Deja Vu
Captivating Memories: Déjà Vu in Love
Lyrics
Baby, seem like everywhere I go, I see you
Expressing the constant presence of the person in various places.
From your eyes I smile, it's like I breathe you
Feeling a deep connection and joy from looking into the person's eyes.
Helplessly I reminisce, don't want to
Helplessly recalling memories, possibly with a sense of longing.
Compare nobody to you
Expressing uniqueness, unwilling to compare anyone else to the person.
Boy, I try to catch myself, but I'm outta control
Struggling to control emotions and reactions to the person.
Your sexiness is so appealing, I can't let it go
Acknowledging the irresistible allure of the person's sexiness.
Know that I can't get over you
Emphasizing the difficulty in moving on from the person.
'Cause everything I see is you
Perceiving everything through the lens of the person's presence.
And I don't want no substitute
Rejecting the idea of a substitute for the person.
Baby, I swear it's Déjà Vu
Swearing that the intense feeling is a déjà vu, a sense of familiarity.
Know that I can't get over you
Reiterating the emotional impact and rejecting substitutes.
'Cause everything I see is you
-And I don't want no substitute
-Baby, I swear it's Déjà Vu
-Seeing, things that I know can't be, am I dreaming?
Questioning the reality of the things observed, possibly in disbelief.
When I saw you walkin' past me almost called your name
Experiencing a moment where the person is almost called but then avoided.
Got a better glimpse and then I looked away
-Feels like I'm losing it
Sensing a potential loss of control or sanity.
Boy, I try to catch myself, but I'm outta control
Repeating the struggle with self-control due to the person's allure.
Your sexiness is so appealing, I can't let it go
-Know that I can't get over you
Repeating the theme of intense emotions and rejection of substitutes.
'Cause everything I see is you
-And I don't want no substitute
-Baby, I swear it's Déjà Vu
-Know that I can't get over you
-'Cause everything I see is you
-And I don't want no substitute
-Baby, I swear it's Déjà Vu
-Yes, Hova's flow so unusual
Introduction of a new perspective, possibly a rapper's, with references to drug use.
Baby girl you should already know
-It's H-O, light up the dro
-'Cause you gonna need help tryna study my, bounce
-Flow, blow, what's the difference?
-One you take in vein while the other you sniffin'
-It's still dope, po-po try to convict him
-Thats a no-go, my dough keep the scales tippin'
Emphasizing financial success, uniqueness, and making hits.
Like 4-4s, like I'm from the H-O-U-S-T-O-N
-Blow wind, so Chicago of him
-Is he the best ever? That's the argu-a-ment
-I don't make the list, don't be mad at me
-I just make the hits like a factory
-I'm just one of one, nothin' after me
Asserting individuality and denying any sense of déjà vu.
No Déjà Vu, just me and my- (OH!)
-Baby, I can't go anywhere
Expressing the constant thought of the person's presence everywhere.
Without thinking that you're there
-Seems like you're everywhere, it's true
-Gotta be having Deja Vu
Feeling a strong desire for the person's presence, contemplating a reunion.
'Cause in my mind I want you here
-Get on the next plane, I don't care
-Is it because I'm missin' you
-That I'm having Déjà Vu?
-Boy, I try to catch myself, but I'm outta control
Repeating the struggle with self-control and rejecting substitutes.
Your sexiness is so appealing, I can't let it go
-Know that I can't get over you
-'Cause everything I see is you
-And I don't want no substitute
-Baby, I swear it's Déjà Vu
-Know that I can't get over you
-'Cause everything I see is you
-And I don't want no substitute
-Baby, I swear it's Déjà Vu
-Know that I can't get over you
Reiterating the intense emotions and rejecting substitutes, concluding with a sense of déjà vu.
'Cause everything I see is you
-And I don't want no substitute
-Baby, I swear it's Déjà Vu

-And I don't want no substitute
-Baby, I swear it's Déjà Vu
