The song ‘Not Me’ by F.A.M. depicts a man’s yearning for a certain woman, and his desperation for her to come to his place, even if her initial plans fall through. The lyrics suggest that the man and the woman have a complicated past as the woman only calls him when her partner is away, and their sex life is good, even though she hates him. The song displays the man’s desire for the woman to give him a chance, and his impatience with her to make up her mind about coming over. He reinforces that even if her plans change and she doesn’t want to spend time with him, he won’t be hurt as he understands that it's not him, but rather her hesitance. Throughout the song, F.A.M. sings about the woman’s physical attraction to him and his repeated invites to come over, framing his emotions and the subtext of the song.
The lyrics of “Not Me” suggest that the singer is not looking for a serious relationship, but rather a casual encounter with someone he is sexually attracted to. The song also portrays the singer’s impatience with the woman's indecisiveness and his readiness to move on, indicating that he is only interested in someone who is willing to commit to him. The references to Tamil and Jamaican cultures give the song a unique flare, and the repetitive nature of the chorus emphasizes the singer’s need for the woman to come to him.
