Mumbai
oOoOO Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
there's nothing wrong
nothing
nothing is wrong.
Don't do it all,
fuck it.
The lyrics of oOoOO's song "Mumbai" express a sense of resignation and acceptance towards the struggles and injustices of life. The opening lines suggest that there is nothing inherently wrong with the world, but rather it is our perception that shapes our reality. This notion is reinforced by the repetition of the word "nothing" which emphasizes a lack of substance or inherent meaning. The next line, "Don't do it all, fuck it", could be interpreted as a commentary on the pressure to achieve success and the sense of futility that comes with it. By rejecting the expectation to constantly strive for more, the singer may be suggesting that true happiness comes from letting go and finding contentment in one's current circumstances.
Furthermore, the title of the song, "Mumbai", adds a layer of complexity to the lyrics. Mumbai is a bustling city in India with a rich cultural history as well as a reputation for being a fast-paced and sometimes chaotic metropolis. The juxtaposition of the serene, almost nihilistic lyrics with the vibrant energy of the city could symbolize the clash between inner peace and external chaos.
