The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Same Old Song" by the artist "Weeknd, The"

In "Same Old Song," The Weeknd sings about an ex-girlfriend who left him before he found fame.

The first verse starts with a reproach: where was she eight months ago when he needed her? Now that he's famous, she calls him, urged by her friends. The Weeknd is sure she regrets her decision, as she would gladly kiss him now. He sarcastically remarks that this is only the beginning of his journey, and he will achieve even greater heights.

The chorus repeats the phrase "You're like the same old song," which symbolizes the predictability and monotony of his ex-girlfriend's behavior. She acts the same way she did before, despite the changes in his life.

The second verse emphasizes The Weeknd's success. He is rich, has made big deals, and now she is trying to come back. He bitterly recalls their relationship, assuming that while he loved her, she cheated on him. The Weeknd cynically suggests she "down another shot" every time his song plays in the club.

Juicy J's verse doesn't directly relate to The Weeknd's story but adds to the song's atmosphere by boasting about wealth and a lavish lifestyle.

[Verse 1: The Weeknd]

Where were you when I needed you eight months ago?

All your girlfriends talkin' ‘bout me,

Now you ringin' up my phone.

Bet you miss me now, baby,

Bet you'd kiss me now, baby,

Especially, since you know

That this ain't nothin' and I only just begun.

[Bridge:]

You never thought that I would ever go this far,

You said, potential could never

Last this long.

Well, baby, I've been alone for almost all my life,

What makes you think that you could ever do me right.

[Hook:]

You're the same old song.

You're the same old song.

You're the same old song.

You're the same old song.

The same old song.

[Verse 2: The Weeknd]

And now I'm poppin', yea!

Ain't nobody showed me how,

I made it big poppin', yeah!

Tell me how you like me now.

I swear, I loved you girl,

And you probably went

And fucked the world.

Well, you can take another shot

Everytime you hear me playin' in the club.

[Bridge]

[Hook]

[Juicy J:]

Listen to that shit, man,

The Weeknd music make the ladies panties get wet!

Jam that shit, my nga!

I'm high as a motherfucker,

I don't give a shit!

I'm going to the strip club,

I'm throwing 30 thousand dollars, nga, 30 thousand!

Fuck that shit!

Spend that shit nga, it's Christmas!

Shut the fuck up!

We trippy, mane!
