companions in my bedroom


Tell me will I see you soon
Inform me, will I see you in the near future


Meet you on the moon?
Shall we rendezvous on the moon?


And If you happen to get there before me
And if you happen to arrive there ahead of me


Leave a message in the dust just for me
Leave a note in the dust intended solely for me


If I don't see it I'll be waiting for you
If I fail to see it, I'll be patiently anticipating your presence


On the dark side of the moon (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
On the obscure face of the moon


Intergalactical love
Love beyond this globe


The sky is falling, intergalactic, intergalactical love
The firmament is cascading, and our love is transcending beyond this planet


And I'll be waiting for you, for you, for you
And I'll be expecting your arrival, yours alone, yours alone once more


Said I'll be waiting, I'll be waiting for you
I promise that I will anticipate your presence


Leave a message in the dust just for me
Leave a note in the soil intended solely for me


The sky is falling, falling down
The firmament is collapsing


I'll be waiting for you, for you, for you
I'll be expecting your arrival, yours alone, yours alone once more


On the dark side of the moon
On the obscure face of the moon
