    Honestly this song is amazing for so many reasons. Everyone writes about shitty love, sad things, or how much they love someone in a romantic relationship. Here's an original song about friends supporting one another in their relationships and to be encouraging. The lyrics are so great and the Caribbean steel drums make is so much happier

      That's most likely the rhythm of steelpans ex. 0:33 (or what sounds like steelpans) giving off that beach/summer vibe. But yeah, I get what you mean.

    These lyrics are so beautiful. I love how selfless and supportive they are of the other person. Most songs are about the singer but this one... it's encouraging someone she cares about in their budding relationship. This is a song you send to your friend who is timid about love and you just want the best for them, or your friend who just came out of the closet and is experiencing the right romance for the first time, or even your loved ones who are getting married and you want them to feel your support. This is the ultimate platonic, "I'm happy for you, I want the best for you, and you are a wonderful human being" song.

    I took this song in the context of self love now that I'm somewhere in my life where I'm starting to understand what it means. I will never forget this one 💛 If you struggle with practicality and self worth in your life, I know what it's like, and you can find compassion out there and within; just keep going. 🐞

      GIA can you explain what you think it means? I really can’t figure it out

    • @giagostinelli
      @giagostinelli Před 6 lety +59

      Don't say you can't figure it out, figure it out
      I know you can figure it out, figure it out
      Ok bad joke hahaha. So, for me this song is about somebody that has been hurt before (in a past relationship) and now has found a better person but can't admit it as is still healing. I would say that 'somebody' is talking with a friend, which is the one singing the song. So, the friend is trying to know which are the insecurities of 'that somebody' that is able to figure it out to be with this new person, or not, and it's trying to make 'that somebody' see that, as a friend, he has never seen 'that somebody' happier than with this new person, which is true love. That's why the friend says to let it go ('every time that you've been hurt before'), to don't overthink it and trust the feeling, and not to waste, or fake, this true love that is here.
      I hope I've explained my point of view. This is only what I understand from my own perspective, the real meaning of this song can be completely different but I don't know which is it.

    I know it's hard to admit it that you found love
    It's hard to stay in it, but he's better
    Than anyone I've seen you with before
    So talk to me, tell me 'bout all your insecurities
    And I'm tryna make you see what I see
    You're happier than I've ever seen you
    It's true love, don't fake it
    You better not, you better not
    It's right here, don't waste it
    You better not, you better not
    Don't say you can't figure it out, figure it out
    I know you can figure it out, figure it out
    It's true love, don't waste it
    You better not, you better not
    You better not
    Don't overthink it
    Let it go and try to trust the feeling
    You know it in your gut you're healing
    From every time that you've been hurt before
    I see it, I see it
    It's true love, don't fake it
    You better not, you better not
    It's right here, don't waste it
    You better not, you better not
    Don't say you can't figure it out, figure it out
    I know you can figure it out, figure it out
    It's true love, don't waste it
    You better not, you better not
    You better not
    You better not
    I know you can figure it out, figure it out
    It's true love, don't waste it
    Don't say you can't figure it out, figure it out
    You better not, you better not
    You better not
    You better not
    It's true love, don't fake it
    You better not, you better not
    It's right here, don't waste it
    You better, you better not

    My point of view about the lyrics is that is about a girl that ended a relationship with the boy that she is talking about a few time ago. She is still in love with the boy. But she is too mature to accept that this person has found love with another girl. And she is happy about it. She is happy for him. Anyone agree?
