Erase Me (feat. Kanye West) Lyrics
She said she don't know me, anymore.
I think she hates me deep down, I know she does.
She wants to erase me.
And I see my baby.
And this what she tells me.
She said...
I can't get away from you.
Now, I keep on ducking, keep on ducking you, nothing helps.
I can't stop missing you."
It's like I'm her new nightmare, she ain't escapin'.
It makes me feel a bit complete.
Knowing someone you love don't feel the same way about ya.
Memories, they soon delete.
And I see my baby.
I missed you so damn much.
"I wish we could start over.",
I told my baby.
This what this bitch tells me.
"I keep on running, keep on running, and nothing works.
I can't get away from you.
Now, I keep on ducking, keep on ducking you, nothing helps.
I can't stop missing you."
On the TV.
No matter where you go, you might hear me.
Yeah, cause I'm in the magazines.
On the TV.
No matter where you go, you might see me.
Uh, I'm Yeezy, she say, "Hi, I'm Maria."
No, you a angel, you wave Hi to Aaliyah.
I got a show in Korea, they built a new arena.
Why don't you come watch ya nigga tear the whole scene up?
I know I seen ya before, but don't know where I seen ya.
Oh, I remember now, you somethin' that I dreamed up.
Don C says she cool, but don't let her fuck ya cream up.
Monica Lewinsky on the jet, she take you to the cleaners.
Sure enough, a week later, I'm in extra love.
And everybody know she mine, so she extra plugged.
Every bouncer, every club, show her extra love.
We just prayin' the new fame don't get the best of us.
But all good things gotta come to an end.
She let it go to her head. No, that mine, 'ria.
The height of her shopping was writer's blocking me.
I couldn't get my shit out anyway, I hope you die, 'ria.
"I keep on running, keep on running, and nothing works.
I can't get away from you.
Now, I keep on ducking, keep on ducking you, nothing helps.
I can't stop missing you."
iWilkesx, I think that may be part of it but the song is mainly about break-ups.
The girl in the relationship complains about things and breaks up with the guy. Then after a couple of days the girl realizes she messed up breaking up with him. She "can't stop missing [him]". However, she disappointed him and "it makes [him] feel a bit complete" that he's able to break her heart like she did to him. Then ironically after a couple more weeks he begins to realize he misses her, and "wishes [they] could start over". However, she's moved on. Then they can't stop seeing each other and it's torcherous.
That's how I see it atleast. Perhaps it's a bit literal, but it seems simple enough.
So damn catchy, I can't help it.
Tooo meee this song is about how since thye've found fame nobody love's them for who they are while theyyyy havee feeling's for said women but the women is only attracted to them for their fame/money.
In Kanyes verse, the girls name is Aria, not Maria.
hence the last line, "I hope you die Aria!"
But yeah the meaning is quite clear and self explanatory.
Great song
I'm kinda addicted to this song right now.. isn't there such a big difference between Kanye's lyrics and Cudi's? Cudi's stuff is a whole lot lighter than Kanye's
I couldn't get my shit out anyway, I hope you diarrhea. Is what I thought he said the whole time.
That's the point. It's meant to be heard both ways.
That's the point. It's meant to be heard both ways.
the diarreah part is play on words, he couldn't get his "shit" out, so he hopes she diarreahs meaning he hopes she hurts worse than he does, as well as "I hope you die Aria" or whatever her name is.
Cudi's part is pretty simple: Slowly realizing that as time changed your significant other has as well. "She said she don't know me, anymore.". Since love is such a strong feeling, and they no longer have love for each other, they give the opposite strong feeling back. "I think she hates me deep down, I know she does." They part their ways, he's left heartbroken. Than she comes back saying "I can't stop missing you." Which by then he moved on but enjoys knowing she got hurt too "it makes me feel a bit complete." He has some advice that she will move on like he did "Knowing someone you love don't feel the same way about ya. Memories, they soon delete."
Kanyes part: Play on words. Aaliyah=rnb artist who passed away. "Don C says she cool, but don't let her fuck ya cream up. Monica Lewinsky on the jet, she take you to the cleaners." Lewinsky the lady who had the scandal with bill clinton. So possibly meaning he shouldn't be with this young lady but he is comforting her saying they're scandal is "Clean" compared to Monica's. The love just like in cudi's part is dying "but all good things gotta come to an end.She let it go to her head." (enjoying the luxuraries of money but he assures her HE provided her with it all "No, that mine, 'ria."-ria is a nickname for maRIA) and THE BEST PART OF THE SONG "height of her shopping was writer's blocking me.I couldn't get my shit out anyway, I hope you die, 'ria." He is telling her to fuck off and die. So he can get his shit(music) out like "diarrhea". haha.
i love kid cudi. wicked lyrics !
Love this song. I've just come out of a relationship and it is exactly like how it is in the song. She wants to erase me, to pretend I don't exist so she doesn't have feel the pain of missing me.
