Hot Like Fire

Aaliyah

One, two
Check out how we do
One, two

I'ma make it hot like fire
I'ma make it hot like fire
I'ma make it hot like fire

Your hotter than a summer day in California
You got me melting like a sundae and I want ya
I know you've been waiting
you've been waiting a long time for me (for me)
But if you wait a little while longer this is how it be

Oh, it's gonna be
Hot like fire
I'm gonna take you
Take you higher (no, you)
You can't resist (when me and you)
Kiss, kiss, and kiss and kiss and kiss

You shouldn't rush it, take our time
I'll let you know when I'm ready if that's alright
I won't keep you, I won't keep you
I won't keep you holding on (holding on)
But if you wait on me, I promise you it won't be long

Oh, it's gonna be
Hot like fire
I'm gonna take you
Take you higher (you won't)
You can't resist (oh no)
Kiss, kiss, and kiss and kiss and kiss

I'm gonna make it
Hot like (like) fire
And I'm gonna take you
Take (baby) you higher
(No, you won't resist, oh-no-no-no)
You can't resist (when me and you)
Kiss, kiss, and kiss, and kiss, and kiss

Baby, take your time
Take your time, don't move too fast (no, no, no)
Take your time, there's no rushing babe, no, no, no
Take your time (whoa, take your time)
Take your time
I'm gonna make it all good for you, baby

Hot like fire
And I'm gonna take you
Take you higher
No, no, no, you won't resist
You can't resist (when I taste your lips)
Kiss, kiss, and kiss and kiss and kiss (your sweet lips, baby)

Hot like fire (oh-no-no-no)
Take you higher (oh-no-no-no)
You can't resist (oh-no-no-no)
Kiss, kiss, and kiss and kiss and kiss (oh-no-no-no)

Ah, c'mon can you feel us?
Ah, c'mon can you feel us? (Ba-baby)
C'mon can you feel us?
Ah, c'mon can you feel us? (Ba-baby)
Ah, c'mon can you feel us? What?
Ah, c'mon can you feel us? (Ba-baby)
C'mon can you feel us?
Huh, we're gonna make it hot, baby (ba-baby)
(Ba-baby)
(Ba-baby)

    It's about delayed gratification. And this song is as hot as the title, in every sense of the word "hot".

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
