I am not a woman I'm a God
Halsey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(I am not a martyr, I'm a problem)
(I am not a legend, I'm a fraud)
(Keep your heart, 'cause I already)
Every day I've got a smile where my frown goes
A couple bodies in the garden where the grass grows
I take 'em with me to the grave in a suitcase
Oh
I just wanna feel something, tell me where to go
'Cause everybody knows something I don't wanna know
So I'll stay right here 'cause I'm better all alone
Yeah, I'm better all alone
I am not a woman, I'm a God
I am not a martyr, I'm a problem
I am not a legend, I'm a fraud
So keep your heart, 'cause I already got one
I am not a woman, I'm a God
I am not a martyr, I'm a problem
I am not a legend, I'm a fraud
Keep your heart, 'cause I already
Every morning, got a hollow where my heart goes
I never listen, but I see you with my eyes closed
I know you, I remember from the grass stain
Maybe I could be a better human with a new name
Oh
I just wanna feel something, tell me where to go
'Cause everybody knows something I don't wanna know
So, I'll stay right here cause I'm better all alone
Yeah, I'm better all alone
I am not a woman, I'm a God
I am not a martyr, I'm a problem
I am not a legend, I'm a fraud
So keep your heart, 'cause I already got one
I am not a woman, I'm a God
I am not a martyr, I'm a problem
I am not a legend, I'm a fraud
Keep your heart, 'cause I already
I'm ready to leave it
I'll go when I feel it
Got caught both hands on the smoking gun
I try, but I need it
It's hard, but I feel it
And it really does hurt when you love someone
Oh
I just wanna feel something, tell me where to go
'Cause everybody knows something I don't wanna know
So I'll stay right here 'cause I'm better all alone
Yeah, I'm better all alone
I am not a woman, I'm a God
I am not a martyr, I'm a problem
I am not a legend, I'm a fraud
So keep your heart, 'cause I already got one
I am not a woman, I'm a God
I am not a martyr, I'm a problem
I am not a legend, I'm a fraud
Keep your heart, 'cause I already got one
Halsey's song "I am not a woman, I'm a God" is about embracing oneself for who they are, even if it means going against societal expectations. The song highlights the singer's desire to be free from societal norms and her willingness to take control of her life. In the chorus, Halsey declares that she is not a woman, but rather a god - this is a metaphor for her wanting to be empowered and take charge of her life. She goes on to mention that she is not a martyr or legend but is a problem, which can be interpreted as Halsey recognizing that while she may not fit into traditional labels, she is still important and valuable.
The verses of the song focus on Halsey's introspective nature, describing her as disconnected from her emotions as she goes through the motions of daily life. The line "Every day I've got a smile where my frown goes" suggests that Halsey is putting on a front to conceal what she truly feels. The song touches on themes of alienation and belonging, as Halsey sings about feeling like an outsider and wanting to escape to a new place where she can be herself.
Overall, "I am not a woman, I'm a God" is a powerful anthem that encourages listeners to be true to themselves and embrace their individuality. It's a song about breaking free from societal norms and finding the strength to carve out a path for oneself.

Oh, I just wanna feel something, tell me where to go
I crave a sense of purpose, but struggle to find it
'Cause everybody knows something I don't wanna know
I am resistant to societal norms and expectations

Hope you like it !
@rebeccabollea8198
My mother told me that when she was pregnant she felt like a goddess, Mother Mary, A GOD. The power of creating a life. I think this is what Halsey talks about.
@Lexandjim
I disagree....I think this young artist who is quite beautiful, truly believes she is a god....or is singing it like an affirmation to boost her belief of that.....it's sad to me....but then I am old & of course, think that the music of my youth was much better!!! 😉😄
@livthelifeuluv6879
I mean idk. The music video shows complete different. Satanic almost
@WhatAboutRC
@Alexis Smith-Twiford So of all the stuff she describes and talks about in this song, you really just heard one thing? How you made it to be old is a marvel. Of course, you just have to find something to not like the song though. Be a shame if you actually liked something outside your box. You arent even sad. its pathetic. Always have to find something about someone to hate just so you can try and make the things in your past great again.
