Not Over Yet Lyrics

It's not over yet Tell me why you startin' a fire? It's burnin' up in my head Why do I always tell myself that it's not over yet? Why you gotta tear my heart out? Leave me in the rain Why do I always tell myself that it's not over yet? When the light fades and the dawn breaks That's when it's hardest to fix it When you're lonely and your heart aches That's when you know what you're missin' Hold up, let me get my story straight It hit me like a tidal wave Won't you give me just another day To tell myself It's not over yet Tell me why you startin' a fire? It's burnin' up in my head Why do I always tell myself that it's not over yet? Why you gotta tear my heart out? Leave me in the rain Why do I always tell myself that It's not over yet? Yet-yet, yet-yet, yet-yet It's not over yet Show me where to look for a halo Oh, I'm sick and tired of the pain, so I don't wanna be the one to let go Oh, no But why is everybody tellin' me it's over? Tryna shut the voices out the gate and close up Help me stay alive just so I can show ya It's not over yet Tell me why you startin' a fire? It's burnin' up in my head Why do I always tell myself that it's not over yet? Why you gotta tear my heart out? Leave me in the rain Why do I always tell myself that It's not over yet? Yet-yet (Oh), yet-yet (Oh), yet-yet (Ooh) It's not over yet Tell me why you startin' a fire? It's burnin' up in my head Why do I always tell myself that it's not over yet?

Not Over Yet - English Translation

Aún no ha terminado Dime, ¿por qué enciendes el fuego? Arde en mi cabeza ¿Por qué siempre me digo que aún no ha terminado? ¿Por qué tienes que arrancarme el corazón? Déjame en la lluvia ¿Por qué siempre me digo que aún no ha terminado? Cuando la luz se desvanece y sale el alba Es entonces cuando es más difícil arreglarlo Cuando estás solo y tu corazón sufre Es cuando sabes lo que te falta Espera un momento, déjame aclarar mi historia Me golpeó como una ola ¿No me darás solo otro día Para decirme Aún no ha terminado Dime, ¿por qué enciendes el fuego? Arde en mi cabeza ¿Por qué siempre me digo que aún no ha terminado? ¿Por qué tienes que arrancarme el corazón? Déjame en la lluvia ¿Por qué siempre me digo que aún no ha terminado? Aún, aún, aún, aún Aún no ha terminado Muéstrame dónde buscar un halo Oh, estoy cansado de este dolor, así que No quiero ser yo quien se lo dé Oh, no Pero ¿por qué todos me dicen que ya ha terminado? Tratando de cerrar las voces en la puerta y cerrarla Ayúdame a estar vivo para poder mostrarte Aún no ha terminado Dime, ¿por qué enciendes el fuego? Arde en mi cabeza ¿Por qué siempre me digo que aún no ha terminado?

Meaning of Not Over Yet

“Not Over Yet” by KSI is a raw and intensely vulnerable exploration of heartbreak and the stubborn refusal to accept defeat, delivered with a rapid-fire flow characteristic of his style. At its core, the song’s theme revolves around the cyclical nature of denial and the desperate clinging to hope in the face of overwhelming pain – specifically, the aftermath of a relationship’s collapse. The narrative unfolds as a frantic internal monologue, driven by KSI’s insistent repetition of “It’s not over yet,” which quickly becomes more than just a phrase; it transforms into a shield against the brutal reality of loss. The imagery employed is deliberately jarring and visceral: the ‘fire’ ignited by the ex-partner represents the destructive force of betrayal and emotional turmoil, while being 'left in the rain' symbolizes abandonment and isolation. The “tidal wave” metaphor underscores the suddenness and devastating impact of the breakup, overwhelming the narrator with grief. KSI masterfully utilizes a conversational tone, mirroring the fragmented thoughts and desperate pleas one might experience when grappling with heartbreak – "Why you gotta tear my heart out?" is a quintessential example of this direct, almost accusatory, vulnerability. The repeated “yet-yet” isn’t simply a stylistic flourish; it represents the obsessive, almost self-destructive, nature of clinging to a fading dream. It's a desperate attempt to rewrite the narrative and defy the perceived finality of the situation. KSI subtly critiques external influences – "everybody tellin' me it's over" - highlighting the pressure to move on while simultaneously battling his own internal resistance. The plea for “another day” speaks to the need for time, not necessarily to heal, but to continue fighting against the inevitable. The yearning for a "halo," a symbol of redemption or a fresh start, suggests a deep desire for forgiveness and a chance to rebuild. Ultimately, KSI’s message is one of defiant resilience; it's about refusing to surrender to despair, even when logic dictates otherwise. The song isn't necessarily advocating for reconciliation but rather embodying the powerful impulse within us all – the stubborn refusal to concede that something beautiful or meaningful has truly ended.
