F.U.S.S.
Christina Aguilera Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This is for you
Hm, yeah, oh, yeah, oh
I thought I knew who you were
I see now you were a lesson to learn
And all I am to you now is a bridge that's been burned
I made you part of my musical dream
And your thanks to me came without an apology, yeah
We wrote "Loving Me 4 Me" don't walk away
"Can't Hold Us Down" all part of our history
Don't forget Infatuation "I'm a Fighter"
Feeling under appreciated
Yeah, this song is for you, to remind you
That I moved on, sang my songs
I've got no regrets
Mm, oh
Hope it all was worth it, uh
Looks like I didn't need you
Still got the album out
Ha
In the song F.U.S.S., Christina Aguilera expresses her resentment towards someone who she once thought highly of. She starts by addressing the person directly, stating that this song is for them. She then reflects on how she believed she knew this person, only to realize they were just a lesson to learn. The person she is referring to has evidently hurt her in some way, causing her to feel like a bridge that's been burned. Despite this, at one point, Christina believed in this person wholeheartedly and even included them in her musical dream. However, the appreciation she deserved was never given, and instead, she was left feeling undervalued and underappreciated.
As the song progresses, Christina reminds the person of their past collaborations and all the work they did together, making sure they don't forget their history together. She then asserts that the song is a message to them, to remind them that she has moved on and has no regrets. The song serves as a testament to the fact that Christina Aguilera is independent and has survived without the help of the person she is directing the song to.
