human
Ari Gold feat. Mr. Man Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm only human
I'm only, I'm only
I'm only human, human

Maybe I'm foolish
Maybe I'm blind
Thinkin' I can see through this
And see what's behind
Got no way to prove it
So maybe I'm lyin'

But I'm only human after all
I'm only human after all
Don't put your blame on me
Don't put your blame on me

Take a look in the mirror
And what do you see?
Do you see it clearer
Or are you deceived
In what you believe?

'Cause I'm only human after all
You're only human after all
Don't put the blame on me
Don't put your blame on me

Some people got the real problems
Some people out of luck
Some people think I can solve them
Lord, heavens above
I'm only human after all
I'm only human after all
Don't put the blame on me
Don't put the blame on me

Don't ask my opinion
Don't ask me to lie
Then beg for forgiveness
For making you cry
For making you cry

'Cause I'm only human after all
I'm only human after all
Don't put your blame on me
Don't put the blame on me

Oh, some people got the real problems
Some people out of luck
Some people think I can solve them
Lord, heavens above
I'm only human after all
I'm only human after all
Don't put the blame on me
Don't put the blame on me
I'm only human
I make mistakes
I'm only human
That's all it takes
To put the blame on me
Don't put the blame on me

'Cause I'm no prophet or Messiah
You should go looking somewhere higher

I'm only human after all
I'm only human after all
Don't put the blame on me
Don't put the blame on me
I'm only human
I do what I can
I'm just a man
I do what I can




Don't put the blame on me
Don't put your blame on me

It is a song that recognizes one's flaws, limitations, and vulnerabilities as a human being. The opening lines of the song, "I'm only human, I'm only, I'm only, I'm only human, human" create a sense of transparency and honesty. The singer admits to being a mere mortal who has his own share of mistakes and weaknesses. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I'm only human after all" as a way of emphasizing that the singer has limitations and should not be held to standards that are unrealistic.


The song also cautions against judging others and making unreasonable demands of them. The line "Some people think I can solve them, Lord heavens above" suggests that people sometimes see others as a solution to their problems.

Beauty and exceptional talent is vulnerable. So sad.
I first saw his ‘coming out’ story on ‘I’m from Driftwood’ 3 years ago. Amazing that that sensitive quiet cute young man is the same as this Hot sexy pop singer and performer.
Wonderful. Terrible he died.

Erica Kane

RIP ARI
