Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But you wanted better
I used fire to manipulate growth
But you wanted better
After all I did it was never that
I never wanted you to let go
I never wanted to let you go
I gave the flower its crusading rose
You made the golden run from us both
And I said whatever
After all you said it was never that
I never wanted to let you go
I never wanted to let you go
Oh Oh
I never wanted to let you go
With regard to what I did to you
I never wanted you to let go
But you liberated my daunting past
It wasn't easy
To make something last
When all I did was stay true to you
I finally let you go
I finally let you go
After everything I did for you
I never wanted to let you go
You paved the road with your dark gray hue
I never wanted you to let go
I took the darkness like the way you knew
I thought it was easy
After all those things you made me do
I finally let you go
I finally let you go
I never wanted you to let go
But I finally let you go
The lyrics of Rick X & Omar's song, "Never Let You Go," convey a sense of conflict and regret. The singer acknowledges that they tried their best to use their knowledge and skills to improve the situation but their efforts couldn't satisfy their partner's expectations.

However, regardless of what happened, the singer never wanted their partner to let go, but eventually had to accept that it was necessary.
The second verse continues with the singer admitting that they tried to overcome their past traumas and become a better person for their partner, but it was challenging. Ultimately, the partner liberated them from their past, but this liberation wasn't easy, it required sacrifices. The singer acknowledged that their partner had a significant impact on their life, and they appreciate what they did. However, the singer finally let them go but, deep down, never wanted that to happen.
Overall, the song is a reflection of a complicated relationship where both partners tried their best, but it wasn't enough to keep them together. The lyrics capture the pain and sorrow of losing someone you deeply care about but, despite everything, accepting that it was necessary to move on.
