What is the meaning of these sentences?

"I am done with the chase" [STRIKE]or[/STRIKE] and "I am done chasing you"?

Welcome to the forum. :hi:

Is it "I am done" that is confusing you?

 

[Tdol]

The speaker has lost interest in the other person.

 

[Dukul12345]

I know the meaning of "done with " but what is the meaning of chase here?

 

[Rover_KE]

In what context did you encounter these sentences?

 

[emsr2d2]

It could be literal or metaphorical. Only context will tell us.

When you ask us for help with the meaning of a sentence, please make it clear in post 1 which words/parts are confusing you.

 

[Tdol]

I guess it means trying to become romantically involved with the person, but we would need more context to be sure.

It's a lyrics from the song Prismo "Solo"" plz have a look..

[Intro]
Solo, oh oh, oh oh oh

[Verse 1]
I'm walking on fire
My debt isn't paid
I take myself higher
So I'm feeling okay
Look at me now
I'm done with the chase

[Pre-Chorus]
I taught myself how
Now I'm feeling okay (Solo, oh oh, oh oh oh)
I taught myself how
Now I'm feeling okay (Solo, oh oh, oh oh oh)

[Chorus]
I wanna take my time to make my decisions
Change my mind for no damn reason
I'm ridin' solo, oh oh
I'm feelin' solo, oh oh
Break me down, but I won't be imprisoned
I hold my ground 'til my heart stops beatin'
I'm ridin' solo, oh oh
I'm feelin' solo, oh oh

It's a [STRIKE]lyrics[/STRIKE] line/lyric from the song "Solo" by Prismo. [STRIKE]"Solo""[/STRIKE]

[STRIKE]plz[/STRIKE] Please have a look.

Please note my corrections above.

As is so often the case with song lyrics, it could mean any of the possible definitions. My best guess would be that the writer/singer has been chasing/pursuing someone in a romantic or sexual way. They want that other person to become their partner or lover. However, they have now given up chasing that person.
However, I can't pretend that there is anything specific in those other repetitive simplistic lyrics that would back that up.

You omitted some very important context. Here's a part from verse 2:

You tell me you need me
You tell me you want me
But you know I'm better off alone

The whole lyric is a celebration of the freedom that has come with the decision to be single (in the romantic sense). I'm done with the chase means 'I've had enough of trying to manage relationships with partners'. There may or may not be a specific person in mind, but it doesn't matter either way, I think.

Thanks sir �� You have described it succintly.

 

[GoesStation]

Thanks [STRIKE]sir[/STRIKE].

Don't address forum members whose gender you don't know as "sir".

Rather than making a new post, we ask members to click the "Thank" link in the bottom left-hand corner of a post you find helpful. It saves time.

 

[emsr2d2]

Don't address forum members whose gender you don't know as "sir".

And even if you do know they are male, it's unnecessarily formal to use "sir".

I see you are posting some of the same questions on another forum. [link] [link] [link]

We recommend posting a question on one forum only initially. If you do not get a satisfactory answer from that forum and you feel that you have exhausted its possibilities, then of course trying a different forum might help. It is only courteous however, to tell the second forum that you have already asked the question on another forum and then give a precis of the answers you received there, or provide a link to it, along with an explanation of why you are now looking elsewhere.

Please make sure you follow another important piece of advice - end every sentence with an appropriate punctuation mark. An emoji does not replace a final punctuation mark.
