Am I Wrong
Camila Cabello & Nicholas Galitzine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For thinking out the box from where I stay?
Uh, am I wrong
For saying that I choose another way?
Oh, I ain't tryna do what everybody else doin'
Just 'cause everybody doin' what they all do
If one thing I know, I'll fall, but I grow
So am I wrong?
For thinking that we could be something for real? (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh)
But no, no, no that's wrong
Now am I wrong
For tryna reach the things that I can't see? (Ow)
Oh, that's just how I feel (ooh, ooh, ooh)
That's just how I feel (ooh, ooh, ooh))
That's just how I feel
Tryna reach the things that I can't see (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Am I trippin'?
Am I? For having a vision?
My prediction
I'ma be on the top of the world
Hope you, hope you don't look back
Always do what you decide
Don't let them control your life, that's just how I feel (oh, oh, oh)
Fight for yours and don't let go
Don't let them compare you, no
Don't worry, you're not alone, that's just how I feel (that's just how we feel)
That's just how I feel
If you tell me I'm wrong, wrong
I don't wanna be right, right
If you tell me I'm wrong, wrong
I don't wanna be right (i don't wanna be right)
I don't wanna be right
(Oh, if you tell me I'm wrong, wrong
(If you tell me I'm wrong, wrong) if you tell me I'm wrong
I don't wanna be right, right (i don't wanna be, wanna be right)
If you tell me I'm wrong, wrong (don't tell me I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm wrong)
I don't wanna be right
Am I wrong? (Am I wrong?)
For thinking that we could be something for real? (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh)
For real, for real
Now am I wrong? (Am I wrong? Am I wrong?)
For tryna reach the things that I can't see? (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh)
That's just how I feel (how I feel, how I feel)
Yeah, that's just how I feel (how I feel, how I feel)
That's just how I feel
Tryna reach the things that I can't see (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Am I wrong?
For thinking that we could be something for real? Oh
Now am I wrong?
For tryna reach the things that I can't see?
In "1 1", Camila Cabello questions societal norms and expectations. In the first verse, she asks if it is wrong for her to think outside the box and choose a different path than others. She emphasizes that she is not trying to follow what everyone else is doing, but instead going down her own road that she calls "home." In the chorus, Camila questions if it is wrong for her to believe in real and genuine connections with people, even if it means reaching for things that aren't visible. She acknowledges that others may not understand her vision, but it is just how she feels.
In the following verse, Camila again questions if she is wrong for having a vision and aiming to be at the top of the world. She encourages listeners to make their own decisions and not let others control their lives. The second chorus and outro repeat the themes of the first, encouraging listeners to fight for what they believe in and not let anyone compare them to others.
The song is an anthem for individualism, self-expression, and following one's own dreams despite societal pressure. It inspires listeners to pursue their passions and relationships that are meaningful and genuine, even if they may not be immediately visible.
