Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been on it for way too long
She been talking all that, bullshit, yeah, yeah
I've been living my life in vain
I've been doing this thang the same
Rollercoaster this ain't no dream
Oh no, no, I won't get high with you no more

She wanna be
On a magazine
On a movie screen
On a fuck machine
She wanna be
Everywhere you see
She wanna fill
The holes in her brassiere
Hole between her lips
I got hoes everywhere
I'm gon' fly you everywhere
We gon' fly private
I'm gon' fly you anywhere
Anything you want, baby
Anything you need
I got it for you

Oh
I heard about you from word of mouth
I seen that body from West, East to South
I know, what to say
I practiced in my mirror yesterday

She wanna be
On a magazine
On a movie screen
On a fuck machine
She wanna be
Everywhere you see
She wanna fill
The holes in her brassiere
Holes in her lips
I got hoes everywhere
I'm gon' fly you everywhere
We gon' fly private
We gon' fly anywhere, baby
Anywhere you want, baby
Anything you need
I got it for you

Ayy-ayy, I got it for you
My baby




I got it for you, I got it
I got it for you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Emanuel's song "Magazines" touch upon themes of materialism, objectification, and the desire for fame. The opening lines reflect on the singer's weariness with a certain lifestyle that has consumed him for too long. He feels as though he has been living in vain, going through the motions without finding a true sense of fulfillment. The mention of "talking all that bullshit" implies that he has grown tired of empty conversations and superficiality. This dissatisfaction is further emphasized by the line "Rollercoaster, this ain't no dream," suggesting that the ups and downs of this lifestyle are far from glamorous.


The chorus delves into the desires of a woman who wishes to be on a magazine cover, a movie screen, and be perceived as a sexual object ("on a fuck machine"). It portrays her longing for validation and recognition, seeking to be everywhere and fill the voids within her (symbolized by the "holes in her brassiere" and "holes in her lips"). The singer acknowledges that he has "hoes everywhere," suggesting a promiscuous lifestyle, but also professes his willingness to cater to the woman's every desire, offering her everything she wants and needs.


The lyrics also mention hearing about this woman through word of mouth, highlighting her reputation and the attention she commands. The line "I know what to say, I practiced in my mirror yesterday" suggests that the singer is aware of the routine he must follow to impress and engage with her, indicating an element of insincerity and manipulation.


Overall, "Magazines" explores the hollow pursuit of fame, the objectification of women, and the effects of a materialistic and superficial lifestyle.
