Because I'm trying to do the best I can

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of "Bloodline" by Ariana Grande seem to indicate the struggle of the singer to find satisfaction in her life. She tries her best, but nothing seems to work. The second verse gives an insight into a toxic and casual relationship where she is aware that the person is not right for her, but she continues to think about them. She wants to have a good time but is not willing to take it any further. The chorus reinforces this idea of not wanting to get too involved in a toxic and dangerous relationship. She wants to enjoy time with the person but does not want them in her bloodline, indicating a reluctance to form a deeper relationship.


The next verse talks about the singer's unwillingness to invest herself emotionally, recognizing that there are no real prospects of a future with the person. She is not searching for her one true love, knowing that it is unlikely to occur with this particular person. The last verse suggests that the singer understands what the other person wants from her but knows that she cannot give it to him, indicating that she is unwilling to connect with him on a deeper level. The song's overall message is that the singer wants to have a good time but does not want to become invested in a potential relationship that could become toxic and unhealthy.
