What is the meaning of the song war by jay Sean?

Answer 1

It's about him leaving a girl he loves then finds out that she moved on and is now with another guy so now he wants to get her back. It's actually a metaphor. When there's a war obviously there's only one winner so his relating that metaphor in his situation. His fighting for his girl and he'll do anything to get her back "AND I WILL SHOW YOU VICTORY IS MINE BEFORE WE LEAVE THIS BATTLE-GROUND"

Answer 2

Poets' lyrics are always built that way, so everyone can find own meaning in them. In an interview 2012 Marko asked about "War" answered:

"The idea of the song is that if you have a falling out with someone, then you have to look at it like the falling out is happening to both people, not just you. And then try to see what you're fighting against, which isn't the other person, but the thing you're fighting about. And then, instead of fighting about it, you should ally yourself with that other person to fight that thing, together. "

But I personally would understand it differently. In the end, you need what this song means to you on your own.

Answer 3

The song is about a war that is being fought and the people affected by it...at the end of the song, the "war" is won.
