You and I
We belong
Still we always bring our bullshit home
Time is passing us by
Holding onto you tight
I ain't letting go
I just want you to know
You and me together it should work
But your mind is in another universe
Your ambition is a thing I like to see
Let me know, let me know
If you can find some time for me
How can we be strong
When the road is more than a million miles long
When the song is done
Will the love be gone?
Or should we forget it
Don't sweat it
Regret it
I ain't with it let's quit it, quit it
Is it red, is it green
Am I stuck in between
It ain't black or white
Just ain't feeling right
But it ain't what it seems
Can you say what you mean
Tell me why this always happens to me
You and me together it should work
But your mind is in another universe
Your ambition is a thing I like to see
Let me know, let me know
If you can find some time for me
How can we be strong
When the road is more than a million miles long
When the song is done
Will the love be gone?
Or should we forget it
Don't sweat it
Regret it
I ain't with it let's quit it, quit it
Missing you lately
All of the time
All you seem to do is argue
Make up your mind
Come to my yard
Bring all the man dem
The broke ass n*ggaz
With all the fake gem
Communication, that's what we need
All the silence makes my heart bleed
All you wanna do sit and bun weed
No R E S P E C T
Tell me what happens to our quality time
Every time we meet
You're bringing trouble to my mind
A good man is so hard to find
Maybe we should dead this
Come back rewind
How can we be strong
When the road is more than a million miles long
When the song is done
Will the love be gone?
Or should we forget it
Don't sweat it
Regret it
I ain't with it let's quit it, quit it
The lyrics to more than a million miles clearly states that
the song is about a relationship on the rocks. The girl loves her partner and
wants to be with him but she's getting fed up with the way he acts. The lyrics
and the title 'more than a million miles' could easily suggest the distance
between them. Not necessarily physical distance but emotional
distance; as if they could be in the same room as each other but completely
ignore one another because they both feel the tension. She repeatedly sings
about "not letting go" and "holding onto you tight" which
means she wants the relationship to keep going because she loves him so much
and clearly they've been through so much and now at this point theres no going
back. Although the love is still clearly there (mostly on her behalf) she has
mixed emotions about whether to push through the difficult bits or just leave
the entire relationship; with lyrics such as "is it red, is it green, am i
stuck in between?" referring to her place in the relationship. She is completely
unsure. When it gets to the rap verse, her feelings seem to become more
intense. she talks about what he's doing wrong such as taking drugs and
constantly having friends round to purposely ignore her. Even in the rap verse
she is considering ending things all together referring to the relationship as
'dead'. The overall feeling we get from this song is that although they've been
together for a long time and she loves him a lot, he isn't worth the time or
heartache anymore and she wants to finish things to stop herself getting even
more hurt.
