Puth initially signed with the record label eleveneleven after performing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, while songwriting and producing for other artists. With primary intent on a solo career, Atlantic Records and Artist Partner Group eventually sought the artist and released his debut single, "Marvin Gaye" (featuring Meghan Trainor), in 2015. His next single and first feature, "See You Again", which he co-wrote, co-produced, and performed with Atlantic label-mate Wiz Khalifa for the Furious 7 soundtrack as a tribute to actor Paul Walker. It peaked at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 for 12 non-consecutive weeks. After the success of "See You Again", he gained worldwide recognition for multiple subsequent releases, including his next single, "One Call Away". The single reached number 12 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Puth's debut studio album, Nine Track Mind, was released in January 2016 to moderate commercial success. The album was preceded by the singles "One Call Away" and "We Don't Talk Anymore" (featuring Selena Gomez), which peaked at number 12 and number 9 respectively on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2017, he released two songs, "Attention" and "How Long", with the former peaking at number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. Both were included on his second studio album, Voicenotes (2018), with ameliorated critical reception and a peak of number 4 on the Billboard 200. In 2019, Puth released the singles "I Warned Myself", "Mother" and "Cheating on You". The following year, Puth released singles "Girlfriend" and "Hard on Yourself". After deciding not to put these songs on his next album and scrapping what other songs he had written for it in early 2020, Puth released "Light Switch" in January 2022 as the lead single of his upcoming third studio album Charlie, which is scheduled for a 2022 release. "Light Switch" peaked at number 27 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album's second single, "That's Hilarious", was released in April 2022.
Look At Me Now
Charlie Puth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'ma be the one who do
Everything and more you said
I couldn't do
This one is for you
This time next year
I'm gonna be stronger
A little bit taller
I'm kickin' in the door now
Better get out my way
Never really saw me comin'
You're left with nothing to say
This for everybody
Who always put me down
I hope you open up your eyes
And take a good look at me now
Take a good look at me now
Take a good look at me now
'Cause this time next year
I'ma walk down these halls
And show my face for the world to see
Gonna see me
And I'ma call every girl that turned me down
And tell 'em now that
I'm just too busy
'Cause I don't have the time
And it's funny how my so-called friends
Who've always left me alone
Are suddenly running into me
And blowin' up my phone
I'm kickin' in the door now
Better get out my way
Never really saw me comin'
You left with nothing to say
This for everybody
Who always put me down
I hope you open up your eyes
And take a good look at me now
Take a good look at me now
Take a good look at me now
Oh baby
Take a good look at me now
Take a good look at me now
Take a good look at me now
Oh, look at me now
Woah, this one is dedicated
To all of the people
Who said I would be nothing
Just look at me now
Look at me now
Look at me now
I'm kickin' in the door now
Better get out my way
Never really saw me comin'
You left with nothing to say
This for everybody
Who always put me down
I hope you open up your eyes
And take a good look at me now
Take a good look at me now
Take a good look at me now
Take a good look at me now
Take a good look at me now

He's determined to be at the top of the game, taller and stronger than ever before, and he's not going to stop until he gets there.
In the second verse, Charlie is now reflecting on a point in his future career where he imagines walking down the halls and the whole world watching. He also pictures himself rejecting girls who once turned him down and telling them that he's too busy for them now. He finally mentions that even the people who always left him alone are now blowing up his phone.

When it comes to the flashback of charlie's old days when he started to play the piano and sing I really burst into tears, I saw a man who works hard and loves what he does and finally paid off for everything, Charlie is such a great and adorable human being, thanks for bringing to me so much inspiration and joy
@nusaybahasan5015
Yeah. Can u imagine the boy who used to make covers of other's songs and comedy videos is now a worldwide famous pop singer!!!! He's a very hard worker and he really worked hard to get whatever he has today. But according to my view, he's underrated. He deserves more than all these. I hope he gets everything he deserves. I loved him I love him and I will be loving him always even after my marriage 🤭🤭. He'll always be my first choice....
