Rema Calm Down Lyrics Meaning
Here is Calm Down Lyrics Meaning Rema ft Selena Gomez
Calm Down Lyrics Meaning
“Calm downâ is a song about Rema- or the singerâs persona in this case, seeking a ladyâs love interest. However, the issue here is trust- Which the lady believes Rema does not possess. Therefore, Rema implores her to âCalm Downâ and listen to him.
On âCalm downâ, Rema tries to allay her fears by telling her that she should âCalm downâ and not feel all âInsecureâ because:
âIf I tell you say I love you, no dey do iyangaâ
On âCalm downâ, Rema expresses that he loves the girl in question and that he wants her. He uses descriptive lyrics to explain how desirable her body is and how he wants it no matter what because he canât get his mind off her.
He even says he canât take a ânoâ from her.
Therefore, it may be right for her to not express so much trust in Rema since her body is his attraction. Which means if he sees another lady with better âqualitiesâ, he would âfallâ in love with her too.
He says the ladyâs body puts him on âLockdownâ because he canât do anything else but think of her- or her body in this case.
Calm down lyrics meaning shows it is a relatable song because it happens that what most guys observe first before even seeing a ladyâs character is her body.
It is the point of attraction for most guys, and in âCalm downâ, Rema asserts it is what has put him on âLockdownâ.
Being on âLockdownâ is the default for most guys when they want a lady. They can never âCalm downâ while showing the lady that they desire her so much. So yes, Remaâs âCalm downâ is very relatable.
Meanwhile, in Remaâs defense, the lady should âCalm downâ and trust him because there are actually more girls who want him but he doesnât like them like he does the girl. He says:
âIf you leave me, I no go fall in love againâ

Storytelling {Calm Down Lyrics Meaning}
Calm Down Lyrics Meaning shows how Rema employs storytelling to get us interested in the song. He even discusses how he met her in a party and apart from her body, he says her character of being âMellowâ rather than other girls doing âtoo muchâ is what attracts him.
He says âother girls commot like chewing gumâ but the girl is permanent.
This storytelling plot on Calm down lyrics meaning makes the song hold you down till it ends. If Rema did something else other than this on âCalm downâ.
âCalm downâ would have been a boring listen. But the storytelling makes it an intriguing one.
Delivery {Rema and Selena Gomez}
Both Rema and Selena Gomez delivered a bop!
I mean, apart from the fact that Selena Gomezâs voice is so angelic, her verse on Calm Down is so thrilling that we want to hear more of her.
Flaw(s)
The only thing that seems like a flaw with Remaâs âCalm downâ is incomplete storytelling. Rema tells us literally everything about the wooing process, he even gets detailed to you the point of telling us her dress color- Yellow.
However, at the end of âCalm downâ, we are not told if she agreed or not. Did she agree or decline Remaâs love interest? Did Rema get over his supposed lockdown? Our questions on the song are unanswered.
But then that’s the whole point of the song. It’s a proposal
