Myself
Houdini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wasn't asking nobody for help
She wanted me 'cause the name ringin' bells
(Myself)
(Wasn't asking for help)
('Cause my name rings a bell)
I don't need you, all I need is myself
She wanted me 'cause the name ringin' bells
Designer the jeans, so designer the belt
You whilin' on me, never nobody else
Got the bid on my apron, nobody could tell
Before I grew up, I just wanted to sell
I'm independent, I'm good by myself
I don't need you, all I need is myself
I wasn't asking nobody for help
She wanted me 'cause the name ringin' bells
Designer the jeans, so designer the belt
You whilin' on me, never nobody else
Got the bid on my apron, nobody could tell
Before I grew up, I just wanted to sell
I'm independent, I'm good by myself
You know the world that we livin' is hell (hell)
He hit a stain and the jewelry fell
Ridin' around and that lime with a girl
I cut her off, she was up in my cell
They was complaining my weed had a smell
I got 'em mad and they wanted to tell
This be the gas, not the one up at Shell
I'm in the G and I'm coolin wit' real
Grew up in the hood so I'm keepin' it real
Poppin' off bands and they wanted a feel
Free all my dawgs, couldn't get an appeal
Sippin' on Tec and it came in a seal
He in the hood and he don't got a steel
I got a box for a few of the steel
Wonderin' how I keep up with these mills
Wonderin' how I'ma get me a deal
I don't need you, all I need is myself
I wasn't asking nobody for help
She wanted me 'cause the name ringin' bells
Designer the jeans, so designer the belt
You whilin' on me, never nobody else
Got the bid on my apron, nobody could tell
Before I grew up, I just wanted to sell
I'm independent, I'm good by myself
I don't need you, all I need is myself
I wasn't asking nobody for help
She wanted me 'cause the name ringin' bells
Designer the jeans, so designer the belt
You whilin' on me, never nobody else
Got the bid on my apron, nobody could tell
Before I grew up, I just wanted to sell
I'm independent, I'm good by myself
I never asked for shit
Thought twice and I got it my own way
Movin' immaculate in this Off-White
Baby girl I ain't okay
Said if you need me, then call me
But don't need me too much
High speed with a cruiser
We ain't goin' to school with this ruler
Dippin' into my bag
Fuck 'bout the tag
Want it, I'm coppin' it
And I don't mean to brag
Came from the rag (straight to an audience)
Got a nigga so salty and
And I know it's my fault they mad
If a nigga want all it
Then we take all it
Yeah we want all of that
I don't need you, all I need is myself
I wasn't asking nobody for help
She wanted me 'cause the name ringin' bells
Designer the jeans, so designer the belt
You whilin' on me, never nobody else
Got the bid on my apron, nobody could tell
Before I grew up, I just wanted to sell
I'm independent, I'm good by myself
I don't need you, all I need is myself
I wasn't asking nobody for help
She wanted me 'cause the name ringin' bells
Designer the jeans, so designer the belt
You whilin' on me, never nobody else
Got the bid on my apron, nobody could tell
Before I grew up, I just wanted to sell
I'm independent, I'm good by myself
(Myself)
(Good by myself)
(Never needed your help)
The lyrics of Houdini's song "Myself" depict the importance of self-reliance and independence. The rapper emphasizes that he does not need anyone's help and is good by himself. He mentions that people are attracted to him because of his reputation and designer clothes. The lyrics also talk about his past struggles and his journey to success; he wanted to sell when he was growing up, but he is now good on his own.
The second half of the song is more focused on Houdini's current lifestyle and glorifies his expensive taste in clothes and vehicles. He talks about how he does not need to depend on anyone and can get what he wants on his own. He is also unapologetic about his wealth and the negative reactions of others. All in all, the lyrics of "Myself" celebrate self-made success and individuality.
