The lair in him
The fool in me
The lust in him
The love in me
The game in him
The trust in me
Real men are from Mars
Real women from Venus
This guy was from Pluto
At that time i couldnt see it :p
------ VERSE 1 ------
He said "i'll treat you just like a queen,
buy you all of those expensive things
give you everything you want and need"
He knew how to talk it but didnt know how to walk it
Yet, I had faith in him
He said "i'm your man, girl trust in me,
gimme your hand please let me lead,
it will be ok, cause i wont leave"
I gave him my hand when i should've run away from him
Yes, that was silly of me
Today im sitting here on my own !
Trusting nothing, trusting no one
Yes yes , I guess I've learnt my lesson
But the pain is so unbearable, i really need a miracle !
------- CHORUS -------
Magic, magic make for me, a man
A man who can understand who i really am
Magic, magic do your thing!
And make for me a man who can make me smile again
Magic, magic make for me, a man
A man who can cater to most of my demands
Magic, magic I know you can
Make me for me a man who will be my bestfriend - oh,
~who can be my bestfriend oh oh~
~who will be the best man... oouoh~
I know you can MAGIC, yes I know you can!
------ VERSE 2 -------
He said "i'll be there for you everytime,
all you gotta do is call out my name,
baby do you know im your number one fan?"
He had a good disguise which i failed to realize
Yep, I was so naive
He said "baby i dont cheat it aint my style,
it will be enough having you as my girl,
look into my eyes, you are my world"
I looked into his eyes but couldn't spot all the lies
Yes, he'd blinded me
Look at me today, Im sitting here on my own !
Trusting nothing, trusting no one
Yes yes, i guess ive learnt my lesson
But the pain is so unbearable, i really need a miracle !
------- CHORUS -------
Magic, magic make for me, a man
A man who can understand who i really am
Magic, magic do your thing
And make for me a man who can make me smile again
Magic, magic make for me, a man
A man who can cater to most of my demands
Magic, magic I know you can
Make for me a man who will be my bestfried - oh,
~who can be my bestfriend oh oh~
~who will be the best man....oouoh~
I know you can MAGIC, yes I know you can!

The chorus would paint a picture that the 'you' in concept was right and he was wrong. Funny, however, that the 'you' in concept was wrong in believing in him, and he was wrong to believe that he was right by being right through the concept of 'you' represented here.
ReplyDeleteIn every aspect of our humanity, which is frail, we contain the antiphrasis of the actions that we have. We seek to relay a message to the world of what we are on the inside, but sometimes our actions take the shape of the things we now to be true of ourselves on the inside.
He, the man in reference, wanted to be something he wasn't and therefore his actions ousted him in your world.
You, the woman in question wanted to be whole and not alone, but your actions in seeking what was quick and not good for you ousted your old ideas and replaced them in your 'new' world.
We cannot judge others in contempt because we also harness those things in ourselves that the person showed.
Liar - We all lie because of our weakness
Fool - We all are foolish because we don't know all things
Lust - We all have lust because we are of the flesh
Game - We all have games to play because we see the world as a child sees
Trust - We all have trust because without it we cannot know truth
Pluto is a far off planet, true, but Allah create pluto too! In the grand scheme of things, and in reference to all of creation, Pluto is closer to Mars then I am to you.
Magic cannot make you a man that is perfect to you, but Allah has created something/ someone that will complete the truth of you.
Hey you!
ReplyDeleteYeh you are right in saying that it seems like the chorus is that he is wrong. The reason for that is because the woman is asking for a man who will understand her and be what she needs but the man here is not doing so. He obviously understands what she wants because he is saying all the right things to her however when it comes to action he is not showing it. He is here for the fun and just to get his way by telling her everything she wants to hear but he doesn not want care about the future. She is wrong for believing in him however he is wrong is making her feel like he's being honest which is why she is wishing for a man who wouldnt do that to her.
I guess when I wrote the song I was thinking about the theme very lightly. It was in my highschool years and one of the many pointless things I wrote. I guess at that time I was not capable of thinkging about love and relationships deeply. When I read this last night it reminded me once again of the time I wrote it and like most of my writings it was done on a sleepless night when I couldnt make myself fall asleep. I changed a few things however decided to leave it as it was to maintain its authenticity.
Magic can never make a man, neither can we love someone for "eternity" or all the other illogical statements we make when concerning love or relationships, but we still do this because it sounds good to us and to who we say it to. I personally dont think many of our emotions can be portrayed through language as there are no words sometimes to express these feelings, hence we try to express it by stating things which we know are impossible yet something which best captures the meaning for particular situations.
Perfect Response
ReplyDeleteMeaningful, insightful, and thought provoking.
The words of the high school you will still resonate with many person, but the words that me and you share in believe will only resonate with the good hearted.
Thank you for being you!
