Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know I'm-a cut right to the chase, huh
Some women were made
But me, myself
I like to think that I was created
For a special purpose
You know?
What's more special than you?
It's on baby, let's get lost
You don't need to call in to work 'cause you the boss
For real, want you to show me how you feel
I consider myself lucky that's a big deal
Why?
Well, you got the key to my heart
But you ain't gon' need it
I'd rather you open up my body
And show me secrets you didn't know was inside
No need for me to lie
It's too big (big)
It's too wide (wide)
It's too strong (strong)
It won't fit (fit)
It's too much (much)
It's too tough (tough)
He talk like this 'cause he can back it up
He got a big ego
Such a huge ego
I love his big ego
It's too much
He walk like this 'cause he can back it up
Usually I'm humble
Right now I don't choose
You can leave with me
Or you could have the blues
Some call it arrogant
I call it confident
You decide when you find
Out what I'm working with
Damn, I know I'm killing you with them legs
Better yet, them thighs
Matter of fact it's my smile or maybe my eyes
Boy, you're a sight to see, kinda something like me
It's too big (big)
It's too wide (wide)
It's too strong (strong)
It won't fit (fit)
It's too much (much)
It's too tough (tough)
I talk like this 'cause I can back it up
I got a big ego
Such a huge ego
But he love my big ego
It's too much
I walk like this 'cause I can back it up
I, I walk like this 'cause I can back it up
I, I talk like this 'cause I can back it up
I, I, I can back it up
I can back it up
I walk like this 'cause I can back it up
It's too big (big)
It's too wide (wide)
It's too strong (strong)
It won't fit (fit)
It's too much (much)
It's too tough (tough)
He talk like this 'cause he can back it up
He got a big ego
Such a huge ego, such a huge ego
But I love his big ego
It's too much
He walk like this 'cause he can back it up
Ego so big you must admit
I got every reason to feel like I'm that bitch
Ego so strong, if you ain't know
I don't need no beat I can sing it with piano
The song 'Ego' by Beyoncé is an intriguing blend of sensuality, empowerment and confidence. The lyrics begin with a sense of flirtation, as Beyoncé addresses her lover, teasingly asking how they're doing and then diving straight into the nature of her creation, stating that she was made for something special, but that her lover is the most special of all. This sets up a bold and confident tone for the rest of the song, as she insists that her lover doesn't need to go to work because they're the boss, and demands that they show her how they feel. Beyoncé asserts that her lover has the "key to [her] heart," but she's more interested in having them open up her body to discover the secrets inside.
The chorus of the song is especially catchy, with Beyoncé repeating the lines, "He got a big ego, such a huge ego, but I love his big ego, it's too much." The song is essentially an ode to her lover's confidence and self-assuredness, with Beyoncé stating that while some might call it arrogance, she sees it as pure confidence. The bridge of the song is especially powerful, with Beyoncé asserting that her ego is so big that she can sing without any instrumental backing.
All in all, 'Ego' is a playful, confident and sensual song that showcases Beyoncé's vocal talents, her fierce sense of empowerment and her ability to blend flirtation and confidence in a unique and intriguing way.
