I Guess (feat. PLAYYARD)

Saint Levant's song 'I Guess (feat. PLAYYARD)' delves into the complexities of a romantic relationship marked by uncertainty and introspection. The lyrics reveal a narrative where the protagonist is grappling with mixed signals and emotional turmoil. The repeated line, 'I know you've been thinking of us while you living it up,' suggests a sense of longing and confusion. The protagonist feels that their partner is enjoying life but still has lingering thoughts about their relationship, creating a paradox of emotions.

The chorus, 'I guess you know it all, don't you, baby? I guess that I don't know shit,' highlights a feeling of inadequacy and self-doubt. This line captures the essence of the song, where the protagonist feels overshadowed by their partner's perceived confidence and knowledge. The use of explicit language and intimate imagery, such as 'I like the way you look in my eyes and say: I want you inside me,' adds a raw and vulnerable layer to the song, emphasizing the deep emotional and physical connection between the two.

The inclusion of Arabic phrases like 'ba'leha baby ala mahelak' and 'bas wa7yat 2ommi ana fahemak' adds a cultural dimension to the song, reflecting Saint Levant's diverse background and the fusion of different influences in his music. These lines, which translate to 'take it easy, baby, I understand you,' further underscore the theme of understanding and empathy in the relationship. The song's bridge, where the protagonist reflects on their past and the journey they've been on, adds a nostalgic and introspective touch, making 'I Guess' a multifaceted exploration of love, doubt, and self-awareness.
