Part Of Me
J.M.B. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just makes me want to go for a drive you know
Yeah well
Part of me thinks
I should roam through trees
With bare feet
While the other part wants to be
Doing one fifty
In a motherfucking AMG
Welp
The only way for me to know
For show
Is to try out both paths
To see which road
I want to go
And maybe I'll change my mind
But for now I like adrenaline
It keeps my heart
Pumping hard
Like it's an amphetamine
Makes me feel alive
Instead of dead
Unlike a sedative
This motion is my medicine
And music is my fetish
I can't stay still for too long
No I can't control this restlessness
I need to take a little self care
And have some selfishness
Cause part of me thinks
I should roam through the trees
With bare feet
While the other part
Wants to be doing one sixty
On the freeway In a motherfuckin
Ferrari
Yeah part of me thinks
I should live in peace
Like a hippy
While the other part
Wants to be doing one seventy
On the freeway In a motherfucking Lamborghini
I ate a mushroom
In my youth
That showed me things I never knew
Like if you don't try to move
Then your ass will get consumed
So I amped it up plus two
Added fuel
Began to Cruze
Put that peddle to the metal
Man I swear I coulda flew
All the way up to the moon
And back don't smoke crack
But feel juiced
I refuse to watch the news
Cause I'd rather watch the views
Walk the opposite of masses
Cause I'd rather seek some truth
Couple people throwing shade
But I got too much light to lose
Charleston chew up in my mouth
As I vibe out by the pool
Soak up all that suns energy
So hot I can't be cooled
A margarita in my hand
Because fuck a Moscow mule
I'm singing
Part of me thinks
I should roam through the trees
With bare feet
While the other part
Wants to be doing one eighty
On the freeway In a motherfuckin
GT3
Yeah part of me thinks
I should live in peace
Like a hippy
While the other part
Wants to be doing one ninety
On the freeway in a motherfucking
Bugatti
Yeah
The lyrics to J.M.B.'s song "Part of Me" illustrate a conflict within the artist, between two opposing desires for movement and stillness, excitement and peace. The artist seems to be enjoying a sunny day and feeling energized by the world around them, yet is torn between two paths. One part of them wants to be barefoot, wandering through the peaceful tranquility of nature, while the other part craves the thrill of speeding down the freeway in a luxurious car. The artist sees both sides, recognizing the need for both self-care and a bit of selfishness to find balance. They relate their love of movement and adrenaline to the high induced by music, which they call their "fetish," and use it as a medicine to keep them feeling alive. The lyrics end with the artist feeling happy, empowered, and enjoying a margarita in the sun.

God I love it when it's nice outside
I enjoy good weather
Just makes me want to go for a drive you know
Nice weather makes me want to drive
Part of me thinks I should roam through trees with bare feet
A part of me wants to connect to nature
While the other part wants to be doing one fifty on the freeway in a motherfucking AMG
Another part of me wants to feel the adrenaline of fast driving
The only way for me to know for show is to try out both paths to see which road I want to go
I need to try different things to see what works best for me
And maybe I'll change my mind but for now I like adrenaline
My preferences might change, but I currently enjoy the rush of adrenaline
It keeps my heart pumping hard like it's an amphetamine
Adrenaline makes me feel alive and energized
Makes me feel alive instead of dead unlike a sedative
Adrenaline makes me feel awake, unlike a sedative which makes me feel sluggish
This motion is my medicine and music is my fetish
Driving and music are therapeutic for me
I can't stay still for too long No I can't control this restlessness
I have a restless nature and cannot stay still for long
I need to take a little self care and have some selfishness
I need to prioritize my own needs sometimes
Cause part of me thinks I should roam through the trees with bare feet while the other part wants to be doing one sixty on the freeway In a motherfuckin Ferrari
Part of me wants to connect with nature, while another part wants to experience fast driving in a luxurious car
I ate a mushroom in my youth that showed me things I never knew like if you don't try to move then your ass will get consumed
I had a psychedelic experience that taught me that I need to keep moving and trying new things
So I amped it up plus two added fuel began to Cruze put that peddle to the metal man I swear I coulda flew
I pushed myself to go faster and experience more adrenaline
All the way up to the moon and back don't smoke crack but feel juiced
I felt stimulated and energized, but without the negative effects of drugs
I refuse to watch the news cause I'd rather watch the views Walk the opposite of masses cause I'd rather seek some truth
I don't like watching the news, and I prefer to form my own opinions by seeking out different perspectives
Couple people throwing shade but I got too much light to lose
Some people are negative towards me, but I choose not to let it affect me
Charleston chew up in my mouth as I vibe out by the pool Soak up all that suns energy So hot I can't be cooled A margarita in my hand Because fuck a Moscow mule
I'm enjoying my time by the pool with good food and drinks
Yeah part of me thinks I should roam through the trees with bare feet while the other part wants to be doing one eighty on the freeway In a motherfuckin GT3 Yeah part of me thinks I should live in peace like a hippy while the other part wants to be doing one ninety on the freeway in a motherfucking Bugatti
I still have conflicting desires to connect with nature and experience high-speed driving in different luxurious cars
