The meaning of the lyrics of the song "The Way You Got Me" by the artist "TomiLove"

In "The Way You Got Me," artist TomiLove sings about an all-consuming and intoxicating love that, despite being problematic, becomes salvation and the meaning of life.

The lyrics are structured as an address from the speaker to their lover. They describe their lover's daily life filled with digital entertainment: listening to music, watching shows, scrolling through social media. The speaker emphasizes their omnipresence in their lover's life: they are present in their online world ("I'm in your streams, I'm in your dreams") and also in reality ("I see you on the street, oh yeah?"). The image of a "flyer" reinforces the intrusiveness and flashiness of their image, constantly flashing before their lover's eyes.

Despite recognizing themselves as "the reason for the problem," the speaker's love is a liberating and transformative force ("Love has always set my heart free"). It changes their appearance, leads them "through the ruins," and ultimately saves them. The lover, unknowingly, becomes a savior, giving meaning and direction to their life.

Vivid imagery ("All days like Groundhog Day," "My beat turns you on"), repetition ("That's how you save me"), and a catchy chorus create a feeling of obsession that conveys the feeling of all-consuming love.
