iLove Lyrics

April 21, 2012 3 min read

These are lyrics from my song iLove on my new album “The Good Life.” Anybody else suffer from iLove?

My girlfriend’s name starts with an I

Shines bright like stars in the sky

Stays by my side, when its dark she’s the light

She befriends many, and we get lost in her eyes

Staring at her instead of watching our steps

Run to her when we wake without catching our breath

She’s addicting, the truth: we’re fiends

But we ain’t sniffing glue, we’re just glued to the screens

She rules us, see the proof when she rings

We’d probably take two of her over two human beings

Her sisters? Some bigger some smaller

We sync her with em daily to keep her in order

We get her when she drops even if we can’t afford her

Ask me if I really need her? I be like, “sort of”

But when I seen her at the mall I had to court her

I keep her in accessories, ya boy do spoil her

I want her in my life, I’d do anything for her

Forget about a dime boy, she’s more like a quarter

I’m with her all the time, it ain’t nobody cooler

She’s a lil jealous man and I don’t wanna lose her

So instead of spending time with others

She only lets me talk when I talk through her

This is iLove

I love her so much I don’t need nobody else

I try to put her down but can’t help myself

She’s really affecting how my life goes

She controls me, I might go psycho

I can’t think now, mental lipo

Weighty thoughts are pushed out by her light shows

Community’s gotta take a backseat

I try to talk to others, but I’m feeling mad weak

There’s always something I laugh at, something I can look up

She keeps me entertained, till I barely ever look up

And when I try to get up in the text

She’s tapping on my shoulder to read another text

Look I thought she’d really be the best

I told her she a heavy ball and chain around my neck

She got mad like, “you got a better date?”

I had to man up, time to regulate

I told her if she ain’t gon let me meditate

Then for my sake, we gotta separate

Don’t wanna hurt her, I don’t wanna abuse her

But she’s only there for me to use her

How do you vote?

What’s your reaction.

The Good Life is here!

Experience the good life live, related posts, track 5: you don’t know.

this song is about phones/smartphones and how they take us away from reality, our problems by distracting us. Phones and text messaging have become a priority over social engagement in person, and can be a huge distraction even spiritually. (for anyone who wanted an explanation, that was my understanding if the song)

@ProphetLink

Lol, Praise God…not sure if you got my tweet, @ProphetLink, but praise God I believe I got it right before you posted this…iLove her too…had to seriously fast and pray to break the bondage I had to her…she was hurting my marriage early on…crazy…fire track on a blazing album. May the Lord continue to use you and may He keep you close so that you may allow Him to work through you. God bless your obedience.

iLove by Trip Lee

Songfacts®:

• "iLove" shares many of the themes that frequently appear in Trip Lee songs, including inspiring lyrics, a strong social consciousness, and an optimistic message presented through religious imagery. It's a song with a message that presents itself through strongly produced Hip-Hop.
• The song uses a clever metaphor to criticize our technology soaked culture, presenting Lee's iPhone as his girlfried ("My girlfriend's name starts with an 'i'"). The rest of the song explores Lee's relationship with his phone, ultimately concluding that most of the time spent on it is shallow, meaningless attempts to fill the empty moments in the day. The song invokes listeners to seek out a more meaningful existence than this and not give into the siren call of supersaturating their existence with technology.
• The song released on 2012's The Good Life . The album received strong reviews, with critics praising the album's return to a more traditional rap sound while successfully integrating a wider variety of guest musicians.
• Lee wanted The Good Life to function as a sort of call-to-arms to people sleepwalking through life. Speaking to Challies , the rapper said, "I want the listener to think deeply about the kind of life they desire to live. We're fed so many lies about what "the good life" is and I set out to challenge those lies on this album".
