While writing this song, I wanted to be my most vulnerable self, and express all the emotions I had in myself at the moment. I reflected on my past relationship and how much that person was missed and how much I valued their LOVE, and not just the lustful sides of the relationship. The overall meaning I guess would be hoping for that person’s forgiveness and for that love and relationship you had would reconnect.

Jeilani – Starting Over Lyrics

 

Mistake
After mistake
But not one compares
To the one I had with you
I fucked up ’cause I was held up
From the thought of
If we wasn’t what we was
The things that we could do
It wasn’t the time
It was just on my mind
You in love with niggas
So it made you kinda lose
But who the fuck am I
To let this ride
Knowing what I’m capable
Of putting you through

If we
Had remained as just friends
I wonder
What we could’ve been
Can you imagine it?
‘Cause I know, I can’t
Crossed that line
So now I ain’t
Got shit else to say
If we
Could start over

Connections got way too complicated
Perceptions seemed way too overrated
No time to wait on participation
Bottled feelings became deep lacerations
Would I look like I was talking bullshit?
If I told you that your kiss ain’t what I miss
But it’s the promise that we made to never drift
And my duty as a man to uphold it

If we (If we)
Had remained as just friends
I wonder (wonder, wonder, wonder)
What we could’ve been
Can you imagine it?
‘Cause I know, I can’t imagine it
Crossed that line
So now I ain’t
Got shit else to say (I ain’t got shit else to say)
If we (Ooh, woah)
Could start over (Ooh)

Sometimes
I go to sleep
And wish to never wake up
At night
Cause in my dreams
That’s where we kiss and make up
But I still got faith in what we had
And I’m willing to take it all back
For a chance to treat you
At my expense
Blow some trees in the whip
And love again

It may never be the same
But I’ll be here, yeah
I’ll be here, yeah
You may never get over the pain (Ooh)
But I’ll be here, yeah
I’ll be here, yeah
I might be putting more than my all
But I still care
And I’m still here to let you know
You don’t have to answer my calls
But I’ll be waiting for that text
When you forgive it all
